Electronic publishing and large databases make it possible to store scientific data together with the texts that report scientific studies about these data. The SCD model, inspired from the logicist program, suggests to structure documents according to the role of each paragraph in the overall argumentation. The Arkeotek project promotes the use of the SCD format for scientific writing in archa...

The premise of model-based diagnosis is that the system for diagnosing is diagnosable. Previous methods to diagnose fault are mainly based on the assumption of abrupt change, and under this kind of assumption, unpredictable fault can be caused by those possible slowly changing fault or that the system cannot be diagnosed. Diagnosability of slowly changing fault is discussed in this essay, and t...

The K-band light-profiles from two statistically complete, diameter-limited samples of disk galaxies have been simultaneously modelled with a seeing-convolved Sérsic r bulge and a seeing-convolved exponential disk. This has enabled an accurate separation of the bulge and disk light, and hence an estimate of the central disk surface brightness μ0,K and the disk scale-length h. There exists a bri...

In the paper we study the growth properties of composite entire and meromophic functions using L-order and L∗-order improving some earlier results where L ≡ L(r) is a slowly changing function. Mathematics Subject Classification: 30D35, 30D30
