M. H. Bond (2002), A. P. Fiske (2002), S. Kitayama (2002), and J. G. Miller (2002) joined D. Oyserman, H. M. Coon, and M. Kemmelmeier (2002) in highlighting limitations of the individualism-collectivism model of culture. Concern is warranted; nevertheless, individualism-collectivism helps structure discourse on the influence of culture on the mind. To avoid level-of-analysis entanglements, Oyse...

We derive the distribution of the time-to-empty for an open tandem Jackson network assuming that, while in equilibrium at time 0, the arrival stream is suddenly shut off. The analysis is based on analogous results regarding the distribution of the time-to-empty for the corresponding closed tandem Jackson network. The results obtained are used in the analysis of a two-class tandem Jackson networ...

We report the degree of order of twenty two Jackson Pollock's paintings using Hausdorff-Besicovitch fractal dimension. Through the maximum value of each multi-fractal spectrum, the fractality of the artworks is presented as a function of the year in which they were painted. It has been reported that Pollock's paintings are fractal and it increased on his latest works. However our results show t...
