Market-based task allocation in distributed satellite systems
PhD thesis under Dr Jason Noble at the University of Southampton, 2008-2012
This thesis addresses the problem of task allocation in a distributed satellite system. These spacecraft specialise in different functions, and must collaborate to complete the mission objectives. The energy available for task execution and communication is, however, extremely limited, which poses a challenging design problem. I propose the use of a market-based, multi-agent approach to achieve the necessary macro-level behaviour. The development and verification of this allocation mechanism constitutes the first major objective of this thesis. Although numerous examples of task allocation in related systems exist, I found a worrying disconnect between our general, theoretical knowledge of task allocation, and the specific application thereof. General analyses of abstracted task allocation exist, and specific implementations have been constructed in a heuristic way, but very little work navigates between these two extremes. My second major objective therefore contributes to mapping the problem space. The proposed task allocation mechanism is based on human labour markets in order to obtain similar robustness and flexibility. It uses fully distributed auctions to efficiently allocate tasks in volatile networks, without any global knowledge of the system state. The energy required for communication is constant, irrespective of the size of the network, resulting in a highly scalable allocation mechanism.
To find the area in parameter space where market-based control is the more suitable solution, when compared to a centralised approach, I characterised the allocation mechanism in terms of network size, node failure rate, and robustness. The relationship between communication cost and topology is explored by looking at the overheads associated with different static topologies, and the impact of communication distance. The ability of the allocation mechanism to cope with realistic Keplerian dynamics is also confirmed. Finally, I investigate the difference in performance between the allocation mechanism, as an example of a cooperative market, and a competitive scenario where adaptive agents compete to maximise their revenue. Results show that competitive markets are subject to positive feedback loops which can result in inferior performance for sparsely connected and heavily loaded networks.
This exploration of the system parameters is treated as a traversal of the problem space, resulting in an emergent taxonomy of both problem and solution elements.
This project interacts with a number of interesting research fields: complexity science, algorithmic trading, multi-agent systems
Changing network topology as satellites orbit around the earth. As spacecraft move further apart, communication links are broken, changing the routes required to manage the network.

Ferengi writing looks much like a flowchart, with many 60 degree angles. Text radiates from the center outward, which would indicate the direction of writing as well. Ferengi text can be written with or without a central hexagon, radiating from one side of a hexagon only and in single horizontal lines on signs and short notes. (TNG: "Ménage à Troi"; DS9: "Body Parts").
Keiko O'Brien's classroom featured a chart depicting the English, the Bajoran, the Cardassian, and the Ferengi alphabet. The chart listed some sixty plus Ferengi language symbols (DS9: "The Nagus", "In the Hands of the Prophets", "Cardassians")
Ferengi Lexis Edit
 - Nagus - title of authority; esp. Grand Nagus, leader of the Ferengi Alliance. This is, presumably, an English translation, as certain Earth leaders (i.e. those of Ethiopia) have also borne the title of Nagus. (DS9: "The Nagus")

4.1. Monitoring General Storage Cluster Parameters¶
By monitoring general parameters, you can get detailed information about all components of the storage cluster, its overall status and health. To display this information, use the
vstorage -c top command. For example:
The command above shows detailed information about the
stor1 cluster. The general parameters (highlighted in red) are as follows.
Overall status of the cluster:
- All chunk servers in the cluster are active.
- There is not enough information about the cluster state (e.g., because the master MDS server was elected a while ago).
- Some of the chunk servers in the cluster are inactive.
- The cluster has too many inactive chunk servers; the automatic replication is disabled.
- SMART warning
- One or more physical disks attached to cluster nodes are in pre-failure condition. For details, see Monitoring Physical Disks.
Amount of disk space in the cluster:
- Free physical disk space in the cluster.
- Amount of logical disk space available to clients. Allocatable disk space is calculated on the basis of the current replication parameters and free disk space on chunk servers. It may also be limited by license.
For more information on monitoring and understanding disk space usage in clusters, see Understanding Disk Space Usage.
- MDS nodes
- Number of active MDS servers as compared to the total number of MDS servers configured for the cluster.
- epoch time
- Time elapsed since the MDS master server election.
- CS nodes
Number of active chunk servers as compared to the total number of chunk servers configured for the cluster.
The information in parentheses informs you about the number of these chunk servers:
- Active chunk servers (avail.) that are currently up and running in the cluster;
- Inactive chunk servers (inactive) that are temporarily unavailable. A chunk server is marked as inactive during its first 5 minutes of inactivity.
- Offline chunk servers (offline) that have been inactive for more than 5 minutes. A chunk server changes its state to offline after 5 minutes of inactivity. Once the state is changed to offline, the cluster starts replicating data to restore the chunks that were stored on the offline chunk server.
- Key number under which the license is registered on the Key Authentication server and license state.
- Replication settings. The normal number of chunk replicas and the limit after which a chunk gets blocked until recovered.
Disks IO activity in the cluster:
- Speed of read and write I/O operations, in bytes per second.
- Number of read and write I/O operations per second.

This year, in partnership with Launceston LINC, the Tamar Valley Peace Trust invites School students to make a promise to Peace; to write a message or draw an image of what Peace means to them.
We have created a Peace Dove template (attached) on which students can write a message or create an image. Once students have finished being creative with their Peace dove and cut them out, Attach to some string to create a bunting for your class and we will hang them in the window at Launceston LINC.
- Discuss Peace in class – could be as simple as reading a book.
- Print enough doves for your students
- Encourage student's to express what peace means to them by writing or drawing on both sides of the dove (as they will be displayed on glass and seen from both sides).
- Ask students to cut out the dove.
- Attach your work to string to create bunting.
Return date: Please have the doves back to Launceston LINC by the end of Term 2
Please email _EMAIL_ if you would like your School dove as a PDF and would like more information.
We have placed your School's logo on the Dove as a way of demonstrating your organisation or school's role in helping 'teach' Peace. Or you may use the Dove with no school logos. Due to student privacy and the public location of the final works it is an individual choice regarding the inclusion of the student's name.
We look forward to seeing the wonderful doves that the students create.
They will be displayed in the ground floor window of Launceston LINC from Monday 30th July until the end of August 2018.
We urge you to engage your students in this process and a discussion about peace – and the concept of non-violent conflict resolution. Students may define peace in a range of ways – maybe the absence of bullying, war or domestic violence – or greater cultural or environmental harmony. The lens they use does not matter: the goal is to think about how they, as individuals, can help create a kinder society. This message so aptly supports the Education Department's recently launched Respectful Schools: Respectful Behavior paper.

