Laser processing is being studied for the purpose of altering material structure, properties and performance for specific applications. Focused femtosecond lasers with comparatively low energy, (nanoJoule), high repetition rate, (megaHertz) pulses can be used to damage or remove small volumes of material. Steel, silicon, tungsten carbide and yttria-stabilized zirconia have been micro-machined using this regime of laser irradiation. High energy nanosecond laser pulses can create micro and nano scale surface structures on structural and bio metals like Magnesium and Titanium, changing properties like absorption, color, composition, hydrophobicity and roughness. Finally, continuous wave laser heating of novel nanocrystalline binary metal alloy powders for enhanced laser densification is an ongoing effort in hopes of achieving 3D-printed nanocrystalline alloys or composites that maintain their strength-increasing nano grain size in elevated temperature environments.

What is it about? Psychologists study human behaviour in all its forms, shapes, sizes, ages. As groups, as individuals, sick and well. They ask questions like; 'Why do they do that?'; 'What causes that behaviour?'; 'How can I investigate it?'; What do my findings say about life, the universe and everything?'; 'Can we improve any aspect of human lifestyles on the strength of our research?'

We’d like to begin by praising Allah (S.W.T) and sending salutations to the Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W). We thank Allah for showering his blessings upon the success of this madrassah, without Allah (S.W.T) this project would not be possible.
The madrassah has been running for the last 4 years and alhamdulillah exponentially has grown over these years. It all began with a few students that showed dedication, and has since grown to a full madrassah with many new students, and huffaz.
There are many reasons for the start-up of this madrassah, the main reason being the need for a good environment for the Muslim youth.  To resolve this issue, the Assalaam Institute of Qur’an (AIQ) offers youth an opportunity to be in an environment of young Muslims dedicated to memorizing the book of Allah (S.W.T). In addition, AIQ focuses intensively on grooming these individuals with knowledge and akhlaaq so that they can become well-mannered, practicing Muslims.
At AIQ, we give tremendous importance to memorizing the Qur’an. There are many rewards for huffaz in both dunya and akhirah, and our goal is to yield huffaz that can recite with perfect tajweed, and demonstrate strong ability to recall the Qur’an from memory so that they are able to lead congregational prayers in the month of Ramadhan. To achieve this, it is our responsibility to motivate the students and encourage them to work to their maximum potential. This is done by providing students with constant reminders, and tips to make their memorization more efficient, manageable, and enjoyable.
Besides being a madrassah, we treat all the students at AIQ like they are family. We encourage a strong connection between students and teachers, students are always welcome to have talks with the teachers about their experiences etc.


MCHECK
Section: Linux Programmer's Manual (3)
Updated: 2014-01-11
Index
Return to Main Contents
NAME
mcheck, mcheck_check_all, mcheck_pedantic, mprobe - heap consistency checking
SYNOPSIS
#include <mcheck.h>
int mcheck(void (*abortfunc)(enum mcheck_status mstatus));
int mcheck_pedantic(void (*abortfunc)(enum mcheck_status mstatus));
void mcheck_check_all(void);
enum mcheck_status mprobe(void *ptr);
DESCRIPTION
The
mcheck()
function installs a set of debugging hooks for the
malloc(3)
family of memory-allocation functions.
These hooks cause certain consistency checks to be performed
on the state of the heap.
The checks can detect application errors such as freeing a block of memory
more than once or corrupting the bookkeeping data structures
that immediately precede a block of allocated memory.
To be effective, the
mcheck()
function must be called before the first call to
malloc(3)
or a related function.
In cases where this is difficult to ensure, linking the program with
-lmcheck
inserts an implicit call to
mcheck()
(with a NULL argument)
before the first call to a memory-allocation function.
The
mcheck_pedantic()
function is similar to
mcheck(),
but performs checks on all allocated blocks whenever
one of the memory-allocation functions is called.
This can be very slow!
The
mcheck_check_all()
function causes an immediate check on all allocated blocks.
This call is effective only if
mcheck()
is called beforehand.
If the system detects an inconsistency in the heap,
the caller-supplied function pointed to by
abortfunc
is invoked with a single argument argument,
mstatus,
that indicates what type of inconsistency was detected.
If
abortfunc
is NULL, a default function prints an error message on
stderr
and calls
abort(3).
The
mprobe()
function performs a consistency check on
the block of allocated memory pointed to by
ptr.
The
mcheck()
function should be called beforehand (otherwise
mprobe()
returns
MCHECK_DISABLED).
The following list describes the values returned by
mprobe()
or passed as the
mstatus
argument when
abortfunc
is invoked:
- MCHECK_DISABLED (mprobe() only)
-
mcheck()
was not called before the first memory allocation function was called.
Consistency checking is not possible.
- MCHECK_OK (mprobe() only)
-
No inconsistency detected.
- MCHECK_HEAD
-
Memory preceding an allocated block was clobbered.
- MCHECK_TAIL
-
Memory following an allocated block was clobbered.
- MCHECK_FREE
-
A block of memory was freed twice.
RETURN VALUE
mcheck()
and
mcheck_pedantic()
return 0 on success, or -1 on error.
VERSIONS
The
mcheck_pedantic()
and
mcheck_check_all()
functions are available since glibc 2.2.
The
mcheck()
and
mprobe()
functions are present since at least glibc 2.0
CONFORMING TO
These functions are GNU extensions.
NOTES
Linking a program with
-lmcheck
and using the
MALLOC_CHECK_
environment variable (described in
mallopt(3))
cause the same kinds of errors to be detected.
But, using
MALLOC_CHECK_
does not require the application to be relinked.
EXAMPLE
The program below calls
mcheck()
with a NULL argument and then frees the same block of memory twice.
The following shell session demonstrates what happens
when running the program:
$ ./a.out
About to free
About to free a second time
block freed twice
Aborted (core dumped)
Program source
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <mcheck.h>
int
main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
char *p;
if (mcheck(NULL) != 0) {
fprintf(stderr, "mcheck() failed\n");
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
p = malloc(1000);
fprintf(stderr, "About to free\n");
free(p);
fprintf(stderr, "\nAbout to free a second time\n");
free(p);
exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
}

