The TPP Is Dead, Long Live the TPP? A Response to Recent Commentaries

Distance Is Dead , Long Live Distance

For many educators, the phrase ‘from distance education to e-learning’ conjures up the view of an ‘evolutionary’ progression beginning with correspondence study and developed through more sophisticated technologies to its current identification with computers, the Internet, and the World Wide Web. For others, particularly those with little knowledge or experience of (and often equally little in...

KASLR is Dead: Long Live KASLR

Modern operating system kernels employ address space layout randomization (ASLR) to prevent control-flow hijacking attacks and code-injection attacks. While kernel security relies fundamentally on preventing access to address information, recent attacks have shown that the hardware directly leaks this information. Strictly splitting kernel space and user space has recently been proposed as a th...

Towards Dead Time Inclusion in Neuronal Modeling

A mathematical description of the refractoriness period in neuronal diffusion modeling is given and its moments are explicitly obtained in a form that is suitable for quantitative evaluations. Then, for the Wiener, Ornstein-Uhlenbeck and Feller neuronal models, an analysis of the features exhibited by the mean and variance of the first passage time and of refractoriness period is performed.

The study of behavior of nonhuman organisms is today, as it has been for a century, a vital and active area within psychology. Comparative psychology is, therefore, by definition, alive and well. The recent resurgence in interest in evolutionary and ecological approaches to the study of comparative psychology reflects developments in ethology, sociobiology, and behavioral ecology.
