The sound of metal: amateur brass bands in southern Benin by Hoh, LM

“…Previous scholarship subsumes postcolonial musical performance into social scripts of resistance, framing brass bands in particular within cultural modes of mimesis, indigenization, or appropriation. …”

An Ultra-Wideband Antenna with Triple Band-Notched Characteristics for Wearable Application by Rashid, M. A. A, Shah, S. M, Majid, H. A, Musa, U, Suriani, N. S

“…Nevertheless, the antenna is able to reject the WiMAX and C-band as well as the WLAN band. The simulated specific absorption rate (SAR) results show that the antenna complies with the SAR limit Federal Communication Commission (FCC) and International Commission of Non-Ionizing Radiation Protections (ICNIRP) standards for 1 mW input power. …”

The trembling-hand problem for LTLf planning by Yu, P, Zhu, S, De Giacomo, G, Vardi, M

“…We study the trembling-hand problem in the context of reasoning about actions and planning for temporally extended goals expressed in Linear Temporal Logic on finite traces (LTLf), where we want to synthesize a strategy (aka plan) that maximizes the probability of satisfying the LTLf goal in spite of the trembling hand. …”

The golden bull : is it coming? (current prospects of gold trading) by Lim, Wee Beng, Lim, Daniel Chih Ming, Leong, Kum Hoe

“…We must admit that over the past few years, the price of gold has been in its doldrums and has seemingly been contained within a narrow band of prices. Unlike most other investments, gold hoarding not only does not reap annual returns in the form of dividends or interests (with the exception of gold shares and the like), it instead entails the incurrence of an annual maintenance fee for storage, insurance and other expenses. …”
