For almost forty years the seemingly harmless term “postmodern” has sown discord and ruffled feathers in the intellectual world. Mere sight of the term has caused some commentators to see red in more than one sense: “postmodernism” for them embodies the utter degeneracy of the 1960s Left. For their part, more than a few commentators on the left have associated the term with the neoliberal climate

Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) estimation is commonly used in wireless receivers to enhance the performance in different ways. In this paper a novel low complexity SNR estimator for OFDM is proposed. The estimator might be implemented using floating point representation or by using only the sign-bit, and can if desired be effectively implemented by reconfiguring the standard correlator used for time-

The introduction and the diffusion of digital technology have strongly affected the way archaeologists manage and perceive the information detected during the field investigation process. In the last two decades digital instruments have been used in archaeology at any level, and their constant employment increased the opportunities for researchers and scholars to detect, document, analyse and visu

The purpose of this study was to evaluate four different viewing procedures as part of improving viewing conditions of breast tomosynthesis (BT) image volumes. The procedures consisted of free scroll volume browsing, and a combination of initial cine loops at three different frame rates (9, 14 and 25 fps) terminated upon request followed by free scroll volume browsing. Fifty-five normal BT image v

This paper considers evaluation of structural robustness for a multi-span concrete bridge crossing multiple rail tracks, in particular the effect of extraordinary exposures on the bridge system. A case study is performed investigating the bridge system’s response to a train collision caused by derailment in an area near the bridge supports. The probability of such an event occurring is estimated f
