Nicomachus (4) Flavianus, Virius, Roman senator, c. 340–394 CE
No full textVirius Nicomachus (4) Flavianus (c. 340–394 CE), was a Roman aristocrat, officeholder, and author, though no works survive. He has traditionally been seen alongside his fellow senators Vettius Agorius Praetextatus and Q. Aurelius Symmachus as a major figure in the last days of Roman paganism; Flavianus in particular is seen as having supported a pagan revival under the usurper Eugenius, whom he served as praetorian prefect and consul in 394 before committing suicide upon Eugenius’s defeat by Theodosius I at the Battle of the River Frigidus. The supposed pagan revival has been called into question in recent scholarship. Flavianus is also known to have written a history, which is lost
LHCb sensitivity to with and U-spin Symmetry
No full textRecent theoretical work has shown that the combined measurement of the B0d to pi^+ pi^- and B0s to K^+K^- CP asymmetries, under the assumption of invariance of the strong interaction dynamics by exchanging the d and s quarks (U-spin symmetry), provides a way to determine the CKM phase gamma. A study of the LHCb senitivity of the direct and mixing-induced CP-violating observables of these decays is made and the results are presented, as well as the angle gamma sensitivity. To this purpose a selection optimization is performed and the annual yield and background-to-signal ratios for specific and combinatorial backgrounds are esimated for each B0_(d/s) to h^+ h^- decay channel
Zobecnění objektově orientovaného paradigmatu zavedením morfologie objektů
No full textModeling protean objects, i.e. objects adapting their structure and behavior dynamically with respect to a changeable environment, is often challenging in traditional object-oriented languages. According to the author, the root cause of this problem lies in the class-based conceptual framework embedded in the foundation of the object-oriented para-digm. The proposed paradigm Object Morphology (OM) is greatly influenced by prototype theory developed in the field of cognitive psychology. OM abandons the notion of class and suggests, instead, that the abstractions of protean objects should be established through the construction of morph models describing the possible forms of those objects. This the-sis defines the theoretical foundations of OM, which is further used to specify the elements of prototypical object-oriented analysis. An important part of this work is also a proof-of-concept implementation of an OM framework in Scala
Zobecnění objektově orientovaného paradigmatu zavedením morfologie objektů
No full textModelování objektů, které mohou měnit svoji strukturu a chování dynamicky s ohledem na změny v prostředí, je v tradičních objektově orientovaných jazycích velmi obtížné. Podle autora tkví problém v konceptuálním rámci, který je základem objektově orientovaného paradigmatu. Navrhované paradigma nazvané morfologie objektů (MO) je výrazně ovliv-něno teorií prototypů z oblasti kognitivní psychologie. MO opouští pojem třída a navrhuje, aby se abstrakce proměnlivých objektů vytvářely sestavováním tzv. modelů proměnlivosti, které popisují možné formy modelovaných objektů. Práce definuje teoretické základy pa-radigmatu, které jsou použity pro následnou specifikaci metodiky analýzy a návrhu aplika-cí. Součástí práce je také referenční implementace rámce vybudovaného nad zmíněným paradigmatem v jazyce Scala.Modeling protean objects, i.e. objects adapting their structure and behavior dynamically with respect to a changeable environment, is often challenging in traditional object-oriented languages.

Deux publicains et leur tombeau
No full textA new displaced inscription found in Palmyra, in Latin, Greek and Palmyrene, gives the names of two freedmen who have built together a tomb in AD 56/57. They were C. Virius Alcimus and T. Statilius Hermes. The former is also known from his likeness in the British Museum (WA 125036), where he is shown with his wife Viria Phoibe. The same man is also mentioned in the Tariff as a publican, together with his partner (as restored by I.S. Shifman), during or before the governorship of Licinius Mucianus (AD 67-69). Accordingly, the BM sculpture cannot be later than the second half of the 1st cent., being thus one of the earliest funerary sculptures on record from Palmyra.Gawlikowski M.

Object Oriented Computing
No full textIn this contribution, the basic overview of the Object Oriented Programming and its usage in computation is given. Concepts of class, encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism are introduced. Some additional concepts like interface and Design Patterns are briefly discussed. Schematic examples in C++ are given. --
