Is Roaming a Service Stuck in The Past?
And I'm not referring only to the challenges that cellular roaming service faces regarding a fragmented, not-homogeneous deployment of frequency bands globally for LTE, which per se, is reason enough to make the GSMA and other organizations of the industry to take action and try to address the problem through a series of definitions of the service facing 4G. No, I also refer to the lack of evolution in terms of provisioning, control of consume, targeted offerings, customized packages and last but not least, ease of use. On the other side, WiFi is moving forward, but at what pace? In order to become a truly disruptive force for roaming service, more energetic action engaging the user and the service providers, I don't see Passpoint certification scheme being widely deployed any time soon.

We're Experience Some Technical Difficulties
From the WiFi point of view, the roaming concept has two connotations; WLAN roaming first is understood as an equivalent of the handover event for cellular network; and second in a more similar way to the cellular ecosystem, as a service that enable a subscriber to use WiFi access outside the geographical coverage of a ESS (Extended Service Set, whit APs using the same SSID) in another ESS conserving its identity, privileges and quality profiles. Both connotations have their problematic ways, in order for the WLAN handover to work you have to consider that 802.11 connection control relies entirely on the device client, and there isn't such thing as an standard to build these algorithms that decide when to roam or not. Now, if we want to consider an inter ESS WiFi roaming service, lets first define two types of service providers; the distributed ESS Service Provider, which has several WiFi APs covering specific places distanced geographically under one brand (e.g. International airports), and uses a centralized AAA (Authorization, Accounting and Authentication) infrastructure through user/password portals. And the Telecom operator that has a WiFi deployed infrastructure, probably even some WLAN networks in several countries and consider these as a trusted accesses according to 3gpp definition (in untrusted access must be considered the use of another functional entity called TTG). Both providers face the problem of lack of transparency and ease of use, additionally the second faces a problem of compatibility between Diameter domains and poorly defined interfaces which will only add to the compatibility dilemma in the future, since equipment manufacturers offer solutions for the Telco now.
Cellular roaming has being a successful service for operators for long time, but LTE and the evolution of mobile technologies seems to be putting this service in a problematic position; as mentioned earlier the disparate bands of LTE deployment, along with the different modes technology implementation (TDD/FDD) jeopardize the establishment of roaming agreements between operators in different countries, but problems do not stop there, the future of roaming interconnection is supposed to be supported by a non-mature protocol; Diameter still in developing state, its adoption is not homogenous among operators either. Let's not forget voice which is supposed to be in the hands of IMS… and well, you know what happens with IMS.
From Humble Origins to a Successful Life in the Industry… So Far
The first GSM call was performed in 1991 and a year later the first international roaming agreement was celebrated between operators of Finland and UK, in a gradual way the cellular industry started introduce more services to the roaming offering, like GPRS, Roaming prepaid services and several value aggregated services leaning in the manipulation of SS7 signaling; all this possible through international SS7 signaling hubs and GRX networks carrying traffic among roaming partners. The thing is, customer usage habits are different now, regulation is hurting the revenues of roaming through cap imposition, users still cautious of the roaming bill shocks, and operators do nothing to offer us customers ways to embrace the service in a more confident manner, or even better to use what we like to use more; data services, how about flexible daily packages to use instant messaging, or differentiated video or VoIP applications on your device, where are these offerings?
In WLAN the first notion of roaming (as a cellular handover) was introduced in the legacy 802.11 standard as a layer 2 process known as re-association service, from there it has evolved to more complex definitions where the client decides whether to move the active connection from one AP to another AP of the same ESS, or to break and made a new connection according to degrading signal conditions. As service to allow users to move between WiFi "domains", it all started when the concept of EPC (Evolved Packet Core) included dedicated gateways for non 3GPP accesses (trusted and untrusted) to be integrated to the cellular core. The now extended use of EAP SIM standard and coming ANSDF efforts will move the technology towards a better usage experience transparency wise. All these are remarkable efforts that pave the way for the complete set of definitions that we all expect the Passpoint certification program to have, but only time will tell, and the current solutions will continue to form a blanket of patches.
Utopia for the Roaming Service:
The industry plans to throw some lifesavers for roaming service like:
- Control and visibility in the hands of the user. This approach is becoming interesting when considers the possibility of integrating free downloadable apps that a roaming user can install in any smartphone to track the volume of data consumption the time of the calls and the control of the billing account.
- New charging models: this can include a pocket of minutes depending of the country, an controlled amount of data for GPRS usage, or the more innovative a daily offering that can be paid as you need.
- Other: like packaging roaming voice service with the national plan, or increasing the analytic capabilities of the network to identify roaming patterns of use to come up with new commercial ideas.
Yes, we need these solutions, but we need them now, implementation is a must! While the industry debates what measure to take, a couple of months ago I encounter a really interesting idea, hardly to become practical in the near future, but interesting nonetheless. The ITU proposes the Ubiquitous Consumer Wireless World UCWW. Ok the name doesn't say much, but the idea is to build upon the NGN and LTE-SAE standardization efforts a new concept of service provider, and at the same time transforming the concept of the user, from Subscriber to Consumer. In very simple terms the new model limits current network service providers to focus their operations at the access network (AN) and core network entities in charge of the user traffic transport, they are called AN-SP under this scenario, and they can combine or comprehend several types of access technologies as heterogeneous as it can get, and all the AAA functions are offered by a third party provider, so an ecosystem of several 3P-AAA-SP interconnected internationally that share consumer profiles is proposed. The charging model is considered to be based on volume of transactions, the user does not "belong" to an operator and the current SIM is replaced by a CIM (Consumer Identity Module) with a global unique identity probably from a new separate class of IPv6 addresses, the CIM must be sufficiently flexible to accommodate various authentication schemes for the myriad of access networks the user could roam.
Under this perspective, is clear that the roaming service needs an urgent redefinition from the business point of view and a considerable effort from the technical point of view to take it out of its stuck state, the UCWW presents itself as an interesting model of service with an intention to implement a global pilot system, can be this an opportunity to revamp the roaming service? Honestly I wouldn't mind to change the chip in my phone when I travel if I have the security of a seamless experience and a service that I can control. How about you?

