Abstract The Unicode Standard, version 1.1, and ISO/IEC 10646-1:1993(E) jointly define a 16 bit character set (hereafter referred to as Unicode) which encompasses most of the world's writing systems. However, Internet mail (S...

The Unicode Standard, version 1.1, and ISO/IEC 10646-1:1993(E) jointly define a 16 bit character set (hereafter referred to as Unicode) which encompasses most of the world’s writing systems. However, Internet mail (STD 11, RFC 822) currently supports only 7-bit US ASCII as a character set. MIME (RFC 1521 and RFC 1522) extends Internet mail to support different media types and character sets, an...

A large potential to accelerate scientific algorithms lies in a hardware structure, which is a direct match to the structure of the algorithm. The MoM-3 is a universal accelerating co-processor, which can be configured to implement performace critical parts of an algorithm directly in hardware. The MoM-3 architecture supports fine grain parallelism by use of a highly reconfigurable ALU (rALU), ...

s cience and policymaking are uneasy partners. In an address at the press conference to release the 1983 National Research Council report on risk assessment in the Federal Government, the former administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Will iam D. Ruckelshaus, said: “The main reason for the uneasiness lies, I think, in the conflict between the way science really works an...
