Evaluation of Plantings for Wildlife on a Power Line Right of Way in Southern Arkansas

The combination of types of land preparation and species of plants seeded along a power line right-of-way was evaluated in terms of the effects upon wildlife. Relative population densities of plants, birds, and mammals were determined for each of the areas under study. A study of the reduction in maintenance costs in relation to the initial investment for preparation and seeding of the land was mad

Computer-derived management information in a special library

Not the least of the benefits of automating libraries and information centers is the enhanced ability to monitor processes and services, to collect, structure, analyze, and report critical or useful data hitherto largely unavailable or excessively difficult and costly to obtain. Good management of information requires good management information information that is as cogent, correct, current, clear, concise, and complete as cost effectiveness and enlightened decision-making demand. Computeraided information systems offer not only opportunities to gain new insights into the services they support; they challenge the systems designer to build in the feedback necessary to control and improve the systems themselves. The focus of this paper is computer-supplied management information in the special library environment. The particular context is that of an extensively computerized, corporate library network in a large research and development organization Bell Laboratories.published or submitted for publicatio

Non-Euclidean Triangle Centers

Non-Euclidean triangle centers can be described using homogeneous coordinates that are proportional to the generalized sines of the directed distances of a given center from the edges of the reference triangle. Identical homogeneous coordinates of a specific triangle center may be used for all spaces of uniform Gaussian curvature. We also define the median point for a set of points in non-Euclidean space and a planar center of rotation for a set of points in a non-Euclidean plane.Comment: 29 pages, 12 figures; added calculations of planar center of rotation for edges and interior of an isosceles triangl
