Deepwater and Other Sharks of the U.S. Atlantic Ocean Exclusive Economic Zone

Fifty-one deepwater and other shark species of the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone in the Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico, which currently are not included in any Federal fishery management plan, are described, with a focus on primary distribution. Many of these shark species are not well known, while others which are more common may be of particular interest. Owing to concerns regarding possible increases in fishing effort for some of these species, as well as possible increases in bycatch rates as other fisheries move farther offshore, it is important that these sharks be considered in marine ecosystem management efforts. This will necessitate a better understanding of their biology and distribution. Primary distribution maps are included, based on geographic information system (GIS) analyses of both published and unpublished data, and a review of the literature. The most recent systematic classification and nomenclature for these species is used

A Hospital for the Care & Rehabilitation of Crippled Children

The purpose of this program will be to outline the requirements for a Crippled Childrens\u27 Hospital so that the project architect can prepare schematic and preliminary drawings. This program should not in any way limit the imagination of the architect as long as the specific functional and area requirements are met

Cue Phrases in Discourse: Further Evidence for the Core:Contributor Distinction

this paper. It is therefore possible that Moore and Moser's nding generalises: there is a set of segments in which cue phrases occur sentence-initially, and a set of segments which can be analysed into a core and contributor (s), with the core rst; but these two sets are disjoint

Improving Medication Adherence in Patients with Comorbidities

Interventions that involve pharmacists to review, simplify, and monitor medication use significantly improve adherence in patients with multiple medical conditions. (Strength of Recommendation: B, based on heterogeneous randomized controlled trials [RCTs].) The effect of these interventions on patient-oriented outcomes is not clear. There are no data on physician- or nurse-based interventions for improving medication adherence

Shared task proposal: Instruction giving in virtual worlds

This paper reports on the results of the working group “Virtual Environ-ments ” at the Workshop on Shared Tasks and Comparative Evaluation for NLG. This working group discussed the use of virtual environments as a platform for NLG evaluation, and more specifically of the generation of in

From photons to big-data applications: terminating terabits

Computer architectures have entered a watershed as the quantity of network data generated by user applications exceeds the data-processing capacity of any individual computer end-system. It will become impossible to scale existing computer systems while a gap grows between the quantity of networked data and the capacity for per system data processing. Despite this, the growth in demand in both task variety and task complexity continues unabated. Networked computer systems provide a fertile environment in which new applications develop. As networked computer systems become akin to infrastructure, any limitation upon the growth in capacity and capabilities becomes an important constraint of concern to all computer users. Considering a networked computer system capable of processing terabits per second, as a benchmark for scalability, we critique the state of the art in commodity computing, and propose a wholesale reconsideration in the design of computer architectures and their attendant ecosystem. Our proposal seeks to reduce costs, save power and increase performance in a multi-scale approach that has potential application from nanoscale to data-centre-scale computers.This work was supported by the UK Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council Internet Project EP/H040536/1.
