Our ultimate goal is to help authors to find an elusive word. Whenever we need a word, we look it up in the place where it is stored, the dictionary or the mental lexicon. The question is how do we manage to find the word, and how do we succeed to do this so quickly? While these are difficult questions, I believe to have some practical answers for them. Since it is unreasonable to perform searc...

Lucy-n is a language for programming networks of processes communicating through bounded buffers. A dedicated type system, termed a clock calculus, automatically computes static schedules of the processes and the sizes of the buffers between them. In this article, we present a new algorithm which solves the subtyping constraints generated by the clock calculus. The advantage of this algorithm i...

In contrast to adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (identified from ten years of age to the age of skeletal maturity), the juvenile idiopath...
