Stochastic Mortality Models Fitting mortality rates and hence longevity risk quantification dynamically continues to be a challenge especially in the developing countries. Earlier development relied on one-factor model by Lee and Carter (1992). Lee and Carter model is widely applied since it has been found to provide fairly accurate estimations and population projections for both the academicians and practitioners. Later on, Renshaw and Haberman and Halzoupoiz(1996) and Renshaw and Heberma…

It was the biggest night of our school history. My Proctor High School varsity soccer team and I were on our way to Morrisville, New York, where we would be playing our regionals championship match. Heading into the championship game, we were all focused and let nothing distract us from our mental state of concentration.

LINEAR WAVE THEORY Linear wave theory can be defined as first-order, small amplitude gravity wave with a sinusoidal shape. This theory has been developed by Airy in 1845. It is easy to apply and give reasonable approximation of wave characteristic for a wide range of wave parameters. However, in some situations, waves are better described by higher order theories or also referred as finite-amplitude wave theories. Although there are limitations to its application, linear theory is still useful…

The energy that gets dissipated is proportionally equivalent to kTln2 joules of energy for one bit of information loss, where k=1.38 x 10-23 J/K is Boltzmann constant and T being the absolute temperature. C H Bennett [2], proposed that the joules of energy will not be dissipated from the system if the operations are performed using reversible logic and the system can reproduce the inputs from the observed outputs. If computations become…

Benchmark Assignment: Ethical Dilemmas Throughout life people will face ethical dilemmas. How a person maneuvers their way through ethical dilemmas is determined by their worldview.

The Sibling Autumn/Winter 2015 collection is what I found tantalising to the senses and…
