The aim of this study is to examine Shanghai residents’ perceptions of the impact of 2010 EXPO and to identify different groups of residents. A survey using a 42-item impact scale was conducted in Shanghai. The results showed that there were five factors of positive impacts and three of negative impacts. The majority of respondents perceived the impacts of 2010 EXPO positively, particularly tho...

We report on selected research presented at the ACC 66th Annual Scientific Session and Expo, including sessions on proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 inhibitors, anti-Xa anticoagulants, and a direct thrombin inhibitor.

A method was developed to increase the throughput of the Hewlett Packard, 98635A floating point processor equipped, model 236C computer. The increase was carried out in three phases each with a clock and or chip change during the modification. Two programs were written to test the results and evaluate the increases in performance made to the computer. The first one shows reduction in processing...

We define a framework to reason about sound implemen-tations of equational theories in the presence of an adap-tive adversary. In particular, we focus on soundess of staticequivalence. We illustrate our framework on several equa-tional theories: symmetric encryption, XOR, modular expo-nentiation and also joint theories of encryption and modu-lar exponentiation as well as...

The 2022 World Fair (aka ‘Expo’) held in Dubai has recently drawn to a close. next Expo will be hosted by Buenos Aires 2023; the one after that staged Osaka 2025. These Expos are all linked first of them all: Great Exhibition London 1851. To sure, term ‘great’ is an understatement. 1851 event, and those followed it, were—and remain—colossal undertakings. They take years planning, attract millio...

background: the extremely low-frequency electromagnetic field (elf-emf), mainly emitted by electric transmission lines and household electronic appliances, is becoming a worldwide health risk. it is imperative to investigate the biological impacts of elf-emf and to identify products that are resistant to the radiation from 50 hz elf-emf. in this study, we investigated the biological impacts of ...
