Phenotypic matching by spot pattern potentially mediates female giraffe social associations

Automatic Parallelization by Pattern-Matching

We present the top{down design of a new system which performs automatic parallelization of numerical Fortran 77 or C source programs for execution on distributed{memory message { passing multi-processors such as e.g. the INTEL iPSC860 or the TMC CM{5. The key idea is a high{level pattern{matching approach which in some useful way permits partial restructuring of a wide class of numerical progra...

Sex Differences in Giraffe Feeding Ecology: Energetic and Social Constraints

Sex ratios of giraffe groups differ in different habitats, with open vegetation having female­ biased groups, and tall, thick vegetation having male-biased groups. On a ranch in south-central Kenya, we quantified habitat differences of male and female giraffe groups and showed that the preference for open habitats by female groups was limited to groups with young. We suggest that this differenc...

Automated Email Answering by Text Pattern Matching

Answering email by standard answers is a common practice at contact centers. Our research assists this process by creating reply messages that contain one or several standard answers. Our standard answers are linked to representative text patterns that match incoming messages. The system works in three languages. The performance was evaluated on two email sets; the main advantage of our email a...
