“O morning, as Gregor Samsa was waking up from anxious dreams, he discovered that in his bed he had been changed into a monstrous verminous bug,” wrote Franz Kafka in The Metamorphosis. “He lay on his armorhard back and saw, as he lifted his head up a little, his brown, arched abdomen divided up into rigid bow-like sections. From this height the blanket, just about ready to slide off completely...

As a community, we (programmers, compiler writers, hardware architects, etc.) often take folklore, e.g. claims in programming guides, for granted. Inspired by Descartes’ methodic doubt, i.e. challenging the truth of one’s beliefs, we question this folklore. Thus, we have developed a tool suite to systematically test the memory ordering behaviour of multiand manycore chips and compared our obser...

This document reports on performance of a splitterless "V/ADSL" system that uses DMT with 4.3125 kHz wide tones over the band from DC to 5 MHz. Asymmetric 26/3.2 Mbps V/ADSL service reaches over 3000 feet, while symmetric service at 6.5 Mbps and 3.2 Mbps reaches are 3000 to 6000 feet for the conventional (or digitally duplexed) DMT. These ranges are maintained even in the presence of bridged-ta...

Previously, Raskar proposed a method of transforming the frequency response of a traditional shutter through the use of coded exposure. This technique shaped the frequency spectrum to a broadband signal that preserved higher frequency information and thus made the deconvolution process more well posed. This paper presents a generalization of the motion blur kernel he used. Instead of requiring ...

(a) Acceptable daily intake (ADI). The ADI for total residues of virginiamycin is 250 micrograms per kilogram of body weight per day. (b) Tolerances—(1) Swine. Tolerances are established for residues of virginiamycin in uncooked edible tissues of 0.4 part per million (ppm) in kidney, skin, and fat, 0.3 ppm in liver, and 0.1 ppm in muscle. (2) Broiler chickens and cattle. A tolerance for residue...
