not to generate states of consciousness. For example, Center for Neural Science all animals defend themselves from danger. When the New York University system that takes care of defense is operative in a brain 6 Washington Place that also happens to have consciousness, then the sub-Room 1066 jective state of mind called fear arises. It seems very New York, New York 10003 likely that these behav...

Compositions are conceptualized as non alternating sequences of blocks of non-decreasing and strictly decreasing partitions. We find the generating function F (x, y, q) where x marks the size of the composition, y the number of parts and q the number of such partition blocks minus 1. We form these blocks starting on the left-hand-side of the composition and maximizing the size of each block. We...

Music composition is an interesting problem that tests the creativity capacities of artificial intelligence. Creating original pieces of music is not much different than generating free text or any other form of sequential data such as stock price trends. We apply simple algorithms such as the n-gram model to explore the space of music composition. Then we explore the ability of the RNN and the...

Synthesis of functionally gradient coating was the main goal of researches to cover some deficiencies of metallic coatings. In this study, a new strategy for generating functionally gradient coatings of nickel-chromium on a carbon steel substrate using pulse electrodeposition has been presented. The gradual changes of the duty cycle and pulse frequency were used to generate the functionally gra...

absence of food will move in the same assay without 197–204. main features of the neural circuit controlling thermo-92, 846–849. play antagonistic roles in thermotaxis: AIY activity favors migration to high temperatures and AIZ activity favors low temperatures (Mori and Ohshima, 1995). The paper by Gomez et al. (2001) in this issue of Neuron reports a role for a C. elegans neuronal Ca 2ϩ than Y...

Lambda-Upsilon-Omega, , is a system designed to perform automatic analysis of well-deened classes of algorithms operating over \decomposable" data structures. It consists of an`Algebraic Analyzer' System that compiles algorithms speciica-tions into generating functions of average costs, and an`Analytic Analyzer' System that extracts asymptotic informations on coeecients of generating functions....

Service-oriented architecture (SOA) is an emerging architectural style for developing and structuring business applications, especially enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems. SOA applications are composed of small, independent, and network-accessible software components, named services. The service composition is normally based on the enterprise’s business processes. However, current compo...
