In Borges's telling, the novel remained a riddle — chaotic, fragmentary, impenetrable — for more than a century, until a British Sinologist deciphered it: the book, he discovered, sought to explore every possible decision that its characters could make, every narrative bifurcation, every parallel time line.
Umm exactly when did Mr Bishop step out of the time machine he was in that had transported him to this parallel time line America that was tolerant?
Mike Leigh's Career Girls moved between two parallel time-lines, one in the 1980s, the other in the late 1990s, which facilitated some acerbic commentary on how Britain had changed in the interim.
The notion of parallel universes or branching time-lines is not new in science fiction, but only in the last few years have theoretical physicists, in an effort to account for some of the bizarre findings of quantum mechanics, begun speculating about similar hypotheses.
Based on it, we propose the generalized demodulation with tunable E-Factor (GDTEF), which can map the trajectory of time-varying frequency to a line parallel to time axis with the frequency coordinate E-Factor in the time-frequency domain, and further exploit its merit to bearing fault detection.
It's only a matter of time before the parallel story lines intersect so that the mules get mixed up with the Englishman.
For this purpose, in this paper, the problem of balancing parallel assembly lines with stochastic task times (SPALBP) is introduced and characterised for the first time.
The participants were required to make a simple visual discrimination: to indicate, with no pressure on response time, which of two parallel, vertical lines of markedly different lengths was longer.
Parallel horizontal straight lines represent flight lines.
Parallel two-sided assembly lines, rather a new research area, allocate more flexible workers and reduce throughput time by incorporating the advantages of two-sided and parallel assembly lines.
