Information systems security (ISS) is an increasingly critical issue for companies worldwide. In 2013 cybercrime has caused losses worth US $113 billion affecting 378m victims (Norton Symantec Cybercrime Report 2013). Besides criminal attacks and system malfunctions, human error is the major reason for information security incidents. Hence, refining our understanding how employees’ behavior reg...

Over two hundred years ago, Waring raised the question of representing natural integers as sums of integral klh powers. At the beginning of this century, Hubert proved that, for any fixed k , the minimal number of summands needed in the representation of any integer can be uniformly bounded. The least such bound is denoted by g(k). A first goal is to show that our knowledge of g(k) is rather sa...

Micromechanics techniques, such as nano-indentation and micro-pillar compression, can be applied to study hydrogen-charged zirconium alloys at elevated temperatures, which is highly relevant for the nuclear industry. Such experiments are often conducted inside a scanning electron microscope (SEM) under high-vacuum conditions (10−5 mbar). The combination of high-temperature environment causes so...

Abstract To simulate the expansion of matter created in relativistic nuclear collisions, codes 3+1 dimensions are used and we developing a new one. benchmark such codes, Sod’s shock tube is often used. A closely related problem one-dimensional gas into vacuum. In this paper, study classically relativistically with Smoothed Particle Method test various techniques to improve precision speed solut...

1.1. Background and Long-term Goals. The present project has three goals: (i) the integration of lexical and compositional semantics, a longterm goal; (ii) a better understanding of the semantics of the Russian Genitive of Negation (Gen Neg), a construction which offers intriguing challenges for the first goal; and (iii) the integration of Russian lexical semantics with Western formal semantics...

Malaria transmission by Anopheles subpictus Grassi, 1899 and Anopheles culicifacies Giles, 1901 was studied from March 2004 to February 2007 in Angul District, Orissa, India, which is highly endemic for malaria. Adult mosquitoes were collected from human dwellings using sucking tubes and a mechanical aspirator. After identification, some An. subpictus and An. culicifacies specimens were subject...

for planting fine seeds in cellular trays, an automatic pneumatic seeder was designed, constructed and evaluated. catia software was used to design and analysis the system parts of the seeder. different parts of the seeder, including vibrating seed hopper, vacuum boom, seed picking nozzles, seed tube, pneumatic system and electronic control unit for automation of the seeder, were designed and c...

Hydrologic alterations resulting from dam construction and other human activities have negatively impacted the biodiversity and ecological integrity of rivers worldwide (Dudgeon 2000, Pringle et al. 2000). These alterations have included habitat fragmentation, conversion of lotic to lentic habitat, variable flow and thermal regimes, degraded water quality, altered sediment transport processes, ...
