A new species of indotyphlid caecilian amphibian, Gegeneophis tejaswini sp. nov., is described based on eight specimens from lowlands of the most northerly district of the state of Kerala in the southern part of the Western Ghats region, India. This species is distinguished from all other Gegeneophis in annulation characters and genetics (> 6% different from most similar nominal species for ...

Evolved traits such as intuitive skills have allowed individuals to quickly evaluate a suitable sexual Having determined that someone is attractive at first sight, an individual may become emotionally attached to that person and communicate their affection via a copulatory gaze, in which the individual gazes into the other person's eyes for many seconds (Fisher, 1992). In this opinion piece, I ...

Wireless networks are commonly used by people. Market devices are equipped with the new security standard 802.11i. The standard announced in the middle of 2004 is commonly used to protect WLANs. Currently we can find the information that vulnerabilities were found in that standard. Then a question arises: Are WLANs compromised again? The article describes vulnerabilities which were discovered i...

1. A maximum of 15 loci from five genera of caecilians (Amphibia: Gymnophiona or Apoda) were examined. Species include lchthyophis glutinosus, Geotrypetes seraphini, Caecilia occidentalis, Gymnopis multiplicata, and Dermophis mexicanus. 2. The data indicate that [chtkyophis (family Ichthyophiidae) is less closely related than are the other genera (members of the family Caeciliidae). Dermophis a...

This paper is organized as follows. In Section 2, we introduce some basic concepts. In Section 3, we explain two strategies for symmetry exploitation during search. In Section 4, we present the problem of B I B D generation. In Section 5, we formulate the B I B D generation as a CSP and give empirical results. In Section 6, we revise previous approaches to this topic. Section 7 contains conclus...

All of these papers share a concern with producing analyses of culture that are comprehensive and internally coherent. All agree with van der Leeuw that formalization can be used to achieve this. All assume that such analyses will be more than mere categorizations or remote analogies and will help expose the inner dynamics of culture. Though there is a common commitment to formalization as a ba...

Research has shown that single stuck-at fault (SSF) Ndetect test sets are effective for detecting defects not modeled by the SSF model. Experimental results showed N-detect coverage is a good metric for determining test quality. In this paper, we examine the test quality of pseudo-random Built-In-Self-Test (BIST) patterns by quantifying the relations between their N-detect coverage and test len...
