The existence of universal quantum computers has been theoretically well established.However, building up swaddle wraps a real quantum computer system not only relies on the theory of universality, but also needs methods to satisfy requirements on other features, such as programmability, modularity, scalability, etc.To this end, here we study the r
Neural basis of corruption in power-holders
Corruption often involves bribery, when a briber suborns a power-holder to gain advantages usually at a cost of moral transgression.Despite its wide presence in human societies, the neurocomputational basis of bribery remains elusive.Here, using model-based fMRI, we investigated the neural substrates of how a power-holder decides to accept or rejec
Mitigating Timing Side-Channel Attacks in Software-Defined Networks: Detection and Response
Software-defined networking (SDN) is an innovative technology that has the potential to enhance the scalability, flexibility, and security of telecommunications networks.The CLEANSER emergence and development of SDNs have introduced new opportunities and challenges in the telecommunications industry.One of the major challenges encountered by SDNs i
Ratification of the Marrakesh Treaty and New Opportunities for Libraries in Providing the Constitutional Rights of Persons with Visual Impairment
The article outlines the possibilities of ensuring proper access for persons with visual impairments to published works on the same terms as for persons with normal vision, provided that the countries accede to the Marrakesh Treaty.The provisions of the Marrakesh Treaty, which establish general obligations regarding restrictions under the Berne Con
The Effect of Ageing on Physical and Chemical Properties of Asphalt Cement
Two grades of Transmission paving asphalt with penetration of 46 and 65 are studied for determining changes in their physical and chemical properties caused by ageing.The ageing process has been conducted on two petroleum paving asphalt cement using thin film oven test at 150, 163 and 175 C, and ageing time 5, 10,15, 20, 25 and 30 hours.The effect
