Making Enemies : The Logic of Immorality in Ciceronian Oratory

This thesis examines the role played by the topic of immorality in the extant speeches of the Roman politician Marcus Tullius Cicero (106-43 BCE)and subsequently in the Roman political culture of the late Republic. It traces the portraits of immorality that Cicero made of his political and forensic enemies throughout his political career and his use of immorality as an argument in the Roman Senate

Estimation and Optimal Configurations for Localization Using Cooperative UAVs

The time-difference of arrival techniques are adapted to locate networked enemy radars using a cooperative team of unmanned aerial vehicles. The team is engaged in deceiving the radars, which limits where they can fly and requires accurate radar positions to be known. Two time-differences of radar pulse arrivals at two vehicle pairs are used to localize one of the radars. An explicit solution for

An On-Demand WebRTC and IoT Device Tunneling Service for Hospitals

In this paper we present the implementation of a WebRTC gateway service that can forward ad-hoc RTP data plane traffic from a browser inside a local hospital network to a browser on a local home network. The gateway leverages the same infrastructure used by the hospital to tunnel sensor and control data for medical devices in home-care deployments. In our use case, doctors at hospitals can only ac

Creep behavior of structural timber under varying humidity conditions

The effects on wood of simultaneous mechanical and moisture loading are studied. A constitutive model is given for the case of uniaxial stress in the longitudinal direction. The model has been quantified on the basis of test results found in literature. The validity of the model was checked independently against other tests and a number of practical load situations were studied. Finally the servic

Reverse Link Capacity of Power-Controlled CDMA Systems with Antenna Arrays In a Multipath Fading Environment

In this paper, reverse link capacity of a signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) based power-controlled direct-sequence code-division multiple-access (DS-CDMA) system, with the use of an antenna array and a Rake receiver in a multiple cell environment, is investigated. Both transmit and receive beamforming in the reverse link are considered. Instead of using tedious iterative methods, reverse link use

How is capability assessment related to risk assessment? Evaluating existing research and current application from a design science perspective

Several countries use capability assessments as a part of their efforts to manage risk. However, it is unclear how such assessments are connected to other risk management activities, e.g. risk assessment. Therefore, the aim of the present paper is to present a study of how capability assessment is related to risk assessment. Capability assessment methods were identified through a scoping study and
