Among the European languages with a participial passive, there are some that tend to distinguish dynamic passive and object resultative through the use of different auxiliaries, e.g. English, Italian or German. In German, the difference is obligatory, and the German difference between the werdenpassive and the sein-resultative had an influence on several neighboring languages (Polish, Sorbian, ...

morphine’s effects on learning and memory processes are well known to depend on synaptic plasticity in the hippocampus. whereas the role of the hippocampus in morphine-induced amnesia and state-dependent learning is established, the biochemical and molecular mechanisms underlying these processes are poorly understood. the present study intended to investigate whether administration of morphine ...

A constructive method is presented in which L2 -stability can be guaranteed for networked control of multiple passive plants in spite of random time varying delays and data dropouts. The passive plants are interfaced to a wave variable based passive sampler (PS) and passive hold (PH) which allows a passive digital control network to be constructed. A power junction is used to facilitate the int...

Impersonal constructions are interesting from a typological perspective. Siewierska (2008: 3–4) finds that “[t]he semantic characterizations of impersonality centre on two notions”, either “the lack of a human agent controlling the depicted situation or event” or “situations or events which may be brought about by a human agent but crucially one which is not specified.” The present article focu...

In duty-cycled wireless sensor networks, the nodes switch between active and dormant states, and each node determine its active/dormant schedule independently. This complicates the Minimum Energy Multicasting (MEM) problem in wireless sensor networks both for one-to-many multicasting and for all-to-all multicasting. In the case of one-to-many multicasting, we present a formalization of the Mini...

is paper deals with ‘stacked passives’ in Turkish, an impersonal passive construction with two occurrences of passive morphology and two instances of argument reduction. e aim will be to adequately capture the fact that each instance of passivization seems to be mirrored by a morphological režex on the verb. I will adopt the theory of passivization in Müller (2014), who assumes that passivizati...
