During the First World War, following a suggestion from three junior officers of the Harwich destroyer force that small motor boats carrying a torpedo might be capable of travelling over the protective minefields and attacking ships of the German Navy at anchor in their bases, the Admiralty gave tentative approval to the idea and, in the summer of 1915, produced a Staff Requirement requesting designs for a coastal motorboat for service in the North Sea.

The coat of a dog is the pelage that covers its body. Newfoundland lying next to its combed-out seasonal undercoat. A dog coat may be a double coat, made up of a soft undercoat and a coarse topcoat, or a single coat, without an undercoat. The terms fur and hair are often used interchangeably when describing dog coats, but in general, a double coat, such as that of the Newfoundland, is called a fur coat, while a single coat, such as the poodle's coat, may be called a hair coat.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Cobalt-60 is a radioactive isotope of cobalt. Due to its short half life of 5.27 years 60Co is not found in nature. It is produced artificially by neutron activation of 59Co. 60Co decays by negative beta decay to the stable isotope nickel-60 . The activated Ni-atom emits two gamma rays with energies of 1.17 and 1.33 MeV. Corresponding to its half life the radioactive activity of one gram of 60Co is 44 TBq . The absorbed dose constant is related to the decay energy and time. For 60Co it is equal to 0.35 mSv. It allows to calculate the equivalent dose, which depends on distance and activity. Example: a 60Co source with an activity of 2.8 GBq, which is equivalent to 60 µg of pure 60Co, generates...

Cobblestones are stones that were frequently used in the pavement of early streets. "Cobblestone" is derived from the very old English word "cob", which had a wide range of meanings, one of which was "rounded lump" with overtones of large size. "Cobble", which appeared in the 15th century, simply added the diminutive suffix "le" to "cob", and meant a small stone rounded by the flow of water; essentially, a large pebble. It was these smooth "cobbles", gathered from stream beds, that paved the first "cobblestone" streets. Note that Cobble is a generic geological term for any stone having dimensions between...

We introduced nested search methods to design (n,k) block codes for arbitrary channels by optimizing an appropriate metric spectrum in each iteration. For a given k, the methods start with a good high rate code, say k/(k + 1), and successively design lower rate codes up to rate k/2^k corresponding to a Hadamard code. The design methodology was extended to the generic complex codes by utilizing columns of newly derived or existing unitary codes. Extensive comparisons to metric bounds and to previously designed codes show the optimality or near- optimality of the new codes. Further, the method was generalized such that good codes for arbitrary channels can be designed given the corresponding metric or the pairwise error probability....

Joint estimation of code timing and carrier frequency offset for (DS) direct sequence CDMA systems is investigated. The goal is to provide an algebraic solution to the joint estimation problem, in a near-far time-varying frequency-selective fading channel. First, the multiuser estimation is decoupled into a series of single-user estimation problems; then, analytical tools of polynomial matrices are invoked for joint carrier and code timing estimation of the desired user. The performance of the proposed study is examined analytically, where expressions for the variance of propagation delay and frequency offset estimation errors are derived. A subspace code-timing estimator for CDMA systems that utilize bandlimited chip waveforms is also...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A code is a rule for converting a piece of information into another form or representation (one sign into another sign), not necessarily of the same type. In communications and information processing, encoding is the process by which information from a source is converted into symbols to be communicated. Decoding is the reverse process, converting these code symbols back into information understandable by a receiver. One reason for coding is to enable communication in places where ordinary spoken or written language is difficult or impossible. For example, semaphore, where the configuration of flags held by a signaller or the arms of a semaphore tower encodes parts of the message, typically...

Coffee cup sleeves, also known as coffee sleeves, coffee clutches, hot cup jackets and cup holders, are roughly cylindrical sleeves that fit tightly over handle-less paper coffee cups to insulate the drinker's hands from hot coffee. Coffee sleeves are typically made of cardboard, but can be found made of other materials. Coffee sleeves allow coffee houses, fast food restaurants, and other coffee sellers to avoid double-cupping, the practice of using two (or more) nested paper cups for a single hot beverage.

This book is about three principal elements: organizations, cognitive machines and the environment. It mainly contributes by putting forwards a new perspective about these elements and about the relations between them through the concept of cognition. From this new perspective it proposes a theory on organizational cognition, principles and design of cognitive machines, and analyses of cognitive machines in organizations. There is no doubt that organizational and technological principles of the past and the present have contributed with brilliantly successful applications in many areas of management and organizations. But these successes should not obscure the fact that the world is changing, that new processes of organizing are...

A coilgun is a type of projectile accelerator that consists of one or more electromagnetic coils in the configuration of a synchronous linear electric motor. These are used to accelerate a magnetic projectile to high velocity. The name Gauss gun is sometimes used for such devices in reference to Carl Friedrich Gauss, who formulated mathematical descriptions of the electromagnetic effect used by magnetic accelerators.Coilguns consist of one or more coils arranged along the barrel that are switched in sequence so as to ensure that the projectile is accelerated quickly along the barrel via magnetic forces. Coilguns are distinct from railguns, which pass a large current through the projectile or sabot via sliding contacts. Coilguns and...

In minting, coining is the process of manufacturing coins using a kind of stamping which is now generically known in metalworking as "coining". A coin die is one of the two metallic pieces that are used to strike one side of a coin. A die contains an inverse version of the image to be struck on the coin. To imagine what the incuse version looks like, press a coin into clay or wax and look at the resulting inverted image. Modern dies made out of hardened steel are capable of producing many hundreds of thousands of coins before they are retired and defaced. Данное издание не является...

This book proposes an improved HARQ scheme with an adaptive relaying protocol (HARQ-ARP). Focusing on the HARQ as a central theme, we start by introducing the concept of ARP. Then we use this as the basis for designing three types of HARQ schemes, denoted by HARQ I-ARP, HARQ II-ARP and HARQ III-ARP.We describe the relaying protocols, (both AAF and DAF), and their operations, including channel access between the source and relay, the feedback scheme, and the combining methods at the receivers. To investigate the benefits of the proposed HARQ scheme, we analyze its frame error rate (FER) and throughput performance over a quasi-static fading channel. We can compare these with the reference methods, HARQ with AAF (HARQ-AAF) and HARQ with...

In the services-based cross-organizational workflow environments, distributed web services are integrated into business processes. However, web service still bring less than expected benefits to small corporations and some presentation-centric business processes for two reasons: 1) web service only focuses on data level and is difficult to implement the presentation-centric business contexts. 2) The small corporations usually do not have enough IT competences to write a client interface to work with web service(s). In order to solve these problems, this book proposed a presentation-preserved compositional approach for service-oriented architecture, which extends the existing data-oriented compositional approaches for web services to...
