Sensation Seeking Scale
The Sensation Seeking Scale is one of the most common psychological instrument for measuring sensation seeking. It was created in 1964 by Marvin Zuckerman, at the University of Delaware.Zuckerman, Marvin, et al. "Development of a sensation-seeking scale." Journal of Consulting Psychology 28.6 (1964): 477. Zuckerman created the scale with the purpose of better understanding personality traits such as neuroticism, antisocial behavior, and psychopathy.Arnett, J. (1993). Sensation Seeking: A New Conceptualization And A New Scale. Personality and Individual Differences, 16(2), 289-296. Retrieved October 1, 2014, from http://www.jeffreyarnett.com/aiss1992article.pdf This has gone through a few iterations and is currently on its 1978 version: SSS-V. There are 4 different aspects (subscales), which are: Thrill and Adventure Seeking (TAS); Disinhibition (Dis); Experience Seeking (ES); and Boredom Susceptibility (BS). Each subscale contains 10 items, making a total of 40 items. Zuckerman has ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Shamir's Secret Sharing
Shamir's Secret Sharing (SSS) is an efficient secret sharing algorithm for distributing private information (the "secret") in such a way that no individual holds intelligible information about the secret. To achieve this, the secret is converted into parts (the "shares") from which the secret can be reassembled when a sufficient number of shares are combined but not otherwise. SSS has the unusual property of information theoretic security, meaning an adversary without enough shares cannot reconstruct the secret even with infinite time and computing capacity. A standard SSS specification for cryptocurrency wallets has been widely implemented. High-level explanation SSS is used to secure a secret in a distributed way, most often to secure other encryption keys. The secret is split into multiple shares, which individually do not give any information about the secret. To unlock a secret secured by SSS a minimum number of shares are needed, called the ''threshold''. No additional in ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Socialist Sunday School
Socialist Sunday Schools (SSS) were set up to replace or augment Christian Sunday Schools in the United Kingdom, and later the United States. They arose in response to the perceived inadequacy of orthodox Sunday schools as a training ground for the children of socialists and the need for an organised, systematic presentation of the socialist point of view to teach the ideals and principles of socialism to children and young people. In the US, a Sunday School movement linked to the German-American socialist movement emerged in New York and Chicago in the 1880s and again on a broader scale as part of the Modern School Movement during the first decade of the 20th century. An even larger network of American Socialist Sunday Schools, closely paralleling the British movement, was launched by members of the Socialist Party of America during the first two decades of the 20th century.

SSS Islands
The SSS islands (), locally also known as the Windward Islands ( or ), is a collective term for the three territories of the Dutch Caribbean (formerly the Netherlands Antilles) that are located within the Leeward Islands group of the Lesser Antilles. In order of population size, they are: Sint Maarten, Sint Eustatius and Saba (island), Saba. In some contexts, the term is also used to refer to the entire island of Saint Martin (island), Saint Martin (which also includes the Collectivity of Saint Martin), alongside Sint Eustatius and Saba. The SSS islands were Island territories of the Netherlands Antilles, island territories of the Netherlands Antilles, until Dissolution of the Netherlands Antilles, its dissolution in 2010. Since then, Sint Maarten is a Kingdom of the Netherlands#Constituent countries, constituent country of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, while Sint Eustatius and Saba are Caribbean Netherlands, special municipalities of the Netherlands.

