As a result, A computer program is a set of electronic controlling and setting up new tasks were very instructions executed from within the computer’s challenging and time-consuming. As the years have memory by the computer's central processing unit. Its gone by, a brilliant scientist came up with a genius idea purpose is to control the functionalities of the in the late 1940s, he thought that he could automate the computer allowing it to perform various tasks. programming tasks in a computer by using encoded Basically, a computer program is written by humans instructions stored in computer’s memory and using a programming language. A programming executed sequentially to perform certain operations. language is the set of grammatical rules and John von Neumann called his breakthrough vocabulary that governs the correct writing of a “Stored-Program” [3]. The stored-program concept computer program. In practice, the majority of the means that instructions that make up the software are existing programming languages are written in stored electronically in binary format in the computer's English-speaking countries and thus they all use the memory, rather than being manually configured by English language to express their syntax and humans using wires and knobs from outside the vocabulary. However, many other programming computer. The idea was further developed to languages were written in non-English languages, for incorporate both data and instructions in the same instance, the Chinese BASIC, the Chinese Python, the memory, a model that is known as the Von Neumann Russian Rapira, and the Arabic Loughaty. This paper Architecture [4]. discusses the design and implementation of a new Fundamentally, a computer program as we know it programming language, called Phoenix. It is a today is a set of electronic instructions executed from General-Purpose, High-Level, Imperative, within the computer’s memory by the computer central Object-Oriented, and Compiled Arabic programming processing unit CPU. The purpose of a computer language that uses the Arabic language as syntax and program is to control the functionalities of the vocabulary. The core of Phoenix is a compiler system computer allowing it to perform miscellaneous tasks made up of six components, they are the Preprocessor, including mathematical computations, scientific the scanner, the parser, the semantic analyzer, the operations, accounting, data management, gaming, code generator, and the linker. The experiments text editing, audio, video, and image archiving, and conducted have illustrated the several powerful Internet. Basically, a computer program is written by a features of the Phoenix language including functions, human using a programming language. A while-loop, and arithmetic operations. As future work, programming language is the set of grammatical rules more advanced features are to be developed including and vocabulary that governs the correct writing and inheritance, polymorphism, file processing, graphical structure of a computer program or code [5]. A trivial user interface, and networking. property of a programming language is the human language it uses to express its syntax and vocabulary.

For instance, ALGOL 68 was in that some stayed on papers, others are not turning extended to support several natural languages other complete, while others are not compiled. Furthermore, than English such as Russian, German, French, and some of these languages are not general-purpose and Japanese [6]. In the early 1970s, Chinese lack many elementary programming features. Also programming languages were introduced to make others are console-based missing graphical user learning programming easier for Chinese interface features and event handling. Finally, last but programmers. Some of these languages include not least, the majority of those languages are Chinese BASIC [7], Easy Programming Language non-distributable in that they don't generate standalone (EPL) [8], and ChinesePython [9]. In French, there executable files for Windows or for any other target also exist couple of programming languages whose operating system. syntax is written in the French language.

Likewise, LSE Phoenix is a General-Purpose, High-Level, (Language Symbolique d'Enseignement) is a French Imperative, Object-Oriented, Compiled, Arabic programming language similar to BASIC exhibiting computer programming language intended to write some advanced features such as functions, conditional computer programs in the Arabic language. Phoenix is statements, and local variables [11]. Furthermore, C# syntax-like language using modern programming hundreds of programming languages exist using features to improve the programming experience in the international languages though none of them has gone Arabic language. Phoenix is compiled in that it mainstream, such as Hindi Programming, a generates an object/machine code from source-code programming language using Hindi syntax [12], Mind prior to program execution.