The Proximity principle consists in indicating a relation among a group of elements based on a persistent pattern of distance between the given group of elements.
In this example, we can see how YouTube implements this principle to differentiate the suggestions of one channel from another.
The principle of Similarity consists in implying relation among two or more elements by their color, size, shape, position, or a combinition of these.
In this image we can see how Udemy has various sections clearly separated from one another thanks to their differences in size and color (the sections are the red-border zones)
Instead of appealing to our cognitive tendency to organize objects into groups, the principle of Continuity is one of those principles that are related to our tendency to resolve ambiguity and/or complete gaps of information for us to perceive whole objects. Specifically, this principle states that our visual perception is biased to perceive continuous forms over disconnected segments.
In this example, we can see how a rework of the Salesforce logo is in front of a cloud icon, splitting the latter into two lines. Despite this disruption of the cloud, our visual perception still manages to see a cloud and not two segments of curved lines.
Similar to the principle of Continuity, the principle of Closure states that our visual system attempts to close open figures in order to perceive them as whole objects rather than disconnected pieces. Our visual system can even perceive blank area as objects, due to its immensely solid bias to perceive whole shapes.
In both examples (red-bordered zones in the image) the principle takes place very clearly. It is almost undeniable that those shapes are a thumbs-up and a square, rather than a line with many curves and series of dashes around the letter "A".
The principle of symmetry states that our visual system tends to analyze complex scenes in a way that reduces complexity. This means that we have the tendency to choose the least complex interpretation of our visual field in order to simplify it and give it symmetry.
In this example, I've indicated the axis of symmetry (red line) in the Diamond Supply Co. logo, not only to show that both sides are identical, but to show as well how our visual system's reliance on symmetry is exploited to rerpesent three-dimensional objects.
The principle of Figure-Ground describes the way our visual system structures the data it receives, into Figure (or foreground) and Ground (background); Figure being the elements of a scene that are the focus of our attention, and the Ground being the rest of the scene.
In the picure to the left, it's obvious that the Weather window is meant to have more protagonism than the mountains, and this is achieved by having it in front of the mountains' image. This would make the Weather window the Foreground, and the mountains the Background.
The Common Fate principle is the only one related to moving objects/elements. At the same time, Common Fate is related to the Proximity and Similarity principles because it also affects our perception of objects as grouped.This principle states that elements that move together are perceived as grouped or related.
For example, in the series of dropdowns in the image (blue, dashed rectangle), we see how the first two are actioned and displaying all their corresponding elements. Thanks to the Common Fate principle, I think it's safe to infer that those dropdowns that aren't actioned, will display more content when they're actioned, even though there's no other hint than the reference of the first two dropdowns doing so.
In real world visual environments, Gestalt principles work in conjunction with one another, rather than in isolation. The same way that this can be an advantage because there's more chances and alternatives to convey a meaning, this conjunction can be a disservice to this purpose, in view that unintended meanings can emerge. In this image, we can see how various Gestalt principles in the Red Bull logo are happening:
- Symmetry. I indicated with a blue dashed line the axis of symmetry of the logo, where in each side of the axis a word and bull take place.
- Figure-Ground: Behind the two red bulls (foreground) there's a yellow zone that serves of ground to the bulls (background), and at the same time, the yellow zone could be considered a Figure over the white space that is below the rest of the elements, serving as Ground.
- Closure: Conventionally, capital letters "R" and "B" are completely closed, but the Red Bull logo doesn't fail to communicate that the capital letters of their logo are in fact an "R" and a "B" (If pushed a bit, it could be said that these letters are somehow symmetrical as there's one on each side of the axis of symmetry of the whole logo).


Floyd Mayweather isn’t coming back. And why would he when he’s making this much from exhibitions?
by Joe ShreadFloyd Mayweather has dashed hopes of another return from retirement, saying he will not get back in the ring in order to protect his health.
Rumours of lucrative rematches with Manny Pacquiao and Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez have been rife, raising fans’ hopes of a comeback for the 12-time world champion.

But Mayweather, who last fought in 2017 when he beat MMA star Conor McGregor, said: “I’ve got calls to get back into the ring, but my health is my wealth.
“Boxing is a very, very brutal sport. In the last few years a lot of fighters have died inside that squared circle.

