In a subsection entitled, “An Expression of Gratitude”, Climacus finds numerous ways not to express his gratitude. Then, in a subsection entitled, “Possible/Actual...

This document is the result of a Master Thesis in Computer Engineering, describing the analysis, specification and implementation of the first prototype of Socrates, a configurable, scalable and predictable platform for System-on-chip Multiprocessor system for real-time applications. The design time of Systemon-a-Chip (SoC) is today rapidly increasing due to high complexity and lack of efficien...

In this paper we present “Socrates” a prototype of a QA system for the Bulgarian language. The system exploits both encyclopaedic resources and information found on the Web. The approach uses linguistic patterns and indicators to rank the results obtained from the Web. An encyclopaedic virtual database VIDA was created to provide uniform interface to different on-line and offline encyclopaedic ...

This paper presents some selected use cases for self-organisation in wireless networks, namely on selfoptimisation (Home eNodeB and Load Balancing) and selfhealing (Cell Outage Management). Furthermore an approach to identify interrelationships between these use cases is presented and an example for parameter correlation is given. The paper thereby provides results that have been achieved withi...

Socrates and Meno reach two different conclusions: in the first part of the dialogue, that virtue is knowledge and can therefore be taught; in the second, that it is reliable true opinion and can therefore be acquired only by divine inspiration. Taking into account Socrates’ role as a teacher (of his interlocutors and of Plato) and Plato’s role as a teacher (of us), I show that neither of these...
