Thank you for that word, anyway
Drunya May 31, 2005:
I guess what matters is not whether I think it applies (I still hope it does), but that some English-speakers raise their eyebrows at this variant. If two natives agreed with Andrey's suggestion, it must be a reason enough to go on with it.

there have only been isolated results published in the litterature

Отдельный = единичный

Others have already developed a comprehensive theory to describe large deviations of traffic flows, under the large buffer limiting regime, in which the buffer size of a router increases. Under the many flows limiting regime, however, ***there have only been isolated results***: so I first develop a full theory for this regime. Formally speaking, I establish a Large Deviations Principle for random processes under the many flows regime.

disagree Dorene Cornwell : anecdotal? Where does anecdotal come from here?

Occasional, episodic - come, isn't it synonymous?
agree Martinique : Наших бьют :))) Нисколько не умаляя достоинств всех остальных ответов, хочу сказать, что амер. медики именно этим словом -- anecdotal -- подчеркивают разрозненность, малочисленность и случайность литературных данных; я встречаюсь с ним очень часто

Это ж бьют разве - так, журят слегка. Вообще, интересно, что кому-то anecdotal может показаться шибко неверным. А так - спасибо за поддержку, я уж думал -- с ума схожу...
agree sergey (X) : When used in a medical context, it does not mean a funny story. It means a single case report not yet substantiated by studies using large numbers of people.

True enough, but should the context necessarily be medical? I wasn't aware I'm that spoilt with medicine :-(
