Distributed Localization in Wireless Sensor Networks: A Quantitative Comparison
, 2003
"... This paper studies the problem of determining the node locations in ad-hoc sensor networks. We compare three distributed localization algorithms (Ad-hoc positioning, Robust positioning, and N-hop multilateration) on a single simulation platform. The algorithms share a common, three-phase structure: ..."

: (1) determine node--anchor distances, (2) compute node positions, and (3) optionally refine the positions through an iterative procedure. We present a detailed analysis comparing the various alternatives for each phase, as well as a head-to-head comparison of the complete algorithms. The main
Splitting a Logic Program
- Principles of Knowledge Representation
, 1994
"... In many cases, a logic program can be divided into two parts, so that one of them, the \bottom " part, does not refer to the predicates de ned in the \top " part. The \bottom " rules can be used then for the evaluation of the predicates that they de ne, and the computed va ..."

values can be used to simplify the \top " de nitions. We discuss this idea of splitting a program in the context of the answer set semantics. The main theorem shows how computing the answer sets for a program can be simpli ed when the program is split into parts. The programs covered
Functional Data Structures
, 1996
"... this paper. Note that the cons operation supplied by this library is strict, not lazy. In fact, the only lazy operations in this library are ++ (infix append) and reverse. 2 FIFO Queues Stacks and queues are usually the first two data structures studied by beginning computer science students. The ty ..."

the simplest example of a data structure whose implementation in a functional setting is substantially different from its implementation in an imperative setting. For this reason, functional queues have been widely studied [11, 9, 3, 23, 24]. A minimal signature for queues appears in Figure 2. The three main
A survey of methods and strategies in character segmentation
- IEEE TRANSACTION ON PAMI
, 1996
"... Character segmentation has long been a critical area of the OCR process. The higher recognition rates for isolated characters vs. those obtained for words and connected character strings well illustrate this fact. A good part of recent progress in reading unconstrained printed and written text may b ..."

The aim is to provide an appreciation for the range of techniques that have been developed, rather than to simply list sources. Segmentation methods are listed under four main headings.

Quality of service based routing: A performance perspective
- in Proceedings of ACM SIGCOMM
, 1998
"... Recent studies provide evidence that Quality of Service (QoS) routing can provide increased network utilization compared to routing that is not sensitive to QoS requirements of traffic. However, there are still strong concerns about the increased cost of &OS routing, both in terms of more comple ..."

The main goals of this paper are to study these two cost components, and propose solutions that achieve good routing performance with reduced processing cost. First, we identify the parameters that determine the protocol traffic
HEAD-TAIL INSTABILITY IN THE KEK-PS MAIN RING
"... A horizontal head-tail instability has been observed at the beginning of acceleration in the KEK-PS main ring. The instability occurs due to a large change in chromaticity pro-duced by the sextupole component of the eddy-current in-duced field in the dipole beam-pipe. The horizontal chro-maticity in ..."

The English National Health Service (NHS) is caught in a ‘per-fect storm ’ relating to older people’s care in hospital. A recent series of reports repeatedly highlights a picture of poor or vari-able care and a once-in-a-generation opportunity to transform services, which physicians must grasp. The public dialogue in the media,1,2 public office,3,4 campaigns5,6 and studies7,8 exploring the causes of poor care has majored on the crucial role of nursing and nurses, with doctors peripheral to the story. We must take our share of responsibility for the problems and for lasting solutions, ensuring that the care of our oldest patients consistently meets the standards that they and their families have the right to expect. Ham,9 anticipating report of the Francis Enquiry10 into fail-ings at Mid-Staffordshire Hospitals, said ‘These failures raise fundamental questions about doctors, nurses and other frontline
