Ecology, mobility and labour: dynamic pastoral herd management in an uncertain world.

In this review, the author discusses how pastoralism, and its many constituent components, is increasingly being recognised as in tune with the changing political and ecological nature of rangelands.

In addition, h...

In this paper, uncertain satisfiability is proposed to verify the consistency of a set of truth values for the formulas. Furthermore, for a set of satisfiable formulas with given truth values, the problem ...
