A fuzzification of the concept of functional dependency based on t-norms is presented. T-norms are equally used in the definition of the similarity relations in the domains and in the fuzziness degree assigned to functional dependencies. A sound and complete logic for this fuzzy functional dependencies is also introduced and, finally, its applicability to redundancy removing is shown.

Phenotypic studies continue to contribute to an understanding of the functions of cytoskeletal proteins. Many of these studies indicate some degree of functional redundancy within a family of cytoskeletal proteins. Some surprises have emerged, such as suggestions of unexpected relationships between the actin and microtubule cytoskeletons. Finally, phenotypic studies have provided evidence for a...

The measure of a monic polynomial is the product of the absolute value of the roots which lie outside and on the unit circle. We describe an algorithm, based on the root-squaring method of Graeffe, for finding all polynomials with integer coefficients whose measures and degrees are smaller than some previously given bounds. Using the algorithm, we find all such polynomials of degree at most 16 ...