The first round is here and gone and what a ride! I had no idea what the Jets were going to do at #18 but we walked away with a blue-chip safety and we are set up nicely for the rest of the draft. Idzik did his BPA thing in Round 1, and I think we'll continue to see more of the same in the rest of the draft.
However, we've got more to be optimistic about than just defensive backfield help: the talent remaining at positions of need for the Jets is nothing short of incredible. The Jets entered this draft with serious needs at safety, WR, CB, and offensive line. All of those positions except for safety are exceptionally deep in this draft.
The safety position was very kind to the Jets. Despite only two safeties(Pryor and Clinton-Dix) receiving consensus first-round grades leading up to the draft, four were ultimately selected. After we got our pick of the litter at #18, there was a run on safeties in the latter part of the first round. This is beneficial because, obviously, every player selected between now and pick #49 that isn't a WR, CB, or O-lineman is leaving the talent pool even deeper at our positions of need.
Consider the following available players(to name just a few) :
Cyrus Kouandjio
Joel Bitonio
Xavier Su'a-Filo
Jace Amaro
Austin Sefarian-Jenkins
Marquise Lee
Jarvis Landry(a personal favorite)
Stanley Jean-Baptiste
Every one of these guys has the potential to become red-chip starters in the NFL, and you can bet that at least one will slip to the New York Football Jets on day 2. Color me excited for the rest of this draft.

