Spectrum Auctions
, 2001
"... Auctions have emerged as the primary means of assigning spectrum licenses to companies wishing to provide wireless communication services. Since July 1994, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has conducted 33 spectrum auctions, assigning thousands of licenses to hundreds of firms. Countries ..."

Cognitive load during problem solving: effects on learning
- COGNITIVE SCIENCE
, 1988
"... Considerable evidence indicates that domain specific knowledge in the form of schemes is the primary factor distinguishing experts from novices in problem-solving skill. Evidence that conventional problem-solving activity is not effective in schema acquisition is also accumulating. It is suggested t ..."

Performance Analysis of the IEEE 802.11 Distributed Coordination Function
, 2000
"... Recently, the IEEE has standardized the 802.11 protocol for Wireless Local Area Networks. The primary medium access control (MAC) technique of 802.11 is called distributed coordination function (DCF). DCF is a carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance (CSMA/CA) scheme with binary slott ..."

The Concept of a Linguistic Variable and its Application to Approximate Reasoning
- Journal of Information Science
, 1975
"... By a linguistic variable we mean a variable whose values are words or sentences in a natural or artificial language. I:or example, Age is a linguistic variable if its values are linguistic rather than numerical, i.e., young, not young, very young, quite young, old, not very oldand not very young, et ..."

The highly irregular firing of cortical cells is inconsistent with temporal integration of random EPSPs
- Journal of Neuroscience
, 1993
"... How random is the discharge pattern of cortical neurons? We examined recordings from primary visual cortex (Vl; Knierim and Van Essen, 1992) and extrastriate cortex (MT; Newsome et al., 1989a) of awake, behaving macaque mon-key and compared them to analytical predictions. For non-bursting cells firi ..."

Contribution of Primary Care to Health Systems and Health 499
"... Evidence of the health-promoting influence of primary care has been accumu-lating ever since researchers have been able to distinguish primary care from other aspects of the health services delivery system. This evidence shows that primary care helps prevent illness and death, regardless of whether ..."

in populations, a finding that holds in both cross-national and within-national studies. The means by which primary care improves health have been identified, thus suggesting ways to improve overall health and reduce differences in health across major population subgroups. Key Words: Primary care, health
A pragmatic view of knowledge and boundaries: Boundary objects in new product development
, 2002
"... This study explores the premise that knowledge in new product development proves both a barrier to and a source of innovation. To understand the problematic nature of knowledge and the boundaries that result, an ethnographic study was used to understand how knowledge is structured differently across ..."

across the four primary functions that are dependent on each other in the creation and production of a high-volume product. A pragmatic view of “knowledge in practice ” is developed, describing knowledge as localized, embedded, and invested within a function and how, when working across functions
Sociocultural theory and second language learning
, 2000
"... The intent of this chapter is to familiarize readers with the principles and con-structs of an approach to learning and mental development known as Socio-cultural Theory.1 Sociocultural Theory (SCT) has its origins in the writings of the Russian psychologist L. S. Vygotsky and his colleagues. SCT ar ..."

Practically speaking, developmental processes take place through participation in cultural, linguistic, and historically formed settings such as family life and peer group interaction
ELEVATOR DESIGN FOR THE 21ST CENTURY: DESIGN CRITERIA FOR ELEVATORS WHEN USED AS THE PRIMARY MEANS OF EVACUATION DURING FIRE EMERGENCIES*
"... The elevator for use in the 21st century must be designed for safety under all conditions that may be expected in the building in which they are to be installed. The integration of smoke control systems and fire protection sys-tems along with evacuation procedures for the use of elevators systems du ..."

that by introducing a number of existing and practical safety measures, elevators can become the primary means of egress, as well as the primary means of ingress to a building. Elevators transport more people, and do this with a safety record that surpasses any other means of transportation. The utilization of today
Treebank Grammars

Common wisdom has it that such grammars do not perform we & though we know of no published data on the issue. The primary purpose of this paper is ..."
