Saam, Brian | Comment on: New limit on lorentz-invariance- and CPT-violating neutron spin interactions using a free-spin-precession 3He- 129Xe comagnetometer | In Ref. [1], the authors use a classical result for the magnetic field created by a uniform magnetization to analyze the effects of magnetic interactions between 3He and 129Xe nuclear spins. We point out that the classical result is not applicable for interaction between nuclear spins: the actual in... | | 2014-01-01 |

Balasubramonian, Rajeev | Commit algorithms for scalable hardware transactional memory | In a hardware transactional memory system with lazy versioning and lazy conflict detection, the process of transaction commit can emerge as a bottleneck. For a large-scale distributed memory system, we propose novel algorithms to implement commit that are deadlock- and livelock-free and do not empl... | Commit algorithms; Scalable; Hardware; Transactional memory | 2007 |

Clayton, Dale H. | Common grackle anting with lime fruit and its effect on ectoparasites | Anting is stereotyped behavior in which birds ex- pose themselves to fluid-secreting ants or other pun- gent substances. During "active" anting a bird crush- es an ant in the bill and rubs it frenetically through its plumage (Rothschild and Clay 1952). During "passive" anting a bird entices ants to ... | Quiscalus quiscala; Columbicola columbae; Anting; Ectoparasites | 1993 |

Thalos, Mariam G. | Common need for classical epistemological foundations: against a feminist alternative | The difficulties of justifying a recipe for scientific inquiry that calls for sensory experience and logic as sole ingredients can hardly be overestimated. Resolving the riddles of induction, steadily mounting against empiricism since Hume, has come to seem like an exercise in making bricks without... | Epistomology; Feminism; Sensory experience; Logic; Inductive inference | 1994 |
