The spacetime metric around a rotating SuperConductive Ring (SCR) is deduced from the gravitomagnetic London moment in rotating superconductors. It is shown that theoretically it is possible to generate Closed Timelike Curves (CTC) with rotating SCRs. The possibility to use these CTC’s to travel in time as initially idealized by Gödel is investigated. It is shown however, that from a technology...

In this paper, we present Trust-X , a comprehensive XML-based [12] framework for trust negotiations, specifically conceived for a peer-to-peer environment. Trust negotiation is a promising approach for establishing trust in open systems like the Internet, where sensitive interactions may often occur between entities at first contact, with no prior knowledge of each other. The framework we propo...

It is not customary to commence a keynote address with caveats and disclaimers. However, this is the rare occasion when such qualifications are necessary because—if I may be permitted a crude pun—of the lack of qualifications of the speaker himself. This is not false modesty. It is very real. I know that I have often been referred to in the Singapore context as a legal historian.1 Clearly, the ...

CP violation in the B system [1] has been established by the recent measurements of sin 2β, with a world average of sin 2β = 0.78 ± 0.08 [2]. The main B decay used to probe the weak phase β is the so-called “gold-plated” mode B d(t) → J/ψKS. In order to extract weak-phase information cleanly, i.e. with no hadronic uncertainties, a given B decay must be dominated by a single weak decay amplitude...

Between 2001 and 2003 the London Health Commission undertook health impact assessments (HIAs) on a series of strategies developed by the Greater London Authority and the Mayor of London. The HIAs were rapid, each involving a literature review and a participant workshop. In all cases the reports made a series of recommendations that were given to the Mayor. The HIAs led to changes and ensured th...