Like Chesterton, and other orthodox Christian writers who substituted faith for artistic rigour [Tolkien] sees the petit bourgeoisie, the honest artisans and peasants, as the bulwark against Chaos. These people are always sentimentalized in such fiction because traditionally, they are always the last to complain about any deficiencies in the social status quo ... High Tory Anglican beliefs permeate the book as thoroughly as they do the books of Charles Williams and C. S. Lewis, who, consciously or unconsciously, promoted their orthodox Toryism in everything they wrote.posted by meehawl at 8:32 AM on July 31, 2005
"There is a well known tendency, when genre writers get successful, for them to turn on their fan base and attack their genre in order to appear more mainstream. Genre fans, and other genre writers, get pissed off at this, because they see successful writers as a good way of convincing non-fans that the genre trancends its steriotypes. Rowling is a successful fantasy writer, and is bringing a new respectibility to fantasy writers in general. So when she openly attacks, or appears to attack, her genre, it behoves the second most successful fantasy writer alive, a man who refuses to abandon his genre herratage and fanbase, to call her out."posted by jb at 9:43 AM on July 31, 2005

The ski derives a lot of its float from a bit of tip rocker, which also keeps any unwanted tip hooking out of the equation. Testers enjoyed the ski most when off piste, and many felt it'd be a great skinning option. "Great touring ski for all conditions … from midwinter pow to springtime corn," said another tester.

Great concept and the mud and snow claws work really…
Source: bought it new
Price Paid: C$ 125
Great concept and the mud and snow claws work really well, but there is a major flaw. The inner sole is killing this shoe. If it gets wet (which it will in mud and snow) and you're pushing hard on the downhill sections you will find it slips all the way to the front of the shoe - Yes Ouch ... and then Rrrrr because you have to stop and take it off to flatten it out.
- Great grip up hill.
- Inner sole gets wet and bunches at the front of shoe.
I have run four 250km desert events and many 50/21 North Face and Dirty Feet races and the sole I assure you is not fit for purpose when wet and on the down hill sections.

"I selected the designer review to customize these gift tags into personal labels for my son's notebooks and folders for school. My request to move the "with love" was met so that I could just have my son's name and his school + year. There's a lot you can do with these labels, so I would definitely suggest the designer review if you had something different in mind but were limited during personalization."
"Looks exactly at the picture. Very nice quality paper and picture. Delivered just a few days after I ordered it! Will try the other products too!"
"I was able to personalize these gift tags w/ the full date of the shower and then used them as sticker's to make keepsake book marks for my sister's guests! (we did a book-themed party since we didn't know the baby's gender of the baby!) Everyone loved them. We also used the stickers as cupcake toppers! We stuck them on different colored cardstock and cut them out, leaving just about an 1/8 inch edge and stuck them in our cupcakes - perfect complimentary shower decorations! Oh - we changed the graphic from the heart to the question-mark so it would match the invitations. So simple to make that request and Tiny Prints called and sent proofs showing me what it would look like both ways. So professional and courteous. I will definitely order from them again!"
"The colors were an exact match with the colors for the theme. I used them for tags on baby shower favor bags. Not much customization could be done, but it was great the way it already was!"
"we used these to make gift bags for a party favor and they came out wonderfully... last year i ordered them to put on home made poppers... it is such a finishing touch!"

In a statement on Monday, the company said it would invest £1 billion towards the development of nine wells in Harris and Barra fields. It added that the fields could contain recoverable oil reserves of over 45 million barrels.
Marcus Richards, chief executive of Dana Petroleum, said, "This undertaking is at the heart of our growth strategy. Unlocking the potential of these new fields is a significant milestone as we aim to double our production to 100,000 barrels a day by 2016."
Richards said the investment was made possible by UK Chancellor George Osborne's move this year to "support" oil and gas companies operating in the North Sea. Dana Petroleum expects production to commence in 2015.
A spokesperson for the UK Treasury said, "The North Sea is a vital national asset, with oil and gas production supporting a third of a million jobs. That is why this Government has announced a range of tax measures expected to generate billions of new investment and create jobs. Dana Petroleum's announcement is a further endorsement of that strategy."

