Matrimonial Patterns and Trans-Ethnic Entities
Despite the complexity of their object of study, i.e. human society and culture, anthropologists seldom address complexity per se. In this paper I would like to briefly suggest approaches to deal with certain ...

Science Information and the Complexity: Are We Oriented to a Transdisciplinary Science?
The concept of transdisciplinarity is an extent of complex expression in society. Currently, the human, social, and phychological contexts are connected and the science needs an answer about this phenomenon. T...

Dynamic Process of Pulmonary Data Analysis: From the Athlete Mouth to the Coach Hands
The dynamic behaviour of pulmonary gas exchange variables (particularly oxygen uptake—VO2) during and after exercise has been studied throughout different exercise modes [1]. However, from the time VO2 is measure...

From Individual to Social Cognition: Piaget, Jung, and Commons
There is no individual cognition. All cognition is always “social cognition.” Individuals who do not participate in a community of “humans” are not able to humanize. This article, which will be presented in vi...

Software is Not Fragile
Trying all simple changes (first order mutations) to executed C, C++ and CUDA source code shows software engineering artefacts are more robust than is often assumed. Of those that compile, up to 89 % run witho...

Exploring the Synergy Between Motorists and Motorcyclists in Urban Mobilization
By employing overly simple rules for mimicking driving behavior in urban traffic, it can be seen a synergistic effect between motorists and motorcyclists in an agent-based environment. When motorcyclists ride ...
