We discuss current approaches that, for the sake of automation, provide formal treatments to the problem of semantic interoperability and integration, and we reflect upon the suitability of the Barwise-Seligman theory of information flow as a candidate for a theoretical framework that favours the analysis and implementation of semantic interoperability scenarios.

Is it possible to become a happier person? This is an enormously important issue for subjective well-being (SWB) researchers, as well as for the burgeoning fi eld of positive psychology (Seligman and Csikszentmihalyi, 2000; Sheldon, 2004). Indeed, if happiness cannot be lastingly increased, then one of the basic premises of positive psychology is suspect – namely, that positive psychology is ab...

• Changes in vascular tone and pressure gradients have been established as important factors in the control of regional blood flow, but the influence of varied physical states of the perfusing blood is less clear. In a hemodynamic evaluation of shock, Seligman indicated that enhanced blood viscosity promoted the onset of irreversibility, presumably through an effect on flow. More recently Richa...
