In modern western society, because of the dominance of secular modernist ideas of rationalism and positivistic science, notions of spirituality have been at best marginalised, at worst excluded from our discourse on health care. Research into spirituality has been limited by modernist epistemological assumptions concerning 'objective' proof and measurements. This discussion seeks to help revers...

We consider Sundman and Poincaré transformations for the long-time numerical integration of Hamiltonian systems whose evolution occurs at different time scales. The transformed systems are numerically integrated using explicit symplectic methods. The schemes we consider are explicit symplectic methods with adaptive time steps and they generalise other methods from the literature, while exhibiti...

This paper contributes to the discussion on the issues related to the formal development of open distributed systems. The deficiencies of traditional formal notations in this setting are highlighted. We argue that there is no single formalism exhibiting all the features required. As a solution, we propose a multiformalism platform that involves three formalisms: UML, OUN and PVS-SL. We discuss ...
