An Application of Rough Set Theory to Modelling and Utilising Data Warehouses

1 IntroductionBuilding a data warehouse is an effective way for accommodating enormous historical datathat should be subject oriented and organised in hierarchies, and for providing a goodenvironment for knowledge discovery. Dimensional modelling is a logical design techniqueoften used for data warehousing. Every hierarchy related to a concept is reflected in thedefinition of a dimension.Summary information at all leve1s defined using dimensions accounts for most of thecontents in a data wareh…

20世纪的宇宙物理学

暗物质、Ω和最初的一微秒再过 50亿年左右 ,太阳连同我们的地球就要灭亡了。大约在同一时间 (前后可能相差 1 0亿年 )仙女座星系也要和我们的银河系相撞。但是 ,宇宙会永远膨胀下去吗 ?如果不会 ,它最终会塌缩成一个新的奇点 ,而万物都将遭受到和不小心坠入黑洞的宇航员一样的命运吗 ?问题的答案取决于无处不在的引力到底能对宇宙的膨胀产生多大的负面作用。直接计算的结果表明 ,如果宇宙的平均密度大于每立方米 5个重子 (即所谓的临界密度 ) ,那么 ,它最终将收缩成最初的状态(重子是质子和中子的总称 ,所有原子都含有重子 )。听起来 ,这个…     

氖和亚铜等离子蒸气系统中的负离子和电子能量分配函数

计算了激光产生铜等离子体蒸气中的物理和动力学参数，通过数值分析近似地求解玻尔兹曼动力学方程，发现存在一些具有各向同性和固定值物理量。在气体放电系统中观察了HBr混合物对其物理参数和电子能量分配函数的影响，利用交叉区电子碰撞激发过程计算了反应速度系数，表明具有HBr混合物的3d^94s^22D能级的共振激发更好。

Sperm viability in the reproductive tract of females in a population of Sceloporus mucronatus exhibiting asynchronous reproduction

Asynchronous reproduction is a common phenomenon in high-elevation populations of lizards from Central México. Sperm storage in the reproductive tract of females is the mechanism for making oocyte fertilization possible. Our study addresses questions related to functional oviductal sperm storage of females mating on different dates throughout the reproductive season. A population of Sceloporus mucronatus with copulation in the summer and ovulation in the fall was chosen for this experiment. Eleven females that copulated in the field during June and 13 females that copulated in captivity during August were maintained in the laboratory until parturition. The number of pregnant females and the litter sizes produced in each experimental group were indicative of the viability of the stored sperm. Sperm stored in the reproductive tract of females were able to fertilize eggs after 4 months. No significant differences were found in the number of pregnant females between the 2 experimental groups nor in the litter sizes that they produced. We found that the amount of time sperm were held in the female reproductive tract (ca. 3 months) had no effect on the capacity of sperm to fertilize eggs. Histological examination of 8 oviducts collected before the mating season eliminated the possibility of sperm storage from one year to the next. In this system, sperm retention could have evolved as a response mechanism to deal with the asynchrony between sexes in the reproductive cycles. However, we cannot rule out alternative hypotheses.     

Demography of the Yarrow's spiny lizard, Sceloporus jarrovii , from the central Chihuahuan Desert

The demography of a population of Yarrow's spiny lizard, Sceloporus jarrovii , was examined from 2004 to 2006 in the canyon Las Piedras Encimadas, located in Gomez Palacio, Durango, México. Lizards were studied using a mark-recapture technique. Reproduction in females occurred between November and May, coinciding with dry conditions. Reproductive activity was highest (percent of females with vitellogenic follicles or embryos) in the middle of the dry season (November and December). Thirteen percent of females reached sexual maturity at an average age of 8.5 months. The population structure was similar in spring and fall, but not in summer. A notable feature of summer, coinciding with the wet season, was the greater number of hatchlings and juveniles. The overall sex ratio did not differ from 1:1. The density of adults varied from 12 to 62 animals ? 0.5 ha –1 . Temperate and arid-adapted populations of S. jarrovii exhibited broad similarity in timing of the reproductive season, whereas factors such as density, growth, age at sexual maturity, and survivorship differed.
