The correlation between the physical paths of a digital circuit has important implications in various design automation problems, such as timing analysis, test generation and diagnosis. When considering the complexity and tight timing constraints of modern circuits, this correlation affects both the design process and the testing approaches followed in manufacturing. In this work we quantify th...

This paper seeks to determine whether the BRICS group has lived up expectations that their influence in international economic governance will increase. Stellar performance and resulting well-being are important factors may cause this grow.

During drilling of Leg 160 in the Eastern Mediterranean (April−May, 1995), Messinian (i.e., uppermost Miocene) facies were identified at a site at the base of the Cyprus slope (Site 968) and at two sites on the Eratosthenes Seamount (Sites 965 and 967). The new results can be compared with the recovery of Messinian evaporites from the Florence Rise west of Cyprus (Deep Sea Drilling Project Site...

Heat illness in the Armed Forces is an emotive issue. No specific service-wide system currently exists to monitor the incidence of heat illness. Within British Forces Cyprus medical policy guidelines for physical activity at various Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) readings were issued in 1988. A local system for reporting heat casualties was introduced in August 1989. This paper examined retr...

The severity of the illness varied from a few loose stools to the passage of bloody fl.uid up to fifty times per day. Other symptoms included fever, nausea, occasional vomiting and abdominal cramps. There was no obvious relationship 'between the severity of the symptoms and the organism isolated. Abdominal tenderness was a common physical sign. Prostration and dehydration were surprisingly infr...
