New views on old memories: re-evaluating the role of the hippocampal complex
, 2001
"... Evidence of temporally graded retrograde amnesia (RA) following hippocampal damage has fuelled the long-standing belief that memory undergoes a consolidation process, whereby memories are progressively modified in neocortical regions until they are independent of the hippocampal (HPC) complex. Suppo ..."

between the HPC and neocortex that persist for as long as those memories exist. On the other hand, semantic, or context-free, memories can become independent of the HPC as consolidation theory predicts. In support of this view, we report recent accounts of relatively flat RA gradients in autobiographical
Marquis: Prospects for Organization Theory in the Early Twenty-First
- Century Organization Science
, 2005
"... T his paper argues that research in organization theory has seen a shift in orientation from paradigm-driven work to problem-driven work since the late 1980s. A number of paradigms for the study of organizations were elaborated during the mid-1970s, including transaction cost economics, resource de ..."

) mechanisms is particularly apt during a time of significant social and economic transitions, when the explanatory power of old theories has broken down. We then review studies in the tradition of new institutional theory that exemplify the kind of mechanism-based theorizing that we advocate. We conclude
Dissemination of Dynamic Data: Semantics, Algorithms, and Performance
"... The Internet and the Web are increasingly used to disseminate fast changing data such as sensor data, traffic and weather information, stock prices, sports scores, and even health monitoring information. These data items are highly dynamic, i.e., the data changes continuously and rapidly, streamed i ..."

1A Typographic Dilemma: Reconciling the old with the new using a new cross-disciplinary typographic framework AUTHOR
, 2004
"... Current theory and vocabulary used to describe typographic practice and scholarship are based on a historically print-derived framework. As yet, no new paradigm has emerged to address the divergent path that screen-based typography is taking from its traditional print medium. Screen-based typography ..."

Memory, language and ageing.

"... Abstract This overview provides both theoretical and empirical reasons for emphasizing practice and familiar skills as a practical strategy for enhancing cognitive functioning in old age. Our review of empirical research on age-related changes in memory and language reveals a consistent pattern of ..."

Presentations and this and that: logic in action.

"... Abstract The tie between linguistic entities (e.g., words) and their meanings (e.g., objects in the world) one that a reasoning agent had better know about and be able to alter when occasion demands. This has a number of important commonsense uses. The formal point, though, is that a new treatment ..."

new treatment is called for so that rational behavior via a logic can measure up to the constraint that it be able to change usage, employ new words, change meanings of old words, and so on. The usual fixed language with a fixed semantics that is the stockin-trade of AI seems inappropriate
Design-Oriented Pedagogy for Technology-Enhanced Learning to Cross Over the Borders between Formal and Informal Environments
"... Abstract: In this paper, we introduce an instructional model for technology-enhanced learning in the framework of a design-oriented pedagogy. The model is based on the collaborative designing of learning objects representing real objects in nature and culture environments. Project-based learning, w ..."

Indispensable and sufficient features of change

Tractable Form of Non-Monotonic Reasoning to Generate Belief Set
"... Nonmonotonic reasoning is intended to apply specifically in situation where the initial information is incomplete. The most important property of traditional system is monotonicity, i.e. addition of new facts to the database or to the theory does not result in any previous fact being retracted. Ther ..."

. There does not exist any inconsistency between the old statements and newly added statements and is assume that situation do not change. But in real world problem situation changes and so many new assumptions are generated. A monotonic reasoning system cannot work efficiently in real life environments
The Changing Face of Inequality in Home Mortgage Lending

"... American homeownership has long been characterized by racial, ethnic, and geographic inequality. In-equality in homeownership, in turn, has contributed to racial and class segregation and inequality in other aspects of American life. Recently, however, there have been signs of dramatic change, as mi ..."
