This paper explores the manifold relations among the spatial organization of tourism, the quality of tourism products in heritage cities, and the dynamics of the regional economies. The concept of “vicious circle” describes the self-feeding linkage between the emerging class of excursionist tourists in the later stages of a destination lifecycle, and the decline in a city’s attractiveness. Refe...

-Sesquiterpenoids, 7-hydroxy-3,4-dihydrocadalin and 7-hydroxycadalin, and flavonoids, quercetin, kaempferol and their glycosides, isolated from Heterotheca inuloides (Asteraceae), a Mexican medicinal plant known as "arnica", were evaluated as antioxidants. These compounds showed potent scavenging activity on diphenyl-p-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical. Microsomal lipid peroxidation induced by Fe(I...

Biological systems display a high degree of flexibility in problem solving. In this paper a model is presented, Distributed Adaptive Control III (DACIII), which is aimed at understanding these forms of behavior. DACIII is part of a larger modeling series directed at understanding how biological systems acquire, retain, and express knowledge of the world. This modeling series has its roots, on o...

In certain dynamical systems, the addition of noise can assist the detection of a signal and not degrade it as normally expected. This is possible via a phenomenon termed stochastic resonance (SR), where the response of a nonlinear system to a subthreshold periodic input signal is optimal for some non-zero value of noise intensity. We investigate the SR phenomenon in several circuits and system...
