13 Proof: R private (f) C private (f) since in any protocol the parties send at least one bit per round. On the other hand, for every privately computable function f the bound R private (f) is achieved by the protocol A f. In any round of this protocol the parties send a message with size at most n. (Note that in steps (2a) and (2b) of A f we may save one bit per round by omitting the most sign...

Although they’ve been refined, the tools have neither progressed to meet the challenge of complex software nor evolved to exploit faster computers. Today, tools from an era of computational scarcity run on machines four orders of magnitude faster. Develo...

Pregnancy-Specific Changes in VEGF Ca2+ Signaling in Uterine Artery Endothelial Cells Derek S Boeldt* , Mary A Gummer, Fu-Xian Yi, Ian M Bird Pregnancy is a time of greatly increased blood flow in the uterus to meet the needs of the growing fetus. This is achieved through the mechanisms of vasodilation and angiogenesis. In diseased states, such as preeclampsia, proper flow to the fetus is not a...

Not all marketplace issues (for example, sales channels) strongly affect software project planning and decision-making, but the decisions we discuss here do. Rather than discuss contracted software development for specific customers or open-source software efforts, we'll emphasize the uncertainties and strategic issues that suppliers encounter in selling or licensing software in the general mar...

A bstract Using a data sample of 980 fb − 1 collected with the Belle detector at KEKB asymmetric-energy e + collider, we study processes $$ {\Xi}_c^0\to \Lambda {\overline{K}}^{\ast 0} Ξ c 0 → Λ <mml:mi...

The three reactions pp ! 0 0 , 0 0 and 0 in proton-antiproton annihilation in ight at 900 MeV=c are used to search for isoscalar 0 and 2 mesons in the mass range 100

We study $D_{s}^{+}\to\rho^{0(+)}a^{+(0)}_{0}$, $D_{s}^{+}\to\omega a^{+}_{0}$, and the resonant $D_{s}^{+}\to\rho a_0$,$a_{0}\to \eta\pi(KK)$ decays. In final state interaction, where $D_s^+\to (\eta^{(\prime)}\pi^+,K^+\bar K^0)$ are followed by $(\eta^{(\prime)}\pi^+,K^+\bar to $\rho^{0(+)}a^{+(0)}_{0}$ rescatterings, we predict ${\cal B}(D_{s}^{+}\to\rho^{0(+)}a^{+(0)}_{0})=(3.0\pm 0.3\pm 1....
