Yet another symmetry breaking to be discovered

OWL as Yet Another Data Model to be Integrated

The paper argues against cultivation in the ontological community of the opinion that ontologies are at the "semantic" level, whereas database schema are models of data at the "logical" or "physical" level. The paper claims that rather it would be right to consider OWL as yet another data model to be integrated with other heterogeneous information models. Applying the SYNTHESIS – an extensible ...

interferon-λ genetic variations and hepatitis c: yet to be discovered

Yet Another Visit to Paxos

This paper presents a modular introduction to crash-tolerant and Byzantine-tolerant protocols for reaching consensus that use the method introduced by the Paxos algorithm of Lamport and by the viewstamped replication algorithm of Oki and Liskov. The consensus protocol runs a sequence of epoch abstractions as governed by an epoch-change abstraction. Implementations of epoch and epoch-change that...

Neuroeconomics: Yet Another Field Where Rough Sets Can Be Useful?

We deal with neuroeconomics which may be viewed as a new emerging field of research at the crossroads of economics, or decision making, and brain research. Neuroeconomics is basically about neural mechanisms involved in decision making and their economic relations and connotations. We briefly review first the traditional formal approach to decision making, then discuss some experiments of real ...

Interferon-λ Genetic Variations and Hepatitis C: Yet to be Discovered

The association of genetic factors with treatment induced hepatitis C clearance in Pakistani patients was recently demonstrated by Tipu et al. (1). They evaluated the impact of different genetic variants in interferon-λ (IFNL) genomic region on treatment induced hepatitis C clearance. The study was remarkable regarding the investigation of several numbers of single nucleotide polymor-phisms (SN...