the World's Fastest Bicycle
Mr Lachlan Thompson FIEAust.
Research Leader Sports Technology, Department of Aerospace
Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology, Melbourne, Australia
Australian track cyclists won impressive victories at the
1995, '96 and '97 World Track Championships and the 15th Commonwealth
Games. The Australian team used with stunning effect a unique
carbon fibre monocoque bicycle designed and built by a project
team from the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT
University) and the Australian Institute of Sport (AIS). Developed
in consultation with Charlie Walsh, the national track cycling
coach, this new bicycle, the 'AIS/RMIT Superbike', has allowed
the Australian riders like Shane Kelly to set new records.
Continued development has resulted in over twelve World Championship
titles and four world records. Including the World record
for the kilometre Individual Time Trial set by Shane Kelly
development and application of new wind tunnel testing techniques
have resulted in a fifteen per cent reduction in power over
the traditional diamond frame. Extensive use of a water tunnel
and wind tunnel have enabled the team to optimise the frame
profile for minimum aerodynamic interference from the rider's
leg motion. Structural design loads were derived from track
testing with strain gauged frames. Finite element analysis
techniques were validated through extensive material testing.
Throughout the development program extensive use was made
of validated performance simulation. The simulation provided
evaluation of stiffness, aerodynamics and weight. These simulations
enabled rapid assessment of concepts. Track testing with power
meters and strain gauged frames were used to refine design
data and wind tunnel test techniques.
order to produce the resulting bicycle new manufacturing techniques
had to be developed. Unlike most equipment used by elite athletes
the AIS/RMIT 'Superbike' has been designed for low cost, high
volume manufacture. The hollow frame is moulded as a single
unit in a one shot process suitable for automation. The frame
was designed to accept standard group sets and wheels. The
AIS and RMIT University has lodged patents on the unique features
of the manufacturing process. Bicycle Technologies Pty Ltd
(Australia) has commenced commercial manufacture of track
and road variants. The New Zealand National Track Cycling
Team has selected the 'Superbike' for the 1997 and 1999 seasons.
It is anticipated that the technology will enable a new manufacturing
industry to be developed in Australia.
engineering development has resulted in the project winning
an Engineering Excellence Award from the Institution of Engineers
Australia, two Innovation Awards and the 1995 Velo News Award
for "Best Technical Development for 1995 in Road or Track".
This paper discuses the engineering techniques, research and
project management required to create the Australian Superbike.
stunning ride by Chris Boardman on the Lotus Bicycle(1)
in the Barcelona Olympics heralded a dramatic change in Olympic
track cycling. The UCI's rule change opened the door for the
monocoque bicycle to show its potential. Unlike the much later
Lotus Sport, Boardman's bicycle was a one-off with highly
specialised components. His ride did however set the stage
for a new era in competitive cycling
Chris Boardman rode to Olympic Gold the RMIT and AIS project
team set out to build a 'Superbike'. The RMIT-AIS team sought
a design that optimises weight, stiffness and aerodynamics
while conforming to the rules of the Union Cyclist Internationale
(UCI). The University was at the time seeking a suitable project
to demonstrate new low cost advanced composite manufacturing
techniques. The project team included engineers, technicians
and students from RMIT Aerospace Engineering, the AIS and
RMIT Industrial Design.
Olympic track cycling coach Charlie Walsh defined the initial
design criteria with the project team in late 1992. The resulting
bicycle must use a conventional group set of standard(3,6)
cranks, bearings, brakes, wheels, forks, handlebars, seat,
etc. Further criteria imposed by RMIT was that the design
must equal or exceed the structural stiffness of a steel bicycle
while offering lower aerodynamic drag and weight without compromising
reliability. It was also desirable for commercial purposes
that the resulting design be suitable for low cost, high volume

this project the needs of the end user were paramount to the
success of the end product. Competition bicycles are made
to the rider's individual specific requirements. The client
specifications were defined and completely fulfilled. These
specifications included critical geometry as shown below and
certain subjective characteristics as ride and comfort. Stiffness,
strength, reliability and use of standard components were
systems engineering approach was adopted for the project.
A requirement analysis was undertaken to establish the
design criteria and project milestones. The project
plan and budget were developed using the findings of
this analysis. Riding position and frame geometry defined
by the AIS were checked against a current AIS Olympic
steel frame. This same frame was later used to define
minimum stiffness criteria.

written and validated. The mathematical model was validated
against actual track performances using the SRM dynamometer
crank system. This permitted an extensive analysis of each
component in the bicycle system including the rider. The results
of this investigation showed that the frame and front fork

analysis also identified that aerodynamic testing techniques
were not giving repeatable results of sufficient accuracy.
Development of improved wind tunnel techniques was considered
a high priority.
in design was maintained throughout the project by maintaining
design files and technical reports on each task. Coupon testing
provided material properties for the Finite Element Models(4)
(FEM). Laboratory tests were used to prove structural details
before progressing to track testing.
track and wind tunnel testing was used to validate design
changes. Each phase of the project has required critical evaluation
by both the design team and the national track cycling team.
Decisions were made at project or task meetings to ensure
prompt reporting of results and effective implementation of
prototype was required to undergo structural testing for stiffness
followed by a general inspection. Modal analysis is being
developed as a tool for non-destructive inspection and quality
control. This technique of vibration analysis(2)
will provide a cost effective "finger print" technique
for production quality control.
In order to minimise aerodynamic drag new and innovative wind
tunnel testing techniques were developed. This included the
use of artificial legs to accurately study the airflow over
the bicycle. With this unique rig the aerodynamics of the
complete system could be represented.
investigations showed that the rider's legs dramatically influenced
the flow pattern(6) and resulting drag.
To obtain accurate and repeatable wind tunnel results with
live athletes was extremely difficult. The sensitive wind
tunnel balance required precise knowledge of the centre of
mass in order to apply corrections for induced forces due
to moment couples. In the development of the 'Superbike' the
rider was replaced with a pair of lightweight Styrofoam®
legs. A similar lightweight torso, head and arms could also
be fitted. The rear wheel was driven by an electric motor
beneath the wind tunnel floor. A simple belt drive under the
floor also drove the front wheel. By having the motor and
drive system part of the bicycle accurate and repeatable drag
measurement was possible.
May 1993 the project team arrived at a basic conceptual design
for a carbon fibre monocoque bicycle. A prototype of this
design was built for initial testing. Wind tunnel testing
was carried out to refine the aerodynamic shape. The instrumented
prototype was evaluated on the track by world champion sprint
cyclist Gary Neiwand. This testing allowed the engineers to
determine handling characteristics and the loads encountered
during competition. The data obtained was used to optimise
prototypes for testing and competition has resulted
in the 'Superbike' meeting or exceeding all of the design
criteria. Independent tests on the 1994 variant by Dr.
Neil Craig of the South Australian Institute(6)
of Sport at the Adelaide Superdrome showed the 'Superbike'
to require 5% less power than the then current steel
AIS Olympic tubular frame.
improvement was made possible by designing a new wind
tunnel balance. The use of a 'hover board' bicycle mounting
eliminated balance interactions. This technique allowed
further refinement and development of the 'Superbike.

The requirement study showed that a one-size monocoque shell
could be developed to suit a wide range of rider size. One
single size of the 'Superbike' can accommodate riders from
1600 mm to 1900 mm in height.
'Superbike' is unique in that it has been designed from the
outset to be of a shape and structure that can be easily and
cheaply produced in high volume(3).

A WHO Meeting on the Promotion and Development of Traditional medicine was held in Geneva from 28 November to 2 December 1977. The consultation was convened in response to the considerable interest evinced in traditional medicine at the Thirtieth World Health Assembly in 1977 and in the subsequent requests by Member States for technical collaboration in organizing educational and research activities in this field.
The aim of the Meeting was to assemble expert representatives of the major systems of traditional medicine to work together and suggest a plan of action to promote and develop various aspects of traditional medicine.
The specific objectives were to make practical suggestions on policy guidelines for the provision of materials and techniques, collaboration among different systems of health care, health education of the public, manpower development, organization of health services, the future development of traditional medicine and its utilization, particularly in the national health services, and relevant research.
A major problem for special consideration was the effective collaboration of different practitioners and their integration into an overall national health care delivery system.
The theme of the Meeting was "Promotion and development of traditional medicine". This report follows the discussion at the Meeting and includes sections on:
- Traditional medicine in health care
- Reasons for the promotion of traditional medicine
- Utilization of traditional medicine in national health care systems
- Integration of traditional medicine and modern medicine
- Manpower development for traditional medicine
- Research promotion and development in traditional medicine

