Abstract Acoustic telemetry is widely used to investigate aquatic animal movement. Pulse position modulation (PPM) an acoustic method that allows multiple unique identification codes be transmitted at a single frequency, typically in the 69 kHz range. However, because potential number of (i.e. tags) ultimately limited by pulses PPM signal, this poses practical limitation. In addition, different...

Current methods for compatibility analysis consider only direct service interactions where no mismatches are allowed. However mismatches usually exist among Web services, and their interactions are often carried out with the help of mediators. In addition, current approaches don’t give precise evaluation of partial compatibility which is useful for ranking and selecting candidate services. In t...

This article gives examples of how one might go about increasing the degree of compatibility of C and C++. The ideal is full compatibility. Topics covered includes, variadic functions, v o i d *, b o o l , f (v o i d ), c o n s t , i n l i n e , and variable length arrays. These topics allows a demonstration of concerns that must be taken into account when trying to increase C/C++ compatibility...

In recent years research on automatic imitation has received considerable attention because it represents an experimental platform for investigating a number of interrelated theories suggesting that the perception of action automatically activates corresponding motor programs. A key debate within this research centers on whether automatic imitation is any different than other long-term S-R asso...

zinc oxide nano-particles with the average diameter of about 25 nm were modified with different mole ratios of trimetoxyvinyl silane (tmvs) and oleic acid, as coupling agents, in order to modify their surface properties and render them more hydrophobic. then, dispersibility of the surface modified nano-particles was examined in some monomers with different levels of hydrophobicity, including me...

Theoretical and empirical research on technology acceptance, while acknowledging the importance of individual beliefs about the compatibility of a technology, has produced equivocal results. This study focuses on further theoretical and empirical development of this important belief in technology acceptance. Specifically, unlike prior research which has examined only one aspect of compatibility...

The introduction of a new product generation forces incumbents in network industries to rebuild their installed base to maintain an advantage over potential entrants. We study if backward compatibility can help moderate this process of rebuilding an installed base. Using a structural model of the US market for handheld game consoles, we show that backward compatibility lets incumbents transfer ...

Unlike stimulus-response compatibility, which has been explored for aging effects, the motor behavior issue of response-response (R-R) compatibility has not been addressed in the gerontological literature. R-R compatibility refers to the ease with which two responses can be prepared together either simultaneously or as choice alternatives. In the present study, young, middleaged, and elderly ad...

The present study was designed to examine the hypothesis that stimulus-response arrangements with high ideomotor compatibility lead to substantial compatibility effects even in simple response tasks. In Experiment 1, participants executed pre-instructed finger movements in response to compatible and incompatible finger movements. A pronounced reaction time advantage was found for compatible as ...