I appreciate your feedback - so although this weekly communication will explain what we do every week in our class in my words, this is your forum as well. If you have ideas or suggestions, feel free to comment on these posts every week. You are the reason we are here and you matter the most!
What's New?
We've added some new technology over the summer:
If you have an idea for a project that we could learn from, please comment below and share it. This blog belongs to all of us and many great ideas can come from all of us. I'm looking forward to a great year and amazing things that each one of you will be creating.
Final Project 2014
For this project you are required to create a brand logo for our program as a finished design. Below are the specifications:
Create three thumbnail designs and a mockup of how the design will be placed on the shirt.
The design must include the following:
· Commercial & Graphic Art
· TCHS Pickering
· Must be related to our field in some manner
The design can be created using Illustrator or Photoshop. If working in Photoshop, the resolution of your files must be at least 300 ppi. The finished design should be able to be used on uniforms and you are limited to the use of four colors in your design palette.
The following items need to be posted to your journal page by end of class on Thursday, June 12, 2014. This will give you both today and part of tomorrow to finish your design.
1. Scans of your thumbnails
2. Mock up of design on T-shirt photo
3. Finished jpg of your final designs.

Fabric Workshop & Museum Field Trip
Our class had the opportunity to see a much larger scale operation today and our symbol project transformed again. It was a great experience and everyone represented our school well. I can't wait to see our students' finished panels (below this post) put together into a combined quilt. I'm proud to teach all of you and this project was a very strong finish to a great year. Our plan is to unveil the finished piece next September at a Back to School night. Below are some images from today.

The first prints are beginning to show up and they look really good. I'm impressed with the thought and care going into these. I'll add to this post as more are available.

Most of the crags face south and have lots of sun exposure.
Getting There
To find the Clem's Holler area, drive about 0.5 miles west out of Leavenworth. Park in a pullout on the south side of the road, across from a "Deer for 7 miles" sign on the north side. The approach trail begins about 100 yards up from the pullout on the north side of the road.

The Pyrenees Restaurants
Bodegas Almau
Bodegas Almau Review
The walls of this popular bodega are crammed with enticing bottles of wine and cava, while the bar is loaded with superlative anchovies, croquettes, and potato omelets. It's mainly standing room only here, so join the jostling crowds, shout out your drinks order, and grab whatever takes your fancy off the top of the bar. Popular choices include vermut con anchoas (a small plate of anchovies and a serving of house vermouth). There is also a pretty terrace overlooking the Mudéjar San Gil church.

Teen kidnapped at mall, taken to Hooksett, made to strip, set free in apparent vendetta
Don Little, 29, of 7 Piper St., Rochester, and Michael Renfrew, 24, of 87 Batchelder Road, Raymond, were charged with kidnapping, according to Manchester Police Sgt. Craig Rousseau.
The men allegedly took the 17-year-old boy to a wooded area in Hooksett, he said.
"They made him strip down and told him to basically start running," Rousseau said. "Apparently, this could be in retaliation for some offense the 17-year-old committed against one of their family members."
"Definitely not a random attack," Rousseau said.
When stopped later, Little and Renfrew were in a car that contained the victim's clothing, according to police.

The Plunge at Regent Palms
The Plunge at Regent Palms Review
This sunken restaurant by the pool is colorful, vibrant, and a great spot for people-watching. You can choose to sit in a long banquette with colorful pillows, at the bar, or on swim-up tables built right into the pool, so you can eat in your swimsuit. The casual menu has sandwiches, hamburgers, and pizza, and a very good chicken wrap with a creamy sauce; there are more upscale options for dinner. Be prepared to pay, though; even tea refills will cost you.

Strike up the band, it's Freshman #URmovein. Welcome Class of 2018! #rochester #universityofrochester #uofr
hangin out the passenger side of his best friend's ride trying to holla at me
(via insanelycool)
Two years ago, I was performing at The Punchline in San Francisco, and Robin came to the show with our mutual friend, Dan Spencer.
This particular batch of material was the first time I had touched upon my then still-fresh divorce wounds, and big chunks of it were pretty dark. The next day, I got a text from a number I didn't recognize. Whoever it was had obviously been to the show and knew my number, so I figured they would reveal themselves at some point and save me the embarrassment of asking who they were.
The Mystery Texter asked how I was REALLY doing. "You can't fool me. Some of those 'jokes' aren't 'jokes." By now I knew that whoever this was had been through what I was enduring, as no one else would know to ask, "What time of day is the hardest?"
He wanted to know how my kids were handling it, all the while assuring me that the storm, as bleak as it was, would one day pass and that I was not, as I was then convinced, a terrible father for visiting a broken home upon my children.
I am not rewriting this story in retrospect to make it dramatic. I did not know who I was texting with. Finally, my phone blipped, and I saw, in a little green square, "Okay, pal. You got my number. Call me. I've been there. You're going to be okay. - Robin."
That is what you call a human being.

