Introduction The Electricity and the Heart website 1 is intended to facilitate the collection, cataloging and presentation of historical information about technical and scientific advances in cardiac devices. Over the course of the past century as the fields of cardiac pacing and electrophysiology have evolved, the technological devices used by physicians and researchers has been a fascinating ...

Situated in the Talvar valley of the Bijar County, Tepe Gheshlagh is an archaeological site with a sequence spanning the Chalcolithic through to the Bronze Age. Two seasons of salvage excavations have covered the site as it will be submerged as part of the intended lake of the Talvar Dam. Results from the excavations show evidence of long-lasting Chalcolithic (Dalma) settlements at the site. Da...

Research and teaching in the university would benefit if high-quality museum images and associated information could be made available over campus networks for educational purposes. For this to be possible, however, museums and educational institutions need to define a common framework for information collection, distribution, and use, that respects intellectual property rights. The Museum Educ...

There are many researches that introduce various techniques of browsing and discovering music using “visual forms” to the listeners. “Visual forms” include album cover, colour and mood picture are used to represent music mood in a way that can be easily understood by listeners.

A circuit model is proposed in this paper for calculating the transient potential rise on the wind turbine struck by lightning. The model integrates the blade, sliding contact site, and tower and grounding system of the wind turbine into an equivalent circuit. The lightning current path from the attachment point to the ground can be fully described by the equivalent circuit. The transient poten...

The Earl system works in the domain of sandwich recipes. We show how Earl uses two sources of knowledge —ingredients knowledge that is extracted from a gastronomy web site, and a case base of sandwich recipes— to propose substitutes for ingredients in sandwich recipes. In particular, we describe four substitution methods: humanauthored substitutions, taxonomically-driven substitutions, lexicall...
