...In the future, special AI computers called "Cyber Systems" have been used in racing to help racers improve their abilities and reduce accidents. One of them is a machine called "Asurada", a super-intelligent AI computer developed by Sugo Corporation, which is being targeted by Smith, who wants to use it as a military weapon. As the system is built for racing, Sugo puts Asurada into a car called GSX and delivers it to the Cyber Formula GPX's qualifying round in Fujioka, however, during the delivery, the machine is attacked. The story focuses on a young 14-year-old boy named Hayato Kazami, the son of the designer of the car, who activates Asurada GSX in order to escape from Smith's men. But because of the machine has locked Hayato's driver data, he has no choice but to become a racer for the Sugo Team. In the first qualifier, he races heatly with Naoki Shinjyo from Aoi and ends up in third place. In the second qualifying round, Hayato meets Johji Ohtomo, a racer from Albatross DDT and become good friends. During Hayato's training at night, he is attacked by Smith's men. In the race, Asurada's tire blows up, Hayato barely completes the race in third place. Hayato made it into the final 10 rounds of the Cyber GPX mainly with Asurada's ability and luck, which makes him overconfident. In the first race, he false-started and got a 60-second time penalty. Hayato pushed Asurada too far and was forced to retire. This made him realize that he has next to no skill at all. Hayato went...

...Abstract: Agile methods in recent years have emerged as a new paradigm in software development, which promises to address some of the problem areas of traditional approaches by freeing some of its constraints. In an attempt to produce an improvised process to designing and implementation and thereby to produce qualitative deliverables, several pioneering efforts have been suggested. This paper examines two such methodologies that promote agility: eXtreme Programming and SCRUM. The process, the values and principles of the XP and SCRUM are described in detail. Crucial feature differences between XP and SCRUM and the advantages and disadvantages of both methodologies are also discussed.

...June 02, 2014 MY Banking Sector SECTOR RESEARCH | Malaysia NEUTRAL Analyst Desmond Ch’ng, ACA (603) 2297 8680 (unchanged) Loan growth slows to 10% YoY Industry loan growth moderated to 10.0% YoY in Apr 2014 from 10.2% YoY in Mar 2014. All HH loan segments continued to register softer growth except residential property. Still NEUTRAL on the sector; BUYs are AMMB, HL Bank and HLFG. MPHB Capital is also a BUY with a TP of MYR2.42. desmond.chng@maybank-ib.com What’s New Industry loan growth was 10.0% YoY in Apr 2014, with household (HH) loans expanding at a more moderate 11.6% YoY in Apr 2014 vs 11.7% YoY in Mar 2014, while non-HH loan growth was a slower 7.9% YoY vs 8.3% YoY in Mar 2014. Positively, cumulative PDS issuances to date are 4.5% higher versus the same period last year. Also positive is the fact that industry fundamentals remain solid, with an all-time low gross NPL ratio of 1.8%, strong loan loss coverage at almost 105%, stable interest spreads and a stable loan/deposit ratio at 85%. What’s Our View Banks have become more selective in their approval of residential property loans but demand is likely to hold up due to: (i) expectations of higher property prices post GST; and (ii) prevailing negative real rates that will encourage investors to seek an inflation hedge. Whether this will prompt further property measures remains to be seen. Overall loan approval rates continue to soften while application trends have yet to see a meaningful...

Center for Undergraduate Studies, University of the Punjab 1 BS (4 Years) for Affiliated Colleges Code ENG‐101 Year 1 Subject Title Introduction to Literature‐I (History of English Literature‐I) Discipline English Cr. Hrs 3 Semester I Aims: One of the objectives of this course is to inform the readers about the influence of historical and socio-cultural events upon the production of literature. Although the scope of the course is quite expansive, the readers shall focus on early 14th to 19th century Romantic Movement. Histories of literature written by some British literary historians will be consulted to form some socio-cultural and political cross connections. In its broader spectrum, the course covers a reference to the multiple factors from economic theories to religious, philosophical and metaphysical debates that overlap in these literary works of diverse nature and time periods under multiple contexts. The reading of literature in this way i.e. within the sociocultural context will help the readers become aware of the fact that literary works are basically a referential product of the practice that goes back to continuous interdisciplinary interaction.
