We present a preliminary search for D-D mixing using the decays D → Kππ, additionally presenting Dalitz-plot distributions and a measurement of the branching ratio for this mode. A new tagging technique is used to produce the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed Dalitz plot, which in turn is used to motivate the method used for the D-mixing search. We analyze 230.4 fb of data collected from the BABAR dete...

When creating interactive drama computer games then it is frequently useful to be able to generate a plot to use as a background for the drama and to use as a knowledge base for Non-Player Characters. In this article a new engine is proposed that dynamically creates new game plots for a murder mystery based game. The game engine uses Bayesian networks to create a new plot based on a probability...

Stuart Hall, in his 1983 lectures states, “people have to a language speak about where they are and what other possible futures available them….These may not be real; if you try concretize them immediately, find there is nothing there. But there, real, the possibility of being someone else, some social space from one which already been placed.” (Hall, 2016, p.205) The literature Northeast India...

This paper describes the security weakness of a recently proposed improved chaotic encryption method based on the modulation of a signal generated by a chaotic system with an appropriately chosen scalar signal. The aim of the improvement is to avoid the breaking of chaotic encryption schemes by means of the return map attack introduced by Pérez and Cerdeira. A method of attack based on taking t...

Recurrences are developed to enumerate any family of nonnegative integer sequences λ = (λ1, . . . , λn) satisfying the constraints: λ1 a1 ≥ λ2 a2 ≥ · · · ≥ λn−1 an−1 ≥ λn an ≥ 0, for a given constraint sequence a = [a1, . . . , an] of positive integers. They are applied to derive new counting formulas, to reveal new relationships between families, and to give simple proofs of the truncated lect...
