The workshop was devoted to the discussion of recent progress in modern stochastic network theory and to the exploration of open mathematical challenging problems in the field. The workshop covered a wide range of mathematical topics; while being centered around applied probability, it also included a substantial amount of graph theory and (combinatorial) optimization. Mathematics Subject Class...

Ç NETWORK Science and Engineering (NSE) is a discipline of both rich intellectual heritage and visible practical implications. The topics explored in NSE traverse modeling/analysis and design/synthesis, covering topological as well as functional features of networks. The types of networks studied can be technological, informational, social, or biological. The impact of such study is particularl...

This note points out a terminological clash between Atanassov's “intuitionistic fuzzy sets” and what is currently understood as intuitionistic logic. They differ both by their motivations and their underlying mathematical structure. Furthermore, Atanassov's construct is isomorphic to interval-valued fuzzy sets and other similar notions, even if their interpretive settings and motivation are qui...

The beginnings of the modern otorhinolaryngology in Croatia started in the second half of the 19th century. Before that, there were only rare attempts of some doctors who published medical papers touching the frame of otorhinolaryngology. Mainly those were the PhD's disertations at Vienna, Budapest and Padua University. Among them there was dr Ivo Manola from Split, who in Padua in 1834 took a ...

The split-plot design arose from agricultural science with experimental units, also known as the subplots, nested within groups whole plots. It assigns different interventions at whole-plot and subplot levels, respectively, providing a convenient way to accommodate hard-to-change factors. By design, subplots same plot receive level of intervention, thereby induce group structure on final treatm...

The history of observation and research on fungal pathogens of invertebrates dates back thousands of years. In the era before microscopes, fungi were visible to the naked eye and observation of them helped give birth to invertebrate pathology as a modern Weld of study. Early observations of disease in useful insects, the honey bee and the silkworm, included documentation of mycoses. Both genera...

A monomoprhic monoclonal antibody (LA45 antibody) reactive with "a new activation-induced surface structure on human T lymphocytes" (LA45 antigen) that resembled free class I heavy chains has recently been described (Schnabl, E., H. Stockinger, O. Majdic, H. Gaugitsch, I.J.D. Lindley, D. Maurer, A. Hajek-Rosenmayr, and W. Knapp. 1990. J. Exp. Med. 171:1431). This antibody was used to clone a cl...
