The present status of the problem of neutrino mass, mixing and neutrino oscillations is briefly summarized. The evidence for oscillations of atmospheric neutrinos found recently in the Super-Kamiokande experiment is discussed together with the results of the solar neutrino experiments and the accelerator LSND experiment.

Historical trends in face perception research during the past half century are summarized. The dual process model offered by cognitive neuroscientists to account for the perception of identity and emotion expression in the face is briefly reviewed together with supporting evidence. An ecological approach that incorporates missing pieces of face perception is offered as an additional, broader co...

Contemporary information systems are generally built on the principle of segregation of data and processes. Data are modeled in terms of entities and relationships while processes are modeled as chains of events and activities. This situation engenders an impedance mismatch between the process layer, the business logic layer and the data layer. We discuss some of the issues that this impedance ...
