The paper discusses the general relation between sociology and literature and argues that the former has not only a lot in common with the latter, but also things to include and elaborate on. The paper uses as examples a number of sociologists and novelists and compares their ways of interpreting modern society and modern man.
The aim of the RAID project (Robot for Assisting the Integration of the Disabled) is to develop and demonstrate a prototype robotic workstation for use by disabled people. The RAID project is part of the European Community TIDE program (Technology for the socio-economic Integration of disabled and Elderly people). The robotized system is intended primarily for vocational use in an office environ
We give some new examples of bounded multilinear forms on the Hilbert spaces l(2) and L-2(0, infinity). We characterize those which are compact or Hilbert-Schmidt. In particular, we study m-linear forms (m >= 3) on l(2) which can be regarded as the multilinear analogue of the famous Hilbert matrix. We also determine the norm of the permanent on K-n, where K = R or C.
This paper examines tongue body movements between two vowels with particular emphasis on the shape of the movement paths. Earlier work on tongue movements in speech has mostly focused on movements for consonants. The movements analyzed are from the first to the second vowel in a sequence of vowel-bilabial consonant-vowel. Native speakers of Japanese and Italian served as subjects. The linguistic m
The new contacts with the west reaffirmed the idea of interaction between the west and the Arab world. New literary works compared and contrasted the spirituality of the East with the materialism of the West - a theme that became a common one in modern Arabic literature.
