operations for its analysis. We show that the analysis induced by E is very imprecise. Hence, in Section 5 we refine the domain E into the more precise domain ER for escape analysis. In Section 6, we discuss our prototype implementation and experimental results. Section 7 concludes the paper by highlighting the differences between previous proposals and our own approach. Section 8 contains the ...

Theoretical work suggests that both negative frequency-dependent payoffs and state-dependent payoffs can lead to individual variation in behavioural plasticity. We investigated the roles of both frequency- and state-dependence on the occurrence of individual variation in behavioural plasticity in a series of experiments where we manipulated perceived predation danger for red knots (Calidris can...

The ability to respond to and to learn about mechanosensory disturbance is widespread among animals. Using Drosophila larvae, we describe how the frequency of mechanosensory disturbance ('buzz') affects three aspects of behaviour: free locomotion, innate olfactory preference, and potency as a punishment. We report that (i) during 2-3 seconds after buzz onset the larvae slowed down and then turn...

Monitoring and measuring the behaviour and movement of aquatic animals in the wild is typically challenging, though micro-accelerometer (archival or telemetry) tags now provide the means to remotely identify and quantify behavioural states and rates such as resting, swimming and migrating, and to estimate activity and energy budgets. Most studies use low-frequency (≤32 Hz) accelerometer samplin...

Carbatrol (CBR) is a new multiple-unit, sustained-release dosage form of carbamazepine (CBZ) developed by Pharmavene. We present a multicenter, outpatient, randomized, double-blind parallel group study (No PI 101) carried out in two centers in Poland. CBR was evaluated in 47 patients with uncontrolled partial onset seizures. During the 28-day baseline period, patients were required to have at l...
