TL;DR: The results show that an eye tracker can be used as a fast selection device providing that the target size is not too small and if the targets are small speed declines and errors increase rapidly.
Abstract: Since humans direct their visual attention by means of eye movements, a device which monitors eye movements should be a natural “pick” device for selecting objects visually present on a monitor. The results from an experimental investigation of an eye tracker as a computer input device are presented. Three different methods were used to select the object looked at; these were a button press, prolonged fixation or “dwell” and an on screen select button. The results show that an eye tracker can be used as a fast selection device providing that the target size is not too small. If the targets are small speed declines and errors increase rapidly.

TL;DR: The Rural Postman Problem (RPP) is reviewed and applications are organized as follows: Applications, the Undirected R PP, the Directed RPP, the Stacker Crane problem, the Capacitated Arc Routing Problem.
Abstract: This is the second half of a two-part survey on arc routing problems. The first part appeared in the March-April 1995 issue of this journal. Here, the rural postman problem RPP is reviewed. The paper is organized as follows: applications, the undirected RPP, the directed RPP, the stacker crane problem, and the capacitated arc routing problem.

TL;DR: Draft genome and transcriptome data from the basally diverging alga Cyanophora paradoxa are analyzed and provide evidence for a single origin of the primary plastid in the eukaryote supergroup Plantae.
Abstract: The primary endosymbiotic origin of the plastid in eukaryotes more than 1 billion years ago led to the evolution of algae and plants. We analyzed draft genome and transcriptome data from the basally diverging alga Cyanophora paradoxa and provide evidence for a single origin of the primary plastid in the eukaryote supergroup Plantae. C. paradoxa retains ancestral features of starch biosynthesis, fermentation, and plastid protein translocation common to plants and algae but lacks typical eukaryotic light-harvesting complex proteins. Traces of an ancient link to parasites such as Chlamydiae were found in the genomes of C. paradoxa and other Plantae. Apparently, Chlamydia-like bacteria donated genes that allow export of photosynthate from the plastid and its polymerization into storage polysaccharide in the cytosol.
