SINBAD Neurosemantics: A theory of mental representation. Mind
- Brain & Mind
, 2001
"... Abstract: I present an account of mental representation based upon the ‘SINBAD’ theory of the cerebral cortex. If the SINBAD theory is correct, then networks of pyramidal cells in the cerebral cortex are appropriately described as representing, or more specifically, as modelling the world. I propose ..."

Comment on Ryder’s SINBAD Neurosemantics: Is Teleofunction Isomorphism the Way to Understand Representations?
"... Abstract: The merit of the SINBAD model is to provide an explicit mechanism showing how the cortex may come to develop detectors responding to correlated properties and therefore corresponding to the sources of these correlations. Here I argue that, contrary to the article, SINBAD neurosemantics doe ..."

Sensitivity Analysis and Uncertainty Propagation from Basic Nuclear Data to Reactor Physics and Safety Relevant Parameters
"... Reliable knowledge of the uncertainties in important reactor parameters, like criticality, radiation load on the reactor components, neutron/gamma ray flux, nuclear heating and dose are crucial for nuclear safety concerns. Uncertainties are introduced either through the calculational algorithms or t ..."

or through the data uncertainties. The paper addresses the uncertainties in the reactor parameters linked to the basic nuclear data uncertainties. The method used is based on linear perturbation theory to calculate the sensitivity coefficients, and propagates these sensitivities using the basic data
CHAPTER FIFTEEN
"... Comptinology (from comptine: French for nursery rhyme, hence the study of same.) Even a small child will sometimes chant a nursery rhyme and afterwards think, “where did it come from? ” “Oh, it’s very old,” says the mother. It is indeed very old. No one knows where it came from. The child grows old ..."

and has passed the song to others. There are variations. Beginning two centuries ago, they have been printed and the oral tradition is helped in maintaining itself in a bureaucratic world. Stories like “Sinbad the Sailor ” go back and back until we discover that the dynastic Egyptians possessed them
