We revisit classical sieves for computing primes and analyze their performance in the external-memory model. Most prior sieves are analyzed in the RAM model, where the focus is on minimizing both the total number of operations and the size of the working set. The hope is that if the working set fits in RAM, then the sieve will have good I/O performance, though such an outcome is by no means gua...

Hot working condition is the integration result among temperature, humidity, velocity of air movement, and hot radiation from the body's workers, which causes the decrease of systol-icblood pressure withits complication (1). The kitchen is a place with hot working condition because there is process of cooking using the instruments producing hot radiation making the space of kitchen to be hot. A...

BACKGROUND System approaches, such as improving working conditions, have been advocated to improve patient safety. However, the independent effect of many working condition variables on patient outcomes is unknown. OBJECTIVE To examine effects of a comprehensive set of working conditions on elderly patient safety outcomes in intensive care units. DESIGN Observational study, with patient out...

Attention is acknowledged as an important factor in the modulation of pain. A recent model proposed that an effective control of pain by attention should not only involve the disengagement of selective attention away from nociceptive stimuli, but should also guarantee that attention is maintained on the processing of pain-unrelated information without being recaptured by the nociceptive stimuli...

Working memory and attention interact in a way that enables us to focus on relevant items and maintain current goals. The influence of working memory on attention has been noted in several studies using dual task designs. Multitasking increases the demands on working memory and reduces the amount of resources available for cognitive control functions such as resolving stimulus conflict. However...

The delayed delivery of the AIRBUS A380© demonstrates the challenges to be faced in the field of cross-company collaboration today. On the one hand, available CWE platforms are used insufficiently. On the other hand, they do not yet support collaboration in a completely adequate way. This paper illustrates the current state of CWE practice by way of a sample company, its internal and external c...

To achieve higher efficiency target of the advanced turbine systems, the closed-loop steam cooling scheme is employed to cool the airfoil. It is proven from the experimental results at laboratory working conditions that injecting mist into steam can significantly augment the heat transfer in the turbine blades with several fundamental studies. The mist cooling technique has to be tested at gas ...

In order to further improve the whole vehicle economy of a novel plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV), considering two main factors, which are the driving working conditions and the driving distance, influencing the whole vehicle economy, a control strategy based on fuzzy self-adaptive online recognition is provided. A fuzzy working condition recognition algorithm is designed to online recogn...

Multiword expressions (MWEs) are linguistic objects containing two or more words and showing idiosyncratic behavior at different levels. Treebanks with annotated MWEs enable studies of such properties, as well as training and evaluation of MWE-aware parsers. However, few treebanks contain full-fledged MWE annotations. We show how this gap can be bridged in Polish by projecting 3 MWE resources o...