SSS*
SSS* is a search algorithm, introduced by George Stockman in 1979, that conducts a state space search traversing a game tree in a best-first fashion similar to that of the A* search algorithm. SSS* is based on the notion of solution trees. Informally, a solution tree can be formed from any arbitrary game tree by pruning the number of branches at each MAX node to one. Such a tree represents a complete strategy for MAX, since it specifies exactly one MAX action for every possible sequence of moves made by the opponent. Given a game tree, SSS* searches through the space of partial solution trees, gradually analyzing larger and larger subtrees, eventually producing a single solution tree with the same root and Minimax value as the original game tree. SSS* never examines a node that alpha-beta pruning would prune, and may prune some branches that alpha-beta would not. Stockman speculated that SSS* may therefore be a better general algorithm than alpha-beta. However, Igor Roizen and ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
SSS Defence
Stumpp Schuele & Somappa Defence (SSS Defence) is an Indian company that deals in military small arms sectors. It is a subsidiary of Stumpp Schuele & Somappa Springs. Its current focus area is small arms, ammunition and accessories related to small arms. History In 2016, Stumpp Schuele & Somappa Springs, the biggest Indian manufacturer of springs, started deliberating on ways to diversify its business. This led to the creation of SSS Defence. This foray into the business of small arms and ammunition was primarily targeted onto the foreign markets located in Asia, apart from those in India. It became the first private Indian firm to have developed sniper rifles when it’s Viper and Saber rifles were released.

Super Scalable System
The Cray-3/SSS (Super Scalable System) was a pioneering massively parallel supercomputer project that bonded a two-processor Cray-3 to a new SIMD processing unit based entirely in the computer's main memory.http://www.secinfo.com/dsVQy.a1u4.htm CCC 10Q May 1995 It was later considered as an add-on for the Cray T90 series in the form of the T94/SSS, but there is no evidence this was ever built. Design The SSS project started after a Supercomputing Research Center (SRC) engineer, Ken Iobst, noticed a novel way to implement a parallel computer. Previous massively SIMD designs, like the Connection Machines, consisted of a large number of individual processing elements consisting of a simple processor and some local memory. Results that needed to be passed from element to element were passed along networking links at relatively slow speeds. This was a serious bottleneck in most parallel designs, which limited their use to certain roles where these interdependencies could be reduced. Iob ...

Serangoon Secondary School
Serangoon Secondary School (SSS), formerly known as Serangoon English School, is a government secondary school in Upper Serangoon View, Singapore. History Serangoon English School (1928-1967) SSS started as Serangoon English School in 1928, housed in a two-storey building in Simon Road. At that time, it had only seven classes with a head-mistress and seven teachers. It was the only government co-educational school in the Colony of Singapore then and also a feeder school to Raffles Institution. In 1937, the school added three standards, providing education up to Secondary Three in present-day terms. The students who successfully completed Standard Eight then went on to Raffles Institution and Raffles Girls' School respectively. With the formation of the first School Certificate class in 1949, the school became a full school offering education from Primary One to Cambridge School Certificate. In 1958, the school became a secondary school and seven years later, the first Pre-U ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
List Of MADLAX Characters
is a 26-episode anime television series that was produced in 2004 by the Bee Train animation studio. According to the composer of the series, Yuki Kajiura, the director Kōichi Mashimo created a list of brief descriptions of every recurring character for her to base their respective musical themes upon. She refers to this list as "Mashimo Menu" and commented that the director's descriptions provide deeper insight into the characters. Main characters Margaret Burton , born on 14 July 1992, is a clumsy, absent-minded 19-year-old girl who attends an elite college for aristocratic families' children in Nafrece. Her memories of her own life are limited to its last twelve years, the word "Madlax", and vague recollections of something important connected to an unusual "picture book" she possesses. Margaret is ultimately ''the'' central character of the story, as she is the person who has the ''Gift'', a mysterious ability to alter the reality. Twelve years ago, she and the person ...

Subsurface Scattering
Subsurface scattering (SSS), also known as subsurface light transport (SSLT), is a mechanism of light transport in which light that penetrates the surface of a translucent object is scattered by interacting with the material and exits the surface at a different point. The light will generally penetrate the surface and be reflected a number of times at irregular angles inside the material before passing back out of the material at a different angle than it would have had if it had been reflected ''directly'' off the surface. Subsurface scattering is important for realistic 3D computer graphics, being necessary for the rendering of materials such as marble, skin, leaves, wax and milk. If subsurface scattering is not implemented, the material may look unnatural, like plastic or metal. Rendering techniques To improve rendering efficiency, many real-time computer graphics algorithms only compute the reflectance at the *surface* of an object. In reality, many materials are slightly t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
