In many public-key cryptosystems, modular multiplication (MM) with large integers is the most critical and time-consuming operation. Therefore, numerous algorithms and hardware implementation have been done in past to carry out the MM more quickly, and Montgomery’s algorithm is one of the most well-known MM algorithms. The paper presents the modified Montgomery’s algorithm implementation using VLSI circuits to speed up the encryption/decryption process. The design have a low-cost and high-performance Montgomery modular multiplier which receives and outputs the data with binary representation and uses only one-level carry-save adder (CSA) to avoid the carry propagation at each addition operation. The proposed project reduces the hardware cost and short critical path delay at the expense of extra clock cycles for completing one modular multiplication. Experimental results show that the proposed Montgomery modular multiplier can achieve higher performance and significant area–time product improvement when compared with previous designs. The implementation is carried out using Quartus 9.1 cyclone II device family.
Fire Extinguisher Robot Using Ultrasonic Camera and Wi-Fi Network Controlled with Android Smartphone

Fire disasters can occur anytime and result in high losses. It is often that fire fighters cannot access the source of fire due to the damage of building and very high temperature, or even due to the presence of explosive materials. With such constraints and high risk in the handling of the fire, a technological breakthrough that can help fighting the fire is necessary. Our paper proposed the use of robots to extinguish the fire that can be controlled from a specified distance in order to reduce the risk. A fire extinguisher robot was assembled with the intention to extinguish the fire by using a water pump as actuators. The robot movement was controlled using Android smartphones via Wi-fi networks utilizing Wi-fi module contained in the robot. User commands were sent to the microcontroller on the robot and then translated into robotic movement. We used ATMega8 as main microcontroller in the robot. The robot was equipped with cameras and ultrasonic sensors. The camera played role in giving feedback to user and in finding the source of fire. Ultrasonic sensors were used to avoid collisions during movement. Feedback provided by camera on the robot displayed on a screen of smartphone. In lab, testing environment the robot can move following the user command such as turn right, turn left, forward and backward. The ultrasonic sensors worked well that the robot can be stopped at a distance of less than 15 cm. In the fire test, the robot can perform the task properly to extinguish the fire.
Applying social network analysis in economic geography : theoretical and methodological issues

Social network analysis attracts increasing attention in economic geography. We claim social network analysis is a promising tool for empirically investigating the structure and evolution of inter-organizational interaction and knowledge flows within and across regions. However, the potential of the application of network methodology to regional issues is far from exhausted. The aim of our paper is twofold. The first objective is to shed light on the untapped potential of social network analysis techniques in economic geography: we set out some theoretical challenges concerning the static and dynamic analysis of networks in geography. Basically, we claim that network analysis has a huge potential to enrich the literature on clusters, regional innovation systems and knowledge spillovers. The second objective is to describe how these challenges can be met through the application of network analysis techniques, using primary (survey) and secondary (patent) data. We argue that the choice between these two types of data has strong implications for the type of research questions that can be dealt with in economic geograhy, such as the feasibility of dynamic network analysis.
USING WIKIPEDIA FOR RETRIEVING ARABIC DOCUMENTS

Although stemming techniques outperform other techniques of text processing, they miss many cases that needs to be conflated into one class. For instance, synonyms that belong to different roots can"t be conflated to the same class using stemming techniques. In this work, we investigate a new technique for information retrieval for Arabic documents based on concepts to overcome the above problems using the Arabic Wikipedia project. Word sense disambiguation is used for terms that have multiple senses. The new technique has been evaluated with different word sense disambiguation techniques. It also has been examined with different version of Arabic Wikipedia dumps to show that the performance increases evolutionary as Wikipedia develop. After comparing with the results of experiments that use stemming techniques in (Disooqi and Arafa, 2009), although the stemming technique is still better, the continuous growth of Wikipedia improves the performance. Results show that the information retrieval performance is improving as Wikipedia develops and grows.
QUANTUM STATISTICS OF METASTABLE LIQUID HELIUM FRÉDÉRIC CAUPIN AND SÉBASTIEN BALIBAR

