The increased presence of diagram-type student work in higher education has recently attracted researchers to look into the automation of diagram marking. This paper intro duces web-based diagram drawing and marking tools for a new (semi-automatic) assessment approach. The approach reduces the number of diagram components marked by the human marker and provides individualised and detailed feedb...

A new resolvent decomposition of a regular polynomial matrix is derived which is a refinement of the results given by Gohberg et al (1982) and Vardulakis (1991). Based on this, a complete solution of the regular Polynomial Matrix Descriptions (PMDs) is presented that reflects precisely the zero input response and the zero state response, and takes into account the impulsive properties of the sy...

This document provides a guide to research that has been conducted on the misconceptions that designers of hazardous installations sometimes have about operators and the operating environment, and the misconceptions that operating and maintenance staff have about designers, the design process or design intentions. These misconceptions are central to many accidents and incidents, and it seems po...

BLAKE is our proposal for SHA-3. BLAKE entirely relies on previously analyzed components: it uses the HAIFA iteration mode and builds its compression function on the ChaCha core function. BLAKE resists generic second-preimage attacks, length extension, and sidechannel attacks. Theoretical and empirical security guarantees are given, against structural and differential attacks. BLAKE hashes on a...
