Let μ be a Radon measure on R, which may be non doubling. The only condition that μ must satisfy is the size condition μ(B(x, r)) ≤ C r, for some fixed 0 < n ≤ d. Recently, the author introduced spaces of type BMO(μ) and H(μ) with properties similar to ones of the classical spaces BMO and H defined for doubling measures. These new spaces proved to be useful to study the L(μ) boundedness of Cald...

Can elderly adults automatize a new task? To address this question, 10 older adults each performed 10,080 training trials over 12 sessions on an easy but novel task. The psychological refractory period (PRP) procedure was then used to evaluate whether this highly practiced task, when presented as task 2 along with an unpracticed task 1, could proceed automatically. If automatic, task 2 processi...

Abstract-Analytic models are developed for optimizing bus services with time dependence and elasticity in their demand characteristics. Some supply parameters, i.e. vehicle operating costs and speeds are also allowed to vary over time. The multiple period models presented here allow some of the optimized system characteristics (e.g. route structure) to be fixed at values representing the best c...