“You have got to know when to hang it up. I had a great career.”
Mayweather has retired twice in the past, first in 2007 and then again in 2015, but returned to the ring on both occasions.
However, the 42-year-old says his only future fights will be exhibitions, like the one in January which saw him demolish Japanese kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa in less than three minutes.
“I’ll still travel and do exhibitions,” said Mayweather. “I make great money doing exhibitions — between $10 and $30 million.
“I think I make more doing that than most fighters make fighting.”
Mayweather, who takes an unblemished 50-0 record into retirement, says he is keen to focus on other projects, such as his chain of boxing gyms and his promotion company.

STOCKS: DESPITE DECEMBER's DOWNDRAFT, IT WAS A VERY GOOD YEAR
A tumultuous year but one that, in the end, proved highly
rewarding from a financial standpoint --that is how many who follow
the wireless industry from Wall Street doubtless will remember 1995.
For the 12 months through Dec. 29, the North American
Telecommunications Index--composed of the stocks of 16 publicly held,
large-capitalization companies, all of which do business in cellular
and paging services or in manufacturing wireless equip-ment (WB&F,
Jan. 4, 1995)--increased 30.4 percent. Much of this gain came in the
second half of 1995. Not all telecom indices followed this
pattern, however. The 20-stock Chicago Board Options Ex-change Global
Telecommunications Index, up 22.5 percent on the year, was flat since
mid-July.

AUSTRIAN GSM LICENSE AWARDED FOR $400 MILLION
Bowing to bidders' demands that a winner be named by year's end,
Austria's top telecom regulator announced Dec. 29 that a German-led
group will be licensed to operate the nation's first private cellular
system. O-Call, led by Deutsche Telekom and Siemens AG with financial
backing from Austrian interests, is to begin service of the global
system for mobile communications (GSM) network in about six months.
Austria's PTT, building out its own GSM service, is expected to pay
the same amount--$400 million--that Transportation Commissioner Viktor
Klima said O-Call offered for the 15-year license.

