A Dammann grating is used as a spatial filter for a passive coherent beam combination (CBC) of three Yb-doped fiber amplifiers with an all-optical feedback loop. Using this diffractive-optics-based spatial filtering technique, we demonstrate CBC with 20 W output power, and the visibility of the far-field interference pattern is up to 88.7%. Measurements suggest that this approach is robust with...

The effects of conjoint behavioral consultation (CBC) and a structured homework program on math homework completion and accuracy in junior high school students (grades seven through nine) who were at risk for academic failure were investigated. A multiple baseline design across five participants was utilized. Follow-up data were collected approximately one month after CBC was completed, to asse...

Control-based continuation (CBC) is a means of applying numerical continuation directly to a physical experiment for bifurcation analysis without the use of a mathematical model. CBC enables the detection and tracking of bifurcations directly, without the need for a post-processing stage as is often the case for more traditional experimental approaches. In this paper, we use CBC to directly loc...

The complete blood count (CBC) is one of the most frequently requested tests in laboratory medicine, performed in a range of healthcare situations. The provision of an ideal assay material for external quality assessment is confounded by the fragility of the cellular components of blood, the lack of commutability of stabilised whole blood material and the lack of certified reference materials a...

Solar energy is one of the important infinite source that maintains life on earth and is of clean energy. This energy can be converted to different forms as per our requirements. In this paper digital implementation of Photo Voltaic (PV) based cascaded boost converter (CBC)for voltage source inverter (VSI) fed induction motor is presented. The proposed PV model is based on a behavioral cell mod...

In this paper, we shall discuss how to construct multidimensional biorthogonal wavelets by employing a coset by coset (CBC) algorithm. We shall construct biorthogonal wavelets on the hexagonal lattice by CBC algorithm. In particular, we shall propose a CBC algorithm to construct inter-polatory biorthogonal wavelets which are derived from pairs of fundamental reenable functions. More precisely, ...

Correctness-by-construction (CbC) is an algorithm derivation technique in which the algorithm is co-developed with its correctness proof. Starting with a specification (most often as a preand post-condition), ‘derivation steps’ are made towards a final algorithm. Critically, each step in the derivation is a correctness-preserving one, meaning that the composition of the derivation steps is the ...

A similarity measure based on the number of coincident bits in multichannel images is presented. The similarity criterion incorporated in the image registration algorithm uses a coincident bit counting (CBC) method to obtain the number of matching bits between the frames of interest. The CBC method not only performs favorably compared with traditional techniques, but also renders simpler implem...

Vaudenay [1] has presented an attack on the CBC mode of block ciphers, which uses padding according to the PKCS#5 standard. One of the countermeasures, which he has assumed, consisted of the encryption of the message M ́= M || padding || hash(M || padding) instead of the original M. This can increase the length of the message by several blocks compared with the present padding. Moreover, Wagner ...
