“Since we are diurnal, colour-vision mammals, the photographs we chose tend to depict species that are brightly coloured”, they write. “As a result, the particular ledger of species we chose is biased in favour of those that warn potential predators to stay away, and their mimics.” But the authors point out that so little work has been done on these species that it is hard to know which are gen...

The number of households and businesses using HFC cable networks for Internet access is rapidly approaching 40 million in the United States. The cable industry has standardized on a single MAC and physical layer standard, the Data Over Cable System Interface Specification (DOCSIS). The emerging IEEE 802.16 broadband wireless access MAC protocol is based on DOCSIS. We have implemented a simulati...