LATE-1995 SIGNPOSTS POINT WAY TOWARD INDUSTRY TRENDS OF 1996
Executive Summary: From interviews with industry leaders and analysis
of recent events, it is possible to connect some of the dots and make
educated guesses about what 1996 holds in store for wireless.
The way Larry Vanston sees it, the year ahead "will be a lot like
'95" in the world of wireless telecommunications. This is to say that
1996 will be another year of record-setting growth, heightened
competition and rapid techno-logical change for the industry,
according to Vanston, president of Austin, Texas-based consultants
Technology Futures Inc.
Vanston and other observers surveyed by WB&F said it may well be
that the industry is in for a year when the pace of developments, if
anything, gains more momentum. Such an acceleration is seen occurring
across a broad front--mani-fested by prices for services driven lower
as more competitors arrive on the scene and by a stream of
technological advances--and against a backdrop where wireless
telephony becomes a widespread reality in more markets overseas.
But this is not to say that there are no clouds on the wireless
horizon. Indeed, renewed signs of a slowdown in the U.S. cellular
market--the world's largest, in terms of absolute subscribers--have
dampened the growth outlook for network operators and for handset and
infrastructure manufacturers.
As Nokia Corp. noted Dec. 14, "Despite improvement in Nokia's
U.S. mobile phone business, growth and profitability in Nokia Mobile
Phones have developed somewhat below plan." That sent the price of
Nokia's American Depositary Receipts tumbling for the second time in
two months (page 9).
However, it was unclear at press time whether handset
manufacturers in general faced a repeat of the overages that built up
in their U.S. inventories during the 1994 Christmas season.
All the same, Wall Streeters are a notoriously fickle bunch, and
any fall-off in domestic wireless growth should be measured against
the blistering ex-pansion that the U.S. market enjoyed during 1994 and
the first half of 1995. Net subscriber additions simply could not be
sustained forever at such an ex-plosive rate, and cellular's long-term
growth pattern seems firmly intact.
By the end of 1996, it is conceivable that there will be 40
million cellu-lar subscribers in the United States--a gain of 10
million in a 15-month span.
...All Eyes Turn to PCS
Big changes are destined to sweep the U.S. wireless market this
year, as the industry comes to grips with the probable enactment of
legislation aimed at deregulating telecommunications. This would give
network operators "the statu-tory certainty they need to move forward
with big purchases of new equipment," said Matthew Flanagan, president
of the Telecommunications Industry Association, Arlington, Va.
Moreover, the U.S. market is on the verge of entering a new phase
with the advent of broadband personal communications services (PCS).
It may be another year yet before PCS is marketed on a large scale,
but PCS licensees are betting big bucks that both lower price points
and the digitally enhanced sound quality of calls placed over their
systems will prove appealing to consumers who have disdained cellular
as too costly and to at least some cellular subscribers.
This year's challenges for PCS players will be to finish the U.S.
licensing process--the C-block spectrum auction (see page 10) is set
to resume this week--and to bring newly licensed services to market,
said Tom Mateer, vice president of business development for Sprint
Telecommunications Venture (STV), the al-liance of Sprint Corp. and
three large cable television operators.
"Our goal is to provide service in our own markets by the end of
1996," Mateer said of Kansas City-based STV, the largest of the A/B-
block major trading area (MTA) licensees in terms of potential market
population. Other MTA licensees, including AT&T Wireless Services and
PCS PrimeCo L.P., are working against similar timetables.
While committed to code division multiple access (CDMA) as its
technology
standard, STV had not named equipment vendors for its network
buildout--estimated to cost from $3 billion to $4 billion by industry
sources--at press time. Mateer said talks with prospective suppliers
were "moving along."
Some funds from Sprint's long-anticipated deal to sell 10 percent
equity interests to France Telecom and Germany's Deutsche Telekom,
which was approved by the FCC last month, are expected to be earmarked
for STV's buildout.
On the narrowband side of PCS, action will center on how
successfully competitors narrow the lead that Mobile Telecommunication
Technologies Corp. (Mtel) enjoys in this market. For its part, Mtel
continues to grapple with what Alex. Brown & Sons Inc. recently called
"rollout concerns" surrounding the company's SkyTel 2-Way advanced
messaging service.
...Competition, Consolidation and Convergence: More of the Same,
Only More So
Perhaps the most important issue before the wireless industry is
how to compete effectively on a landscape that seemingly keeps
shifting beneath its feet. For many wireless players, achieving
"scale" is the way to maximize their competitive ability.
This consolidation trend has been most pronounced in paging,
where Arch Communications Group Inc. and AirTouch Paging announced the
most recent acquisitions, deals giving them about 2.5 million and 2.2
million U.S. subscribers, respectively. Suf-fice it to say that more
paging acqui- sitions are in the offing this year.
But 1996 will see the introduction of new wireless players as
well, via corporate spinoffs. For instance, Sprint's spinoff of its
Sprint Cellular subsidiary to shareholders (WB&F, June 21, 1995) is on
track for completion late next month or early in March, and AT&T
Corp.'s landmark breakup (WB&F, Sept. 27, 1995) is set to close by
year's end.
Other wireless companies may become publicly held entities.
PageMart Inc., the only privately held company among the top U.S.
paging operators, has hinted that it may go this route, and London
financial circles are abuzz that Hutchison Wampoa of Hong Kong will
float Orange, its U.K. personal communications network (PCN)--possibly
as part of a larger realignment of its telecom interests.
And the cast of characters getting into wireless seems likely to
keep on growing. Two recent examples:
* A unit of International Family Entertainment Inc., whose
chairman is evangelist Pat Robertson, bought out the majority interest
held by Motorola Inc. in Pakistan Mobile Communications Ltd., licensed
to offer nationwide cellular service based on the global system for
mobile communications (GSM) standard as well as paging in the Asian
country.
* Fidelity Capital, part of the Boston-based mutual funds giant,
has helped engineer a deal aimed at strengthening specialized mobile
radio (SMR) operator Pittencrieff Communications Inc. in its core
Texas market (WB&F, May 10, 1995). Pittencrieff shareholders were to
vote late this week on the company's merger with Fidelity-owned
Advanced MobileComm Inc.
Meanwhile, convergence has continued to take on new and different
forms in wireless. For instance, there is the growing trend among
competition-minded service providers to establish themselves as "one-
stop shops."
In the space of a week last month, Dallas-based Paging Network
Inc. (PageNet) announced marketing agreements with both STV and GTE
Corp., giving PageNet new distribution channels for its digital and
alphanumeric services in both the PCS and local telephone markets,
respectively.
STV, by packaging cable services on a promotional basis with its
planned service offerings for the local and long-distance telephone
markets, appears to be seeking as many distribution sources as
possible. STV also signed an agree-ment covering various text-
messaging services with National Dispatch Center Inc., a San Diego-
based data network operator, last month.
...Technology: It's Show Time for CDMA, iDEN
Technology, like competition, is a powerful catalyst for
convergence. The wireless industry should look during 1996 for more
developments along the lines of these recent announcements:
* Putting aside their intense rivalry, Motorola granted L.M.
Ericsson AB a license to use Flex, Motorola's high-speed paging
protocol, in the Swedish company's pagers and infrastructure
equipment.
* IBM Corp., Nokia and the PCS subsidiary of Pacific Telesis
Group will work together on making wireless data services accessible
to subscribers via IBM ThinkPad laptop computers. The ability to send
and receive e-mail and facsimile messages and to gain access to the
Internet will be a key selling point for Pacific Bell Mobile Services
in marketing PCS in its service area of California and Nevada, the
companies said.
But in the dynamic field of wireless technology, the CDMA air
interface--and its promise of offering 10 times the capacity of analog
cel-lular--no doubt will command the limelight right through 1996.
The first CDMA system to achieve commercial status was
Hutchison Telecom's cellular service in Hong Kong last fall. Next up
will be a long-awaited cellular network built out in Los Angeles by
AirTouch Com-munications, which has spent much time fine-tuning it,
followed by the
mid-1996 launch of Shinsegi Tele-communications Inc.'s cellular system
in South Korea (WB&F, Aug. 30, 1995).
Importantly, the 43 member companies of the CDMA Development
Group have verified test results done with CDMA's 13 kilobits per
second vocoder, a touch-stone to achieving wireline-quality voice
communications over CDMA networks.
CDMA handsets for use on PCS networks are expected to become
available during the first half of 1996, said Kevin Kelley, vice
president of external affairs for Qualcomm Inc., San Diego. The
company plans to ship 1 mil-lion terminals this year.
For enhanced specialized mobile radio (ESMR) operator Nextel
Communica-tions Inc. [CALL], at least some of the questions
surrounding the sound quality of Motorola's ESMR technology, known as
iDEN (WB&F, April 12, 1995), will be resolved this year.
Even while cementing its nation-wide footprint in place with the
immi-nent completion of its acquisition of Dial Page Inc. [DPGE], the
Rutherford, N.J.-based company plans to conduct asingle-market beta
test of what Nextel executives call "reconfigured iDEN" before the end
of March. Based on the re-sults, the company will decide whether to
proceed with a "more broad-scale com-mercial introduction" of the
technology, Nextel disclosed in a recent Securities and Exchange
Commission filing.
Meanwhile, Geotek Communications Inc.--with a $25 million line of
credit provided by Hughes Electronics Corp. at its disposal to acquire
additional 900 MHz spectrum--will begin commercial operation of its
own SMR service in Philadelphia, its initial market, this month.
Finally, two companies developing interference-reducing cellular
filters that use high-temperature superconducting materials are bound
to make news. Illinois Superconductor Corp. is proceeding with
operational field trials, while Superconductor Technologies Inc.
announced the delivery of its second receiver filter subsystem for GSM
base stations last week.
...International: Asia, Brazil Seen as Where the Action Will Be
According to the Commerce Department's Office of
Telecommunications, Brazil and India (WB&F, Dec. 6, 1995) will merit
close scrutiny from the wireless industry this year as emerging
markets with the greatest untapped potential.
Also, noted agency analyst Stephanie McCullough, cellular
competition will come to five countries for the first time: South
Korea, Taiwan, Belgium, Poland and Ireland. The Czech Republic will
choose operators for two digital net-works this spring, and PCN
services may take shape in more European nations (page 7).
Three other Asian "tigers" also are likely to make waves in
cellular in 1996.
In China, handset prices and user tariffs are projected to fall,
spelling further rapid subscriber growth. Having recently awarded
Ericsson its third infrastructure contract in 12 months, Guangdong
Mobile Communications Corp. soon will qualify as one of the world's
biggest network operators, boasting subscriber capacity of ap-
proximately 1.2 million on its GSM network and more than 1.4 million
on its analog system.
In Indonesia, the state-run PT Telekomunikasi Indonesia is con-
verting its revenue-sharing arrangements with private investors in the
nation's five fixed and mobile operators into joint ventures. This
may open the door to more foreign capital, akin to the $800 million
and the $586 million that Nynex Corp.WB&F, Oct. 11, 1995) and Deutsche
Telekom paid, respectively, for equity stakes in Indonesia's two GSM
carriers last year.
In terms of sheer numbers of participants--seven, with a combined
sub-scriber base projected by Lehman Brothers Asia Ltd. at 1 million
as of the end of 1995--Malaysia is one of the most competitive of the
major markets for voice-based wireless services in the world. Celcom-
-the nation's dominant cellular operator (WB&F, Dec. 7, 1994) but
saddled with an analog-based system--faces a difficult task in
protecting its market position against several upstarts offering
higher-capacity GSM.

