Gendered dimensions of smoking among college students
(SAGE Publications, 2006-05)
Ethnographic research, including interviews, focus groups, and observations were conducted to explore gendered dimensions of smoking among low level smokers, including the acceptability of smoking in different contexts; ...
The 2006 Hungarian election: economic competitiveness versus social solidarity
(Oxford University Press, 2007-10)
This article argues that while voters typically respond to sharply focused images more than theoretical propositions, in Hungary during the 2006 elections economic issues became crucial, as evinced by the lengths to which ...
Using analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to improve human performance: an application of multiple criteria decision making problem
(Kluwer Academic Publishers, 2004-08)
In the global economy, the modem commercial and industrial organization needs to develop better methods of assessing the performance of the human resource than simply using performance measures such as efficiency or ...
Anomalous single top quark production at the CERN LHC
(IOP Publishing, 2005-01)
Production of single top quarks via the anomalous interaction u(c)g --> t, and its decay to W + b are studied for the CERN LHC ATLAS experiment. The sensitivity to anomalous coupling kappa/Lambda down to 0.024 TeV-1 can ...
Technology transfer to developing countries and technological development for social stability: part 1
(Elsevier, 2003)
Part one of this paper identifies some crucial issues of the topic and develops a framework for a methodology of optimising development decisions in technology transfer for social stability and sustainable society development, ...
New current-mode integrator and all-pass section without external passive elements and their application to design a dual-mode quadrature oscillator
(Fachverlag Schiele Schon, 2003-01)
In this paper a new current-mode integrator and a first order all-pass section are used to construct a quadrature oscillator. These circuits are composed of operational amplifiers (OAs) and operational transconductance ...
An experimental study on the kinetics of leaching for the preparation of a Raney-Silver catalyst
(Kluwer Academic Publishers, 2004)
A Raney-Ag catalyst was prepared by leaching out aluminium from a Raney Ag-Al alloy with NaOH solution. The kinetics of leaching has been investigated in a stirred-batch-reactor at various temperatures by using alloy ...
A new cryptanalytic time-memory trade-off for stream ciphers
(Springer, 2005-10-26)
In 1980 M. Hellman presented a cryptanalytic time-memory trade-off which reduces computational time by distributing possible key solution space N between memory M and time T, by using a pre-computed table, for block ciphers. ...
On the Riesz basisness of the root functions of the nonself-adjoint Sturm-Liouville operator
(The Hebrew University Magnes Press, 2005)
In this article we obtain the asymptotic formulas for eigenfunctions and eigenvalues of the nonself-adjoint Sturm-Liouville operators with periodic and antiperiodic boundary conditions, when the potential is an arbitrary ...
Biometric security system design using keystroke rhythms algorithm
(CRC Press-Taylor & Francis Group, 2003-10-28)
Biometric technologies are becoming a vital part of computerized security systems. It is likely that biometric security technologies will be of greater importance in the light of terrorism, threads to computer systems. ...
