Extinction risk has not been evaluated for 96% of all described plant species. Given that the Global Strategy for Plant Conservation proposes preliminary conservation assessments of all described plant species by 2010, ...

Software size has proved to be one of the main effort-and-cost drivers. It is widely accepted that software size is one of the key factors that has the potential to affect the effort and cost of the software projects. ...

The central limit theorem indicates that when the sample size goes to infinite, the sampling distribution of means tends to follow a normal distribution; it is the basis for the most usual confidence interval and sample ...

The ratio of brain size to body size (relative brain size) is often used as a measure of relative investment in the brain in ecological and evolutionary studies on a wide range of animal groups. In birds, a variety of ...

In this work we are interested in estimating the size of a cavity D immersed in a bounded domain Omega subset of R-d, d = 2, 3, filled with a viscous fluid governed by the Stokes system, by means of velocity and Cauchy ...

The VSS X- chart is known to perform better than the traditional X- control chart in detecting small to moderate mean shifts in the process. Many researchers have used this chart in order to detect a process mean shift ...

Successful conservation strategies require an accurate estimation of population size and this parameter is one of the most important factors that determine the rate of various evolutionary processes. In this study we ...
