Management Of Interdependent Data: Specifying Dependency And Consistency Requirements, Amit P. Sheth, Marek Rusinkiewicz Nov 1990

Management Of Interdependent Data: Specifying Dependency And Consistency Requirements, Amit P. Sheth, Marek Rusinkiewicz

Kno.e.sis Publications

Multiple databases that serve the needs of various application systems are considered. One of the significant problems in managing these databases is to maintain the related data items consistent to the required degree. This problem is frequently referred to as `redundant data management'. Since the term `redundancy' tends to imply that the data is unwanted or superfluous, the authors use the more general term `management of interdependent data'. Some preliminary ideas in this area are discussed. The problem of managing interdependent data is characterized, and some important types of interdatabase dependency are identified.

Inferences About Guessing And Knowing By Chimpanzees (Pan Troglodytes), Daniel J. Povinelli, Kurt E. Nelson, Sarah T. Boysen

Sentience Collection

The visual perspective-taking ability of 4 chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) was investigated. The subjects chose between information about the location of hidden food provided by 2 experimenters who randomly alternated between two roles (the guesser and the knower). The knower baited 1 of 4 obscured cups so that the subjects could watch the process but could not see which of the cups contained the reward. The guesser waited outside the room until the food was hidden. Finally, the knower pointed to the correct cup while the guesser pointed to an incorrect one. The chimpanzees quickly learned to respond to the knower. …


Freshwater Aquaculture In Western Australia., Fisheries Department Of Western Australia Sep 1990

Freshwater Aquaculture In Western Australia., Fisheries Department Of Western Australia

Fisheries Management Papers

Freshwater aquaculture in Western Australia is a relatively new industry. The first serious attempts began in 1975 after the Government relaxed the regulations on marron to allow for its farming and sale (at the legal minimum size of 17 mm carapace length). Since 1975, marron have been the focus of most attempts at aquaculture although in recent years trout, yabbies, freshwater aquarium fish and a number of other fish species have received greater attention. In 1984 the Minister for Fisheries established the Fish Farming Legislative Review Committee to review and make recommendations on the fish farming provisions of the Fisheries …

Public Accountability Of Advisory Committees, Sidney A. Shapiro

RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)

The final paper from the symposium on public participation in Risk management discusses existing procedures for ensuring the integrity of advisory committee recommendations. It concludes that they are inadequate and argues that accountability would be better served if nonexperts were included. It also suggests that, in any event, measures need to be taken to indicate, e.g., the bases for committee conclusions.

Application Of Fuzzy Set Technique To Agricultural Planning, S Kumar, Narasingh Misra, B C Ghosh Jun 1990

Application Of Fuzzy Set Technique To Agricultural Planning, S Kumar, Narasingh Misra, B C Ghosh

IIMB Management Review

In India, agriculture remains the dominant sector of economic activity with 74 percent work force depending on it. But the share of income from agriculture sector is less than the employment in it. Also the menace of unemployment and food requirement is increasing with growing population. Hence , there is a great need for increasing production and net profit levels on one hand and employment generation on the other. Irrigation planning plays an .mportant role in increasing agricultural production, net benefit, employment generation etc. as only 32 percent of the total cultivated area is irrigated in our country. Irrigation Planning …


Delayed Protein Complementation With Common Foods Used In The Middle East, Ladon J. Hilton Jun 1990

Delayed Protein Complementation With Common Foods Used In The Middle East, Ladon J. Hilton

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

The purpose of this research was to determine whether whole wheat and lentils, food staples consumed in the Middle East, will exhibit delayed protein complementation when fed in alternating meals. Lentils are limiting in sulfur containing amino acids, especially methionine, while whole wheat is limiting in lysine, and when these proteins are fed together they supplement one another.

Sixty male, Sprague-Dawley weanling rats were divided into six diet groups with ten in each group as follows: diets fed ad libitum; wheat, lentils, wheat and lentils combined; diets pair-fed; wheat and lentils combined, wheat alternating with lentils, lentils alternating with wheat. …

RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)

[Excerpt] "An unindexed journal is of little use over the long haul, and many libraries will not subscribe to it. [Of course, we plan to include at least an author and title index in the next issue, but that doesn't count.] Therefore, we were pleased to learn that Risk has been approved by the Indexing Periodical Literature Advisory Committee [One of the few which may not need nonexpert members!] of the American Association of Law Libraries. This means, for example, that Risk will be included in the Current Law Index, Legaltrac, and Legal Resources Index published by Information Access Company."


Vocal Recognition Of Pups By Mother Mexican Free-Tailed Bats, Tadarida Brasiliensis Mexicana, Jonathan P. Balcombe May 1990

Vocal Recognition Of Pups By Mother Mexican Free-Tailed Bats, Tadarida Brasiliensis Mexicana, Jonathan P. Balcombe

Sentience Collection

The ability of Mexican free-tailed bat mothers and pups to recognize vocalizations of their presumptive kin (pup isolation calls and mother echolocation calls, respectively) was tested using playbacks of recorded calls. Captive individuals were presented with calls of two bats, one presumptive kin and the other a stranger, from opposite sides of a circular wire arena. Response was determined by amount of time spent on each side of the arena, time spent in contact with a cloth bat model in front of each speaker, and number of separate contacts with each model. For the latter two measures, mothers showed a …
