Network topology drives population temporal variability in experimental habitat networks
Population Ecology, EarlyView.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 ...

Efficient computation of hashes [PDF]
, 2014 The sequential computation of hashes at the core of many distributed storage systems and found, for example, in grid services can hinder efficiency in service quality and even pose security challenges that can only be addressed by the use of parallel ...

Geographic variation in walking activity in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum
Population Ecology, EarlyView.This study examined whether there is geographic variation in field populations, focusing on the moving activity in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum. Results showed significant differences in moving activity among field populations but no correlation with latitude or meteorological factors.

The Resilience of Computationalism [PDF]
, 2010 Computationalism—the view that cognition is computation—has always been controversial. It faces two types of objection. According to insufficiency objections, computation is insufficient for some cognitive phenomenon X.

Computational models for parallel computers [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series A, Mathematical and Physical Sciences, 1988 Computational models define the usage patterns of a computer. They can be used to derive the architecture of the machine, provide guidelines for programming tools, and suggest how the machine should be used in applications. Identifying computational models is especially important for parallel computers, because their architectures and usages are still ...

occumb: An R package for site occupancy modeling of eDNA metabarcoding data
Population Ecology, EarlyView.This study introduces a new R package, occumb, for the convenient application of site occupancy modeling using environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding data. We outline a data analysis workflow, including data setup, model fitting, model assessment, and comparison of potential study settings based on model predictions, all of which can be performed using

Three conceptual clarifications about syntax and the brain
Frontiers in Language Sciences, 2023 Linguistic theories offer empirical hypotheses about the architecture of human language, which provide the basis for neurobiological investigations into the study of language use.

Universal blind quantum computation [PDF]
, 2009 We present a protocol which allows a client to have a server carry out a quantum computation for her such that the client's inputs, outputs and computation remain perfectly private, and where she does not require any quantum computational power or memory.

Population Ecology, EarlyView.We investigate the seasonal dynamics of two freshwater snails, Biomphalaria straminea and Melanoides tuberculata, in artificial reservoirs of the Brazilian semiarid region. Despite regulated hydrology, B. straminea exhibited strong seasonal fluctuations associated with dry periods, while M. tuberculata maintained stable populations throughout the year,
