This paper describes a system that learns discourse rules for domaln-speclfic analysis of unrestricted text. The goal of discourse analysis in this context is to transform locally identified references to relevant information in the text into a coherent representation of the entire text. This involves a complex series of decidons about merging coreferential objects, filtering out irrelevant inf...

Partial differential equation solvers spend most of their computation time performing nearest neighbor (stencil) computations on grids that model spatial domains. Tiling is an effective performance optimization for improving the data locality and enabling course-grain parallelization for such computations. However, when the domains are periodic, tiling through time is not directly applicable du...

The wrap-around L2-discrepancy has been used in quasi-Monte Carlo methods, especially in experimental designs. In this paper, explicit lower bounds of the wrap-aroundL2-discrepancy of U-type designs are obtained. Sufficient conditions for U-type designs to achieve their lower bounds are given. Taking advantage of these conditions, we consider the perfect resolvable balanced incomplete block des...

Extremely compliant sub-2-μm sensor films enable temperature mapping on complex 3D objects, like integrated circuits on printed circuit boards, food packages, and on human skin. In their stretchable form, these metal films withstand strains up to 275%. This imperceptible electronic foil technology platform offers new avenues for the design of complex, hybrid rigid-island stretchable-interconnec...

The vast amounts of on-line text now available have led to renewed interest in Information Extraction (IE) systems that analyze unrestricted text, producing a structured representation of selected information from the text. This paper presents a novel approach that uses machine learning to acquire knowledge for some of the higher level IE processing. Wrap-Up is a trainable IE discourse componen...

The ability to interrogate and track single cells over time in a high-throughput format would provide critical information for fundamental biological understanding of processes and for various applications, including drug screening and toxicology. We have developed an ultrarapid and simple method to create single-cell wells of controllable diameter and depth with commodity shrink-wrap film and ...

Axons of lateral nociceptive (N) neurons in leech segmental ganglia wrap certain somata in adjacent ganglia but no somata in their own ganglion. In adults, the N neurons, which accurately regenerate axosomatic wrappings, can be induced to sprout in their own ganglion and wrap target homologues if the ganglion is isolated by cutting the nerve cord. Manipulations that denervate the new targets wi...

The paper is a broad overview of the South African law on Electronic Contracts (e-contracts). It has a brief introduction to the South African Lex Informatica which covers historical evolution of Internet law on an international platform and how it has impacted on South African Law on negotiation of commercial contracts. Section 2 deals with the South African Common law and how it applied to el...
