The roof garden has great functioning of smoothing the shortage of land resource in the city and making use of the land resource diversity and efficiently. The modern era, following the fast development of economic and society, people have a high claim to green roof or roof garden. It is an efficient and reasonable way to exploit the open space the roof of the building. From the classic roof ...

A convertible bond is defined to be (e.g., Jorion [10]) a bond issued by a corporation that can be converted into the equity of that corporation at certain times using a predetermined exchange ratio. This entails the creation of new shares issued by the corporation if and when conversion occurs, and the existing shares are diluted by the creation of the new shares. The option to convert is sole...

Can part of Africa’s current underdevelopment be explained by its slave trades? To explore this question empirically, I combined data from ship records with data from various historical documents reporting slave ethnicities, and construct estimates of the number of slaves exported from each country during Africa’s slave trades between 1400 and 1900. I find a strong robust negative correlation b...

We prove the Garden of Eden theorem for cellular automata with finite set of states and finite neighbourhood on right amenable left homogeneous spaces with finite stabilisers. It states that the global transition function of such an automaton is surjective if and only if it is preinjective. Pre-Injectivity means that two global configurations that differ at most on a finite subset and have the ...

We prove a converse to Myhill’s “Garden-of-Eden” theorem and obtain in this manner a characterization of amenability in terms of cellular automata: A group G is amenable if and only if every cellular automaton with carrier G that has gardens of Eden also has mutually erasable patterns. This answers a question by Schupp, and solves a conjecture by CeccheriniSilberstein, Mach̀ı and Scarabotti.

As previous years, Dip 5 will continue with the redefinition of what was formerly known as public space, trying to reactivate the physical realm of the common, nowadays kidnapped by economic and political agents. The origin of the word paradise gets back to ancient Persia, and to the Avestian term pairi-daêza, composed by pairi, "around" and diz "to construct", literally enclosed space, that wa...

With the increasing number of documents that are available in digital form, also the number of digital historical documents is increasing (Berkvens, 2001). It cannot be assumed that standard IR systems perform well on historical documents: historical texts differ from modern texts in three ways (Hüning, 1996; Van Der Horst and Marschall, 1989): (a) vocabularies have changed, (b) spelling has ch...

This paper presents the results of theoretical-historical study and research thoughts ideas Sreten Adžić (1856-1933), a famous pedagogue leading representative Pestalocian orientation in our pedagogy. The subject is analysis most significant theses focused on development work Male Teacher's School Jagodina. We see significance this interpretation Adžić's views upbringing education, which greatl...
