Preliminary analysis of coin finds from the area Roman legionary fortress at Tilurium (today village Gardun, near Trilj) is presented in this paper. The scholarly encompasses yielded by systematic archaeological excavations, as well today stored Museum Cetina Region, Sinj. Most date to a period first half 1st century AD, with noticeable reduction supply starting second and continuing during 2nd...

Termites are known for building some of the most elaborate architectures observed in the animal world. We here analyse some topological properties of three dimensional networks of galleries built by termites of the genus Cubitermes. These networks are extremely sparse, in spite of the fact that there is no building cost associated with higher connectivity. In addition, more “central” vertices (...

been handcuffed, interrogated, held in a cell and maltreated by American security staff. This was as a result of landing at Los Angeles International Airport for a brief stay with the incorrect type of visa. With imminent laws insisting that all new passports contain biometric data such as fingerprints and iris scans, worse appears on the way. Many travellers are also desperately hoping Congres...

Our question answering system was built with a number of priorities in mind. First, we wanted to experiment with natural language processing (NLP) technologies such as shallow parsing, named entity tagging, and coreference chaining. We felt that the small number of terms in the questions coupled with the short length of the answers would make NLP technologies clearly beneficial, unlike previous...

A classical analysis of time correlations in simple fluids based on the generalized Langevin equation is presented. Formulas for the current-current correlations are developed explicitly in a region of frequencies ({d10 3 sec ') and wave numbers (k -10 cm ') whj. ch are explored in typical slow-neutron-scattering measurements. %here applicable, comparisons are made with the results of the numer...

Object-oriented languages with multiple dispatch and multiple inheritance provide rich expressiveness but statically and modularly checking programs in such languages to guarantee that no ambiguous calls can occur at run time has been a difficult problem. We present a core calculus for Fortress, which provides various language features—notably functional methods and components— and solves the p...

We explored the theoretical underpinnings of a commonly used training strategy by examining issues of training and transfer of skill in the context of a complex video game (Space Fortress, Donchin, 1989). Participants trained using one of two training regimens: Full Emphasis Training (FET) or Variable Priority Training (VPT). Transfer of training was assessed with a large battery of cognitive a...

We investigated sources of the asymmetric bias found in estimation of a time interval (250-400 ms) embedded in the Space Fortress task (Donchin, 1989). Two hypotheses to explain this bias were tested in a behavioral experiment: 1) contamination from a different time interval representation, and 2) pressure to complete the task in time. Participants alternated between producing the target interv...