Network>WAN Failover & LB
WAN Failover and Load Balancing allows you to designate the Modem interface
for dialup backup or use the user-assigned OPT interface as
a Secondary backup WAN port. The Secondary WAN port can be used in a simple
active/passive setup, where traffic is only routed through the Secondary WAN
port if the Primary WAN port is down and/or unavailable. This feature is referred
to as basic failover. This allows the SonicWALL security appliance
to maintain a persistent connection for WAN port traffic by failing over to
the modem or a secondary WAN port. It can also be used in a more dynamic active/active
setup, where the administrator can choose a method of dividing outbound traffic
flows between the Primary fixed WAN port and the user-assigned Secondary WAN
port. This latter feature is referred to
as load balancing.
you begin, be sure you have configured a user-defined interface to mirror
the WAN port settings.
WAN Failover Caveats
WAN Failover and Load-Balancing applies to outbound-initiated traffic only;
it cannot be used to perform inbound load-balancing functions, such as what
a content switching or load-balancing appliance provides.
- Make sure that the SonicWALL security appliance has the proper NAT policies
for the Secondary WAN interface an incorrect or missing NAT Policy for
the Secondary WAN port is the most common problem seen when configuring WAN
Failover & Load-Balancing.
- The Primary and Secondary WAN ports cannot be on the same IP subnet; each
WAN connection must be on unique IP subnets in order to work properly.
- You cannot use the WAN failover feature if you have configured the SonicWALL
security appliance to use Transparent Mode in the Network > Settings page.
Setting Up WAN Failover and Load Balancing
The following are the steps to configuring WAN Failover and Load Balancing
on the SonicWALL security appliance:
- Configuring an interface as a Secondary WAN port
- Creating a NAT Policy for the Secondary WAN port
- Activating WAN Failover/Load-Balancing
- Choosing a WAN Failover/Load-Balancing method
- Setting Up Probe Monitoring
Configure WAN Failover to the Modem
If you are using the Modem as a backup connection for your WAN, enable WAN
failover to the modem. If your primary WAN connection fails, the TZ 170 SP
Wireless will automatically try to connect with the modem. It will then monitor
the WAN port, and switch back when it has a reliable connection again. To
configure WAN failover to the modem:
- In the Ethernet WAN Failover & Load Balancing section, check
Load Balancing box.
- Check the Enable Dial-Up Wan Failover box.
- Click Apply.
Configuring the OPT Interface as a Secondary WAN Port
On Network > Interfaces page, configure the OPT port
to be in WAN zone, and enter in the correct address settings provided by the
Secondary ISP. In
the example, the SonicWALL security appliance is acquiring its secondary WAN
address dynamically from ISP #2, using DHCP. Any interface added to the WAN
zone by default creates a NAT Policy allowing internal LAN subnets to NAT out
this Secondary WAN interface.
Creating a NAT Policy for the Secondary WAN Port
You need to create a NAT policy on your SonicWALL for WAN Failover. Follow
these steps to create a NAT policy on your SonicWALL using theor OPT interface:
- Select Network>NAT Policies.
- Click Add. The Add NAT Policy window is displayed.
- Select Any from the Original Source menu.
- Select OPT IP from the Translated
- Select Any from the Original Destination menu.
- Select Original from the Translated Destination menu.
- Select Any from the Original Service menu.
- Select Original from the Translated Service menu.
- Select X0 from the Inbound Interface menu.
- Select OPT interface from the
Outbound Interface menu.
- Make sure the Enable setting is checked.
- Click OK.
Activating WAN Failover and Load Balancing
To configure the SonicWALL for WAN failover and load balancing, follow the
- On the Network > WAN Failover & LB page, select
Enable Load Balancing.
- From the Secondary WAN Interface menu, select your secondary WAN interface.
- Enter a number between 5 and 300, in the Check Interface Every
_ Seconds field. You can use the default value of 5 seconds.
- In the Deactivate Interface after _ missed intervals field, enter a number
between 1 and 10. You can use the default value of 3. If the default
value is used,
then the interface is considered inactive after 3 successive attempts
at 5 seconds each.
- Enter a number between 1 and 10 in the Reactivate Interface after
_ successful intervals field. You can use the default value of
3. If the default value is
used, then the interface is considered active after 3 successive
attempts at 5
- Click Apply.
Choosing an Outbound Load Balancing Method
You need to choose a load balancing method. By default, the SonicWALL will
select Basic Active/Passive Failover as the method, but there are four load
balancing methods available:
Basic Active/Passive Failover: When this setting is selected,
the SonicWALL security appliance only sends traffic through the Secondary
WAN interface if
the Primary WAN interface has been marked inactive. The SonicWALL security
appliance is set to use this as the default load balancing method. If the
Primary WAN fails, then the SonicWALL security appliance reverts to this
of the ones described below. This mode will automatically return back to
using the Primary WAN interface once it has been restored (preempt mode).
has an associated Preempt and fail back to Primary WAN when possible checkbox.
When this checkbox is selected, the SonicWALL security appliance switches
back to sending its traffic across the Primary WAN interface when it resumes
to the SonicWALL security appliance's checks (the WAN's physical
link is restored, or the logical probe targets on the WAN port resume responding).
Per Destination Round-Robin: When this setting is selected,
the SonicWALL security appliance load-balances outgoing traffic on a per-destination
basis. This is
a simple load balancing method and, though not very granular, allows you
to utilize both links in a basic fashion (instead of the method above,
not utilize the capability of the Secondary WAN until the Primary WAN has
failed). The SonicWALL security appliance needs to examine outbound flows
in source IP and destination IP and make the determination as to which
interface to send the traffic out of and accept it back on. Please note
will be overridden by specific static route entries.
Spillover-Based: When this settings is selected, the user
can specify when the SonicWALL security appliance starts sending traffic
through the Secondary
WAN interface. This method allows you to control when and if the Secondary
interface is used. This method is used if you do not want outbound traffic
sent across the Secondary WAN unless the Primary WAN is overloaded. The
SonicWALL security appliance has a non-Management Interface exposed hold
timer set to
20 seconds – if the sustained outbound traffic across the Primary
WAN interface exceeds the administrator defined Kbps, then the SonicWALL
appliance spills outbound traffic to the Secondary WAN interface (on a
per-destination basis). The user entry box should not have a default entry
and be left empty
for the user. Please note this feature will be overridden by specific static
- Percentage Based:
When this setting is selected, you can specify the percentages of traffic
sent through the Primary WAN and Secondary WAN interfaces. This
method allows you to actively utilize both Primary and Secondary WAN interfaces.
Only one entry box is required (percentage for Primary WAN), as the SonicWALL
will auto-populate a non-user-editable entry box with the remaining percentage
assigned to the Secondary WAN interface. Please note this feature will
be overridden by specific static route entries.
WAN Load Balancing Statistics
The WAN Load Balancing Statistics section displays the following status
information on the Primary and Secondary WAN interfaces:
- Link Status
- Load Balance State
- Probe Monitoring
- New Connections
- Total Connections
- Rx Unicast Packets
- Rx Bytes
- Tx Unicast Packets
- Tx Bytes
- Tx Current Percentage
- Tx Current Throughput (KB/s)

How does one edit a Ziplink in a note?
I'm just learning how to use Ziplinks, but am running into a couple of frustrating problems:
 1. How do you edit a Ziplink that's in the text of a note?
 2. I'm trying to use "::" to append text to a new note created by a Ziplink, but when I open up the newly-created note, the $Text is empty.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Option-click to put the insertion point inside a link. Or use the arrow keys. Clicking a link in the normal way follows a link.
[[foo::bar]] should make a note name foo with a text "bar". It does for me! If it doesn't for you, contact support _EMAIL_ with the details.
Just for clarity this is a once-only thing that only and option when creating a ziplink. The result of using the ziplink notation is a normal Tinderbox text link. At this point, i.e. after using a ziplink if you want to add target text, navigate to the note and add the $Text there.
IOW, ziplinks describes a notation for rapid note creation/configuration rather than the link it then creates.
Thanks for the assist Mark.
I guess my editing question is: how can I open up an existing (blue) Ziplink so that I can see the brackets and any other operators, etc.? Option-click seems to only put me within the blue word/words, but doesn't reveal the underlying information…
You can't. The ziplink isn't "wrapped up". It's a shortcut for making a textlink in the usual way.
I think we are describing different things. I wasn't referring to syntax used within a ziplink during creation but the fact a new user might assume that having used a ziplink that they could return to the note later and edit the (now-text) link there assuming it had special (ziplink) properties.
Mark, Paul -
My question is about the syntax used within a Ziplink and if it's possible to 're-access' that syntax after the Ziplink has been created…but my understanding is that's not possible.
Correct. I can see this ambiguity and have made a mental note to add this to the documentation.

