Four tax reforms have been proposed in recent years: BradleyGephardt, Kemp-Kasten, Treasury I and Treasury II. These reforms seek to improve economic efficiency by taxing different capital assets and sources of income more equally. Each reform is purported to be revenueneutral from the perspective of the U.S. Treasury ,and distributionally neutral across households. While this alleged neutralit...

To evaluate the inoculation effect of potassium releasing, phosphate solubilizing and nitrogen fixing bacteria on the fruit quality of tomato, an experiment based on randomized complete block design with 9 treatments and 3 replications has been conducted. In this experiment, tomato (super chief cv.) seedlings of the in the treasury cultivation with single and combined treatments of the potassiu...

Tenino was an adult female wolf, born in the wild and placed into captivity at 1 year of age because of her participation in livestock depredation. Her method of capture, well documented, involved being darted twice by helicopter and translocated twice. This method of capture would have exposed her to the 2 factors that are important in the etiology of posttraumatic stress disorder in humans: u...

This paper presents dynamic standby control (DSC) with voltage keeper for further standby power reduction. As compared to the reported DSC, the new modified DSC can be kept deeply cut-off with negative overdrive voltage as well. Besides, a bootstrapped voltage keeper directly recharges the boosted node of power gate, which prevents leakage current during the recharging period. However, total st...

A Triple-modular redundancy (TMR) system will have a failure if Single Event Transient (SET) faults affect the voter. In this paper, we propose a full SET-tolerance dual-modular majority voter (DMV) circuit for all internal nodes. The DMV consisting of two simplex-modular voters, two inverters, a C-element inverter and a weak keeper is implemented in CMOS 40 nm technology. A novel XOR gate and ...

This paper reports field results of E-PERMS in both (lie S-Chamber and their keeper caps. Hie results have been compiled during the past two years covering over 5,000 measurements. Data has been grouped to show precision (co-located tests), accuracy (radon chamber results), and electret stability. The latter results were also broken down into S-Chamber versus keeper cap versus electret series. ...

This paper describes a 256-word 32-bit 4-read, 4-write ported register file for 6-GHz operation in 1.2-V 130-nm technology. The local bitline uses a pseudostatic technique for aggressive bitline active leakage reduction/tolerance to enable 16 bitcells/bitline, lowusage, and 50% keeper downsizing. Gate–source underdrive of cc on read-select transistors is established without additional supply/bi...

This study presents the design of low power 9T SRAM cell using dynamic domino logic to achieve low power dissipation. The internal structure of the proposed 9T SRAM has cross coupled dynamic inverters which periodically updates the internal node voltage levels which, increase the read and write stability of the circuit. The SRAM design also has charge keeper transistor which resolves the proble...

As the 1990s begin, social security is once again at the center of public debate. Under current projections social security is expected to post substantial surpluses during the next two or three decades and a string of ever-increasing deficits thereafter. In the meantime the social se­ curity trust funds are projected to accumulate large reserves. At the heart of the current controversy is the ...