Experimental studies of homogeneous cavitation give information on the limit of stability of liquids, the “spinodal limit”. The slope of the spinodal line in the (P − T ) plane has been related to the sign of the isobaric expansion coefficient of the liquid. Using quantum statistics, we give theoretical arguments to explain the existence of a minimum in the spinodal line of liquid helium 3, for which experimental evidence has been reported. The calculations involve the shape of the dispersion curve of collective excitations. We present a similar analysis in the case of superfluid helium 4; we also consider the overpressurized region, and the location of the superfluid transition line in the metastable regions.
1-1-2011 Higher Dimensional Lattice Chains and Delannoy Numbers

Fix nonnegative integers n1, . , nd, and let L denote the lattice of points (a1, . . . , ad) ∈ Zd that satisfy 0 ≤ ai ≤ ni for 1 ≤ i ≤ d. Let L be partially ordered by the usual dominance ordering. In this paper we use elementary combinatorial arguments to derive new expressions for the number of chains and the number of Delannoy paths in L. Setting ni = n (for all i) in these expressions yields a new proof of a recent result of Duichi and Sulanke [9] relating the total number of chains to the central Delannoy numbers. We also give a novel derivation of the generating functions for these numbers in arbitrary dimension.

Revisiting Preferences and Argumentation : Technical Report

The ASPIC framework is intermediate in abstraction between Dung’s argumentation framework and concrete instantiating logics. This paper generalises ASPIC to accommodate classical logic instantiations, and adopts a new proposal for evaluating extensions: attacks are used to define the notion of conflict-free sets, while the defeats obtained by applying preferences to attacks, are exclusively used to determine the acceptability of arguments. Key properties and rationality postulates are then shown to hold for the new framework.
Postnatal adjustment of Chinese parents : A two-wave panel study in Taiwan

T his study focused on examining the relationships between stress, resources, and adjustment of Chinese married mothers and fathers following childbirth. Guided by a generic theoretical model of parenthood transition, the aim of the current study was threefold. First, longitudinal data were collected to clarify the impact of parenthood from 6 weeks postnatal (Time 1) to 6 months postnatal (Time 2). A diachronic design is more advantageous in making causal inferences as baseline levels of mental health and marital satisfaction can be controlled. Second, a gender-balanced design was adopted to examine the transition processes for both men and women to overcome our shortcomings in understanding men’s experiences. Third, this study was conducted in a Chinese society to examine the transition to parenthood as embedded in this particular cultural context. A total of 483 parents (253 females, 230 males) took part in this two-wave panel study. Hierarchical multiple regression analyses and structural equation modelling techniques were used to test for direct, moderation, and mediation effects of marital congruence and social support as resources. Results showed that (a) parental stress had negative effects on mental health and marital satisfaction, and these relationships were robust across time and gender; (b) marital congruence and social support had direct as well as mediation effects on adjustment; (c) marital congruence also had moderation (stress buffering) effects on the stress/mental health relationship; (d) over the half-year period, there were no significant changes in stress and adjustment outcomes, yet marital congruence and social support significantly declined, and this trend was the same for both sexes; (e) although males and females did not differ in marital congruence and social support, women reported higher stress, more psychological symptoms, and lower marital satisfaction than men. These gender differences did not change over time. These results were discussed in relation to existing theories and research, as well as the distinct characteristics of the contemporary Chinese society.
Benchmarking e-Learning in UK higher education

In early 2006 a new programme was launched aimed at benchmarking e-learning development across the UK higher education sector. The programme represents an early stage in the Higher Education Funding Council for England ten-year e-learning strategy, acknowledging the need to take stock of progress. This paper describes the background to the benchmarking programme, its approach, and some findings from the pilot.
Building heterogeneous ensembles by pooling homogeneous ones

