The fields of ethnobiology and language documentation have much to offer each other, but for the moment, there are few signs of engagement between practitioners of the two disciplines. In this paper, I argue that projects that seek to document endangered languages can benefit by focusing on the semantic domain of traditional biological and ecological knowledge (TEK), and by engaging in collabor...

A simple tool called PD system is described and offered for general use that allows one to integrate programs and their documentation in ASCII files. Such a program with documentation file (PD file) consists of alternating documentation and program sections. PD files can be compiled directly; for a compiler, documentation sections are just commentaries to be ignored. On the other hand, the PD s...

The topic of this chapter is the relationship between data and language documentation. Unlike many fields of study, concerns regarding data collection and manipulation play a central role in our understanding of, and theorizing about, language documentation. The field to a large extent, in fact, owes its existence to a shift in focus in the goals of linguistic field work from concerns regarding...

Process documentation research (PDR) is a tool to help development organisations learn from their experiences. It is an open-ended, inductive process that explores the interface between an organisation and the people it works with. PDR takes a dynamic view of project implementation and helps to make projects respond to contextspecific requirements. It is especially relevant for those organisati...

The Museum Documentation Centre MDC of Zagreb was founded in 1955, and by widening the scope of its programs and activities has grown to be a modem information, documentation and communication (INDOK) Centre for the museum sector in Croatia. Its initial purpose and the basis of its activities is collecting documentation on museums, keeping records on their activities, forwarding and promoting m...

l Precise control over the electronic properties of the carbon nanotubes is key to their practical application in plastic electronics. In the present work, we have extended carbon nanotube functionalization via a 2-2 cycloaddition to electron withdrawing non-fluorinated olefins as well. Our results show that this is a fairly general approach, independent of specifics of the adderid, to converti...

This documentation describes the PCC(FD) library v.0. that can be downloaded from http://www.irisa.fr/lande/petit/index.en.html. The library has been built upon SICStus 3.11.0 [2].

ns c is LBNL’s Network Simulator [11]. The simulator is written in C++; it uses OTcl as a command and configuration interface. ns v2 has three substantial changes from ns v1: (1) the more complex objects in ns v1 have been decomposed into simpler components for greater flexibility and composability; (2) the configuration interface is now OTcl, an object oriented version of Tcl; and (3) the inte...

OBJECTIVES The documentation of the nursing process is an important but often neglected part of clinical documentation. Paper-based systems have been introduced to support nursing process documentation. Frequently, however, problems such as low quality of documentation are reported. It is unclear whether computer-based documentation systems can reduce these problems and which factors influence ...