If I'm understanding correctly, let's say that I have a Ziplink [[foo::bar]] in the text of a note. I cannot edit that Ziplink to change it to [[foo|strong::bar]], rather as you point out, I would have to create a different/new Ziplink?
Thanks Mark. I really like Paul's post (in a different topic) about creating reading notes with Ziplinks. Really useful functionality. I'll keep at it.
Ignore my post; I deleted it. It's not relevant to this topic.
The idea of Ziplinks is that they're evaluated when you make them, and then they boom regular, first-class, normal Tinderbox links.
In this very specific case, where you want to change the anchor text for a correct link, you can make this change, but it doesn't have anything to do with ziplinks. To change the anchor text "foo" to "strong" you move the cursor to the blue link text "foo" and edit it like normal text to say "strong." This kind of editing of anchor text is possible for all Tinderbox links.
On a practical level, when I'm doing this, I usually start somewhere in the middle of the blue text, type what I want the new link anchor to be and then delete the extra text before and after what I've typed because I find it easier to manage. That's not necessary though. You can do it however makes sense for you.

^^^ Yes, this is exactly my approach as there's no method/UI (lest people assume otherwise) for editing anchor text. If we select the whole link and then type we are assuming the app can tell we are editing the anchor rather than replacing the anchor and link with something else. Now we have ziplinks deleting and starting over is more of an option. But, if doing that do make sure beforehand that you know to where the original link was pointed.
I've added this paragraph to the existing aTbRef article on ziplinks:
Note that ziplinks are a keyboard-centric method, albeit enhanced, of creating normal text links with normal link anchor text. Once the link is generated, the link anchor is no different from any other text link anchor, i.e. ziplinks do not create a special type of anchor text.
I'm open to a better wording. I can see that if not told otherwise a new user may simply assume ziplinks create some special type of anchor allowing re-use of the enhanced facilities (because no one told them otherwise!). I hope the above addresses that false assumption.
That makes sense to me!

Of Saints and Sharifian Kings in Morocco: Three Examples of the Politics of Reimagining History Through Reinventing King/Saint Relationship
MetadataShow full item record
The relationship between sainthood and the sharifian monarchy in Morocco has attracted much attention from researchers within the area of Moroccan studies. The analysis of this relationship can offer invaluable insights into the dynamics of Moroccan history because the king and the saint are widely regarded as the two most salient actors in this history. Yet, the study of the relationship between these two figures has suffered a tendency towards downplaying its historically dynamic nature, and essentializing the cultural constructs upon which it is predicated. In this thesis, I offer a revisionary reading of king/saint relationship through analyzing three examples from the 'Alawite dynasty. I argue that this relationship has been highly dynamic, and has capitalized on baraka and sharifism as versatile cultural constructs. More significantly, the dynamics of king/saint relationship in Moroccan culture allows the strategic reinvention of history in order to meet the demands of changing historical contexts.


Why is Blackberry also called Crackberry?
The popular phone, Blackberry is commonly given to people working for a company, since it's easy to use for reading company emails. The term "Crackberry" originated because people quickly became addicted to their Blackberrys just like they could become addicted to Crack cocaine – a real drug. Because many people are addicted to reading emails, the term Crackberry became quite popular as a fond nickname for Blackberry.

communication tends to slow data collection down the Programmable Load will be used in the analog control mode (or internal programmable step mode) driven by a stair step function from zero load current through full load current while simultaneously taking panel Voltage data at each Load current step. The stair step current ramp is repeated until voltage data for each panel in the string has been collected. The program will step through each string in the array collecting a full compliment of I-V and Temperature data including the last string which may be connected to a standard panel or string used for data comparison.
The scheme described above should be expected to collect a complete set of data for each panel in the array in less than 4 seconds.
System Software can be a Versatile Tool
Software / Soft-panel Evaluation Features:
After collecting real time performance data the software can be used to analyze the data to check relative and absolute performance of the individual panels in the array strings by comparing:
- Array string performance to each other.
- String performance to a Standard Panel.
- String performance to Solar Radiance Detector.
- Panel to Panel performance within a string or to standard.
A Measurement System of this type is key in analyzing true panel performance and accurate enough for comparative panel performance evaluation which may be of special interest when evaluating engineering prototype panels and new photovoltaic technologies. A Measurement System like this can be used at many different environmental sites due to its small size, flexibility and portability. In addition to panel performance, the information gathered with this system could be used to help predict and schedule maintenance and alert to required repairs so that the array can be kept at peak performance.

American Barn Owl
A Reference for the Caribbean, North and Central American Owls
American Barn Owl is widespread across the US, Mexico, Caribbean, and Central America. It is commonly associated with open country in lowland habitats. Habitat loss continues to be the major issue threatening this owl. Currently it is listed in half of the US states as a species of special concern and in southern Canada as either endangered or threatened. The Tytonidae family is one of only two owl families that make up all the world's owls. American Barn Owl is the only member of the Tytonidae family found on the mainland of North or Central America although other members of this family can be found in the Caribbean. Additionally, some owls found in the Caribbean that are considered American Barn Owls have different calls and appearance and will certainly be further split into their own unique species as more studies are done in the future. Here you will find videos, photos, audio recordings and a brief field notes section to help understand, identify, and enjoy this beautiful owl.

Hair color and static
The hypothesis that hair color will not affect the amount of static electricity produced is proven to be correct.
Natural hair is made from keratin which is the same type of protein that is also found on nails and skin. The static charges in our hair are carried by keratin. The proteins that determine the color of hair do not affect the ability of the keratin to carry static. Therefore, the color of hair does not influence the amount of static electricity produced by the hair. However, the physical properties of the hair, such as its thickness, can affect the amount of static charge produced on.
The experiment can also be done using a comb instead of a balloon.
Try to repeat the experiment using different types of hair like curly, wavy and straight.
What if the hair is wet? Do you think the amount of static electricity produced will be greater or less?

Is there sound coming from the Sun? (Beginner)
Hello, I am an amateur astronomer. I also enjoy working with sound and harmonic ratios. My question is, does sound emanate from the sun? Would such a sound wave create nodes that would allow for a planet's distance from the sun?
There are definitely some sound waves propagating through the Sun's interior. Because of the composition of the Sun (basically, a big ball of gas), sound waves can propagate quite easily in it. The study of such waves is called helioseismology. By observing oscillations at the surface of the Sun, astronomers try to figure out the patterns of the waves inside, which tells them a lot about the internal structure of the Sun (the same can be applied to other stars as well).
However, this doesn't mean that there is some sound coming from the Sun! Unlike light waves, sound waves cannot travel in vacuum: they need a medium in which they can travel. So since space is very close to empty, sound waves cannot propagate.

