Rabbits killing birds revisited.
We formulate and study a three-species population model consisting of an endemic prey (bird), an alien prey (rabbit) and an alien predator (cat). Our model overcomes several model construction problems in existing models. Moreover, our model generates richer, more reasonable and realistic dynamics. We explore the possible control strategies to save or restore the bird by controlling or eliminat...
متن کاملKilling two birds with one stone.
A ‘business model’ is commonly seen as composed of two elements: a business system and a profit model. While the latter often gains the higher profile, the former is arguably the real ‘meat’ of a firm’s business model. Not only does it act as the ‘system of works’ that actually produces and delivers the firm’s products or services, it is also the locus where a firm can learn about its operation...
متن کاملRapamycin: Killing two birds with one stone
in both invertebrate and invertebrate species by modulating a number of downstream molecular pathways [1,2]. Drugs that inhibit the TOR pathway can serve as powerful tools to translate the effects of the TOR pathway on lifespan in simpler invertebrate model systems to more complex systems like mammals. One of the most promising drugs to slow aging is rapamycin, an inhibitor of TOR, which was pr...
متن کاملJustifiable preferences
We characterize preferences over acts that can be represented by a utility function and a multiple–prior, such that an act f is preferred to act g if there is a prior under which the expected utility induced by f is higher than that induced by g. These preferences are referred to as justifiable preferences. We further introduce a generalized model of ambiguity that involves a collection of mult...
متن کاملLeft Atrial Appendage Closure: Killing 2 Birds With 1 Stone?
L eft atrial appendage (LAA) closure in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) has been practiced since the 1930s, even without evidence-based data in the form of randomized controlled trials in support of this procedure. Initially, LAA closure through excision or ligation was performed by cardiothoracic surgeons in the context of open heart surgery for other reasons, akin to general surgeons r...
