Given the fact that relational and object relational databases are the most widely used technology for storing data and that XML is the standard format used in electronic data interchange the process of con verting relational data to XML documents is one that occurs frequently The problem that we address in this paper is an important one related to this process If we convert a relation to an XM...

Mammals are surprisingly flexible in their rearing strategies (BOYCE, 1988). Few investigations have addressed the question which mechanisms produce this flexibility and it is even less clear which of the observed responses are adaptive answers to environmental challenges and which just unavoidable consequences of the animal's physiological and behavioral constraints. While we are still far fro...

Aspen has been declining in Jackson Hole for many years, a condition generally attributed to the fact that lightning fires have been aggressively suppressed since the early 1900s. It is also believed that burning will successfully regenerate aspen stands despite high elk numbers. To test this hypothesis, I evaluated 467 burned and 495 adjacent, unburned aspen stands at eight different locations...

ÐFunctional dependencies (FDs) and inclusion dependencies (INDs) are the most fundamental integrity constraints that arise in practice in relational databases. In this paper, we address the issue of normalization in the presence of FDs and INDs and, in particular, the semantic justification for Inclusion Dependency Normal Form (IDNF), a normal form which combines Boyce-Codd normal form with the...

Boyce and colleagues (1995) first put forward their theory of “Biological Sensitivity to Context” based on the findings of two prospective studies focusing on children’s propensity to develop respiratory illness. It was noted that young children who appeared more biologically “reactive” (e.g. high cardiovascular or immune reactivity to stressors) were most likely to develop asthma when reared i...

Polymer network models construct the constitutive relationships of a broader polymer from behavior single chain (e.g. viscoelastic response to applied forces, electromagnetic fields, etc.). Network have been used for multiscale phenomena in variety contexts such as rubber elasticity, soft multifunctional materials, biological and even curing polymers. For decades, myriad developed with differin...

Science, like evolution, is often remarkably convergent in its generativity of new ideas and its exploration of novel conceptual territory. Just as evolution has repeatedly converged upon common phenotypic solutions to problems of survival and reproduction among species of differing lineage (Morris, 2010), the history of scientific inquiry, and that of developmental science in particular, has a...