INTERCEL PREPARES TO LAUNCH OFFERINGS OF STOCK, NOTES
InterCel Inc. anticipates spending $110 million this year to
build out personal communication service (PCS) networks in major
trading areas for which Powertel PCS Partners L.P. won licenses last
year, followed by an ad-ditional commitment of $150 million to be
spent in 1997.
In its latest annual report, West Point,
Ga.-based InterCel disclosed that it plans to make concurrent public
offerings of stock and notes during the first quarter of 1996.
Approximate amounts raised from these offerings will be $115.5 million
and $150 million, respectively.
The offerings are being undertaken in conjunction with the
cellular network operator's plans to acquire Powertel (WB&F, July 5,
1995), a privately held con-sortium in which InterCel already is a
major participant.
Cash interest on the notes will not be payable before 2001.
InterCel also is negotiating a $20 million revolving credit facility.
While noting that its cellular operations have achieved "positive
operating income," InterCel warned in the annual report that
management expects "signifi-cant operating losses beginning in 1996,"
reflecting the impact of PCS buildout and marketing costs.

CELLULAR OPERATOR CLOSES TWO-TRACK DEBT FINANCING
Colombia's Communicacion Celular SA (Comcel) received net
proceeds of $145.5 million from a recently completed debt financing,
the company's first.
The funds will be used to expand the company's network coverage
in its eastern Colombia service area, which includes the capital city
of Bogota and which has a potential market population of 15.8 million
people.
Comcel, adding subscribers at the rate of 4,000 a month, had a
mid-December base of approximately 62,000. The company is in the
process of upgrading its technology, with the time division multiple
access digital standard to be paired with its advanced mobile phone
system analog network.
The financing, said majority owner Bell Canada International
Inc., had two components: a $100 million syndicated Eurodollar senior
secured term loan due in the year 2001; and an oversubscribed $150
million private placement of
high-yield senior deferred coupon bonds due 2003. The bonds, which
will accrete at a 13.125 percent rate compounded semiannually until
November 2000 and begin paying cash interest in May 2001, are combined
with warrants that, if fully ex-ercised, would amount to a 2 percent
equity interest in Comcel.
Montreal-based Bell Canada International, a BCE Inc. subsidiary,
owns 51 percent of Comcel. The rest is owned by Colombia's principal
telecom companies, wireline operator Empresa de Telecomunicaciones de
Santafe de Bogota and long-distance carrier Empresa Nacional de
Telecomunicaciones.

