Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA) is a set of technologies that uses additives to reduce binder viscosity and increase mixture workability, which provides complete coating aggregates at lower temperatures around 100 °C 130 °C. Organic wax or Sasobit one the can be used for this purpose. It reduces melting point wax, allows production asphalt mixes temperatures. This attempt proposes new relationships elas...

Mediation is an important application of XML. The MIX mediator uses Document Type De nitions (DTDs) to assist the user in query formulation and query processors in running queries more e ciently. We provide an algorithm for inferring the view DTD from the view de nition and the source DTDs. We develop a metric of the quality of the inference algorithm's view DTD by formalizing the notions of so...

Rival firms often cooperate horizontally in order to share risks and achieve scale advantages in production or in their research and development projects. The output of these strategic alliances is usually sold by the individual ally company under its own brand and using its own marketing mix strategies. Marketing strategies create a cumulative effect that is reflected in brand value. Although ...

A user is only anonymous within a set of other users. Hence, the core functionality of an anonymity providing technique is to establish an anonymity set. In open environments, such as the Internet, the established anonymity sets in the whole are observable and change with every anonymous communication. We use this fact of changing anonymity sets and present a model where we can determine the pr...

All voting protocols proposed so far, with the exception of a few, have the property that the privacy of the ballot is only computational. In this paper we outline a new and conceptually simple approach allowing us to construct a protocol in which the privacy of the ballot is unconditional. Our basic idea is to modify the protocol of Fujioka, Okamoto and Ohta[10], which uses blind signatures so...

mebudipine is a new dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker, synthesized in our laboratory, for treatment of hypertension. it has shown a better efficacy than other drugs in this group. for assessing the risks of this drug, certain safety tests in the preclinical stage have been performed. in this study mutagenic effect of mebudipine was evaluated using ames assay that could assess the mutageni...

We present a system for efficient meta-data indexed querying of XML documents. Given the diversity of the information available in XML, it is very useful to annotate XML data with a wide variety of meta-data, such as quality and security assessments. We address the meta-data indexing problem of efficiently identifying the XML elements along a location step in an XPath query, that satisfy meta-d...

In our work we use queuing theory both for security (i.e. anonymity) and performance analysis. A well-known anonymity technique, the MIX method, which is the basis of most of today’s deployments, is the object of our investigation. We show shortcomings and problems in the MIX method and suggest possible workarounds. Our investigation reveals the level of security of MIX based systems and their ...

Box MIX and MIXAL are available on the UCSD B6700; although, according to Ken Bowles, they are not currently being handled as fully supported products, and there may be some remaining bugs in the systems. However, MIX and MIXAL are available for network users, and Ken says they will be happy to receive notification of any errors found in the MIX and MIXAL and will attempt to get corrections mad...

This article reported patch antenna functioning at Wi- Fi and 5G bands. Wi-Fi band (2.4 GHz) is obtained by loading Epsilon Negative Transmission Line (ENGTL) metamaterials into the radiating (3.5 GHz). To acquire Circular Polarization (CP) band, conventional square embedded with poly fractals. The experimental simulated data are in close proximity. impedance bandwidth 4.01% 10.68% band. CP 2.4...
