Laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) spectra of a bush and numerous branches of Chinese Longjing tea were investigated remotely with lidar techniques. The intensity ratio between the far red fluorescence (FRF) and red fluorescence (RF) due to the chlorophyll content of the tea branches were analyzed to study the growth conditions in different villages around Hangzhou, China. Dried Longjing tea leaves
The purpose of this paper is threefold; to present a framework for assessing reporting of case study based research, to evaluate recently published case study based research within the area of logistics and supply chain management and finally to identify and suggest areas for improvement in the reporting of case study based research within the same field. The paper is based on an initial review of
The decoding problem is a fundamental problem in computational complexity theory. In particular, the efficiency of which the problem can be decided has implications on the security of cryptosystems based on hard problems in coding theory. Stern's algorithm has long been the best algorithm available, with slight modifications over the years yielding only small speed-ups. This paper describes an imp
This paper attempts to address the failings of a predominant paradigm in IS research and practice that emphasises technological determinism. This paradigm makes use of a false belief in the power of rationality in organizational decision-making, and a mythology in which organizational actors can be viewed as passive ‘users’ of technology. We wish to create a discussion of the nature and role of pr
The optical design for the proposed Euro50 extremely large telescopewith integrated adaptive optics (AO) is presented. For atmosphericturbulence correction, we propose using single and dual-conjugate AOsystems working with natural and laser guide stars. The corrective shapeof the deformable mirrors (DMs) is derived from an analytical algorithmbased on minimization of the sum of the residual power

While contemporary international law is often understood as teleological, encompassing notions such as progress, development, and prosperity for all of human kind, in this essay the field of the international law of belligerent occupation is read as katechonic, as embodying the figure of the katechon within international law’s eschatology. The essay considers Carl Schmitt’s political theology thro
