Not everything is everywhere: the distance decay of similarity in a marine host-parasite system
2009
Aim We test the similarity–distance decay hypothesis on a marine host–parasite system, inferring the relationships from abundance data gathered at the lowest scale of parasite community organization (i.e. that of the individual host). Location Twenty-two seasonal samples of the bogue Boops boops (Teleostei: Sparidae) were collected at seven localities along a coastal positional gradient from the northern North-East Atlantic to the northern Mediterranean coast of Spain. Methods We used our own, taxonomically consistent, data on parasite communities. The variations in parasite composition and structure with geographical and regional distance were examined at two spatial scales, namely loca…

Incorporation of learning strategies into adult distance learning
2008
Incorporation of learning strategies into adult distance learning The paper is based on a study of a group of adult students in a distance learning environment. The focus of the study is on the student comprehension of particular learning strategies. The students' experiences are documented by using case study method and interviews, as well as a quantitative analysis of the results of a survey. The conclusions are that a direct teaching component for learning strategies in a distance learning course may improve the students' strategy awareness as well as contribute to the empowerment of adult students as autonomous learners by reducing their anxiety dealing with new learning situations, by …

Closeness and distance through the agentive authorial voice: construing credibility in promotional discourse.
2020
Credibility is a function associated with promotional genres and persuasion, and a powerful marketing concept (Eisend, 2006; Ming, 2006) which provides trustworthiness about the quality of products or services offered by hotels (Suau-Jiménez, 2012a, 2019). It is partly attained through the hotel‘s self-mentioning in websites. When this self-mentioning is agentive with action verbs, the main instantiation is the pronoun we, projecting closeness and assertiveness. However, this self-representation is also construed with depersonalized realizations like the hotel‘s proper name, other nominalizations or even pronouns like it and they, which provide attenuating aspects and create a sense of dist…
La distance en analyse spatiale : une approche axiomique
1985
L'analyse spatiale met en lumière des processus d'interdépendance où ladistance joue un rôle explicatif fondamental. Une large partie de l'analyse spatiale est consacrée à l'étude de la forme de la relation entre les phénomènes économiques et sociaux observés et la distance à des lieux privilégiés, et aux variations de cette relation. Or cette forme est en partie conditionnée par la représentation de l'espace qu'on se donne, donc par la représentation de la distance dans cet espace. La littérature offre un certain nombre de spécifications analytiques de la distance entre deux lieux repérés par leurs coordonnées, par exemple la distance euclidienne, longtemps privilégiée, et plus récemment l…
A Probabilistic Approach to the Count-To-Infinity Problem in Distance-Vector Routing Algorithms
2013
Count-to-infinity problem is characteristic for routing algorithms based on the distributed implementation of the classical Bellman-Ford algorithm. In this paper a probabilistic solution to this problem is proposed. It is argued that by the use of a Bloom Filter added to the routing message the routing loops will with high probability not form. An experimental analysis of this solution for use in Wireless Sensor Networks in practice is also included.

Immediate implants following tooth extraction. A systematic review
2012
Objectives: The aim of this article is to review the current state of immediate implants, with their pros and contras, and the clinical indications and contraindications. Material and Methods: An exhaustive literature search has been carried out in the COCHRANE library and MEDLINE electronic databases from 2004 to November 2009. Randomized clinical trials and clinical trials focused on single implants placed in fresh extraction sockets were included and compared. A meta-analysis could not be performed due to heterogeneity of the data. Results: Twenty studies out of 135 articles from the initial search were finally included, which summed up a total of 1139 immediate implants with at least a …
