HE parasexual cycle in fungi is initiated by the formation of a heterocaryon. Consequently, genetically dissimiliar nuclei are intermingled within a common cytoplasm in which nuclear “fusion” may occur. When genotypically different haploid nuclei are involved, a heterozygous diploid nucleus results. During the multiplication of such nuclei, mitotic crossing over or haploidization or both may oc...

We address the problem of positional indexing in the natural language domain. The positional inverted index contains the information of the word positions. Thus, it is able to recover the original text file, which implies that it is not necessary to store the original file. Our Positional Inverted Self-Index (PISI) stores the word position gaps encoded by variable byte code. Inverted lists of s...
