This paper is part of a wider study to explain the historical spread and changing epidemiological patterns of kuru by analysing factors that affect the transmission of kuru. Part of the study has been to look at the mortuary feasts that were the means of transmission of the kuru agent. This paper shows the complexity of Fore eschatology, and the variations and contradictions of human behaviour ...

We present the Hyper system that implements a new approach to knowledge compilation, where function-free rst-order acyclic Horn theories are transformed to propositional logic. The compilation method integrates techniques from deductive databases (relevance reasoning) and theory transformation via unfold/fold transformations, to obtain a compact propositional representation. The transformed the...

the main attempt of this article is extension the method so that it generallywould be able to consider the classical solution of the systems and moreover,produces the optimal trajectory and control directly at the same time. there-fore we consider a control system governed by a bone marrow cancer equation.next, by extending the underlying space, the existence of the solution is con-sidered and ...

as a rule, crimes are unforgivable. there fore, forgiveness has virtually no effect on criminal liability. it can only lead to a reduction in punishment . for crimes that are unforgivable, forgiveness can become perplexing and confuse legal authorities. the present paper attempts to discuss the complex dimensions of this issue including forgivable and unforgivable crimes, the court's respo...

T effectively combat invading pathogens, immune cells must rapidly switch from roughly spherical resting cells to polarized migratory ones, which then move in a directed fashion to the site of infection. The dramatic metamorphosis of leukocytes into polarized cells and their subsequent migration are two of the most fascinating phenomena in cell biology. Polarization and migration require the sp...
