Developing countries have embarked on the promotion of “ICT access for all” through subsidized Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs), especially in underserviced areas of such countries. The main aim of the “ICT access for all” is to extend the communication services to the large areas of underserviced regions through subsidized communication services. In some instances, subsidies m...

If uniform coding (Gödelization) of potentially infinite sequences of numbers can be performed in PSPACEF, then PSPACE = EXPTIME 6= EXPSPACE = 2-EXPTIME, and, for all p, we have p−EXPSPACE = p+1-EXPTIME; if it can be performed in LINSPACEF, we also have LINSPACE = DTIME(2); the proof fails, when relativized to oracle-TM’s. A by-product of this research is that PTIMEF is not closed under number-...

UNLABELLED Hearing loss in the elderly is one of the most incapacitating communication disorders, preventing them to fully perform their tasks in society. AIM This study aimed to determine what is the best tool that together with the audiometric tests better represents the hearing loss reported by the elderly and which frequencies in the audiometric test must be considered to determine the he...

Saric, M., Kalacic, I., and Holetic, A. (1976). British Journal ofIndustrial Medicine, 33, 18-24. Follow-up of ventilatory lung function in a group of cement workers. In a group of 160 active cement workers and 80 control workers selected on the basis of having or nothaving symptoms of chronic bronchitis, forcedvital capacity(FVC) and one second expiratory volume (FEVy.o), both corrected for ag...

Individual differences in isoluminance values were studied in infants and adults using a motion nulling paradigm. Two luminance-modulated sinusoidal grating components (spatial frequency=0.25 cpd, temporal frequency=5.6 Hz, speed=22.4 deg/s) were superimposed and moved in opposite directions across a color video screen. The contrasts of the two components were traded off to determine motion nul...

We investigate various mean value problems involving order three primitive Dirichlet characters. In particular, we obtain an asymptotic formula for the first moment of central values of the Dirichlet L-functions associated to this family, with a power savings in the error term. We also obtain a large-sieve type result for order three (and six) Dirichlet characters.

entanglement, quantum theory, quantum information, quantum computation, foundations of quantum mechanics Previous investigations of entanglement manipulations have focused on the average properties of the outcomes and little is known about the actual probability distribution. Here we go beyond the average properties. We show that, for a pure entangled state shared between two separated persons ...

We consider a generalization of the gcd-sum function, and obtain its average order with a quasi-optimal error term. We also study the reciprocals of the gcd-sum and lcm-sum functions.

for all grades of severity and even with normal pregnancy. Thereafter, however, the lines diverge and for normal or only mildly affected cases the bilirubin value progressively falls, while for stillbirth and very severe disease it progressively rises. Moderately affected infants fall in the intermediate zone. At all stages of gestation one liquor bilirubin value unless extreme can be misleadin...