In ensemble methods, the outputs of a collection of diverse classifiers are combined in the expectation that the global prediction be more accurate than the individual ones. Heterogeneous ensembles consist of predictors of different types, which are likely to have different biases. If these biases are complementary, the combination of their decisions is beneficial. In this work, a family of heterogeneous ensembles is built by pooling classifiers from M homogeneous ensembles of different types of size T. Depending on the fraction of base classifiers of each type, a particular heterogeneous combination in this family is represented by a point in a regular simplex in M dimensions. The M vertices of this simplex represent the different homogeneous ensembles. A displacement away from one of these vertices effects a smooth transformation of the corresponding homogeneous ensemble into a heterogeneous one. The optimal composition of such heterogeneous ensemble can be determined using cross-validation or, if bootstrap samples are used to build the individual classifiers, out-of-bag data. An empirical analysis of such combinations of bootstraped ensembles composed of neural networks, SVMs, and random trees (i.e. from a standard random forest) illustrates the gains that can be achieved by this heterogeneous ensemble creation method.
EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON MICROWAVE-VACUUM DRYING OF ALFALFA

The experimental study on microwave-vacuum drying of green alfalfa in the drying apparatus of the continuous operation were a research objective. Carotene retention in microwave-vacuum drying process was the main object of this research. Carotene retention during the period of storage of the dried alfalfa was investigated. It is set that microwavevacuum drying ensures good carotene retention in the drying process of green alfalfa and during storage of the dried alfalfa. Low level of carotene destruction in microwave-vacuum drying process is interpreted by the fact that use of vacuum allows to realize drying at lower temperature. Low level of carotene destruction during storage of the dried alfalfa hypothetically is interpreted by the isomerization of carotene reducing its oxidation. The method of microwave-vacuum drying is perspective for the organization of industrial drying of forage and officinal herbs.
A VIRTUAL CO-CREATION MODEL OF THE HIJAB FASHION INDUSTRY IN INDONESIA

All stakeholders, internal and external, need to collaborate to coordinate their thoughts, meanings, and actions to create value together – value co-creation. Sources of ideas and competencies do not only come from internal stakeholders of business but also from external stakeholders such as customers. The lack of collaboration between internal and external stakeholders becomes the issue that may threaten business sustainability. It can be argued that the development of ICT, such as in the form of websites, makes it easier to co-create value. In this article, we present research that looks into virtual co-creation between customers and providers occurring in websites in the hijab fashion industry in Bandung. The research aims to redesign a conceptual model for virtual cocreation based on customers’ motivation. Data were collected using questionnaires and analyzed using partial least square structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM). The result shows that customers have certain motives when it comes to participating in customer-and-customer interaction and customer-and-provider interaction.

The Effects of Affiliative Motivation and Perspective Taking on Social Tuning An Interactive Qualifying Project Report : Submitted to the Faculty of the WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfillment of the requirements

This study examined the effects of affiliative motivation, or the desire to get along with someone, and perspective taking, or the ability to adopt another person’s views, on social tuning. Participants interacted with either a nice or rude experimenter (affiliative motivation manipulation) who was always wearing a pro-homosexuality tshirt. All participants then completed a sentence unscrambling task, and half unscrambled neutral sentences and half unscrambles perspective-taking oriented sentences. Their implicit and explicit attitudes were measured to determine the extent to which they tuned toward the experimenter. Results show that participants who had affiliative motivation were more likely to tune towards the experimenter than those who had low affiliative motivation. Perspective-taking did not have a significant influence on tuning. In conclusion, this study supports shared reality theory and the importance of affiliative motivation in the tuning process.
A hemi-contusive cervical spinal cord injury model with displacement control in rats

