For a product containing a strong sensitizer to be considered a hazardous substance and to require cautionary labeling under the FHSA, the product must be capable of causing substantial personal injury or substantial illness during, or as a result of, customary or reasonably foreseeable handling or use, including reasonably foreseeable ingestion by children. This requires consideration of the r...

1 {gustavo.figueiredo, nfonseca}@ic.unicamp.br 2 [email protected] 3 [email protected] Abstract This paper presents a mechanism for the dynamic sizing of Label Switched Paths (LSPs) in MPLS networks based on the mean queue size at the ingress router of the LSP. Upon exceeding the established thresholds, the mechanism is triggered and the LSP is resized after a signaling delay. Results indicate t...

The paper presents an extension to the Excentric Labeling, a labeling technique to dynamically show labels around a movable lens. Each labels refers to one object within the lens and is connected to it through a line. The original implementation has several known limitations and potential improvements that we address in this work, like: high density areas, uneven density distributions, and summ...

Hand-made illustrations in scientific and technical textbooks commonly use internal and external labels or legends to establish co-referential relation between pictorial elements and textual expressions. By analyzing the most complex examples, we extracted several label layout styles and classified them. We propose a variety of real-time label layout algorithms that aim to produce nice and clea...

Multitask learning has been applied successfully to a range of tasks, mostly morphosyntactic. However, little is known on when MTL works and whether there are data characteristics that help to determine its success. In this paper we evaluate a range of semantic sequence labeling tasks in a MTL setup. We examine different auxiliary tasks, amongst which a novel setup, and correlate their impact t...

The current trend of increasing accessibility and reachability of the Internet has resulted in many new services at the application layer. The potential growth of services on the Internet is only restricted by the network technologies that realize the Internet. In particular, Layer 3 technologies are conventionally inflexible and do not adapt well to rapid changes in the Internet environment. S...

Research project entitled “Yield and economic dynamics of intercropping in summer vegetables ” was conducted at Horticultural Research Farm, NWFP Agricultural University, Peshawar (Pakistan) during 1999 and 2000. Summer vegetables were evaluated alone and in various combinations for their yield, land equivalent ratio and income in intercrop combinations. Each plot was 4x4 m whereas number of ro...
