“All models are wrong but some are useful" [1]. We address the problem of identifying which diagnosis models are more useful than others. Models are critical to diagnostics inference, yet little work exists to be able to compare models. We define the role of models in diagnostics inference, propose metrics for models, and apply these metrics to a tank benchmark system. Given the many approaches...

Max Weber claimed that while Protestantism provided the proper ethos necessary to spur capitalism, Eastern religions did not. Japan’s economic success has belied his hypothesis, and while there have been various theories explaining its rise, perhaps Weber’s own claims regarding the connection between embeddedness and capitalism best explain Japan’s rise. Simply put, Japanese capitalism was born...

For the natural donor of photosynthetic photosystem II an operational model is postulated. This model combines a definite structural pattern of two types of electron donors (octahedral arrange­ ment of 6 secondary donors around a primary donor) with conformational state dependent electron transfer probability. It is shown that the model provides an explanation of many experimental data, especia...

Photosystem II-dependent cyclic photophosphorylation activity produced by addition of p-phenylenediamines to KCN-Hg-NH(2)OH-inhibited chloroplasts is the product of two separate reactions when a proton/electron donor is the catalyst. The activity observed with an electron donor as catalyst consists of a single reaction. One of the cyclic reactions, evoked by low (</=40 micromolar) concentration...
