We present an architecture for split-trust browsing: a technique that enables web applications to split their HTML across a pair of browsers—one untrusted browser running on a PC and one trusted browser running on a user’s personal device. Information entered via the personal device’s keypad cannot be read by the PC, thwarting PC-based keyloggers. Similarly, information displayed on the persona...

In a number of observed procurements, the buyer has employed an auction format that allows for a split-award outcome. We focus on settings where the range of uncertainty regarding scale economies is large and, depending on cost realizations, the efficient allocations include split-award outcomes as well as sole-source outcomes (one active supplier). We examine the price performance and efficien...

In this paper, we discuss an extension of split cuts that is based on widening the underlying disjunctions. That the formula for deriving intersection cuts based on splits can be adapted to this case has been known for a decade now. For the first time though, we present applications and computational results. We further discuss extensions of the existing theory with respect to cut strengthening...

in order to evaluate the effects of sugar beet sowing date, planting density and cultivar on solar radiation interception, the present study was conducted in kamal-abad agricultural research station of sugar beet seed institute (sbsi) in 2005 and 2006. the experiment arranged was in split-split plots based on randomized complete block design (rcbd) with three replications. the sowing date, plan...

In this work, a more accurate prediction of liquid evaporation flux has been achieved. The statistical rate theory approach, which is recently introduced by Ward and Fang and exact estimation of vapor pressure in the layer adjacent to the liquid–vapor interface have  been used for prediction of this flux. Firstly, the existence of an equilibrium layer adjacent to the liquid-vapor interface ...

We report the reconstruction, from a core-particle and split-protein fraction, of the larger subribosomal particle of rabbit reticulocytes. The reassembled particle was active in polyphenylalanine synthesis and in the puromycin reaction. The core-particles and split-protein fractions were obtained by treatment of the larger subparticle with salt solutions containing NH4+ and Mg2+ in the molar r...
