Grounds for termination of common property

The Case against Termination on Psychiatric Grounds

Since the time of Hippocrates it has been the accepted tradition of the medical profession that the doctor's duty is to preserve, not to destroy, human life, even the life of the unborn child. This doctrine has been confirmed and strengthened throughout the Christian era until quite recent times. For the Catholic Church (and for many Christians outside its ranks), the prohibition is still absol...

Common Grounds, Questions and Relevance

Common Grounds as Multiple Information States

The main goal of this paper is to show how to derive a common ground In order to do this, first we need to know what a common ground should be like. In traditional dynamic semantics, a common ground is given as a single information state which is shared by the people in the context. In this paper I am going to show that a common ground must include more than one information state, and that this...

Parallel Computation Skeletons with Premature Termination Property

A parallel computation with early termination property is a special form of a parallel for loop. This paper devises a generic highlevel approach for such computation which is expressed as a scheme for algorithmic skeletons. We call this scheme map+reduce, in similarity with the map-reduce paradigm. The implementation is concise and relies heavily on laziness. Two case studies from computational...
