The Reconstruction of Binary Images in Discrete Tomography by Using the Binary Steering Scheme
… binary sparse system matrix A and analyze the work load of the fast execution of the matrix-vector multiplication Ax. Numerical experiments are given to illustrate faster convergence by binary steering block iterations and efficient storage of A.</p>

A binary relation inference network for constrained optimization
… thesis presents a novel parallel computing network designed for some optimization problems which can be represented by binary relations and the calculation upon them. Traditional graph search techniques provide sequential solutions to constraint satisfaction, but their speed is limited by the …

Design, prototyping and preliminary testing of an elastic-powered climbing exoskeleton
… powered elastic mechanisms can be used to reduce work requirements of muscles, by storing and releasing energy to more evenly distribute work load. An exoskeleton was designed to delay human fatigue during rock climbing. This exoskeleton stores energy in the less intensive motion, extension while …

AN EVALUATION OF LACTATE AND RESPIRATORY RESPONSES TO INCREMENTAL AND CONSTANT LOAD WORK BOUTS.
… All subjects participated in two incremental work load (IWL) and four constant work load (CWL) tests that consisted of horizontal treadmill running at different speeds. The IWL tests elicited linear increases in VO₂ and were highly correlated for both Group 1 (r = .986) and Group 2 (r = .999). …

Stress and its effects on the employees in a Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) organisation
… are especially even more at risk due to their work-load as well as home-life balance and child rearing responsibilities which could have a spill over effect at work. Although sources of stress vary for employees due to their work as well as life experiences, it could still result in negative …
