	Exclusive disjunction - Encyclopedia.WorldSearch (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Exclusive disjunction (usual symbol xor) is a logical operator that results in true if one of the operands (not both) is true.
		Exclusive disjunction is the sense of the word or as in the proverb you can have your cake or eat it (but not both).
		The exclusive disjunction of propositions A and B is usually called A xor B, where "xor" stands for "exclusive or" and is pronounced "eks-or" or "zor".

	Disjunction
		q is the disjunction of p and q, and is pronounced as ‘pea vel queue’ or ‘pea vee queue’ or ‘pea or queue’.
		In this case, p and q are the disjuncts of the disjunction.
		Since the negation of a 0110 disjunction is a 1110 disjunction (either both disjuncts are true or both disjuncts are false), this use of aut cannot be a 0110 disjunctive use.

	Disjunction
		Disjunction is a binary truth-function, the output of which is a sentence true if at least one of the input sentences (disjuncts) is true, and false otherwise.
		A disjunction is a kind of compound sentence historically associated by English-speaking logicians and their students with indicative sentences compounded with either...
		This truth-function is referred to variously as exclusive disjunction, as 0110 disjunction (after the succession of values in its main column), and as logical difference.

		There's a sense of evolution, of biological growth, in the way the tracks build, with each musical element layered one-by-one on top of each other, and a sense of playfulness and curiosity in the way that those layers are then added or subtracted as the music continues.

	26 Disjunction
		Rephrasing a hypothetical in disjunctive form allows us to conceal the negative polarity of the antitheses involved, so that the statement is made purely in terms of theses.
		We could assign to the disjunctive form 'Either P or Q' this specific meaning, comprising both incompatibility and exhaustiveness of P and Q. The proposition 'Either nonP or nonQ' is equivalent, note well.
		However, normally, subjunctions and disjunctions are contrary to each other and not combinable; this applies to formal logic, where the theses and antitheses are all granted the status of logical contingency, as in the theory of opposition.

	The three rows gene of Drosophila melanogaster encodes a novel protein that is required for chromosome disjunction ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The three rows gene of Drosophila melanogaster encodes a novel protein that is required for chromosome disjunction during mitosis.Mitotic defects in thr mutant embryos begin during mitosis 15, and all subsequent divisions are disrupted.
		Chromosome disjunction and consequently cytokinesis fail during these defective mitoses, although the initial mitotic processes (chromosome condensation, spindle assembly, metaphase plate formation, and cyclin degradation) are not affected.
		These observations, together with the observation that the zygotic phenotype of thr mutant embryos is influenced by the maternal genotype, suggest that the embryonic phenotype results from exhaustion of the maternal thr contribution and does not reflect a developmentally restricted requirement for thr function.

		Homologue disjunction in mouse oocytes requires proteolysis of securin and cyclin B1.It is not clear which model best fits the mammalian system.

		Disjunction of pairs of homologous chromosomes during the first meiotic division (MI) requires anaphase-promoting complex (APC)-mediated activation of separase in budding yeast and Caenorhabditis elegans, but not Xenopus laevis.

	disjunction semantics (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Disjunctions are like conjunctions: they are built up out of two smaller parts.
		So to figure out the truth-and-falsehood behavior of disjunctions, we can just think about when an ‘or’ sentence in English would be true, and when it would be false.
		The Disjunction Rule says that a disjunction is only false when both the parts are false.

		The reasoning for removing it is quite simple: it is difficult to implement (lots of code at many different places), and frankly it is not worth the effort in most cases.
		The idea of constructive disjunction to lift information common to disjunctive branches is also typically used in propagation algorithms, so it is clearly an idea important to know about.

		The need for disjunction of properties arises when a single precondition obligates at least one of several consequents.
		In my opinion, the need for general (non-deterministic, non-exclusive) property disjunction is less than the need for property conjunction and "if-else" combination of properties.
		However, this proposal is needed if both the proposals on property conjunction and property negation pass, since they will enable the user to derive property disjunction in the usual way p1 or p2 \equiv not((not p1) and (not p2)) In that case, the current proposal gives the more convenient syntax of the lefthand side.

	Conjunction, Negation, and Disjunction
		The logical operations of conjunction, negation, and disjunction (alteration) are discussed with respect to their truth-table definitions.
		Disjunction (or as it is sometimes called, alternation) is a connective which forms compound propositions which are false only if both statements (disjuncts) are false.
		The connective "or" in English is quite different from disjunction.

	Non-disjunction of chromosome 18 -- Bugge et al. 7 (4): 661 -- Human Molecular Genetics
		It increases with maternal age and has been hypothesized to involve two steps: an unfavourable chiasma distribution at diplotene in fetal life followed by age-dependent deterioration of the mechanism for meiotic disjunction, which is most severe for tetrads with susceptible distributions of chiasmata (4).
		It leads to normal disjunction and is the rule in the species where it occurs, demonstrating a mechanism for regular disjunction that does not depend on crossing over.
		For chromosome 18 we have examined the frequency of normal disjunction from nullichiasmate tetrads by reconstruction of the chiasma distribution from crossovers in normal meiosis and compare this with the distribution from transitions in non-disjunction.

		Architecture and Disjunction, which brings together Tschumi's essays from 1975 to 1990, is a lucid and provocative analysis of many of the key issues that have engaged architectural discourse over the past two decades -- from deconstructive theory to recent concerns with the notions of event and program.
		Instead of "form and function", he proposes an architecture based on "space, event and movement", in which the conflit and contradictions between the terms of the equation is its most relevant aspect.
		"Architecture and disjunction" is a Pandora's Box -- some of the questions it proposes are painful and disturbing (like "what is space?", for instance), but have been overlooked long enough.
