Andrew V. Sutherland In this lecture we give a brief overview of modular forms, focusing on their relationship to elliptic curves. This connection is crucial to Wiles’ proof of Fermat’s Last Theorem [7]; the crux of his proof is that every semistable elliptic curve over Q is modular.1 In order to explain what this means, we need to delve briefly into the theory of modular forms. Our goal in doi...

The sub Comittee prostate of the CCAFU established guidelines for diagnostic, treatment, evaluation and standart of care of prostate cancer. Guidelines 2010 were updated based on systematic literature search performed by the sub-Comittee in Medline and PubMed databases to evaluate references, levels of evidence and grade of recommandation. Pathological examination of the tissue specimens was de...

The psychophysical relationship between the magnitude of pressure on thirteen test locations of twenty healthy subjects' feet with four probe areas at three indentation speeds and the corresponding perceived sensations were analyzed. The dependency of pressure pain thresholds (PPT) on area, A, and speed, v, can be mathematically modeled in the form, PPTi = [ai + bLn(v)]Aβi = 1,2...13 where β an...

A component based Architecture is proposed to meet the requirements of the software development architecture of naval simulation training standard console. The Standard Element Database (SDD) and management system, the Foundation Classes Library (FCL), the Standard Object Model Development Tool(S-OMDT) are developed which make developing simpler and rapid. S012 The coarticulatory effect of bi-s...

The use of Geographic Information or GI, has grown rapidly in recent years. Previous research has identified the importance of usability and user centred design in enabling the proliferation and exploitation of GI. However, the design and development of usable GI is not simply a matter of applying the tried and tested usability methods that have been developed for software and web design. Deali...
