The problem of how most effectively to predistribute keys is inherently combinatorial. We revisit some early combinatorial key predistribution shemes and discuss their limitations. We then explain why this p...

Some of its central principles—including continuity of personal care, and acting as a ‘‘gatekeeper’’ for all hospital referrals— are widely envied, and have provided a model for other primary care systems. Yet British general practice is no...

The English rise-fall-rise contour has played an important role in the development of theories of intonational meaning, but there have been only few experimental studies testing their predictions. This paper reports on production and perception experiments which investigate the idea that the RFR is an intonational tune that conveys that the current assertion is not a complete answer to the ques...
