ers are encouraged to read this document carefully. It provides a wealth of information that may prove invaluable as future research endeavors are planned. Because the report on the Web provides a comprehensive and eloquent summary of the workshop, here Palo Alto, California 94304 I will briefly mention just a few of the highlights. First, like me, you may not be aware of several existing NIH-I...

An ambient is a named cluster of processes and subambi-ents, which moves as a group. The untyped ambient calculus is a process calculus in which ambients model a variety of concepts such as network nodes, packets, channels, and software agents. In these models, some am-bients are intended to be mobile, some immobile; and some are intended to be ephemeral, some persistent. We describe type syste...

A method is described for handling the ambiguity and vagueness that is often found in quantifications the semantically complex relations between nominal and verbal constituents. In natural language certain aspects of quantification are often left open; it is argued that the analysis of quantification in a model-theoretic framework should use semantic representations in which this may also be do...

Humans born without a corpus callosum (CC) are often comparatively slow and clumsy on tasks requiring bilateral motor coordination. In this study, we attempted to identify correlates of CC agenesis in mice by examining an ecologically valid motor behavior: running-wheel performance. Mice with varying degrees of congenital CC deficits were tested on a running wheel apparatus for 7 consecutive da...

This paper identifies backward conjunction reductions in Dutch as a special instance of coordinated comment clauses. This approach is argued to be superior to the standard approaches within the traditional and generative framework, in that it not only refrains from theoretically suspect mechanisms as needed in the other analyses, but also gives a better explanation for the constituent behaviour...

Experimental results have been inconclusive about low temperature storage of recalcitrant seeds from temperate zone trees. Experiments were conducted on four species of oak chinkapin (Quercus muehlenbergii Engelm.), water (Quercus nigra L.), Shumard (Quercus shumardii Buckl.), and northern red (Quercus rubra L.). Storage temperatures were -1.5 DC and 3 DC, and lengths of storage were 1, 2, and ...

The term ‘lifelong’, as applied to education or learning, has been in circulation for more than a quarter of a century. It has played an important role in policy discussions, as well as in studies of the sociology and economics of education. The relationship of this term to the rapidly changing world of information and educational technologies, and to the various conceptions of interaction that...

The main advantage of this approach is the combination of a type checker and a proof tool. In the cases where the type checker is not able to check the consistency, the proof theory in the proof tool can be applied to prove the consist...