What are they?
Consider a star, having its mass is more than 3 times of the mass of the Sun. At the end of its life, it will collapse and will become more and more compact. This collapse will continue until the star becomes so compact and dense that Nothing…Nothing, not even light, would be able to pass through or escape from its gravity. Hence the star will become dark and it cann't be viewed directly.
Now we say that our Considered Star is A Black Hole.
Nature and More about Black Holes
As of now, our star is a black hole. Now it will emit strong gravitational waves due to its giant mass-density. These waves will be strongest near the black hole and weakest at last approach of the black hole. Thus the shape of black hole's effect area, will look like Whirl. This is the same as washing machine whirl..

The impact of electrical load shifting strategies on storage capacity and service provision of domestic hot water systems in residential buildings
conference contributionposted on 06.06.2017, 12:27 by Dashamir Marini, Richard Buswell, Christina Hopfe
Domestic hot water can accounts for up to 25% of the total domestic energy consumption in the UK and is demand driven. In the UK there has been a trend to replace traditional tank systems with instantaneous supply of hot water through gas fired combination boilers, leaving the space occupied by the tank to be repurposed by the household. This space is likely to become more critical as the need for storage increases in order to participate in peak load shifting when spaceheating and hot water is supplied by electricity rather than gas. The size of tank and hence the delivery of water at an appropriate temperature delivered when demand dictate is likely to become a point of tension in future systems. This paper introduces a notion of hot water 'service' that can be evaluated and used to compare the performance of different systems, along side more traditional metrics such as cost, power and tank size. The analysis compares several load shifting strategies through a TRNSYS model driven by high resolution hot water data (1sec) measured in a UK home. It is demonstrated that optimal tank size and the service the system can provide are very sensitive to the load shifting strategy applied.
The work was funded through the TEDDI call managed by the RCUK Digital Economy and Energy programmes (EPSRC Grant Number EP/M006735/1).

Thursday Throwing Tips –How to Throw a Curve Ball
The debate whether throwing curve balls is bad for the young arm or not will rage forever, I assume. Regardless, at some point kids need to learn how to throw a curve ball correctly. Additionally, it is important for most position players to stay on top with their throws. This does not mean that throwing with a three quarter delivery is not OK, but it is important for kids that throw sidearm to learn to get on top more, at least for position players.

Baseball Drill for How to Throw a Curve Ball
I have players bring an empty, plastic water bottle to practice. Players pair off and begin throwing their bottles to each other at the same time. This way they are getting more reps and there is no danger if the bottles collide. The object is to have the bottles thrown to where they spin head over head in a twelve to six rotation. This should be practice with the regular fastball grip with twelve-six rotation and with a curve ball hand action with the same spin. Once players get the feel of spinning the bottle correctly with both the fastball (hand behind) action and the curve ball (Hand on side like throwing a football), players try the same with a regular baseball, but with only one thrown at a time.
Coaches can also have players count the number of twelve six rotations they can get with the empty bottles. This how to throw a curve ball drill helps players understand the pitch, too, a good first step to perfecting the pitch.

Top tips for avoiding Chinese customs delays
According to the Foreign & Commonwealth Office, the value of UK exports to China have quadrupled between 2002 and 2012 and now stand at more than £12.5 billion, annually.
Any delivery into China has to go through Chinese Customs, and with that in mind, cross-border courier firm ParcelHero has put shared it's top three tips for avoiding customs hold-ups when sending shipments to China.
1: List each item on the Customs Invoice
The Customs Invoice or Customs Document is a crucial part of the customs clearance process for parcels to China. Customs Invoices should detail the items you are sending, their individual value and the reason you are sending them. The biggest mistake senders can make is to not list each item on the Customs Invoice.
ParcelHero's Head of Public Relations, David Jinks, says: "Many people will simply declare the contents of their parcel using one word, such as "Gift". They are unaware that Chinese Customs need more information about what is actually being shipped. When information is missing from the invoice it causes clearance delays. It's important to remember that Customs are a government authority and their rules are final and not negotiable.'
2: Provide valid contact details for the receiver
Chinese Customs authorities will contact your receiver as part of the Customs clearance process. This is a standard clearance protocol as China has extensive import regulations. The receiver or recipient of your parcel may be required to provide additional information to Chinese Customs. This could be an import licence, or confirmation of the reason for import. Therefore it's extremely important that you provide a valid telephone number and email address for your receiver in China when you book your parcel online. If customs are unable to contact your receiver then they will not be able to clear the goods for delivery.
3: Be aware of the Customs import regulations
Each country has different rules and regulations for what you can and cannot import. People are often unaware that they are responsible for ensuring the items they send to China are actually permitted for import into the country. Some items are prohibited, whilst other items may have specific restrictions in place in terms of quantities or values, so it's really important customers check the import rules and regulations for China prior to shipping. It's too late to check the rules after you have sent your parcel, and this could result in fines applied by Customs, or return shipping charges if your parcel is to be sent back.
goatChinese New Year will be celebrated around the world this week, as the Year of the Horse makes way for the Year of the Goat on 19 February.
The Year of the Goat is also referred to as the Year of the Sheep, and although this has led to some disagreements, it is generally accepted that both are names for the lunar new year. The symbol for the new year is 'yang' which can be used to refer to any sheep or goat.
According to some superstitions, most people born in the year of the sheep, or goat, will lead unhappy lives. Other superstitions around Chinese new year say that if you want to be lucky, you mustn't wash your hair on the first day of the new year, and you should wear red undies. Make of that what you will.


text: In this paper, a new algorithm based on Meshless Local Petrov-Galerking (MLPG) method is presented for analyzing the crack dynamic propagation. A new modified Moving Least Squares approximation is proposed to simplify the treatment of essential boundary conditions. Explicit central difference with lumped mass matrix is adopted for the time integral. Visibility criterion with crack edge node adding technique and the maximum hoop stress criterion are used to describe the crack propagation and forecast the crack propagation direction. Based on this algorithm, three-point bend specimen for impact fracture test is investigated. Comparing the results with those obtained by the laser caustic method and high-speed photographs, the accuracy of the present algorithm is proved.

"A participatory research using short film to start conversations about sexual violence among adolescents in order to reduce stigma towards the victims."
A film was chosen to raise the problem of stigma toward adolescent victims of sexual violence. The storyline was based on the experiences of adolescents in an urban community in Jakarta and the community's perception of the problem. The short film was used as a research instrument because it is an art form that the young researchers' assessed as the best medium to deliver their message. During the closed screening, the film was successful in raising the issue of exploitation, and in creating a discussion on the complexity of solutions for sexual violence. The short film was also used as a discussion starter for women community members (Ibu-Ibu PKK) and female adolescents, to express their opinions and ideas, which were then formulated for stakeholders' recommendations.
The purpose of the research was to provide direction/education to communities on how to respond to cases of sexual violence; to provide recommendations on how communities can create a safe space for everyone so that there is no more sexual violence.

Brock student launches interactive children's book for iPad
Published on February 05 2013
A Brock PhD student's idea for an interactive children's book has grown into reality.
Danielle Beckett, a certified classroom teacher who now studies learning and cognition in the Faculty of Education at the University, created The Gingerbread Man storybook for the iPad through her start-up company GroDigital.
And this is no ordinary touch and flip e-book for children. Beckett's creation also doubles as a reading assessment tool because of groundbreaking voice-recognition technology developed by computer science students from Brock.
"The voice recognition allows for the child to be assessed while reading and providing feedback to improve their reading performance," says Beckett. "With this project, we're spearheading voice recognition technology."
The interactive choose-your-own-adventure e-book is based upon the popular 19th-century fairy tale, The Gingerbread Man, and is designed for children ages 4 to 8.

