The scope of the CKBE application can include Fuzzy control systems and learning Fuzzy – genetic systems [4] based on the Pittsburgh approach. In the very first ones, they can check the correct working of the control system and can detect any changes in the system to be controlled. In the case of the learning systems, CKBE allows to evaluate the behaviour of the generate individuals, in a previ...

When Congress or a state legislature passes a minimum wage increase, there is often a period of several months between the passage of the increase and its implementation. During this period, employers know the level of the current binding minimum wage, but they also know the level of the minimum wage at a defined future date. Although this “future wage,” as I call it, is not yet binding, employ...

The broad vision of ubiquitous/pervasive computing has inspired several fields of more narrowly defined research, among them wireless sensor networks. Although more narrowly defined, the field of wireless sensor networks is nonetheless stuck in a similar application limbo. In what follows, we discuss this problem in more detail, suggest possible routes of escape, and relate the lessons learned ...

MOTIVATION Due to the increasing number of molecular biological databases and the exponential growth of their contents, database integration is an important topic of research in bioinformatics. Existing approaches in this area have in common that considerable efforts are needed to provide integrated access to heterogeneous data sources. RESULTS This article describes the LIMBO architecture as...

OBJECTIVE Oral tongue cancer presents clinical challenges to effective diagnosis that affect patient experience. Patient experience of the diagnostic process is poorly described, making opportunities for nursing intervention unclear. METHODS We qualitatively describe, using constant comparative analysis, oral tongue cancer diagnosis using data from a larger grounded theory study of oral tongu...