The present study is aimed to develop a hemi-contusive injury model of cervical spinal cord injury (SCI) with displacement control at a higher contusive speed, and demonstrates unilateral cord tissue loss and ipsilateral forelimbs impairment. Ten adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to the hemi-contusion SCI. 1.5-mm-indiameter cylinder impactor 22.5° laterally and 1.4 mm off-set was driven to compress unilateral C5 cord 2.2 mm at 600 mm/s. Forelimb functional assessments, including Montoya staircase task, cylinder rearing test and grooming test, were performed before and after injury. At 12 weeks post-injury, spared gray, white matter, and lesion area were calculated on a series of transverse cord sections. Average contusive displacement, speed and compressive force were 2.196±0.003 mm, 598.5±1.4 mm/s and 1.462±0.117 N respectively. The unilateral contusive injury resulted in ipsilateral tissue loss of anterior horn and lateral funiculus, while the ipsilateral dorsal funiculus and dorsal horn and contralateral cord were intact. In epicenter, average lesion area is 1.56±0.30 mm2, and percentage of white and gray matter area accounted for 40±14% and 41±12% respectively. The ipsilateral forelimb exhibited sustained impairments in ipsilateral forelimb motor function after injury. The present study showed that the hemicontusive SCI model with displacement control achieved consistent contusive displacement and force at a higher speed. The spinal cord tissue loss was confined within ipsilateral cord. The ipsilateral forelimb exhibited sustained impairments in motor function after injury while contralateral forelimb was intact. Our study provides an alternative method to establish a contusive SCI model for neuroprotective strategies.
Influence of rare earth elements ( Sc , La , Gd and Lu ) on the luminescent properties of green phosphor Y 2 SiO 5 : Ce , Tb

Systematic studies on CL and PL for rare earths (Sc, La, Gd and Lu) doped Y2SiO5:Ce,Tb phosphor were performed and the formula (Y0.965 xRxTb0.03Ce0.005)2SiO5 (R = Sc, La, Gd and Lu) was applied to represent the compositions of the samples. Sensitizing influence of Ce on Tb can only be observed with the excitation of cathode rays and 355 nm UV. For the La doped system, the PL intensity increased nearly 30% at x = 0.03; and for the Lu doped system, the intensity increased about 20% at x = 0.20. Whereas doping of the Gd and the Sc reduced the intensity: at x = 0.3, the PL intensity decreased 10% for the Gd doped system and about 25% for Sc. CL measurements showed that except the Sc, other rare earths doping improved the intensities: the La doping made the intensity enhancement of about 10% at x = 0.03; the Gd 35% at x = 0.1–0.3 and Lu 25% at x = 0.1–0.2. For the Sc doped samples, the CL intensity decreased about 25% at x = 0.2. The energy transfer processes were discussed for the Gd doped samples. Two transfer processes from the Gd to the Tb were proposed: Gd! Tb and Gd! Ce! Tb. 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
INTEGRATED SYSTEM FOR DEVELOPING SEMANTICALLY-ENHANCED ARCHIVE eCONTENT

This paper addresses the problem of knowledge processing from historical documents available in archives. Thus, we propose an integrated solution which performs information extraction and knowledge acquisition on one hand and information and knowledge retrieval on the other hand. We present a method that adapts the Text2Onto framework to semi-automatically extract relevant information from the documents content through lexical and semantic text annotation. The semantic annotations will further populate a domain ontology which is used in information and knowledge retrieval. We also present a method for querying the digital knowledge base of historical documents in the Romanian natural language. The method is augmented with suggestions and word meaning disambiguation. We tested and validated our integrated solution on a set of documents addressing the history of Transylvania.
Syddansk Universitet Remodularizing Java Programs for Improved Locality of Feature Implementations in Source

Explicit traceability between features and source code is known to help programmers to understand and modify programs during maintenance tasks. However, the complex relations between features and their implementations are not evident from the source code of object-oriented Java programs. Consequently, the implementations of individual features are difficult to locate, comprehend, and modify in isolation. In this paper, we present a novel remodularization approach that improves the representation of features in the source code of Java programs. Both forward and reverse restructurings are supported through on-demand bidirectional restructuring between feature-oriented and objectoriented decompositions. The approach includes a feature location phase based on tracing of program execution, a feature representation phase that reallocates classes into a new package structure based on single-feature and multi-feature packages, and an annotationbased reverse transformation of code. Case studies performed on two open-source projects indicate that our approach requires relatively little manual effort and reduces tangling and scattering of feature implementations in the source code. © 2010 Elsevier B.V.
