Island area and remoteness shape plant and soil bacterial diversity through land use and biological invasion by Xu, Mingshan, Yang, Anna, Yang, Xiaodong, Cao, Wenting, Zhang, Zengke, Li, Zengyan, Zhang, Yu, Zhang, Huaguo, You, Wenhui, Yan, En-Rong, Wardle, David A.

“…As expected we found that increasing island area directly promoted plant diversity. However, land use intensity increased with island area which also promoted plant diversity, and loss of pine forest by the pinewood nematode invasion increased with island remoteness which reduced plant diversity. …”

Functional area lower bound and upper bound on multicomponent selection for interval scheduling by Shen, Zhao Xuan, Jong, Ching Chuen

“…Opposite to the previous methods, we compute, in this paper, the lower/upper bounds which consider scheduling and component selection simultaneously. A new problem of multicomponent selection integrated with interval scheduling is studied.We present a very interesting and important result that both the lower bound and upper bound of multicomponent selection are obtained on the most cost-effective components which have the minimum area-delay products. …”