The paper describes how to improve the reusability of iconic program modules. In iconic programming systems, the most important features for reuse are the customization of a module and combination of multiple modules without changing their definitions. In order to realize these features, we propose an object sharing technique, which allows components of multiple modules to represent the same object instance. Since a component in a module can be related to an object in another module, by adding a new function to an object in the latter module, the former module can be customized without changing its own definition. In addition, by relating a component to multiple objects in different modules, different functions defined in each module, can be combined easily. Finally, we show that the proposed technique realizes a useful software development style using templates, which will contribute to the improvement of the productivity

The didactic-pedagogical training of the university professor and of the quality of higher education must be revised due to the demands of the dynamic society and to the implementation of national curricular guidelines. Within this context, it was analyzed the perceptions of dentistry undergraduate of Universidade Estadual de Londrina teachers about the role of the teacher in the teaching and learning process. A qualitative research was carried out and data were collected through semi-structured interviews. Results showed that the teacher plays an essential role in the teaching and learning process, being the sole provider of knowledge. Teaching and learning strategies are based on oral transmission. Most part of the teachers got their didactic-pedagogical education from postgraduate Courses (Master's and/or PhD), that do not qualify teachers adequately for their teaching career. The teachers are not formally prepared for their teaching careers. In conclusion, findings from this study must be revised both regarding the training and the didactic-pedagogical upgrading in search of a general, humanist, critical and reflexive formation of the student.

text: Domiciliary oxygen therapy is commonly prescribed for patients with interstitial lung disease and hypoxemia, either at rest or during exertion, with the aim of improving symptoms and functional status.This study aimed to explore perspectives of adults with interstitial lung disease about domiciliary oxygen therapy, comparing insights from patients using and not using oxygen therapy.A qualitative study using semistructured interviews was undertaken on 24 adults residing in and near Melbourne, Australia who had a diagnosis of interstitial lung disease and met the Thoracic Society of Australia and New Zealand guidelines for domiciliary oxygen therapy. Study subjects included individuals who were oxygen-naive (n = 12) and oxygen-experienced (n = 12). Interviews were transcribed verbatim and coded independently by two investigators in accordance with the grounded theory method of analysis. Themes were established by consensus.Patients using domiciliary oxygen therapy described widespread variation in usage. Oxygen-naive patients expected oxygen therapy to relieve dyspnea, whereas oxygen-experienced patients emphasized the benefits of oxygen on other, non-dyspnea-related physical symptoms. Practical and psychosocial challenges of using oxygen therapy were raised by both groups of patients.This study highlights the different expectations and experiences of domiciliary oxygen therapy for adults with interstitial lung disease. It is important to understand and address patients' concerns about the use of oxygen therapy for these patients.


Little Nightmares 2: The Story Explained
Little Nightmares 2 is an adorably horrifying delight. However, due to the nature of the game, the story isn't exactly straightforward. With no dialogue between any of the characters, you have to piece together the plot from clues seen in the environments. Thankfully, we here at TheGamer are adept at deciphering obtuse narratives. So let's take a look at the story of Little Nightmares 2 and try to figure out exactly what has happened to this disturbing world of disgusting, fleshy, cannibalistic creatures.
(As you might suspect, massive spoiler warning for Little Nightmares 2.)
Little Nightmares stars a young boy with a bag on his head named Mono. Throughout the game, Mono is drawn to television sets that display a transmission of a long hallway that ends at a door with an eyeball symbol. He is able to enter the TVs as if they were portals, but he can never quite reach the door before he's sucked back out to the real world. This will be very important later on.
He starts his adventure by traveling through a trap-infested forest before arriving at a creepy old house. Inside, he finds rotting meat and mannequins that are most likely the taxidermied remains of unlucky humans. He also finds a little girl playing with a music box who is being held hostage in the basement. He frees the girl by smashing the door with an ax, but instead of thanking him, she scurries away as fast as she can.
Mono finds the girl upstairs and the two begin working together in order to survive. They eventually discover the owner of the house who is a violent Hunter wearing a sack over his head. Upon seeing the children trying to escape, he chases after them with a shotgun. The two break into a small shed where a spare shotgun is being stored and shoot The Hunter, which presumably kills him. They find a large, discarded door and use it as a raft to cross a body of water. This takes them to the shores of a place known as The Pale City.
The two enter a school that is surprisingly populated with children. Of course, they're not normal children since this is Little Nightmares. They're actually strange living dolls with porcelain heads known as Bullies. They're all being taught by a woman called The Teacher, who has the bizarre ability to stretch out her neck to absurd lengths like Elastic Man. After the girl is captured by the Bullies, Mono rescues her again and the two barely escape from the school. They walk out into the streets during a heavy rainstorm. It is here that the little girl finds a familiar yellow raincoat and puts it on. So yeah, she's Six from the first game. What a twist!
Mono and Six make it through a dark hospital filled with living mannequins who can only be stopped by light. The two end up in the lower levels where they encounter a huge man called The Doctor. He's a grotesquely bulbous figure who scampers across the ceiling like some sort of spider. After a tense chase, Mono manages to trick The Doctor into entering an incinerator and burns him alive.
At this point, the two have seen a giant spire that's far off in the distance of the city. This is the Signal Tower and it's broadcasting a transmission that warps the bodies and minds of those who watch it. It explains the strange mutations that the characters we've come across have. It also explains the appearance of the hypnotized citizens known as The Viewers, whose faces have been turned into featureless, sunken flesh folds.
Mono has been lured to various TV sets a few times and almost reached the end of the hallway before being pulled away by Six. Mono finally enters one of the TVs and makes it to the end of the hallway. He opens the door with the eyeball on it, which turns out to be a big mistake. This unleashes a ghostly entity known as The Thin Man, who begins to hunt down the children upon his release. While Mono manages to hide from him, Six isn't as lucky and is sucked into the TV. The Thin Man continues to chase Mono until he's finally cornered in the middle of the city. It is here that we find out that Mono possesses similar powers to that of The Thin Man. He is able to use the transmission to defeat The Thin Man, which causes him to vanish. He then enters the Signal Tower to rescue Six once again.
Inside the Signal Tower is a strange, pinkish-purple alternate dimension where gravity and time seem to be distorted. After some searching, Mono finds Six. The only problem is that the Signal Tower has transformed her into a giant, twisted version of herself. This Six is obsessed with a music box that's similar to the one she was playing with when Mono originally saved her. Seeing that this music box is the object behind her transformation, Mono destroys it. Six tries to stop him, but he succeeds and frees her from the influence of the transmission.
The Signal Tower then suddenly begins to fall apart revealing that underneath the building is an overwhelming mass of gooey flesh and eyeballs. The two children run away as a wave of flesh tries to crush them. As a bridge towards the exit begins to crumble, Mono leaps towards a ledge, and Six manages to catch him. However, while she could easily lift him up, Six decides to let him go and Mono falls to the depths of the Signal Tower as Six nonchalantly escapes. She's not a very good friend.
Mono now finds himself stranded at the bottom of the tower. As he walks among the pulsating flesh and eyeballs, he comes across a single wooden chair. He sits down and he suddenly seems to be in a normal-looking room. We then watch a montage of him aging. He grows taller and thinner. He has become The Thin Man.
In the secret ending, we see Six exit through a TV set. As she stands, a glitched, shadow version of herself appears and looks down toward a drawing of the massive ship from the first game, The Maw. We then hear the familiar rumbling of Six's stomach. The events of this game were a prequel to the original Little Nightmares, as it shows the origins of Six's selfish survivalism, her impetus to reach The Maw, and the birth of her constant hunger.
And that's the bizarre tale of Little Nightmares 2. These games are unsettling pieces of art that need to be experienced. Even though you've just read the entirety of the story, it's still worth playing just to see what has come out of the disturbing imagination of Tarsier Studios.