text: 10 Top-Selling House Plans Under 2,000 Square FeetDiscover small homes that live big.By Boyce Thompson When we wrote about the top-ranked best sellers from our house plan subsidiary several months ago, one discriminating respondent, commenting on the relatively large size of these plans, said that given the state of home building today, it would have been more useful to review the best-selling small plans.RELATED: 8 Features of 2013's Top-Selling House PlansSo, here they are—10 of the best-selling house plans under 2,000 square feet. Once again, the selection is based on data provided by our house plan operation, the largest in the country, which provides the plans for dozens of house plan books along with the search engines BUILDER House Plans and ePlans.RELATED: 2013 Most Popular Floor Plan PackagesMost of these homes owe their best-seller status to a pleasing elevation that could fit into many neighborhoods, though usually not in the master planned communities in which large production builders toil. That's because usually house plans are chosen for use on scattered lots and must be more versatile. On the inside, you will see striking similarities among these plans, most notably the prevalence of great rooms. Living rooms get left on the cutting-room floor in house plans of this size. Also, in virtually every case, the great rooms connect to kitchens and even breakfast nooks to create the impression of a bigger house.Another common denominator? Bonus space. Most of the plans give buyers the option of using space over the garage as an attic or as finished space, but some do an ingenious job of integrating additional space into main living areas that can be converted into an extra bedroom, office, or media room. You'll also find that at least one room in each of these plans—in addition to the bonus room—can serve several functions if family circumstances change. A playroom can become a media room can become an office can become an in-law suite, which represents an important nod by plan designers to the circle of life at home.A surprising variety of garage configurations are present—everything from side loads to turn-ins to front-loads. And, though many architectural styles are represented, most of the homes go for the cozy charm of country or cottage looks that seem most at home in a small plan.Boyce Thompson is editorial director of BUILDER magazine. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 Next Advertisement Keywords: SubjectPlans Porches Lots Cost-Effective Design Dining Room PersonRussell Moody Don Gardner Mark Mathis OrganizationHome Planners Atlanta Plan Source Alan Mascord Design Associates View more keywords SubjectPlans Porches Lots Cost-Effective Design Dining Room Living Room Outdoor Rooms Small ProjectsPersonRussell Moody Don Gardner Mark Mathis Marie-France Roger Alan MascordOrganizationHome Planners Atlanta Plan Source Alan Mascord Design Associates Drummond Designs House Plan Gallery Frank Betz Associates Donald A.

Evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins on Sunday asked how anyone could vote for a "massively gullible fool" like Mitt Romney who could not see that Mormonism's founder was a "fraud."
"Romney's prophet Joseph Smith a fraud," Dawkins said in an hours-long Twitter rant, quoting from the Book of Mormon and adding, "Romney falls for it."
"No matter how much you agree with Romney's economic policy, can you really vote for such a massively gullible fool?" the atheist asked. "He is a Mormon BISHOP!"
"Bible & Koran genuinely old, written in the language of their time. Book of Mormon written by 19thC charlatan. Romney too stupid to see it," he continued, snarking, "And it came to pass that the lot was cast for Mitt and Mitt did verily reign in the land and there was rejoicing in the corridors of Mammon."
According to The Daily Beast's Andrew Sullivan, Mormons differ from most Christians in that they see no conflict in serving God and mammon — or material wealth that many mainstream believers view as diminishing religion.
"Could you really vote for a man who thinks the Garden of Eden was in Missouri?" he asked again three hours after the tirade began.
In a comment on his website, Dawkins responded to the criticism that he had singled out Romney's Mormonism when President Barack Obama was also a religious man.
"There seems a good chance that Obama is an atheist," he wrote. "The fact that he professes Christianity means nothing. He's an elected American politician and if you fail to profess some kind of religion you are not an elected American politician. … Romney, on the other hand, seems almost certainly a true believer. He was a zealous Mormon bishop."
"Christianity, even fundamentalist Christianity, is substantially less ridiculous than Mormonism (and Obama, if he is Christian at all, is certainly not fundamentalist)," he explained. " The idea that Jesus visited America is preposterous, and the idea the Adam and Eve did too is even worse (it is at least arguable that Jesus existed). The traditional Mormon belief in the inferiority of black people (only lately renounced for reasons of political expediency) is as scientifically inaccurate as it is obnoxious.The great 'prophet' Brigham Young even prescribed the death penalty for inter-racial marriage."
Dawkins concluded: "No, in the best of all possible worlds we don't want a Christian President, but in the world of political expediency we are probably going to have to live with a President who at least pretends to be Christian. We most emphatically do NOT want a Mormon President, and there seems very little hope that Mitt Romney is only pretending to be Mormon."

