Assessment of consumer acceptance of kilishi of African carp (Labeo coubie Rueppell) and Elephant snout (Hyperopisus bebe occidentalis, Guenther)

This study was carried out to assess consumers' acceptance of kilishi prepared from Labeo coubie and Hyperopisus bebe occidentalis in Sokoto. The organoleptic properties (texture, odour, taste and flavour) of kilishi in its fresh form and under storage for 16 weeks were determined. The mean scores for the organoleptic assessment (6.90 and 7.19 for kilishi of Labeo and Hyperopisus respectively) showed that fish kilishi was highly acceptable. Hyperopisus kilishi recorded slightly higher mean scores for the tested organoleptic properties. The declining pattern of the sensory assessment scores with length of storage indicated that the optimum storage period under the room temperature for kilishi made from the experimental fish species in the study area was 6-8 weeks. Further research on appropriate storage methods is desirable. However, preparation of fish kilishi could be explored as alternative preservation technique to reduce fish spoilage especially during the glut in supply and to diversify fish products

分离扇回旋加速器的接受度及效率；Acceptance and efficiency of sector-separated cyclotron

以9.7MeV/u的238U36+,5.62MeV/u的70Zn10+为典型离子,分析并模拟了分离扇回旋加速器(SSC)的注入、加速和引出,得到了SSC在理论等时场下横向和纵向的接受度。为了研究SSC在实际情况下的接受度,在实测场的基础上采用Kr-Kb方法以及Lagrange插值方法建立了与实际比较符合的等时场,计算了该等时场下SSC横向和纵向的接受度,发现了导致SSC实际接受度和传输效率低的主要原因在于注入系统中的MSI3元件和引出系统中的MSE3元件设计存在缺陷。模拟结果显示,通过改变MSI3和MSE3的曲率或者垫铁改变元件内部的场分布可以改善SSC的实际接受度和传输效率。

Message-Driven Processor Architecture: Verson 11

The Message-Driven Processor is a node of a large-scale multiprocessor being developed by the Concurrent VLSI Architecture Group. It is intended to support fine-grained, message passing, parallel computation. It contains several novel architectural features, such as a low-latency network interface, extensive type-checking hardware, and on-chip memory that can be used as an associative lookup table. This document is a programmer's guide to the MDP. It describes the processor's register architecture, instruction set, and the data types supported by the processor. It also details the MDP's message sending and exception handling facilities.

Determining Acceptance Possibility for a Quantum Computation is Hard for PH

It is shown that determining whether a quantum computation has a non-zero probability of accepting is at least as hard as the polynomial time hierarchy. This hardness result also applies to determining in general whether a given quantum basis state appears with nonzero amplitude in a superposition, or whether a given quantum bit has positive expectation value at the end of a quantum computation.
