This book studies the technognomies of memory in scripto as in texts, lists, dictionaries and databases and less the technognomies of memory in vivo (as in remembering). There are of course some relations between these two kinds of memories, being memory-in-scripto a development parallel to the development of written language.

It is believed that neural activity evoked by cognitive tasks is spatially correlated in certain frequency bands. The electroencephalogram (EEG) is highly affected by noise of large amplitude which calls for sophisticated time local coherence estimation methods. In this paper we investigate different approaches to estimate time local coherence between two real valued signals. Our results indica

The research was guided by an underlying assumption that a markedly higher proportion of the energy generated from renewable sour

The aim of this chapter is to discuss two different approaches to the studying of cultures – the etic and the emic approaches. The two different approaches reflect not only different views on how cultures ought to be studied, but also to some extent different views on the nature of cultures.
