Castianeira tinae Patel & Patel 1973
Castianeira tinae Patel & Patel, 1973 Castianeira Tinae Patel & Patel, 1973: 6, fig. 3a–g (♂ ♀). Castianeira tinae: Feng, 1990: 173, fig. 148.1–4 (not ♂, ♀); Majumder & Tikader, 1991: 140, figs 292–296 (♀). Remarks. This species was described based on male and female specimens collected from Vallabh Vidhyanagar (22 o 32’51.56’’N, 72 o 55’30.50’’E; 41 m alt) in Gujarat. The type material of this species was not examined as it is not deposited in NZC-ZSI. It is noteworthy that Patel and Patel (1973) provided no repository information for this species. The original illustrations, even though they are highly schematic, provide hints regarding similarity of this species with Castianeira zetes Simon, 1897, particularly the shape and orientation of the embolus, and outline of the epigyne. The male pedipalp of this species illustrated in Feng (1990: figs 148.3–4) is, however, not of a Castianeira species, but is of Corinnomma severum (Thorell, 1887) (cf. Feng 1990: fig. 148.3 and Deeleman-Reinhold 2001: fig. 469). The subsequent illustrations of the epigyne of C. tinae (Feng 1990: fig. 148.1–2; Majumder & Tikader 1991: figs 293–294) also indicate its resemblance to C. zetes. However, its synonymy with C. zetes can only be confirmed after examining the type specimen of the species.Published as part of Sankaran, Pradeep M., Caleb, John T.

Theory of deferred action: Agent-based simulation model for designing complex adaptive systems
Deferred action is the axiom that agents act in emergent organisation to achieve predetermined goals. Enabling deferred action in designed artificial complex adaptive systems like business organisations and IS is problematical. Emergence is an intractable problem for designers because it cannot be predicted. We develop proof-of-concept, conceptual proto-agent model, of emergent organisation and emergent IS to understand better design principles to enable deferred action as a mechanism for coping with emergence in artefacts. We focus on understanding the effect of emergence when designing artificial complex adaptive systems by developing an exploratory proto-agent model and evaluate its suitability for implementation as agent-based simulation
