Picking Battles: The Impact of Trust Assumptions on the Elaboration of Security Requirements
Assumptions made during analysis of the requirements for a system-to-be about the trustworthiness of its various components (including human components) can have a significant effect on the specifications derived from the system’s requirements. These trust assumptions can affect the scope of the analysis, derivation of security requirements, and in some cases how functionality is realized. This...
متن کاملMolecular battles between plant and pathogenic bacteria in the phyllosphere.
The phyllosphere, i.e., the aerial parts of the plant, provides one of the most important niches for microbial colonization. This niche supports the survival and, often, proliferation of microbes such as fungi and bacteria with diverse lifestyles including epiphytes, saprophytes, and pathogens. Although most microbes may complete the life cycle on the leaf surface, pathogens must enter the leaf...
متن کاملThe shift from plant–plant facilitation to competition under severe water deficit is spatially explicit
The stress-gradient hypothesis predicts a higher frequency of facilitative interactions as resource limitation increases. Under severe resource limitation, it has been suggested that facilitation may revert to competition, and identifying the presence as well as determining the magnitude of this shift is important for predicting the effect of climate change on biodiversity and plant community d...

Jean-Pierre Gattuso of CNRSUniversity Pierre and Marie Curie, who has researchers in the team said: “The oceans absorb about a quarter of human-made carbon dioxide. This has been limiting the amount of greenhouse gas in the atmosphere and mitigating climate change. However, the massive amounts absorbed — about...

But other reports were not satisfied with a mere 2,000 potential beneficiaries. New hope is offered to “millions affected by eye diseases” said the Independent. This was “hundreds of thousands” in the Los Angeles Times. But the LA Times also highligh...
