6. Jewish Astronomy
   Astronomy of levi ben gerson, 12881344  
   http://www.stormpages.com/swadhwa/hofa/ja.html
   
   Extractions: Suggested Text The Israelitis' abstract monotheism and their centering of intellectual creativity on ethical issues were detrimental to a natural development of observational science, as did happen in Sumeria or Greece. However, the requirements of agriculture induced a cycle of holidays that were incorporated in time into Judaism and were given Ethnical or National religious significance. There thus developed a need for an understanding of the recurrence of seasons and for a synchronized calendar fitted to Solar, Lunar and Sidereal time. Several of the Mishnaic scholars were versed in Astronomy, such as the "Tannaim"

   http://www-gap.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/Mathematicians/Levi.html
   
   Extractions: Levi ben Gerson wrote Book of Numbers in 1321 dealing with arithmetical operations, including extraction of roots. Also, in 1342, he wrote On Sines, Chords and Arcs which examined trigonometry, in particular proving the sine theorem for plane triangles and giving 5 figure sine tables. One year later, at the request of the bishop of Meaux, he wrote The Harmony of Numbers which is a commentary on the first 5 books of Euclid He also invented Jacob's staff, an instrument to measure the angular distance between celestial objects. It is described as consisting ... of a staff of feet long and about one inch wide, with six or seven perforated tablets which could slide along the staff, each tablet being an integral fraction of the staff length to facilitate calculation, used to measure the distance between stars or planets, and the altitudes and diameters of the Sun, Moon and stars. Levi observed a solar eclipse in 1337. After he had observed this event he proposed a new theory of the sun which he proceeded to test by further observations.

This protocol guarantees privacy by means of symmetric encryption of data, peer authentication using asymmetric cryptography, and connection reliability via message integrity checks. Speaker: Paul Dosart, James Madison University Abstract: A modified Picard iteration technique is used to solve equations involved with torsional oscillations in suspension bridges. Oscillations are modeled for different situations, and the different methods of solving these equations are discussed. The Picard iteration technique's accuracy is evaluated in comparison with other traditional methods. Speaker: Melanie Hancock, St. Mary's College
