State = R≥0 ×R≥0 For an abstract state (d, a), we call dist(d, a) = d+ a the energy-adjusted distance. The computational state comprises: • A simple distance d ∈ R≥0 to the base station, like the simple distance of an abstract state. • An energy level e ∈ Energy. • An energy-faithful adjustment f ∈ R≥0 capturing energy deficiencies along the route to the base station. • A table nt containing en...

During May 1988 a 1230-m ice thickness profile was drilled across a floe in Fram Strait. The probability density function of this data set corresponds closely to extensive ice draft measurements from submarines and the thickness distribution of floes sampled randomly in the area. The observed similarity is attributed to the topography of the pack ice in Fram Strait where each floe is composed o...

The Berlin patient is the first publicly known case of HIV remission as a result of HIV treatment. The perils of interrupting treatment after it has been initiated are discussed, and case studies of volunteers who have discontinued treatment are described. The case of the Berlin patient has sparked discussion of new treatment strategies that may involve highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAA...
