We offer a very simple model of how collective memory may form. Agents keep signalling within neighbourhoods, and depending on many support each signal, some signals "win" in that neighbourhood. By agents interacting between different 'influence' spreads sometimes, signal emerges. propose logic which we can reason about such emergence present preliminary technical results the logic.

A large body of research has documented the effect of seed priming ongermination, emergence and crop yield. In such research, seed priming has beenfound to have a positive, negative or no effect. Meta-analysis can help tosummarize and interpret a collection of experiments. The aim of this study was toconduct a meta-analysis to synthesize published data from studies addressing theeffect of seed ...

For Muslims, the tawatur of the Quran—the fact that it has been massively and consecutively transmitted from generation to generation since the time of the Prophet—is among the most important proofs which shows that the Qur’an we have today is the same scripture that was revealed to the Prophet. However, this proof has been neglected in the studies of Western scholars on the topic of t...

This article revisits aspects of Thermodynamics’ history by applying the Cartesian conception a machine to Sadi Carnot’s work. By defining mechanically geometric curves, Descartes placed mechanical science at centre geometry and natural philosophy. With this, autonomous - product this starts correspond an operational definition with power understand generate new ideas in addition general explan...

background: to explore the oral absorption of scorpion venom an elisa were designed in this study. scorpions and their venom were been used for centuries as medical treatments in traditional medicine. the oral administration of drug referred as the convenient way, as there was not any publication about gastro-intestinal absorption of scorpion venom; this experiment checked oral absorption of me...

The history of anthropology has tended towards two extremes in its analyses of the works of Franz Boas: aggrandizement or underestimation. This disparity can be explained by the author's liminal relationship with two research approaches in anthropology: universalist theories (evolutionism, difussionism, racialism, etc.) and culturalist theories, prevalent between the late nineteenth and early t...

Emergence, a concept that first appeared in philosophy, has been widely explored in the domain of complex systems and is sometimes considered to be the key ingredient that makes “complex systems” “complex”. Our goal in this paper is to give a broad survey of emergence definitions, to extract a shared definition structure and to discuss some of the remaining issues. We do not know of any compara...

To study interferential effect of lamb's-quarters (Chenopodium album L.) on marigold (Calendula officinalis) yield and lamb's-quarters seed production two factorial field experiments were conducted in Tabriz, Iran, during 2010-2011. Treatments were densities of lamb's-quarters (0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 plants per meter row) and relative times of its emergence (0, 10, 20, 30 and 40 days after marigold e...
