Toward Resources and Processes Sustainability: Part II

Toward a Global Infrastructure for the Sustainability of Language Resources

This paper describes work the Open Language Archives Community (OLAC) is doing to contribute to a global infrastructure for the sustainability of language resources. After offering a definition of language resource, it addresses the issue of what makes language resources sustainable by defining six necessary and sufficient conditions for their sustained use, then discusses what it takes to make...

Lévy processes and continuous-state branching processes: part II

In this section we discuss a simple feature of all Lévy processes which follows as a direct consequence of stationary independent increments. That is, when the path of a Lévy process over a finite time horizon is time reversed (in an appropriate sense) the new path is equal in law to the process reflected about the origin. This property will prove to be of crucial importance in a number of fluc...

Prioritised Dynamic Communicating Processes: Part II

This paper illustrates the work presented in ‘Part I’, giving additional examples of use of channel-types, extended rendezvous and s that lean towards real applications. Also presented are a number of other additions and extensions to the occam language that correct, tidy up or complete facilities that have long existed. These include fixing the bug, allowing an unconditional guard as the last ...
