Ptomaphaminus granophilus n. sp. from Vietnam is described and illustrated. The special subterranean biotope of this species, deep interstices in a granitic blockfield, is emphasized.

The concepts of memetics and the development of meme media implementations have set the stage for knowledge media evolution by which externalized human knowledge is becoming subject to a process of growth which can be boosted by technological means. Computers acting in computer networks in co-operation with humans will constitute interactive knowledge media – another goal of Artificial Intellig...

Awareness of global environmental change gives some priority to the study of biodiversity and i ts maintenance (Blandin, 1986; Bridgewater & Walton, 1997). In the evaluation of biodiversity, invertebrates take an important place (New, 1995; Herrenschmidt, 1996; Cranston & Trueman, 1997), and spiders provide an interesting model to represent invertebrates. Numerous authors are aware of the quali...

China, like many other countries in the world, has declining biodiversity caused by urbanization. Urban parks are a patchwork of distinct biotopes and have significant conservation value for biodiversity. Biotope mapping is an essential tool urban conservation, ecological spatial planning ecosystem management, however there few studies on it China. This study explores practical scheme biotope c...

This paper makes a bridging between two rather new fields of research in IT, the Meme Media (MM) and the Enterprise Application Integration (EAI). It describes the main principles of an unique application extension which allows connections between different applications with mutual interactions. The interaction bases on selected Meme Media technologies and on Web techniques. Meme Media ideas ar...
