Detours by the blind mole-rat follow assessment of location and physical properties of underground obstacles
Orientation by an animal inhabiting an underground environment must be extremely efficient if it is to contend effectively with the high energetic costs of excavating soil for a tunnel system. We examined, in the field, the ability of a fossorial rodent, the blind mole-rat, Spalax ehrenbergi, to detour different types of obstacles blocking its tunnel and rejoin the disconnected tunnel section. ...
متن کاملDetours and Gromov hyperbolicity
The notion of Gromov hyperbolicity was introduced by Gromov in the setting of geometric group theory [G1], [G2], but has played an increasing role in analysis on general metric spaces [BHK], [BS], [BBo], [BBu], and extendability of Lipschitz mappings [L]. In this theory, it is often additionally assumed that the hyperbolic metric space is proper and geodesic (meaning that closed balls are compa...
متن کاملCORBA Benchmarking: A Course with Hidden Obstacles
Numerous projects have evaluated the performance of CORBA middleware over the past decade. Interestingly, many of the published results are either gathered or analyzed imprecisely. We point out common causes of such imprecision related to the gathering of timing information and the effects of warm-up, randomization, cross talk and delayed or hidden functionality, and demonstrate their impact on...
متن کاملThe Effects of Regulating Hidden Add-on Costs
We examine the welfare effects of price and disclosure regulation in a model where firms can shroud add-on costs, such as penalty fees for consumer financial products. Such regulation can increase or decrease welfare even when there are no direct costs. There are, however, strong complementarities between price controls and disclosure mandates: conditional on disclosure be ing mandated, price ...
متن کاملE-CoBROWSE: co-Navigating the Web with Chat-pointers and Add-ins – Problems and Promises
In this paper, we report on our experience in building ecoBrowse, an extensible Web co-navigation framework. Extensibility is realized through dynamic content transformation at the HTTP response/request stream level. The framework also provides an API (Application Programming Interface) that gives developers high-level support for creating groupware features. To illustrate the potential of e-co...
