As a result of growing economic globalization and rapid technological changes governance in the Želd of information and communication policy increasingly requires policy co-ordination across multiple arenas, not only including vertical co-ordination across different institutional levels, but also horizontal coordination across different policy sectors. In view of these new co-ordination demands...

Distributed co-ordination is the result of dynamical processes enabling independent agents to coordinate their actions without the need of a central co-ordinator. In the past few years, several computational models have illustrated the role played by such dynamics for self-organizing communication systems. In particular, it has been shown that agents could bootstrap shared convention systems ba...

Following its widespread adoption into clinical practice in the early 1970s the drug cispiatin (cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II), cis[PrClfiH J2]) has improved substantially the response rate5 in a number of malignant conditions, particularly testicular and ovarian cancer. However, the clinical utility of the drug is limited by its toxic side effects. The most significant of these is kidney tox...

The co-ordination language Linda has been used for parallel processing for many years. Linda uses a shared tuple space and a number of primitives to provide access to the tuple space and thereby enabling communication between processes executing concurrently. Linda provides asynchronous communication between processes, but synchronous access between the processes and the tuple spaces. The Bonit...

/^ERTAIN specific health functions -?a term ^ which may be regarded as embracing personal hygiene and child-welfare?have during the last halfcentury been added to those already possessed by Poor Law Guardians by the Cleansing of Persons Act, 1897, the Children Act, 1908 (the regulation of babyfarming and the prevention of cruelty to children), and the Vaccination Acts, 1867 to 1907.

The complex web of standards setting bodies (SSBs) has triggered the need for co-operation and co-ordination in ICT standards setting at various levels. This paper looks at the co-ordination between SSBs, and proposes some improvements to the current situation. It also argues that SSBs need to coordinate with their stakeholders. This need is derived from a small qualitative study, which is brie...