    An Overview of the Medical Device Regulations in the Russian Federation

    International Medical Device Consultants Since 1997 AN OVERVIEW OF THE MEDICAL DEVICE REGULATIONS IN THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION Russia has a population of 149 million and is a potentially lucrative market for medical device companies. In 2007, the Russian market for medical devices and related supplies totalled US$1.8 billion. This puts the market among the top 20 in the world, although per capita spending remains very low compared to the European or US markets. The registration of medical devices and medical equipment in Russia is, however, challenging. Russia has made efforts to improve the process in the last few years but there are still many areas of ambiguity. In 2006, the government initiated a Priority National Programme in Public Health Service, which aims to improve Russian healthcare standards and a regulatory process that was bureaucratic and lacked clarity and transparency. Since the project’s implementation, numerous medical facilities have been upgraded. This plan is benefiting equipment manufacturers as around 80% of the market is supplied by imports. Germany, the USA and Japan were the leading suppliers in 2007, accounting for more than half of all imports. Perhaps most problematic for foreign manufacturers seeking device registration is that Russia still relies on a system of product testing as a tool for determining product safety and efficacy. As Russia has its own national standards, such testing is also required for products that already possess CE marking, US Food and Drug Administration 510(k) clearance or other national approvals. Even products that have been for sale on the US and European markets for many years require product testing to Russian standards as well.

    Chinese Readability Analysis and its Applications on the Internet LAU Tak Pang A Thesis Submitted in Partial Ful¯lment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Philosophy in Computer Science and Engineering °c The Chinese University of Hong Kong October 2006 The Chinese University of Hong Kong holds the copyright of this thesis. Any person(s) intending to use a part or whole of the materials in the thesis in a proposed publication must seek copyright release from the Dean of the Graduate School. Abstract of thesis entitled: Chinese Readability Analysis and its Applications on the In- ternet Submitted by LAU Tak Pang for the degree of Master of Philosophy at The Chinese University of Hong Kong in October 2006 Readability assessment is a method to estimate the di±culty of a piece of writing, and it is widely used in the educational ¯eld to assist instructors in preparing appropriate materials for their students. Unlike English, which has a long history of readability research, Chinese, one of the most important languages nowa- days, has not yet received much attention in similar research. In the ¯rst part of this thesis, we conduct an advanced Chinese Readability analysis. First, we analyze the potential factors af- fecting Chinese Readability in a systematic way, in which the factors are grouped at various levels. Second, given an input passage, various features of it based on these factors are ex- tracted using advanced Chinese text processing techniques. We then perform regression analysis using advanced machine learn- ing technique. We employ Support Vector Regression (SVR) as the modeling technique due to its superior performance in solving other regression problems.

    SLEEPING CARS Azerbaijan Railways (ADY), Azerbaijan

    SLEEPING CARS Azerbaijan Railways (ADY), Azerbaijan In June 2014, Azerbaijan Railways (ADY, Azerbaycan Demir Yollari) ordered 30 sleepers from Stadler. They are intended for inter- national operation on the line from Baku (Azerbaijan) via Tbilisi (Georgia) to Kars (Turkey) and on to Istanbul (Turkey), and designed for an service speed of 160 km/h. The route not only crosses international borders, it also involves break-of-gauge. In order for the trains to be able to travel both on the Russian broad gauge used in Azerbaijan and Georgia, and on standard gauge used in Turkey, the bogies developed by Stadler are fitted with variable gauge wheelsets. The 30 sleepers are split into five different carriage types. There are 18 second class sleepers with 32 beds in four-berth compartments, 3 first class cars with 16 beds in two-berth compartments, 3 first and second class carriages with 20 beds in two-berth compartments, and 3 second class carriages with a compartment for people with restricted mobility. This amounts to a total of 18 beds and a dining car with 28 seats. Each car has an emergency power unit that enables it to stay in operation up to 24 hours when the train line is not being fed by the locomotive. www.stadlerrail.com Stadler Rail Group Stadler Altenrhein AG Ernst-Stadler-Strasse 1 Industrie- und Gewerbepark CH-9565 Bussnang CH-9423 Altenrhein Phone +41 (0)71 626 21 20 Phone +41 (0)58 595 50 00 [email protected] [email protected] Technical features Vehicle data Technology – Car body made of extruded aluminium