LACK OF HANDSETS SEEN IMPEDING DUAL-BAND GSM SERVICES
Cellular operators that employ global system for mobile
communications (GSM) technology in their networks should think long
and hard about pairing their services with GSM's higher-frequency
counterparts, DCS-1800 and PCS-1900.
So says Toni Stadelmann, deputy managing director of mobile
services for Swiss Telecom, which has deployed a DCS-1800 personal
communi-cations network (PCN) in Geneva to go with its nationwide GSM
cellular network.
While its experience with PCN has been limited
--the Geneva system was rolled out to coincide with the Telecom '95
trade show and conference last October--the PTT plans to introduce
DCS-1800 service in Zurich and Basel next fall as a capacity-enhancing
supplement to 900 MHz cel-lular in these high-traffic markets,
Stadelmann told the PCS-1900 in North America conference in Washington
last month.
In the long run, he said, the company hopes to reach roaming
agreements that would tie its PCN service together with Europe's GSM
cellular operators and countries that either have PCN already--the
United Kingdom, Germany and France--or are contemplating PCN rollouts,
including Sweden and Italy.
But there is one sizable problem: Wireless equipment
manufacturers need to speed up efforts to bring dual-band mobile
phones to market. The subject of GSM/DCS-1800 handsets also came up
during another recent meeting in Washington. "I don't know of any
vendor today committed to" developing these handsets, Malcolm Cowan,
general manager of the Richardson, Texas-based PCS business unit of
Northern Telecom Ltd., told the PCS Strategies conference.
If recent contract announcements are any indication, however,
Finland's Nokia Corp. may be the first to take the plunge.
The company has signed a two-year contract with Telia Mobitel,
the biggest GSM cellular network in Sweden, for the delivery of base
station subsystems that can be used either for a stand-alone DCS-1800
network or a seamless dual-band service. The base stations are
designed to bolster capacity in areas with heavy calling traffic as
well as to improve indoor coverage.
...Savings on Fixed and Operating Costs, More Flexibility in Setting
Rates
Nokia's other recent GSM/DCS-1800 infrastructure deals were with
NordicTel Holdings of Sweden and Sonofon of Denmark. It also was the
vendor for Swiss Telecom's DCS-1800 system.
For Swiss Telecom--scheduled to face competition in PCN beginning
in 1998, when spectrum set aside for private operators will be opened
up--pairing GSM and DCS-1800 will afford cost advantages in the areas
of infrastructure, its trans-mission network and customer service and
billing, Stadelmann said.
According to an analysis in which the PTT assigned different
weightings to these cost areas, potential savings of 30 percent can be
had--12 percent on both transmission network and billing/customer
service expenses and another 6 percent on infrastructure costs.
Moreover, in limiting its PCN coverage to urban areas, Stadelmann
said that Swiss Telecom has found that it can devise a rate structure
that offers greater appeal to the more price-conscious segment of the
wire-less voice market.
By setting rates close to those of the wireline network, Swiss
Telecom hopes to induce customers to switch over to PCN from the fixed
network for the mobility it affords. But that, of course, first would
require a more robust roaming capability.
All Stadelmann could do last month was ask rhetorically: "What
are the manufacturers ... doing?" He would like to see action sooner
rather than later.

GLENAYRE, NEXUS TEAM UP TO SUPPORT SPREAD-SPECTRUM TECHNOLOGY
Glenayre Technologies Inc. is considering plans to manufacture
re-ceivers incorporating technology developed by Nexus
Telecommunication Systems Ltd., which plans to market the technology
to paging operators aiming to address the "low end" of the two-way
messaging market.
The companies announced an agreement last month to collaborate on
inte-grating Glenayre-made switches, controllers and base stations
with Nexus's reverse-channel receivers and two-way applications
platform.
The deal is noteworthy because Glenayre will provide protocol
information on the company's GL3000 advanced paging terminal that
would facilitate the operation of the two-way Nexus Network on
existing one-way paging systems.
Besides possibly making Nexus-based receivers itself, Glenayre
holds an option to buy them from Nexus as an original equipment
manufacturer. In return, Nexus granted the Charlotte, N.C.-based
company the right to obtain a worldwide license on its return-channel
technology.
...U.S. Beta Test Draws Near
Essentially, the spread-spectrum Nexus technology (WB&F, Nov. 9,
1994) af-fords one-way paging carriers a low-speed return channel.
Nexus Network uses the unlicensed 902-928 MHz band for the return
channel, which operates at 200 bits per second--far slower than ReFlex
or pACT, the narrowband personal commun-ications service (PCS)
protocols developed by Motorola Inc. and AT&T Wireless Systems,
respectively.
Rani Cohen, senior vice president of Givatayim, Israel-based
Nexus, said that Nexus Network is geared toward service offerings
where speed is not critical--most notably, a confirmation or short-
messaging capability that would appeal to price-sensitive paging
subscribers.
A beta test of Nexus Network involving American Paging Inc. and
several other U.S. carriers is scheduled for next month.
Minneapolis-based American Paging holds five regional narrowband PCS
licenses.
Samsung, the South Korean conglomerate, is expected to begin
shipping
two-way paging units supporting Nexus Network by next summer.