I tried to find the root distritubion of a polynomial?
When p=1, q=3, the following command works.
p:=1; q:=3;unitcircle:=implicitplot(x^2+y^2 = 1, x = -1 .. 1, y = -1 .. 1, scaling = constrained);
animate(complexplot,[[solve(eq, u)],style = point,symbolsize=10,color="red"],frames=50,K=-1..1,background=unitcircle, scaling=constrained, trace=20 );
However, when I tried p=2, q=3, only one root was shown on the animation.
But "complexplot([solve(eq,u)],style=point)" showed 6 roots anyway.
I have no idea what was wrong.
I have a polynomial p in two variables x and y, and I want to extract all the coefficients of p. For example, let p:=x^3+2*x*y^2-2*y^2+x, and I want to obtain the coefficient vector [1,0,0,1,0,2,0,0,-2,0], where 1,0,0,1,0,2,0,0,-2,0 are respectively the coefficients of x^3, x^2, x^2*y,x,x*y,x*y^2,y^0,y,y^2,y^3. In general, let
p(x,y)=sum(sum(c_*{i, j}*x^(n-i)*y^j, j = 0 .. i), i = 0 .. n)
It is possible that some coefficients c_{i,j} are equal to 0. How to obtain the coefficient vector [c_{i,j},i=0..n,j=0..i] of p(x,y)?
Thanks a lot.
I want to extract all the coefficients of a polynomial. For example, let p:=x^5-8x^3+2, and the function coeffs(p) returns 1, -8, 2. In fact, I want to obtain 1, 0, -8, 0, 0, 2. Thanks to everyone.
Hi all
Assume that we have construct new orthogonal Hybrid function of block pulse and bernstein poly nomials as follow:
and assume that we want to approximate a function as follows:
how can we do this with maple????Indeed we want to optimize using this hybrid functions
note that the degree of bernstein polynomials is fix or should be fixed...and

Hi everyone,
I have a maple program that generates a polynomial g(y)=(80y^8 + 68y^6 + 12y^4 -4y^2 -1). This polynomial has two real roots (irrational roots), call them +/- y*. My code does a sequential calculation, and often sI am left with a higher order polynomial in y that has the form h(y)= p(y)*g(y), where p(y) is also a polynomial in y. This polynomial h(y)=p(y)*g(y) is not in factored form (i.e. it would look like expand(p(y)*g(y)). Is there a way to instruct maple to recoginize that +/-y* is also a root h(y)=p(y)*g(y)? So far I've tried things like applyrule([g(y*)=0],h(y*)), but nothing seems to work (I suspect because Maple cannot recgonize that g(y) is a factor of h(y)). I am not interested in computing this numerically. I am just trying to find a way to instruct Maple to recognize symbolically that h(y*) =0.
Thanks a million for anyone who has any idea.
f1 := expand((a1*x^2+b1*x+c1)^n);f2 := a1*x^2+b1*x+c1;

1. which family of polynomials do m2 belong to?
2. how to analyze m2?

