Notes on an ideal Hellenic coin. For a contribution to Plato, Leg. V 742a-c – The colony of Laws, described by Plato in his last dialogue, represents concrete attempt create new city. In this sense, the philosopher proposes economic policy, at basis which idea currency that acts as for all activities within polis is advanced. A real has similar characteristics one cities. But also external acti...

[1] Imaging radar measurements at long wavelengths (e.g., >30 cm) allow deep (up to tens of meters) probing of the physical structure and dielectric properties of planetary regoliths. We illustrate a potential application for a Mars orbital synthetic aperture radar (SAR) using new Earth-based 70-cm wavelength radar data for the Moon. The terrae on the northern margin of Mare Imbrium, the Montes...

The proof of Serre’s conjecture on Galois representations over finite fields allows us to show, using a trick due to Serre himself, that all rigid Calabi-Yau threefolds defined over Q are modular. The safest general characterization of the European philosophical tradition is that it consists of a series of footnotes to Plato. Alfred North Whitehead,

Who will guard the guardians? Political scientists since Plato have sought to answer this, the central question of the civil-military relations subfield. Although civil-military relations is a very broad subject, encompassing the entire range of relationships between the military and civilian society at every level, the field largely focuses on the control or direction of the military by the hi...

Central adjudication in randomised controlled outcome-driven trials represents a traditional approach to maintain data integrity by applying uniformed rules for assessment of clinical events. It was the purpose of this investigation to determine the patterns of myocardial infarction (MI) adjudication in the TRITON, RECORD, and PLATO trials. We were matching centrally-adjudicated MI's (CAMI's) f...

This paper presents PLATO, an analytical technique to model the performance in all-optical packet-switched networks with various topologies and node architectures. Using this technique, we propose a two-part algorithm, incorporating mathematical analysis and a numeric method, to model the network’s traffic flow and the local packet-loss probability inside each node. The PLATO technique has demo...

Little about Aristotle's chapter on the voluntariness of character (NE iii 5) is uncontroversial.l Some arguments Aristotle deploys are on their face formally invalid; the position he appears to defend has seemed so absufd that commentators have felt obliged to rescue him from it. Thus we find Susan Sauvd Meyer, Randall Curren, and Jean Roberts, amon&others, arguing that despite appearances Ari...

This document contains the first iteration for a design for recommender systems in the preservation planning tool Plato. The integration of such support systems shall reduce the effort needed to create a preservation plan and enable preservation planning for less experienced users. . Keyword list Recommender Systems, Collaborative Filtering, Content-based Filtering, Preservation Planning, Plato...

This paper examines preservation planning as it is implemented within the National Library’s preservation repository (Rosetta) and compares it directly to the PLATO tool created as part of the PLANETS project. Preservation planning is both a business precondition and the systematic framework defining any preservation action. At the National Library of New Zealand Te Puna Mātauranga o Aotearoa, ...
