1. INTRODUCTION. In this paper I shall discuss Plimpton 322, one of the world's most famous ancient mathematical artefacts [Figure 1]. But I also want to explore the ways in which studying ancient mathematics is, or should be, different from researching modern mathematics. One of the most cited analyses of Plimpton 322, published some twenty years ago, was called "Sherlock Holmes in Babylon" [4...

Prime numbers have been a source of fascination for mathematicians since antiquity. The proof that there are infinitely many prime numbers is attributed to Euclid (fourth century B.C.). The basic method of determining all primes less than a given number N is the sieve of Eratosthenes (third century B.C.). Diophantus (third (?) century A.D.) was occupied with finding rational number solutions to...

The research described in this paper addresses the dual concerns of synthesis of Arabic, a language that has shot to prominence in the past few years, and synthesis on a handheld device, realization of which presents difficult software engineering problems. Our system was developed in conjunction with the DARPA BABYLON project, and has been integrated with English synthesis, English and Arabic ...

Papers and conferences on treatment usually emphasize the advances and improvements in the development of new methods. At the same time deficiencies in treatment tend to be given insufficient attention. But for clinicians who have to treat and manage both acute and chronic schizophrenic patients such deficiencies are only too obvious (Hamilton, 1975). This paper reviews some of the problems and...
