1. Prakken,; Formalizing Robert's Rules of Order An Experiment in Automating Mediation of Group Decision Making: Robert's Rules of Order are the standard procedure for deliberative societies of all kinds in the USA. This paper reports on an ongoing experiment: formalizing these rules for the purpose of implementing them as a procedural component of automated mediation systems for discussion and group decision making. Robert's Rules of Order have been chosen for this experiment because they are well-known, precisely formulated, and well-tested in practice. Although they need to be adapted for electronic applications, their formalization should nevertheless give useful insights into the problems and prospects of adding a procedural component to automated mediation systems. <p>The research is carried out in the context of the ZENO mediation system, developed at the GMD Bonn. One of ZENO's components is a WWW-accessible discussion forum. The aim of the ongoing experiment is to extend this forum with rules of order, and with a corresponding mudule that assists the human mediator in maintaining order at the forum, and in giving advice to the users of the forum on their options, rights and obligations in the discussion. This paper reports on the first part of the experiment, formalizing Robert's Rules of Order in first-order predicate logic. This formal specification should be the basis for a more operational specification, and for the eventual implementation as a component of ZENO. [Text] [View with Perseus links] (2.61)

2. Metcalf Digitization Project: This project revolves around the unique Zeno P. Metcalf card catalog and its literature collection on the insect order, Homoptera. It is taking on a virtual existence in collaboration with the Department of Entomology and the Special Collections department. Within the 5-year project plan under an NSF grant, 500,000 references will be searchable within a web-accessible database. The first year's achievements have included the creation of a relational database that now contains over 300 records from the author index, the digitization of over 1,200 journal titles unique to this collection, prototype development of the browser interface, and Boolean search capabilities. In conjunction with this work, the team scans many items such as color plates, journal articles, title pages, and illustrations within the collection [Text] [View with Perseus links] (1.36)

1. Audretsch, Jurgen, Mensky, Michael; Continuous Fuzzy Measurement of Energy for a Two-Level System: A continuous measurement of energy which is sharp (perfect) leads to the quantum Zeno effect (freezing of the state). Only if the quantum measurement is fuzzy, continuous monitoring gives a readout E(t) from which information about the dynamical development of the state vector of the system may be obtained in certain cases. This is studied in detail. Fuzziness is thereby introduced with the help of restricted path integrals equivalent to non-Hermitian Hamiltonians. For an otherwise undisturbed multilevel system it is shown that this measurement represents a model of decoherence. If it lasts long enough, the measurement readout discriminates between the energy levels and the von Neumann state reduction is obtained. For a two-level system under resonance influence (which undergoes in absence of measurement Rabi oscillations between the levels) different regimes of measurement are specified depending on its duration and fuzziness: 1) the Zeno regime where the measurement results in a freezing of the transitions between the levels and 2) the Rabi regime when the transitions maintain. It is shown that in the Rabi regime at the border to the Zeno regime a correlation exists between the time dependent measurement readout and the modified Rabi oscillations of the state of the measured system. Possible realizations of continuous fuzzy measurements of energy are sketched., Comment: 29 pages in LATEX, 1 figure in EPS, to be published in Physical Review A [Text] [View with Perseus links] (5.11)

2. Sidles, J. A.; The AC Stark, Stern-Gerlach, and Quantum Zeno Effects in Interferometric Qubit Readout: This article describes the AC Stark, Stern-Gerlach, and Quantum Zeno effects as they are manifested during continuous interferometric measurement of a two-state quantum system (qubit). A simple yet realistic model of the interferometric measurement process is presented, and solved to all orders of perturbation theory in the absence of thermal noise. The statistical properties of the interferometric Stern-Gerlach effect are described in terms of a Fokker-Plank equation, and a closed-form expression for the Green's function of this equation is obtained. Thermal noise is added in the form of a externally-applied Langevin force, and the combined effects of thermal noise and measurement are considered. Optical Bloch equations are obtained which describe the AC Stark and Quantum Zeno effects. Spontaneous qubit transitions are shown to be observationally equivalent to transitions induced by external Langevin forces. The effects of delayed choice are discussed. Practical experiments involving trapped ions are suggested. The results are relevant to the design of qubit readout systems in quantum computing, and to single-spin detection in magnetic resonance force microscopy., Comment: 17 pages, LaTeX2e, 3 figures in eps format, uses packages cite.sty and epsf.sty [Text] [View with Perseus links] (4.08)

3. Onofrio, Roberto, Presilla, Carlo, Tambini, Ubaldo; Quantum Zeno Effect with the Feynman-Mensky Path-Integral Approach: A model for quantum Zeno effect based upon an effective Schr\"odinger equation originated by the path-integral approach is developed and applied to a two-level system simultaneously stimulated by a resonant perturbation. It is shown that inhibition of stimulated transitions between the two levels appears as a consequence of the influence of the meter whenever measurements of energy, either continuous or pulsed, are performed at quantum level of sensitivity. The generality of this approach allows to qualitatively understand the inhibition of spontaneous transitions as the decay of unstable particles, originally presented as a paradox of quantum measurement theory., Comment: 8 pages, REVTeX 3.0 [Text] [View with Perseus links] (3.81)
