Microbial flora of the skin of three human population groups representing different natural environments was examined quantitatively and qualitatively to determine whether environmental differences in temperature and humidity can influence the microbial flora of normal skin. Five anatomical skin sites - hands, back, axillae, groin, and feet - were sampled from 10 subjects working in a high-humi...

This paper presents the LinguaStream platform, developped to offer an integrated development environment for designing complex natural language processing (NLP) systems. It relies extensively on XML, and demonstrates a practical use of this standard and surrounding ones for NLP, taking particular attention on semantic concerns.