DICHOTOMY IN TELECOM STOCKS AS MARKET CLOSES OUT 1995
Optimism over U.S. telecom deregulation helped provide ballast
for the stocks of some network operators, but many equipment-related
equities are still being held in check by uncertainty over profits.
... Glenayre gave shareholders a Christmas present in the form of a 3-

MULTIPLE SPECTRUM AUCTIONS, AND MORE ON THE WAY
At the FCC's Dec. 15 open meeting, Chairman Reed Hundt hailed the
prospect of simultaneous spectrum auctions as a "tremendous
accomplishment."
And with good reason. While the specialized mobile radio (SMR)
auction that began a month ago generally has moved along at a more
sedate pace, the C-block auction of bandwidth for broadband personal
communications services (PCS) kicked off with a bang on Dec. 18: Net
high bids for the 493 C-block licenses exceeded $1.2 billion by the
end of the fourth round.
One hopeful, Puerto Rico-based PCS 2000 L.P., offered an
astronomical $327 million in net high bids for basic trading area
(BTA) licenses in the first round, skewing the bidding. But the
hectic activity put to rest at least some doubts about whether the
long-delayed C-block auction would measure up to last year's PCS
auction of major trading area licenses.
Meanwhile, SMR operators praised FCC plans to auction wide-area
licenses for 10 MHz in contiguous blocks of 20, 60 and 120 channels in
the 800 MHz band. Also, two notices of proposed rulemaking (NPRMs)
will allot still more spectrum for use in wireless applications if
adopted as final rules by the FCC:
* One would open the 37-38.6 GHz band for point-to-point
microwave operations. BTA licenses would be auctioned off--possibly
as soon as a year from now--with credits and installment plans
accorded to small businesses that wish to bid. A provision would
permit the processing of pending license applications in the 38.6-40
GHz band.
* The other NPRM would give hospitals access to vacant
television channels in the very and ultra high-frequency bands,
doubling in many regions the number of frequencies available for
remote patient monitoring. Higher power levels also would be allowed
for medical telemetry devices.

For the fig-swirl: Melt butter over medium heat in a saucepan. Add brown sugar and stir to dessolve. Halve all of the figs and toss in the saucepan with water and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until you have chunky-jammy mixture. Add salt with one or two stirs, set aside and let cool completely.
Ice cream: In a small pot over medium heat, combine milk, and granulated sugar until sugar is completely disolved and the milk is just barely lukewarm. Whisk in the egg yolks. Set mixture in the fridge and wait until the fig mixture is cooled.
Using an ice cream machine, pour liquids into the frozen bassin and process according to manufacturer instruction, i.e., let spin and thicken for 20 minutes before adding mascarpone, fig jam mixture and the nuts. Continue process for +/- 10 minutes. Pour semi.frozen mixture into a pyrex dish or glass tupperware. Freeze for at least two hours before serving.

--- layout: post title: "The Simplest Artificial Neuron" date: 2016-04-15 categories: twentysixteen ---
The human brain is a complicated system that is responsible for every single human accomplishment and endeavor. It is the best example we currently have of intelligence. This is the kind of intelligence that researchers are currently trying to emulate. If we are trying to understand the brain at it's most basic level, We can started by learning about neurons. Neurons are the underlying cause of all human congnition and behavior. Neurons are also not unique to humans, most animals have neurons. These neurons communicate to each other with electrical signals and chemical processes. The neurons in the nervous system communicate through axon terminals and dendrites. This means every neuron has an input and an output.
An artificial neuron is also structured in the same way (It has an input and an output). An artificial neuron has weight vector which determines how important an input is for the kind of output that we want from the neuron. The artificial neuron also has an activation function that gives us the actual output of the neuron. We take the dot product of the input vector and the weight vector to get the input that we need for our activation function. Here is a quick summary of the Dot Product. The activation function that is commonly used is The Sigmoid Function. Here is a quick summary of the Sigmoid Function.
Summary: A simple Artificial Neuron is a Sigmoid Function whose input is the dot product of the weight vector and the input vector.

Difference between HTML and CSS:
To know the difference we need to know that they both make, a website.
So think of website as your home.
HTML is the foundation which are the walls, bedroom, toilet, doors etc.
CSS is what define the sizes of the rooms for example, design, and layout of the whole house.
Control Flow and loop:
Control flow is the order in which individual statements, instructions or function calls of an imperative program are executed
A loop is a sequence of statements which is specified once but which may be carried out several times in succession
So if we look deep within ourselves control flow is like our daily routines.
We get up, get ready, get to work or school, spend the day there, go home, rest and sleep for example.
Loops are routines we do multiple times a day.
Just like the list above , we do those day after day.
You can also say eating 3 x a day, breathing continuosly, even blinking is like looping.
DOM- what is it?
Not that Dom!
It's this one below:
The Document Object Model (DOM) is a programming API for HTML and XML documents. It defines the logical structure of documents and the way a document is accessed and manipulated.
The image above is how the DOM will interpret a HTML document.
If you look at the images below, the left side is me using the DOM on a website
The right side is the page after some manipulation with the DOM.
Arrays and objects differences:
Both arrays and objects are ways of grouping pieces of data together into meaning collections.
They differ however because an array is used to store a group of values in order, called elements, and can access them through their sequence.
You can retrieve information about the elements base on their position in the array.
So let's treat a library as an array. There are aisles for book type, titles, chapters, and pages.
So if you need to read the ending of a book you like, you will first go to the correct aisle first base on the type, then look for the title, and then go through the contents of that book.
On the other hand, you can access data on an object through properties of the values.
Still thinking of the library, let say takapuna library as the name, place is takapuna, car park spaces is 60.
If you ask for its name it will tell you its assigned name property of takapuna.
What are functions?
Functions is a block of code designed to perform a particular task.
It needs to be called/ invoke for it to be executed.
Think of like a math equation. The task is to add a+b.
It will always stay like the equation unless you ask for the answer.