Ancient Skeleton Discovered in Sri Lankan Cave
A complete human skeleton has been excavated from a cave in western Sri Lanka.
Discovered in the Fa Hien Cave in the district of Kalutara, Western Province, Sri Lanka, the skeleton, thought to be a Homo sapien, could be the oldest found in South Asia so far.
Items found in the same layer as the skeleton have been dated back 37,000 years, suggesting that the skeleton is likely around the same age. To find out for sure, officials plan to get it carbon-dated.
Stone tools were found with the skeleton, as well as ornaments made of beads and weapons made of animal bone. These discoveries are helping to build a picture of the eating habits and rituals of these ancient people.
Although human remains were found at the cave in the 1960′s and 1980′s, this find, made a few days ago, represents the first complete pre-historic human skeleton discovered in Sri Lanka.

Midtown Manhattan's Lever House marked a watershed in U.S. architecture when completed in 1952. Located on the west side of Park Avenue between 53rd and 54th Streets, the corporate headquarters, with its facade made of blue-green glass and stainless steel mullions, was one of the first glass-walled International Style office buildings in the country. Within a decade of its construction, the initial enthusiasm for Lever House gave way to a universal recognition of its pivotal importance to American architecture. In 1982, the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission designated the Lever House an official landmark.
The structure consists of two intersecting masses, balanced in their proportions but contrasting in shape. A two-story horizontal block containing an open court occupies the entire site with a 21-story tower located on the north. The columns and the ground floor court create a large open plaza allowing entrances to the lobby to be located away from pedestrian traffic. Inside, the typical floor is characterized by large, open office areas with easy access to individual offices, and service cores at the western end.


text: The'management' of midlife women's bodies is becoming an increasingly important focus for both themselves and medical 'experts'. Health technologies play a major part in this process, given health promotion messages about their usefulness for maintaining and enhancing the quality of life. But how do individual women interpret such messages? This paper explores the factors that impact upon health decision making in relation to a group of these technologies. In particular, we examine how related risks are assessed by women themselves and jointly with health professionals, in the clinical context. Drawing upon literature from the sociology of the body and embodiment, debates about risk and feminist research on the menopause, we argue that midlife needs to be understood as an embodied experience and that women's decisions about technology-based health interventions need to be contextualised. The paper draws upon research data from interviews with individual women and health professionals, and recordings of clinical consultations which relate to the specific technologies of HRT, bone densitometry and breast screening. The data reveal the emergence of two major risk narratives within consultations and interviews, health risks and social risks. We conclude that the health decisions and practices of both lay women and health professionals reflect a complex mixture of expert knowledge and advice, and embodied cultural experience.

It takes approximately two and a half 750 milliliter bottles to make a half gallon. To get the number of bottles needed to make half a gallon, the gallon has to be converted to milliliters, divided by 2 to get half of it and then divided by the number 750.
One gallon translates to 3,785.41178 milliliters. This means that 1,892.70589 milliliters make half a gallon. Dividing that value with 750 yields the number 2.523607853. Upon rounding the number to two decimals, the result is 2.52, which represents the number of 750 milliliter bottles that are needed to make half a gallon.

While many companies use shoe covers to prevent contamination, many Shoe Inn customers also use sticky mats to maximize contamination prevention. The utilization of multi-layer adhesive mats for cleanrooms is almost universal. However, how the mats are used is unique to each cleanroom. Mats can vary in size, color, number, and placement based on the logistics and characteristics of each individual cleanroom.
Mats should be placed in an area where they will be on clean, hard flooring. They should be placed just before or just after the ingress/egress point for each cleanliness or control change. It is suggested that the placement sites are worked backward from the final clean area or cleanroom.
- cleanroom – gowning area
- cleanroom – staging area
- gowning area – control area
- control area – common hallway
- common hallway – warehouse or receiving
- common hallway – public area
Matting should be placed so that all those passing through that point must step on the mats. Matting should be placed with the longer dimension of the mat in the same direction as the traffic flow for maximum footfalls on each mat. The minimum number of footfalls should be two with each foot for each location.
The proper size mat for each area of placement depends on the width of the opening and the variance and direction of the traffic. Normally the width of the mat should be 2/3rds to 3/4ths of the width of the doorway. It does not normally need to cover the full width because ordinary traffic passes through the middle of the doorway and not along the edge. However, if the traffic enters at a sharp angle or from the side of the entryway, then the width of the mat needs to be wider than the doorway to allow for enough footfalls.
As stated above, the length of the mat should be long enough to provide at least two footfalls with each foot at each location. Usually this is a minimum of 45 inches.
The color of the mats, which has no effect on the function of the mat, can vary from standard blue, white, and grey to custom colors and printed messages. In general, white shows the most dirt and particulates, and is normally preferred to make sure the layers are changed at frequent enough intervals. However, grey and blue work just as well when a maintenance schedule is set.
How often the layers should be removed depends on a number of factors:
- How dirty the area the personnel are coming from is.
- The number of people or pairs of feet per shift or per hour.
- The difference in cleanliness between the areas.
- The size of the mats and how many mats or locations are in the series.
In general, areas farther away from the cleanroom will be dirtier. Changing the layers at this point of use every half hour would be a benchmark with which to start. The final entry area into the cleanroom is probably from a clean area to a very clean area and each layer may last 4 to 8 hours.
However, this is just a rough guideline and each point of use will vary greatly. A few days of use and observation will help to determine the optimal mat layer change interval.
- Before placing a new mat down or replacing an existing mat, thoroughly clean the surface to remove contamination that may act as a barrier and keep the mat from properly adhering to the floor. Make sure to remove any adhesive residue if you are replacing an existing mat. It is recommended to use a pre-saturated wiper that contains a percentage of isopropyl alcohol. Make sure the surface is completely dry before application.
- To apply the mat, remove half of the release liner in the long direction of the mat, which will help with the alignment of the mat.
- Once you have the mat properly aligned in the location you want, start smoothing out the half of the mat with the adhesive exposed. Start at one end and work toward the middle making sure you do not trap air under the mat as you go, then remove the rest of the release liner and smooth the rest of the mat out in the same direction in which you removed the release liner.
Matting should be stored flat and for several hours in similar climate conditions as the point of use. For ideal results, the mats should be used in a controlled environment setting but may be placed in any area that has a temperature of 54-95 oF (12-35 oC).
Long-term storage of mats should always be on a flat and hard surface. Storage on the original shipping pallet is recommended. Normal warehouse conditions are usually acceptable but extreme temperatures (less than 32 or greater than 105 oF / 0 or 40 oC) should be avoided.
Storage of mats longer than one year from the date of purchase is not recommended. However, under normal storage conditions, matting should not have any variation in performance for a period of up to three years.
The utilization of multi-layer sticky mats for cleanrooms is almost universal. In fact, many customers who use the Shoe Inn automatic shoe cover dispensing system also use these adhesive mats to further help prevent contamination within controlled environments. Depending on various factors such as how dirty the area the personnel are coming from is and the level of cleanliness desired or mandated, this combined approach may be advisable or even required.

Just follow this steps:
1. Open Notepad.
2. Copy and paste the exact code given below in red:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
"ProcessorNameString"="My Processor name 50000MHz"
To change the processor name, edit the part of the code given in blue. Also understand that \0 in the above code should only be present if Windows store your processor name at that location. Please open Registry Editor and navigate to the above mentioned keys to check whether or not to include the \0.
3. Click on File Menu, click on Save As and select "All Types" in Save as Type option. Save the file as ProcessorNameChange.reg or *.reg.
4. Create a new shortcut on your desktop. Enter regedit / S "Location of the.reg file" as the location of the item. For example, enter regedit /S "C:\Processor Name.reg" if your registry file is located in the root of C:\ drive.
5. Copy the created Shortcut file.
6. Navigate to C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup (in Windows XP) or to C:\Users \User-Name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup (in Windows 8, Windows 7 and Windows Vista. Also remember that AppData is a hidden folder.) if C: is your System drive.
7. Paste the copied file.
This registry file would now execute each time when Windows starts and the Processor Name String would be modified each time. So, even upon restarting your computer, you will see that the changed processor name is permanent.

