New Claims from Paul Sharp - But Has the Source of HIV-1 Really Been Located?

February 2006. In recent days there has been much press coverage about new claims by American, British and Belgian scientists that they have discovered the geographical source of AIDS. These researchers have apparently detected simian immunodeficiency viruses (SIVs) that are closely related to the AIDS pandemic virus, HIV-1, in the stools of wild chimpanzees living in the very south-eastern cor...

In this paper, we present a theory of synchronous data-ow languages. Our theory is supported by both some heuristic analysis of applications and some theoretical investigation of the data-ow paradigm. Our model covers both behavioural and operational aspects, and allows both synchronous and asynchronous styles of implementation for synchronous programs. This model served as a basis to establish...

In the following, S is a finite set but later we’ll deal with infinite sets. Think of S as the set of “outcomes” of some “experiment.” The outcomes are elementary indivisible results of the experiment; we’ll make this more precise through examples below. The set S must be nonempty. Let S 6= ∅ be a finite set. A function P which maps the subsets of S to real numbers will be called probability pr...

team looked at satellite measures of sea surface temperatures for the wintering grounds of 24 humpback whale populations around the world. In all cases, the animals were opting for waters between 24 and 25oC. The whales in this study would have had to continue north of the Equator to find water this warm. Rasmussen believes that a high enough water temperature is crucial for them to breed. “It’...
