RICHARD HANCOCK ELLIS (1937-1995) With the tragic and premature death of Richard Ellis the history of anaesthesia has lost one of its most outstanding researchers and exponents. Dick Ellis was born on 11 September 1937. He graduated from the London Hospital Medical School in 1961, and commenced his training in anaesthetics two years later. He became a Fellow of the Faculty of Anaesthetists in 1...

For a long time, it was politically incorrect to speak about adaptation to climate change, because it presumably implies accepting defeat in the battle against evil emissions (Burton, 1994). This has changed, perhaps because scientists repeatedly pointed out that climate change cannot be altogether avoided even if we try very hard (Parry et al., 1998; Wigley, 1997), and perhaps because George W...

A parallel sorting algorithm is presented for storage-eecient internal sorting on MIMD machines. The algorithm rst sorts the elements within each node using a serial sorting algorithm, then uses a two-phase parallel merge. The algorithm is comparison-based and requires additional storage of order the square root of the number of elements in each node. Performance of the algorithm on two general...

There have recently been moves afoot among evolutionary biologists to stop speaking of ‘Darwin’s theory of evolution’ and, instead, to call it ‘Darwin’s law of evolution’. This is to stymie creationists who like to say ‘evolution is only a theory’. Now I am all in favour of stymieing creationists, but I think that this idea is misguided. The underlying assumption is that the use of the word ‘La...

1971 The purpose of this paper is to exhibit a theory of integration which can be used on a large class of topological spaces and which generalizes the theory of integration over the locally compact Hausdorff spaces. The first part of the paper is devoted to the construction of such a theory. An integral is viewed as a positive linear functional having a certain extension property on a particul...
