DONALD M . MACKAy AND WARREN

The maximum rate at which a synaptic link could theoretically transmit information depends on the type of coding used. In a binary modulation system it depends chiefly on the relaxation time, and the limiting capacity equals the maximum attainable impulse rate. In a system using pulse-interval modulation, temporal precision may be a more important limiting factor. It is shown that in a number o...

And Donald

In 1983, Popper and Miller published in Nature a new argument against inductive probability. There followed, the next year, a discussion of the validity of the argument in the pages of the same journal involving Good, Jeffrey, and Levi as well as Popper and Miller themselves. This has led in turn to still further discussions of the argument. Those who are critical include Redhead (1985) and Dun...

h - embeddings Warren

Given a topological space X, a subspace Y of X is said to be Cembedded in X if every continuous real valued function on Y has a continuous extension to all of X. The notion of C-embedding is well understood and documented, as well as that of the more general notions of C∗-embedding and z-embedding. In this article we define a generalization of C-embedding and investigate some of its interesting...

In the ensuing years changes of vast dimension and historic impact have taken place. Few men are better qualified to assess the significance of the decisions of the Warren Court than Archibald Cox, student of law, teacher of law and, from 1961 ...
