Shope (1) found that domestic rabbits bearing his papilloma were generally immune to reinoculation with the virus, an observation that has been amply confirmed by Kidd, Beard, and Rous ( 2 , 3 ) and by Ladewig (4).

Synchronization behavior among agents is found in flocking of birds, schooling of fish, and other natural systems. Synchronization among coupled oscillators was studied by (Kuramoto 1975). Much work has extended consensus and synchronization techniques to manmade systems such as UAV to perform various tasks including surveillance, moving in formation, etc. We refer to consensus and synchronizat...

The concept of affectivity has assumed central importance in much recent scholarship, and many in the social sciences and humanities now talk of an ‘affective turn’. The concept of affectivity at play in this ‘turn’ remains, however, somewhat vague and slippery. Starting with Silvan Tomkins’ influential theory of affect, this paper will explore the relevance of the general assumptions (or ‘utmo...
