Sanitation and Water Supply in Low-income Countries - Mara, DD; Evans, BE
Water supply, sanitation and the means of practicing basic hygiene (WASH) are amongst the fundamental requirements of life. For the past 50 to 150 years people living in Europe, America and a few capital cities elsewhere around the globe have come to take for granted the provision of a virtually limitless supply of clean, safe water and the seemingly effortless removal of all human wastes ‘out of sight and out of mind’. That this miracle of collective political will, urban planning and engineering bravura is so much taken for granted is credit to the public health engineers, planners, civic administrators...

Non-classical Aspects in Proof Complexity - Beyersdorff, O
Proof complexity focuses on the complexity of theorem proving procedures, a topic which is tightly linked to questions from computational complexity (the separation of complexity classes), first-order arithmetic theories (bounded arithmetic), and practical questions as automated theorem proving. One fascinating question in proof complexity is whether powerful computational resources as randomness or oracle access can shorten proofs or speed up proof search. In this dissertation we investigated these questions for proof systems that use a limited amount of non-uniform information (advice). This model is very interesting as--- in contrast to the classical setting---it admits an optimal proof system as recently...

New Aesthetics in Computer Music 1995- - Myatt, Tony
This text describes the evolution and contextual basis for the emergence of new aesthetic approaches to computer music, which were developed outside academic or subsidised art institutions, in the commercial domain, from 1995, coinciding with the widespread use of portable computers in this field. It draws upon materials developed and researched in collaboration with professional practitioners during an AHRC research project about the emergence and operation of this field of work. Artists' methods, practice, philosophical and artistic contexts are described along with frameworks for analysis, critical assessment and understanding this radical and challenging area of sound art/music practice.
