The lexical nature of syntactic ambiguity resolution
- Psychological Review
, 1994
"... Ambiguity resolution is a central problem in language comprehension. Lexical and syntactic ambiguities are standardly assumed to involve different types of knowledge representations and be resolved by different mechanisms. An alternative account is provided in which both types of ambiguity derive fr ..."

An information flow model for conflict and fission in small groups
- J. Anthropolog. Res
, 1977
"... Data from a voluntary association are used to construct a new formal model for a traditional anthropological problem, fission in small groups. The process leading to fission is viewed as an unequal flow of sentiments and information across the ties in a social network. This flow is unequal because i ..."

techniques will generate the same predictions. THE PROBLEM OF HOW and why fission takes place in small bounded groups has long been a central issue in social anthropology, even though the small groups studied have often been described under some other rubric, such as kinship. Fission in kinship groups has
Ivy: A Read/Write Peer-to-Peer File System
, 2002
"... Ivy is a multi-user read/write peer-to-peer file system. Ivy has no centralized or dedicated components, and it provides useful integrity properties without requiring users to fully trust either the underlying peer-to-peer storage system or the other users of the file system.

Achieving MAC Layer Fairness in Wireless Packet Networks
, 2000
"... Link-layer fairness models that have been proposed for wireline and packet cellular networks cannot be generalized for shared channel wireless networks because of the unique characteristics of the wireless channel, such as location-dependent contention, inherent conflict between optimizing channel u ..."

Eclipse of the Public Corporation
- In The Law of Mergers, Acquisitions, and Reorganizations
, 1991
"... The publicly held corporation has outlived its usefulness in many sectors of the economy. New organizations are emerging. Takeovers, leveraged buyouts, and other going-private transactions are manifestations of this change. A central source of waste in the public corporation is the conflict between ..."

The Basal Ganglia: A Vertebrate Solution To The Selection Problem?
, 1999
"... A selection problem arises whenever two or more competing systems seek simultaneous access to a restricted resource. Consideration of several selection architectures suggests there are significant advantages for systems which incorporate a central switching mechanism. We propose that the vertebra ..."

What is a Knowledge Representation?
, 1993
"... Although knowledge representation is one of the central and in some ways most familiar concepts in AI, the most fundamental question about it---What is it?---has rarely been answered directly. Numerous papers have lobbied for one or another variety of representation, other papers have argued for var ..."

The Central Banker as “Regulator of Conflict”
"... We make explicit the logical connection between two well-known models of mainstream neoclassical thought, namely the Solow growth model (1956) and the more recent macroeconomic model of the “New Consensus ” (here we examine the version elaborated by Taylor 2000). Taking the mathematical structure of ..."

, the central bank becomes a crucial “regulator ” of distributive conflict between the social classes and the full-employment equilibrium no longer constitutes an inescapable point of
Trust, emotion, sex, politics, and science: Surveying the risk-assessment battlefield
- Risk Analysis
, 1999
"... Risk management has become increasingly politicized and contentious. Polarized views, controversy, and conflict have become pervasive. Research has begun to provide a new perspective on this problem by demonstrating the complexity of the concept ‘‘risk’ ’ and the inadequacies of the traditional view ..."

A New Model for Packet Scheduling in Multihop Wireless Networks
, 2000
"... The goal of packet scheduling disciplines is to achieve fair and maximum allocation of channel bandwidth. However, these two criteria can potentially be in conflict in a generic topology multihop wireless network where a single logical channel is shared among multiple contending ows and spatial reus ..."
