Prolog: Hanjie Puzzle Solver Lu´ıs Cleto and Jo˜ao Marinheiro FEUP-PLOG‚ Turma 3MIEIC05‚ Group 23 {ei11077‚ei11129}@fe.up.pt http://www.fe.up.pt Abstract. The purpose of this project was to use constraint logic programming in Prolog to implement a solver for the 2D puzzle‚ Hanjie. For this purpose we used the clp(FD) library provided by SICStus Prolog 4.2.3‚ specifically the sum/3 and automaton/3 combinatorial constraints. The program we developed is able to solve puzzles with dimensions

blend appears to mean the blending of different personalities and temperance to form a unique blend. After personally assessing my behavioral blend based on my personality and through the guidance given by Carbonell in the text How to Solve the People Puzzle: Understanding Personality Patterns (2008)‚ I found out that I have an S/C behavior blend. This means that I am both people-oriented and task-oriented‚ with my primary focus placed on individuals rather than crowds. This also means that my basic motivators

Transpiration Abstract This lab demonstrates how different environments effect the rate of transpiration in plants. A potometer is set up and placed in four different environments: one simply at room temperature (the control)‚ one with a fan pointing toward it creating a gentle breeze‚ on with a floodlight on it and a beaker felled with water as a heat sink‚ and one where the leaves are misted then covered with a transparent plastic bag. It is imperative that the tubing doesn ’t have any bubbles

Norway is the world’s second largest natural gas exporter. However‚ the project has been repeatedly delayed due largely to the immense technical and cost challenges. Reportedly‚ under current consideration is a switch to all liquefied natural gas (LNG) production to improve its economic feasibility‚ as well as a change of partners. A new agreement is now expected in autumn 2012 following the expiration of the original partners’ agreement in June. Most of it was transported to Europe via its extensive

Genetically Modified Plants and Animals Why should we know about the genetic modification of plants and animals? In this world today we are seeing different labels on our foods but does anyone even really know what they mean? For example what is the difference between a regular tomato and an organic tomato? We should know what foods we are consuming and how they affect our bodies. I believe that more regulations should be put into place by the Food and Drug Administration so that we are better

Viroids are plant pathogens that consist of a short stretch (a few hundred nucleobases) of highly complementary‚ circular‚ single-stranded RNA without the protein coat that is typical for viruses.[1] The smallest discovered is a 220 nucleobase scRNA (small cytoplasmic RNA) associated with the rice yellow mottle sobemovirus (RYMV).[2] In comparison‚ the genome of the smallest known viruses capable of causing an infection by themselves are around 2kilobases in size. The human pathogen hepatitis D is

Fukushima Power Plant Nuclear power plants now account for 14% of the world’s electricity supply [1]. These power plants differ only by the fuel used from oil coal or gas power plants. The concept is otherwise the same. Large nuclei become unstable when struck with a neutron‚ his causes it to split apart and also produce neutrons which are fire out. This then causes a chain reaction and other nuclei are split up. This splitting of nuclei is called nuclear fission and it provides heat which heats

a specific case of engine-generator. Diesel generating sets are used in places without connection to the power grid‚ as emergency power-supply if the grid fails‚ as well as for more complex applications such as peak-lopping‚ grid support and export to the power grid. Sizing of diesel generators is critical to avoid low-load or a shortage of power and is complicated by modern electronics‚ specifically non-linear loads.
