The inner speech of a character as a way of penetrating the “imaginary” into the “real” (based on the material of the story by M. L. Kashnitz The Straw) [PDF]
The article deals with establishing the specific role of inner speech in a literary text as a tool for introducing the unreal into the real world, based on the example of the short story by M. L. Kashnitz The Straw. The authors rely on the idea of speech

Comparison between two mobile absolute gravimeters: optical versus atomic interferometers [PDF]
We report a comparison between two absolute gravimeters: the LNE-SYRTE cold atoms gravimeter and FG5#220 of Leibniz Universit\"at of Hannover. They rely on different principles of operation: atomic and optical interferometry.

AbstractHomology and distance measures have been routinely used to compare two biological sequences, such as proteins or nucleic acids. The homology measure of Needleman and Wunsch is shown, under general conditions, to be equivalent to the distance measure of Sellers.

A Comparison of some recent Task-based Parallel Programming Models [PDF]
The need for parallel programming models that are simple to use and at the same time efficient for current ant future parallel platforms has led to recent attention to task-based models such as Cilk++, Intel TBB and the task concept in OpenMP version 3.0.

The unpredictably eruptive dynamics of spruce budworm populations in eastern Canada
We examine historical population data for spruce budworm from several locations through the period 1930–1997, and use density‐dependent recruitment curves to test whether the pattern of population growth over time is more consistent with Royama's (1984; Ecological Monographs 54:429–462) linear R(t) model of harmonic oscillation at Green River New ...

Network topology drives population temporal variability in experimental habitat networks
Habitat patches connected by dispersal pathways form habitat networks. We explored how network topology affects population outcomes in laboratory experiments using a model species (Daphnia carinata). Central habitat nodes in complex lattice networks exhibited lower temporal variability in population sizes, suggesting they support more stable ...

Molecular Diagnosis in Hymenoptera Allergy: Comparison of Euroline DPA-Dx and ImmunoCAP
The efficacy of Hymenoptera venom immunotherapy is contingent upon the accurate identification of the insect responsible for the allergic reaction. The techniques used to detect specific IgE suffer from difficulties due to the cross-reactivity between ...
