DOPRINOS RASPRAVI O NAČELU JEDNAKOSTI PROCESNIH SREDSTAVA by Dejan Bodul, Sanja Grbić

“…Pokušava se odgovoriti i na pitanje zahtijevaju li sveukupno loši indikatori stečajnog postupka, koji su rezultat strukturalnih problema, “strože” postupovne mjere radi razrješenja takve situacije. Predmet analize bit će i nomotehnička dimenzija ovog pitanja, budući da je za isto rješenje u starom Stečajnom zakonu (NN, 44/96., 29/99., 129/00., 123/03., 82/06., 116/10., 25/12. i 45/13.) pred Ustavnim sudom RH pokrenut postupak za ocjenu suglasnosti s Ustavom te je do donošenja konačne odluke privremeno obustavljeno izvršenje svih pojedinačnih akata i radnji koje se poduzimaju na temelju osporene zakonske odredbe.…”

Implementation of Manchester codec for information transmission systems based on AVR and ARM architecture microcontrollers by Sadchenko А. V., Kushnirenko O. A., Kushnirenko N. P., Sadchenko O. V., Troyanskiy O. V.

“…In order to adapt the UART protocol to the conditions of Manchester encoding, the 8N1 mode is selected at the hardware level, which means 8 data bits, 1 stop and 1 start bit. The software implementation of the encoder consists in the fact that out of the total possible volume of 256 code combinations, 16 are selected that satisfy the Manchester 2 code, while the start and stop conditions for data bytes transmitted in a row also satisfy the structure of the Manchester code. …”

Robust Detection for Chipless RFID Tags Based on Compact Printable Alphabets by Hatem Rmili, Boularess Oussama, Jawad Yousaf, Bandar Hakim, Raj Mittra, Taoufik Aguili, Smail Tedjini

“…The proposed letters of the alphabet are easily printable on the tag and provide an efficient way to visually recognized them and, hence, to detect them in a robust way, even with a low coding density of 2.63 bit/cm². The advantages of the proposed novel identification method, i.e., utilization of the both co- and cross-polar RCS characteristics for the printable clipless RFID tags are the enhancement of the coding density, security and better detection of the alphabet tags with different fonts by capturing the tag characteristics with better signal to noise ratio (SNR). …”
