Vector control and personal protection against anthropophilic mosquitoes mainly rely on the use of insecticides and repellents. The search for mosquito-attractive semiochemicals has been the subject of intense studies for decades, and new compounds or odor blends are regularly proposed as lures for odor-baited traps.

Knowledge and innovation are widely acknowledged as key factors for competitiveness and growth of organisations. People are the primary knowledge creators, and therefore, special emphasis is paid nowadays on talent management and attraction. Many companies world-wide have focused on strategic human resources management and creating attractive and ...

Many remarkable properties related to chaos have been found in the dynamics of nonlinear physical systems. These properties are often seen in detailed computer studies, but it is almost always impossible to establish these properties rigorously for specific physical systems. This article presents some strange properties about basins of attraction.

Summary: I argue that dynamicism does not provide a convincing alternative to currently available cognitive theories. First, I show that the attractor dynamics of dynamicist models are inadequate for accounting for high-level cognition. Second, I argue that dynamicist arguments for the rejection of computation and representation are unsound in light of

If a repeated gamble is subjectively structured into units each consisting of a string of consecutive losses followed by a single win, longer strings will necessarily be less valuable. Longer, less valuable strings will be discounted by delay more than will shorter, more valuable strings.

The gypsy moth Lymantria dispar is a persistent pest in Europe, Asia and North America, causing major deforestation as a result of outbreaks approximately every ten years. Each spring the mating period is a chemical frenzy, with stationary females attracting males up to a kilometer away with released sex pheromones.

Humans in societies around the world discriminate between potential mates on the basis of attractiveness in ways that can dramatically affect their lives. From an evolutionary perspective, a reasonable working hypothesis is that the psychological mechanisms underlying attractiveness judgments are adaptations that have evolved in the service of choosing

Rewiring of Attractions or An Attraction of a Rewiring
One of the most understudied movie projects associated with Mayakovsky is the project of Lily Brik’s film “Love and Duty” (“Liubov’ i dolg”, 1929), in which Mayakovsky and his friends planned to participate. The film did not receive a censorship permission; it could have become an artistic interpretation of the practice of film rewiring.openaire +1 more source
