Target 19, set by the Convention on Biological Diversity, seeks to improve the knowledge, science base, and technologies relating to biodiversity. We will fail to achieve this target unless prolific biases in the field of conservation science are addressed. We reveal that comparatively less research is undertaken in the world's most biodiverse countries, the science conducted in these countries...

Given the importance of IT investments in today’s organization, firms tend to spend increasing amounts of time and resources to better manage IT projects. However these projects continue to have high failure rates thus highlighting the need for improved risk management. A stream of IS research has focused on identifying several causes of managerial risks. The theory base that has been used in t...

Kautz, in the above paper' has presented a method of correcting single errors in SIB3 codes that does not displace the count by more than two counts in the counting sequence, assuming the two most significant bits are correct. This paper presents a correction method that does not require the two most significant bits to be correct and does not displace the count by more than one in the counting...

Automated machine translation (MT) of unrestricted texts is known to be error-prone, and thus typically requires human involvement in the translation process to achieve acceptable quality. In a conversational system performing interactive speech translation between two speakers, neither pre-editing nor conventional post-editing is possible, and the users will generally have no direct access to ...

In this paper, we revisit Arveson's characterisation of CCR flows in terms the decomposability product system multiparameter context. We show that a E0-semigroup is flow if and only it decomposable admits unit. contrast to one parameter situation, exhibit uncountably many examples E0-semigroups which do not admit any As applications, for pure isometric representation V, associated αV remembers ...
