Principles of Scientific Computing Sources of Error

Digital Encyclopedia of Scientific Results

This study describes a vision, how technology can help improving the efficiency in research. We propose a new clean-slate design, where more emphasis is given on the correctness and up-to-dateness of the scientific results, it is more open to new ideas and better utilize the research efforts worldwide by providing personalized interface for every researcher. The key idea is to reveal the struct...

Ceteris Paribus Laws (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy)

Laws of nature take center stage in philosophy of science. Laws are usually believed to stand in a tight conceptual relation to many important key concepts such as causation, explanation, confirmation, determinism, counterfactuals etc. Traditionally, philosophers of science have focused on physical laws, which were taken to be at least true, universal statements that support counterfactual clai...

the role of semantic and communicative translation on reading comprehension of scientific texts

the following null hypothesis was proposed: h : there is no significant difference between the use of semantically or communicatively translates scientific texts. to test the null hypothesis, a number of procedures were taken first, two passages were selected form soyrcebooks of food and nutrition industry and gardening deciplines. each, in turn, was following by a number of comprehension quest...

Determined theories and limit laws

We provide a new model theoretic technique for proving 0-1 and convergence laws. As an application, we obtain a new (slightly less computational) proof of convergence laws due to Spencer and Thoma for the probability functions: pn = ln(n) n + l·ln(ln(n)) n + c n .
