Factors shaping joint coordination during multijoint movements were studied using a one-handed ball-catching task. Typically developing (TD) boys between 9 and 12 yr of age, at which catching becomes consistently successful, and boys with developmental coordination disorder (DCD) of the same age participated in the study. The arm was initially stretched down. Catching was performed by flexing t...

This review paper discusses the Reo coordination language in the wider context of its research area. It explains the concept of coordination and argues its significance. Those concepts, models and languages that were of considerable importance in the preliminary research that lead up to the development of Reo, are explained, discussed and evaluated. In particular Linda, Manifold, and Reo itself...

nanoparticles of coordination polymer [co2(pydc)2(h2o)6]n.2n h2o [h2pydc = pyridine-2,5-dicarboxylic acid] have been synthesized by sonochemical method and characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, powder x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, dls particle size analysis and tga/dta. the structure of single crystalline coordination polymer developed from nanosized coo...

In the crystal structure of the title coordination polymer, {[Zn(2)(C(17)H(8)O(10))(C(3)H(7)NO)(2)]·C(3)H(7)NO}(n), the mol-ecular build-ing block (MBB), viz. {Zn(2)(CO(2))(4)(C(3)H(7)NO)(2)}, comprises two zinc atoms, each bridged by three carboxyl-ate groups. These two Zn atoms exhibit different coordination environments: a distorted coordination intermediate between trigonal-pyramidal, and s...

The stereochemistry of the actinide elements has recently undergone considerable development and a wide variety of coordination numbers and geometries have been observed. This structural versatility arises from the lack of strong crystal field effects for the 5f-electronic configurations as well as from the large ionic radii of these metal ions, which change markedly with oxidation number, ...

The fact that so many different kinds of coordination models and languages have been proposed suggests that no one single approach will be the best for all coordination problems. Different coordination styles exhibiting different properties may be more suitable for some problems than others. Like other architectural styles, coordination styles can be expressed in terms of components, connectors...
