In the past few years a large number of multidimensional point access methods, also called multiattribute index structures, has been suggested, all of them claiming good performance. Since no performance comparison of these structures under arbitrary (strongly correlated nonuniform, short "ugly") data distributions and under various types of queries has been performed, database researchers and ...

A long time ago now (maybe 1988?), Gerald (Gazdar) and I supervised Adam’s DPhil at the University of Sussex. Adam was my age, give or take a year, having come to academia a little late, and was my first doctoral student. Adam’s topic was polysemy, and I’m not really sure that much supervision was actually required, though I recall fun exchanges trying to model the subtleties of word meaning us...

Analysing Friedel averages and differences.

Various practical applications of the average (A) and difference (D) of Friedel opposites are described. Techniques based on the resonant-scattering contribution to Friedel differences are applied to see whether a crystal is centrosymmetric or not, and to determine the point group of the crystal. For the validation of a structural study, plots of A(obs) against A(model), and D(obs) against D(mo...

An overview The picture that emerges when one looks at the global situation for funding in ecology and evolution is that, while all biological research is suffering, these fields are faring somewhat worse. Surprisingly, this is despite the fact that research in evolution and ecology will be vital if we are to stand a chance of solving the problem of increasing numbers of humans on a planet that...
