Originally built as Cleveland-class light cruisers (CL) in the United States Navy during World War II, in 1957 three ships were re-designated as Providence-class guided missile light cruisers (CLG) and fitted with the Terrier surface-to-air missile system. During the two year refit, the aft superstructure was completely replaced and all aft guns were removed to make room for the twin-arm Terrier launcher and a 120 missile storage magazine. Three large masts were also installed in order to hold a variety of radars, missile guidance, and communications systems. Providence and Springfield were simultaneously...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Generally speaking, national highways are freeways. The construction of the national highways began in 1971 and its design is heavily based on the American Interstate Highway System. The Northern section between Keelung City and Jhongli City was completed in 1974. The construction of the first freeway (No. 1) was completed in 1978. The freeway runs from the northern harbor Keelung to the southern harbor Kaohsiung, where there was an 8.6 km branch (No. 1A) connecting the Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport. Construction began on the other freeways in the late 1980s. The north section of the second north-south freeway (No. 3) between Hsichih City and Hsinchu City was completed in 1997. The No....

Providing quality of service (QoS) guarantees is an important objective in the design of the next-generation wireless networks. In this book, we address the QoS provisioning problem from both the network and the end system perspectives. In the first part of the book, we investigate the problem of statistical QoS provisioning from the network perspective. We propose and develop a link-layer channel model termed the effective capacity model. The effective capacity model captures the effect of channel fading on the queueing behavior of the link, using a computationally simple yet accurate model, and thus, is the critical device we need to design efficient QoS provisioning mechanisms. We call such an approach to channel modeling and QoS...

Prowl is the name of several fictional characters in the Transformers universes. After Optimus Prime and Megatron, and along with Mirage, Starscream, and Ironhide, "Prowl" is one of the most re-used American names in the assorted Transformers series, and its use has become almost synonymous with Autobots who possess a police car alternate mode. Prowl (Cervo in Canada, Pantera in Italy) is an Autobot of many virtues - he is quiet, competent, loyal, and possessed of almost endless patience. When Optimus Prime appoints Prowl a task, he can be guaranteed that it will be completed to the best of Prowl's ability....

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! PROX is an acronym for PReferential OXidation, and refers to the preferential oxidation of a gas on a catalyst. The catalyser preferentially oxidises carbon monoxide (CO) using a heterogeneous catalyst placed upon a ceramic support. Catalysing agents include metals such as platinum, platinum/iron, platinum/ruthenium, gold nanoparticles as well as novel copper oxide/ceramic conglomerate catalysts. This reaction is a considerable subject area of research for fuel cell design. From the reaction of carbon monoxide with steam, carbon dioxide is evolved. The presence of CO impedes the reaction of H2/O2 and reduces the fuel cell efficiency by the absorption of CO onto the platinum anode. The PROX...

The bit string must be of even length, so it can be split into two bit strings a and b of equal lengths, each of n bits. To compute the transform, a' and b'. In cryptography, Twofish is a symmetric key block cipher with a block size of 128 bits and key sizes up to 256 bits. It was one of the five finalists of the Advanced Encryption Standard contest, but was not selected for standardisation. Twofish is related to the earlier block cipher Blowfish.
