	Column Summary
		Columns are frequently used to support beams or arches on which the upper parts of walls or ceilings rest.
		In the architecture of ancient Egypt as early as 2600 BC the architect Imhotep made use of stone columns whose surface was carved to reflect the organic form of bundled reeds; in later Egyptian architecture faceted cylinders were also common.
		The design of most columns incorporates entasis; a planned reduction in diameter along the height of the column, so that the top is as little as 83% of the bottom diameter.

		For example, to resolve the combination of possible ambiguities, row and column sync codes suitably are selected to be distinct or to at least provide a different phase shift along the code as referenced from sync line intersections.
		An alternate approach to disambiguation would be to use an asymmetric spatial patterns for the sync code.
		In this event, the sync code is used in a feed forward mode to reorder and correct the decode values as may be required to compensate for decode errors, such as additions, dropouts and shearing of data.

		Thus to disambiguate `pen' and `paper' in the phrase "the pen and paper" relative to the Merriam-Webster Compact Electronic Dictionary we choose sense three of `pen' ("tool for writing with ink"), and sense one of `paper' ("pliable substance used to write or print on, to wrap things in, or to cover walls").

	New feature of multiword dictionary entries
		We find this is especially important for research on political or organizational documents where multiword noun strings (for example, "Sierra Club", "Millennium Dome") may be grouped into categories, as well as for adding the idioms of a particular topic area (for example, "hard drive") or idiomatic language of a subculture ("Give me five").
		When we once tried to teach writing disambiguation rules in a semester seminar, we found that most students do not relate well to having to produce perfectly correct complex syntactic forms, although a few do thrive on it.
		If a multiword entry is being added to a word that is disambiguated, then it should come before the first sense number in order to conform to the sort ordering.

	Modeling for Scalability - Ascending into Automatic Genome Sequencing
		While a hypothetically correct column determines a transient state of the inference, where special symbols may still be included to indicate working hypotheses about the future solution, a pragmatically correct column has all such hypotheses either proved or rejected ending with a definite base sequence.
		Abstraction of the primary fault column has to be done immediately, because based on its appearance the decision is made whether to accept or reject (and pass to the expert) the case.
		In the case of complex fault models with their reach of potentially infinitely many columns interference with the inferences determining the breadth of the fault region, Experiences have to be collected for a fine tuning of these scaling parameters.

		The word sense disambiguation algorithm is straightforward.Given an occurrence of the target word in the text we collect the words in its context, and for each word sense we retrieve the \Delta 2values for the context words in the corresponding topic signature.
		The results for the signature and hierarchy combination are shown according to the sense-distinctions: the finecolumn shows the results using the hierarchy for the finest sense distinctions, the medium column corresponds to the medium sizedclusters, and the coarse level corresponds to the coarsest clusters, i.e., all senses clustered in two groups.
		We chose to evaluate the performance of the clustersin a word sense disambiguation task, showing that the clusters are useful to improve the results; enhanced precision for the fine-levelsense distinctions, and over 90% precision for the coarse level.
