Electronic order book trading has evolved in being recognized as the best-practice for trading small and mid-sized orders. Yet, this mechanism does not properly address the needs of large-sized orders which tend to execute off order book in over-the-counter markets. Order book trading provides for public price discovery but not for quantity discovery. Off book executions generally fragment the ...

We introduce counter-cryptanalysis as a new paradigm for strengthening weak cryptographic primitives against cryptanalytic attacks. Redesigning a weak primitive to more strongly resist cryptanalytic techniques will unavoidably break backwards compatibility. Instead, countercryptanalysis exploits unavoidable anomalies introduced by cryptanalytic attacks to detect and block cryptanalytic attacks ...

“Folliculitis et perifolliculitis capitis abscedens et suffodiens is a rare disease of unknown etiology...The cause of scalp folliculitis is not well understood. It is generally considered to be an infl ammatory reaction to components of the hair follicle, particularly the micro-organisms. These include: bacteria (especially Propionibacterium acnes, but in severe cases, also Staphylococcus aure...

a gas permeation model (coupling model) has been developed which has the flexibility to be used for different membrane module configurations. the aim of this work is to predict the performance of a single stage gas separation process using membranes and provide a comprehensive description of process parameters like flow rates, composition, stage cut and stream pressure. the significant feature ...

In defense applications, the main features of radars are Low Probability Intercept (LPI) and Exploitation (LPE). The counterpart uses more capable intercept receivers signal processors thanks to ongoing technological progress. Noise Radar Technology (NRT) is probably a very effective answer increasing demand for operational LPI/LPE radars. design selection radiated waveforms, while respecting p...

In General Packet Radio Service (GPRS), a mobile station (MS) is tracked at the cell level during packet transmission, and is tracked at the routing area (RA) level when no packet is delivered. A READY Timer (RT) mechanism was proposed in 3GPP 23.060 to determine when to switch from cell tracking to RA tracking. In this mechanism, a threshold interval is defined. If no packet is delivered withi...