if degree(f) = 2 then
f := f + lambda^3;
evalf(solve(f, lambda));
end if:
how to convert above f back to matrix form such as
m2 := Determinant(m-Matrix([[lambda,0,0],[0,lambda,0],[0,0,lambda]]));
after tested m2 can not be expressed in terms of shell like polynomial,
it seems that it is from symmetric polynomial and it is from a non-homogenous polynomial which homogenize with a lambda
if solve f for new eigenvalue,
can traditional eignvector method calculate new eigenvector for these new kind of eigenvalues method?
A*x = lambda*x
Greetings everyone. I tried to get the roots of this polynomial by using allvalues command. But I got the roots in indeces instead of the value of the roots.
what should i do?
Hi all,I would like to set equal to zero some monomials in a polynomial. In particular those monomials in which an unknown has a certain degree. For example for the polynomialpoly := x^2*y+x*y*z+x*zi would like to set equal to zero the monomials in which x has degree 1, that is x*y and x*z.Is there a way to do it?Thanks in advanceManuele
Hi All. Hope all is well.
Assume that we have partitioned [0,a], into N equidistant subintervals and in each subinterval we have M sets of polynomials of arbitrary form[say bij(t)](a.e Taylor series, or Bernstein series,…)
for Example with N=4, M=3 and by Taylor series we have:
now we want to approximate a function, asy f(t), in this interval with following form:
If we have:
(Tau is a constant number) then: How can we find L and Z matrices using maple? Is it any way? (or other softwares?)
I often use RegularChains and SolveTools package. SemiAlgebraic is extremelly useful to deal with polynomial equations. However, I need some similar to Mathematica's Resolve that allows me to eliminate some variables from the description of the set. Say we have some set decribed by: for all 0<x<1, p(x,z)> 0 where p is a polynomial in x and z. Is there any Maple command that allow us to remove x and give the set only n terms of z?
convert any polynomial to Divide(Mult(x, Plus(y+z)), x)
The equation
x^7+14*x^4+35*x^3+14*x^2+7*x+88 = 0
has the unique real root
x = (1+sqrt(2))^(1/7)+(1-sqrt(2))^(1/7)-(3+2*sqrt(2))^(1/7)-(3-2*sqrt(2))^(1/7).
Here is its verification:
Is it possible to find that in Maple? I unsuccessfully tried the solve command with the explicit option.
I have trouble in using the function factors. For example, I expect
factor(Pi*(t^2+1), {I});
to output
but instead the result is
This problem does not appear if Pi gets replaced by a general symbol:
factor(pi*(t^2+1), {I});
produces (as I expect it should)
The problem seems to be tied to symbols representing constants, as for example replacing Pi by Catalan also results in no factorization being performed. It further seems to be tied to specifying a splitting field, because
results in
Is this behaviour intended? Probably the reason is that the polynomial does not have algebraic coefficients (as it includes Pi). Indeed,
produces the error message
Error, (in factor) expecting a polynomial over an algebraic number field
But why does this error then not appear for the call factor(Pi*(t^2-1))? If this would assume complex coefficients, it should factor using I. Considering coefficients in an algebraic number field, also the original call factor(Pi*(t^2+1), {I}); should raise an error!?

The images coming from Crimea in Ukraine are frightening: armed troops amassed at various ports and military facilities.
But Alex Shortov and his girlfriend, Elena Papilina, say real life looks more like some warm weather snap shots of the pair in their home town of Simferopol, Ukraine.
They both have many friends and family living in the region.
"There is no violence going on the streets in Crimea. And situation is actually peaceful," said Shortov.
The Clearwater couple are very well aware tensions are high and people are nervous, but they say most of the population still go about their daily duties, despite an economy in shambles. They believe much of what people see on television is propaganda.
Alex Shortov says many draw conclusions, not knowing the facts, and that is leading to wrong ideas.
"Members of families turing against each other. Friends turning against each other. It's happening over there, and see same things happens here," he said.
Shortov makes it very clear he is not taking any sides. He wants the Crimean people to decide if they want to be part of Russia.
"There's only one way to find out. And that would be a democratic vote," he said.
Elena Papilina has this plea.
"I want to ask world, like America, Europe and Russia, let people in Crimea decide their own , make their own decision," she said.
Contrary to some reports, Shortov claims the Russian presence in Crimea stopped extremists from threatening violence.
