Lines With Many Points On Both Sides

Let G be a finite set of points in the plane. A line M is a (k, k)-line, if M is determined by G, and there are at least k points of G in each of the two open half-planes bounded by M . Let f(k, k) denote the maximum size of a set G in the plane, which is not contained in a line and does not determine a (k, k)-line. In this paper we improve previous results of Jaakov Kupitz (f(k, k) ≤ 3k), Noga...

The Many Sides of Human Resource Information Systems

The history of human resource information systems stretches to the 1960s, when human resource data were separated from payroll systems.

The wages of CIN

Aneuploidy and chromosome instability (CIN) are hallmarks of the majority of solid tumors, but the relationship between them is not well understood. In this issue, Thompson and Compton (Thompson, S.L., and D.A. Compton. 2008. Examining the link between chromosomal instability and aneuploidy in human cells. J. Cell. Biol. 180:665-672) investigate the mechanism of CIN in cancer cells and find tha...
