https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dining%20cryptographers%20problem | In cryptography, the dining cryptographers problem studies how to perform a secure multi-party computation of the boolean-XOR function. David Chaum first proposed this problem in the early 1980s and used it as an illustrative example to show that it was possible to send anonymous messages with unconditional sender and ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential%20game | In game theory, differential games are a group of problems related to the modeling and analysis of conflict in the context of a dynamical system. More specifically, a state variable or variables evolve over time according to a differential equation. Early analyses reflected military interests, considering two actors—... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falls%20in%20older%20adults | Falls in older adults are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality and are a major class of preventable injuries. Falling is one of the most common accidents that cause a loss in the quality of life for older adults, and is usually precipitated by a loss of balance and weakness in the legs. The cause of falling i... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delay-line%20oscillator | A delay-line oscillator is a form of electronic oscillator that uses a delay line as its principal timing element.
The circuit is set to oscillate by inverting the output of the delay line and feeding that signal back to the input of the delay line with appropriate amplification. The simplest style of delay-line oscil... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budapest%20Declaration%20on%20Machine%20Readable%20Travel%20Documents | The Budapest Declaration on Machine Readable Travel Documents is a declaration issued by the Future of Identity in the Information Society (FIDIS), a Network of Excellence, to raise the concern to the public to the risks associated by a security architecture related to the management of Machine Readable Travel Document... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XF-73 | XF-73 (Exeporfinium chloride) is an experimental drug candidate. It is an anti-microbial that works via weakening bacteria cell walls. It is a potential treatment for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and possibly Clostridium difficile. It is being developed by Destiny Pharma Ltd.
Structurally, it is ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manifest%20typing | In computer science, manifest typing is explicit identification by the software programmer of the type of each variable being declared. For example: if variable X is going to store integers then its type must be declared as integer. The term "manifest typing" is often used with the term latent typing to describe the di... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander%20van%20Oudenaarden | Alexander van Oudenaarden (19 March 1970) is a Dutch biophysicist and systems biologist. He is a leading researcher in stem cell biology, specialising in single cell techniques. In 2012 he started as director of the Hubrecht Institute and was awarded three times an ERC Advanced Grant, in 2012, 2017, and 2022. He was aw... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyphase%20merge%20sort | A polyphase merge sort is a variation of a bottom-up merge sort that sorts a list using an initial uneven distribution of sub-lists (runs), primarily used for external sorting, and is more efficient than an ordinary merge sort when there are fewer than eight external working files (such as a tape drive or a file on a h... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperstability | In stability theory, hyperstability is a property of a system that requires the state vector to remain bounded if the inputs are restricted to belonging to a subset of the set of all possible inputs.
Definition: A system is hyperstable if there are two constants such that any state trajectory of the system satisfies... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SYZ%20conjecture | The SYZ conjecture is an attempt to understand the mirror symmetry conjecture, an issue in theoretical physics and mathematics. The original conjecture was proposed in a paper by Strominger, Yau, and Zaslow, entitled "Mirror Symmetry is T-duality".
Along with the homological mirror symmetry conjecture, it is one of t... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alberto%20Isidori | Alberto Isidori was born on January 24, 1942, in Rapallo and is an Italian control theorist. He is a Professor of Automatic Control at the University of Rome and an Affiliate Professor of Electrical & Systems Engineering at Washington University in St. Louis. He is well-known as the author of the book Nonlinear Contr... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George%20Zames | George Zames (January 7, 1934 – August 10, 1997) was a Polish-Canadian control theorist and professor at McGill University, Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Zames is known for his fundamental contributions to the theory of robust control, and was credited for the development of various well-known results such as small-gain th... |
