Salmonella enterica serovar 4,[5],12:i:- is a monophasic variant of S. Typhimurium incapable of expressing the second-phase flagellar antigen (fljAB operon), and it is recognized to be one of the most prevalent serovars causing human infections. A clonal lineage characterized by phage type DT193, PulseNet PFGE profile STYMXB.0131 and multidrug resistance to ampicillin, streptomycin, sulphonamid...

We present a novel approach to specification of dynamic systems. This approach, a stochastic extension of process algebra, facilitates quantitative, or performance, analysis, in addition to qualitative analysis. For unreliable systems this integrated approach encourages the investigation of the impact of functional characteristics on the performance of the system. Throughout the paper details o...

Scientific progress depends upon precise, reliable communication between scientists (Brown, 1983). This can be hindered if people use the same term to mean different things, or different terms to mean the same thing. In the extreme, this can lead to debates or disputes when in fact there is no disagreement, or the illusion of agreement when there is disagreement. Here, we are concerned with iss...
