Some fundamental features of biomineralization

by R. J. P. Williams
"... Abstract: This contribution summarizes the considerations that are of major importance in inorganic mineral formation before we look at specific biological minerals. Some factors which have to be taken into account (other than those that are well-known from inorganic (abiological) precipitations) ar ..."

Abstract: This contribution summarizes the considerations that are of major importance in inorganic mineral formation before we look at specific biological minerals. Some factors which have to be taken into account (other than those that are well-known from inorganic (abiological) precipitations) are: the nature of the biological organic matrix; the restricted volume, outside or inside the cytoplasm, which can cause differences in impurity content (Mg); crystal morphology; and isotopic fractionation. Cases such as those of corals, foraminifera and coccoliths are taken as examples. Factors affecting mineralization Equilibria The formation of a mineral from a solution is under a number of different controlling factors (Crick 1986; Fraústo da Silva & Williams 1991). The simplest case we can consider is an equilibrium between a particular form of a mineral, say calcite, and the activities, not concentrations, of

Features of similarity.

by Amos Tversky - Psychological Review , 1977
"... Similarity plays a fundamental role in theories of knowledge and behavior. It serves as an organizing principle by which individuals classify objects, form concepts, and make generalizations. Indeed, the concept of similarity is ubiquitous in psychological theory. It underlies the accounts of stimu ..."

Cross-cultural evidence for the fundamental features of extraversion

by Richard E. Lucas, Ed Diener, Alexander Grob, Eunkook M. Suh, Liang Shao - JOURNAL OF PERSONALITY AND SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY , 2000
"... Psychologists have not determined the defining characteristics of extroversion. In four studies, the authors tested the hypothesis that extraversion facets are linked by reward sensitivity. According to this hypothesis, only facets that reflect reward sensitivity should load on a higher order extrav ..."

PCA-SIFT: A more distinctive representation for local image descriptors

by Yan Ke, Rahul Sukthankar , 2004
"... Stable local feature detection and representation is a fundamental component of many image registration and object recognition algorithms. Mikolajczyk and Schmid [14] recently evaluated a variety of approaches and identified the SIFT [11] algorithm as being the most resistant to common image deforma ..."

Image retrieval: Current techniques, promising directions and open issues

by Yong Rui, Thomas S. Huang - Journal of Visual Communication and Image Representation , 1999
"... This paper provides a comprehensive survey of the technical achievements in the research area of image retrieval, especially content-based image retrieval, an area that has been so active and prosperous in the past few years. The survey includes 100+ papers covering the research aspects of image fea ..."
Abstract - Cited by 507 (15 self) - Add to MetaCart
feature representation and extraction, multidimensional indexing, and system design, three of the fundamental bases of content-based image retrieval. Furthermore, based on the state-of-the-art technology available now and the demand from real-world applications, open research issues are identified

Proposed NIST Standard for Role-Based Access Control

by David F. Ferraiolo, Ravi Sandhu, Serban Gavrila, D. Richard Kuhn, Ramaswamy Chandramouli , 2001
"... In this article we propose a standard for role-based access control (RBAC). Although RBAC models have received broad support as a generalized approach to access control, and are well recognized for their many advantages in performing large-scale authorization management, no single authoritative def ..."
Abstract - Cited by 544 (13 self) - Add to MetaCart
fundamental and stable set of mechanisms that may be enhanced by developers in further meeting the needs of their customers. As such, this document does not attempt to standardize RBAC features beyond those that have achieved acceptance in the commercial marketplace and research community, but instead focuses

Logical foundations of object-oriented and frame-based languages

by Michael Kifer, Georg Lausen, James Wu - JOURNAL OF THE ACM , 1995
"... We propose a novel formalism, called Frame Logic (abbr., F-logic), that accounts in a clean and declarative fashion for most of the structural aspects of object-oriented and frame-based languages. These features include object identity, complex objects, inheritance, polymorphic types, query methods, ..."

Fast Algorithms for Mining Association Rules

by Rakesh Agrawal, Ramakrishnan Srikant , 1994
"... We consider the problem of discovering association rules between items in a large database of sales transactions. We present two new algorithms for solving this problem that are fundamentally different from the known algorithms. Empirical evaluation shows that these algorithms outperform the known a ..."

Axiomatic quantum field theory in curved spacetime

by Stefan Hollands, Robert M. Wald , 2008
"... The usual formulations of quantum field theory in Minkowski spacetime make crucial use of features—such as Poincare invariance and the existence of a preferred vacuum state—that are very special to Minkowski spacetime. In order to generalize the formulation of quantum field theory to arbitrary globa ..."

The capacity of wireless networks

by Piyush Gupta, P. R. Kumar - IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON INFORMATION THEORY , 2000
"... When n identical randomly located nodes, each capable of transmitting at bits per second and using a fixed range, form a wireless network, the throughput @ A obtainable by each node for a randomly chosen destination is 2 bits per second under a noninterference protocol. If the nodes are optimally p ..."

Similar results also hold under an alternate physical model where a required signal-to-interference ratio is specified for successful receptions. Fundamentally, it is the need for every node all over the domain to share whatever portion