The icon adds it to the pinned achievements, shown in gray. This way, you can track which achievements you already have and which ones you have to complete in order to meet the secret ending criteria.
To remove an achievement from the saved list, you can click on . Click "Clear" to remove all achievements at once from the list.
All saved achievements are stored locally in your browser and will be restored the next time you open the page. Click "Copy" to copy a list of names of all saved achievements to the clipboard. You can then paste and store them elsewhere.
Press Enter to pin the first search result and Shift+Enter to mark it as completed. This works in both modes.

[gecode-users] Crash while freeing memory in connection with VS2010

Hi,
update: I built Gecode binaries myself with VS2010 and the test application works fine...
What precisely are you going to fix for 3.4.3? I'm not sure if I got you right.
Best,
Alexander

I came to the same conclusion and this is already a problem if you do not mix versions: allocation and deallocation must always be done by the same DLL, this is a known bug in Windows. I'll fix that for 3.4.3.
We do not use project files but Makefiles with Cygwin, check MPG for details.

Subject: AW: [gecode-users] Crash while freeing memory in connection with VS2010
Hi,
after some research I came to the following conclusion:
Due to inlining, the memory of the node in LinExpr will be allocated by msvcr100d.dll, whilst at least the destructor of LinExpr is not inlined. The memory of the node will therefore be freed by msvcr90d.dll. This will not work.
As I see it, there is no other way for me than to have Gecode bound to msvcr100d.dll. Can you help me out by making your VS2008 project files available? This way, it would be much easier to migrate to VS2010 than to start from scratch.
Cheers,
Alexander

Hi,
I made another project (currently for x86 platform) to make sure it is unmanaged. Unfortunately, the problem still arises, although I cannot see anything suspicious. Any other idea?
I'm using the 3.4.2 binaries from your site, so both msvcr90d.dll and msvcr100d.dll are currently loaded.
Thanks for any suggestion,
Alexander

Please,
also let us know which platform (x86 versus x64) and whether you use the binaries we distribute or have build them yourselves (then we need to know whether you built with 2008 or 2010)
Thanks

Hi,
You seem to be using managed C++. Have you tried running your program with standard C++? The different memory policy might be a source of problems.
I don't have a Windows machine to test on, so I haven't tried your program myself.
Cheers,
Mikael

Hi once again,
the code below compiles and links in both versions (so I assume I did not make an all too obvious modeling mistake) but it crashes in VS2010 in contrast to VS2008(Express).
The error seems to occur during the destruction of the linear expression. The debugger sets the break point to Heap::rfree(void* p) in heap.hpp in all three cases.
Can you reproduce it?
Thanks for help,
Alexander
#include <gecode/minimodel.hh>

IntVar e2 = expr(*this, z); // error 1
IntArgs cost(2);
for (int v=0; v<2; ++v)
{
cost[v] = v;
}
LinExpr xy = element(cost, z);
IntVar e3 = expr(*this, xy);
IntVar e4 = expr(*this, element(cost, z)); // error 2
} // error 3 (in destructor)
GecodeTest(bool share, GecodeTest& s) : Space(share, s) {}

};
// main function
int main(array<System::String ^> ^args)
{
GecodeTest* m = new GecodeTest;
delete m;
return 0;
}

How this information is shared
We share it internally and with some trusted partners
We share your personal data with your consent or as necessary to complete any transaction or provide any product you have requested or authorized.

Railroad Worker Obi:
Oh, you brought the book! Yes, I remember now!
The Sky Wagon was planned by the giants of the Age of Titans! After they were extinct, the Dwarves proceeded with the plan as if it were their own!
But once the Dwarf King was dead and the Elders started governing the Dwarves, the plan was shelved because of other Guilds' pressure.
Those were sad days indeed! So much potential income gone to waste...
This hammer comes from that time! So... The ghost told you to bring me this hammer?
"Yes."


The python library pymoduleconnector wraps the ModuleConnector C++ library. The main difference between the libraries are that the python wrapper returns a data object and throws exceptions, while the C++ uses output parameters for the output data and returns a SUCCESS or an error code.
See the ModuleConnector documentation for details.
An installation script is provided and the pymoduleconnector package is installed by running the following command from the pymoduleconnector root directory:
$ python setup.py install
If you are unsure of how to install python, we recommend to install the python distribution package anaconda from continuum: https://www.continuum.io/downloads
All ModuleConnector functionality is available through the pymoduleconnector.moduleconnector.ModuleConnector class which gives access to the different interfaces supported by a module.
The following interfaces are supported by the ModuleConnector python wrapper:
