A comparison of the Latin and Middle English versions of Alfonso of Jaen's Epistola solitarii.

The BEAST-APP decoding algorithm is a low-complexity bidirectional algorithm that searches code trees to find the list of the most likely codewords, which are used to compute approximate a posteriori probabilities (APPs) of the transmitted symbols. It can be applied to APP-decoding of any linear block code, as well as in iterative structures for decoding concatenated block codes. Previous work has

Om Mårtensfirandet bland studenterna vid Lunds universitet ur ett historiskt perspektiv.

Continuous exposure of young mongolian gerbils to trichloroethylene (230 ppm) was started at different times during the first month of life. The onset of exposure was accompanied by an increased number of deaths among the pups and by an immediate reduction in growth rate. The proportion of dead pups was greatest when exposure was started at birth, and decreased rapidly with increasing age at onset

The steady and pulsative turbulent flows in curved pipes have been computed with two different modeling approaches; the Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) technique and Large Eddy Simulations (LES). The results from computations of the flow in a single bended pipe have been compared to experimental data. The comparisons show poor agreement for the RANS technique at the exit of the bend, while

The physiological characteristics of native and bacterial exopolysaccharides (EPS) in oats and barley-based fermented products were studied in relation to the physico-chemical properties. Article I presents a parallel-randomized double blind clinical trial using a dairy-based product (control), an oat-based product (fermented with V2, which is a mixture (1:1) of Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. Bu

Extremely large filled-aperture ground-based optical-IR telescopes, or ELTs, ranging from 20 to 100m in diameter, are now being proposed. The all-important choice of the aperture must clearly be driven by the potential science offered. We here highlight science goals from the Leiden Workshop in May 2001 suggesting that for certain critical observations the largest possible aperture - assumed to be

This paper deals with line-drawings, obtained from images of piecewise planar objects after edge detection. Such images are used e.g. for navigation and recognition. In order to be a possible image of a three dimensional piecewise planar object, it has to obey some projective conditions. Criteria for a line-drawing to be correct is given in this paper, along with methods to find possible interpret
