Motivation and content of the paper Sample Clauses

Motivation and content of the paper. Motivation. This article addresses consensus and set agreement in fully anonymous sys- tems, and has two primary motivations. The first is related to the basics of computing, namely, computability and complexity lower/upper bounds. Increasing our knowledge of what can (or cannot) be done in the context of full anonymity (i.e., when both the processes and the memory are anonymous), and providing associated necessary and sufficient conditions, helps us determine the weakest system assumptions under which fundamental problems, such as consensus and set agreement can be solved. The second motivation is application-oriented. It appears that the concept of an anonymous memory allows epigenetic cell modification to be modeled from a com- puting point of view [27]. In [27] the authors model histone modifiers (which are a specific type of proteins) as two different types of writer processors and two different types of eraser processors that communicate by accessing an anonymous shared mem- ory array which corresponds to a stretch of DNA, and for such a setting formally define the epigenetic consensus problem. Hence, anonymous shared memories could be use- ful in biologically inspired distributed systems [21, 22]. If this is the case, mastering 1 For a model where the registers are non-anonymous, it is known that the computational power of the RW model and the RW/Snap model are the same despite asynchrony and any number of process crashes [1, 3]. For fully anonymous systems, this question is open. agreement problems in such an adversarial context could reveal to be important from an application point of view.

  • Audit of Existing Content and Functionality By May 1, 2017, the District will propose for OCR’s review and approval the identity and bona fides of an Auditor (corporation or individual) to audit all content and functionality on its website, including, but not limited to, the home page, all subordinate pages, and intranet pages and sites, to identify any online content or functionality that is inaccessible to persons with disabilities, including online content and functionality developed by, maintained by, or offered through a third party vendor or an open source. The Auditor will have sufficient knowledge and experience in website accessibility for people with disabilities to carry out all related tasks, including developing a Proposed Corrective Action Plan. The Audit will use the Benchmarks for Measuring Accessibility set out above, unless the District receives prior permission from OCR to use a different standard as a benchmark. During the Audit, the District will also seek input from members of the public with disabilities, including parents, students, employees, and others associated with the District, and other persons knowledgeable about website accessibility, regarding the accessibility of its online content and functionality.

  • COMMITMENT OF THE PARTIES By signing9 this document, the teaching staff member, the sending institution/enterprise and the receiving institution confirm that they approve the proposed mobility agreement. The sending higher education institution supports the staff mobility as part of its modernisation and internationalisation strategy and will recognise it as a component in any evaluation or assessment of the teaching staff member. The teaching staff member will share his/her experience, in particular its impact on his/her professional development and on the sending higher education institution, as a source of inspiration to others. The teaching staff member and the beneficiary institution commit to the requirements set out in the grant agreement signed between them. The teaching staff member and the receiving institution will communicate to the sending institution/enterprise any problems or changes regarding the proposed mobility programme or mobility period. The teaching staff member Name: Signature: Date: The sending institution/enterprise Name of the responsible person: Signature: Date: The receiving institution Name of the responsible person: Signature: Date: 1 Adaptations of this template: In case the mobility combines teaching and training activities, this template should be used and adjusted to fit both activity types. In the case of mobility between Programme and Partner Country HEIs, this agreement must be always signed by the staff member, the Programme Country HEI and the Partner Country HEI (three signatures in total). In the case of invited staff from enterprises to teach in Partner Country HEIs, this agreement must be signed by the participant, the Programme Country HEI as beneficiary; the Partner Country HEI receiving the staff member and the Programme Country enterprise (four signatures in total). An additional space will be added for signature of the Programme Country HEI organising the mobility. For invited staff from enterprises to teach in Programme Country HEIs, it will be sufficient with the signature of the staff member, the Programme Country HEI and the sending organisation (three signatures in total, same as in mobility between Programme Countries).