Lunatic States
Last Updated: 2012.01.30

This script provides the base setup for state lunatic effects. These effects will occur under certain conditions, which can include when a state is applied, erased, leaves naturally, before taking damage, after taking damage, at the start of a turn, while an action finishes, and at the end of a turn.
Lunatic States allow allow states to trigger various scripted functions throughout certain set periods of times or when certain conditions trigger. These effects can occur when a state is applied, when a state is erased, when a state leaves naturally, before damage is taken, after damage is taken, at the beginning of a turn, while the turn is occuring, and at the closing of a turn. These effects are separated by these eight different notetags.
 - Occurs when state is applied.
 - Occurs when state is removed.
 - Occurs when state timer hits 0.
 - Occurs before taking damage.
 - Occurs after taking damage.
 - Occurs at the start of each turn.
 - Occurs after performing an action.
 - Occurs at the end of a turn.
If multiple tags of the same type are used in the same skill/item's notebox, then the effects will occur in that order. Replace "string" in the tags with the appropriate flag for the method below to search for. Note that unlike the previous versions, these are all upcase.
Should you choose to use multiple lunatic effects for a single state, you may use these notetags in place of the ones shown above.
 - Punishment Package
 - Undead HP, Undead MP, Backfire Physical, Backfire Magical, Stat Slip Damage, Stat Slip Healing, Drain HP, Drain MP
 - Protection Package
 - Damage Cut, Damage Barrier, Damage Shelter, Damage Block, Heal Boost, Heal Bonus, Persist
Use your Lunatic Effects wisely!
And that's all, folks!

 2. Is it possible to deal unhealable damage? For example, by decreasing HP as well as maximum HP at the same time by the amount of damage dealt? I mean, you can have MORE damage, you can have FAST damage and you can have CERTAIN damage with your skill, but what about UNHEALABLE damage? :)
 3. I have a question. There are states that are removed when the battle ends. Does the "erase" effect covers that too?
 From my experiments the answer should be "No" as the effect I want doesn't gappen after the battle ends (though it works fine if the state is removed during battle), but maybe I'm just doing something wrong…?
 - Well, no idea.
 The "erase effect" still doesn't work upon battle end for some reason, even though I fail to detect anything wrong with the script…
 - That's because when they're removed at the end of battle, it's no longer considered in-battle. Lunatic State effects only occur in-battle.

 6. I'm sorry that I need to ask this and it might be a stupid question, but for some reason I don't really understand what I need to replace "string" with. If I want to make a "death sentence"-state for example, the owner of the state should die after a set number of turns, which could be achieved by using the ""-command. The problem that I have is that even after hours of trial and error, I still don't know what I need to write instead of "string" in that case. Is there a list of commands that I didn't see for some reason or does the sentence "but the users must be able to add them in themselves" mean that I need to edit the script with my own commands? Maybe I'm just thinking too complicated…
 I would really appreciate any kind of help, since I'm kind of desperate trying to find out what to do.
 7. Well i want to increase a variable x while being attacked if stat is on.
 thougth it would work like this :
 But basicly nothing happens. what is wrong about the string? When i do "$game_variables[x] += 1" to an events comment it counts the variable correctly.
 8. Does anyone know how to make a state deal a precise amount of elemental damage? I hate working with the health slip % and want to make it a static number.
 9. I think I'm pretty much at the level where I can use the Lunatic stuff now. =O Looking at what you can do with this, I'm just so happy to see this now.
 Oh Yanfly, how I love your specific preferences for setting up scripts to make battles more unique and interesting instead of just visually appealing~ <3
 10. Is it possible to use this script to create doom and auto-life states using a script call in the notetag? I'm no scripter by any means, but here is an example of what I was thinking.
 add_new_state(state ID)
 Something like this would be placed in the note box of the doom state so that after the set number of turns were up and the doom state is removed, it will then add the state associated to state ID.
 remove_state(state ID)
 actor_MHP = x%
 Something like this could be used to make an auto-life state. The character has auto-life on, when said character dies the state is erased which triggers the specified state (which would be Death) to be removed, and the player to have x% of max HP restored.
 As I said, I am definitely not a scripter, but if there is a way to do this, or some other method in existence, could you help me get on the right track? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 I have looked into the add-ons developed by pillanious, but they do not work.
 11. Sorry for the double post. My examples were supposed to contain the "" tags like this:
 add_new_state(state ID)
 remove_state(state ID)
 actor_MHP = x%
 12. I'm having the same problem as Skywad for playing an animation for the state, have tried both
 _USER_ = 7
 could you tell me what I'm doing wrong?
 13. Thanks for your marvelous posting! I quite enjoyed reading it,
 your great posts, have a nice weekend!
 14. Could one use this script to create a two-turn skill, like Jump from the Final Fantasy games or Dig and Fly from Pokemon?
 Eg: use the skill Jump, which adds the Airborne state to the user, and when the user leaves the state on the next turn, they automatically attack an enemy.
 Is this doable?
 15. I'm thinking it should be possible to set up an entire party as the state origin (so for example an attacker could inflict an HP drain that heals her entire party instead of just herself) but I'm unsure how to implement it. I'm looking in
 # new method: change_state_origin
 # new method: state_origin?
 and pretty certain that is where it would need to be added (plus I made up a new Party Drain effect in the Punishment Package, "when /PDRAIN HP").
 ATM it works, but still only heals the caster.
 - _USER_: I have been working on something similar, the concept being this:
 An actor has a shield which lets you, when attacked, have a chance at activating an ability, which would restore every party member's HP by a small amount. I have tried with equipment that, when attacked, has a chance to cast a state on the targeted actor themself, but I can't seem to be getting those to work. I'm using the Passive States script in conjunction with Lunatic States for this:
 if c>=10
 I couldn't be assed to write it all in one line, and I don't know how Ruby's Syntax works THAT well. Can anyone with experience tell me what I am doing wrong, with this effect? ( … The state_id there is purely coincidential. I swear. D: )
 16. Yanfly, I don't know if you still monitor this, but there are two major bugs in this script that you might want to be aware of:
 1) On line 505 you have for state in states, then it calls the extension, which then also has a for state in states! What this does is it loops through the states n^2 times, where n is the number of states present! This causes weird effects with your other scripts, which you can

Target visualisation is main goal of the practical radargram recovering procedure. There are a lot of visualisation algorithms (2D-filtering. migration. FFT etc.) that is mainly based on final images processing. Existent methods are not frequently allowed to get adequate results due to considerably complex properties of the surrounding target environment.
In this work an approach to target visualisation based on phased-array effect in antennas with transient excitation is proposed and discussed. This reconstruction method uses initial information about properties of the used for radargram getting antennas. Preliminary results of this approach, its applicability and sensitivity are presented.
An Approach of Target Visualisation
In contrast to antennas behaviour with sinusoidal or narrow frequency band excitation such one with transient excitation has some differences. As a matter of fact transient radiation of an antenna depends on its geometry. If pulse generator impedance and input antenna impedance is matched in the antenna is observed so-called double-passing excitation mode. hi this case temporary structure of the antenna radiation field consists of three impulses sequence. Note that time delays between neighbouring impulses are associated to antenna length and the second impulse polarity is inverse one to the first and third pulses.
Let's consider monopole linear antenna with impulse excitation in Cartesian coordinates as it is shown in Fig. 1. Assume that the antenna length is L and a target coordinates is (X0. Y0). Distances from target to excitation point and antenna edges are Rl and R2. accordingly.
