Assessing the relative priority of projects

Where there are a large number of projects competing for a limited pool of resources, projects have to be assigned priorities to determine which should proceed and which should be curtailed. The traditional economic procedures for assessing the relative priority of projects are reviewed, and alternative methods of ranking projects are suggested, with particular emphasis on methods that are inexpensive and easy to use.     

A Standard Model-Theoretic Approach to Operational Semantics of Recursive Programs

In this paper we try to introduce a new approach to operational semantics of recursive programsby using ideas in the“priority method”which is a fundamental tool in Recursion Theory.In lieu ofmodelling partial functions by introducing undefined values in a traditional approach,we shall define apriority derivation tree for every term,and by respecting the rule“attacking the subterm of thehighest priority first”we define transition relations,computation sequences etc.directly based on astandard interpretation which includes no undefined value in its domain.Finally,we prove that ournew approach generates the same operational semantics as the traditional one.It is also pointed outthat we can use our strategy to refute a claim of Loeckx and Sieber that the opperational semanticsof recursive programs cannot be built based on predicate logic.

Contextual cues aid recovery from interruption: The role of associative activation.

A series of experiments introduced interruptions to the execution phase of simple Tower of London problems and found that the opportunity for preparation before the break in task reduced the time cost at resumption. Retrieval of the suspended goal was facilitated when participants were given the opportunity to encode retrieval cues during an "interruption lag" (the brief time before engaging in the interrupting task) but was impeded when these visual cues were subsequently altered following interruption. The results provide useful support for the goal-activation model (E. M. Altmann & G. J. Trafton, 2002), which assumes that context--at the points of both goal suspension and goal retrieval--is critical to efficient interruption recovery.

DiffServ中基于优先级的队列调度算法

为了提高DWRR算法的时延性能及应对突发流的能力,文中结合比例时延区分服务模型,在DWRR算法的基础上提出了一种能够体现优先级的队列调度算法-PDDRR。该算法的控制目标是保证各业务流的平均排队时延在无突发业务流时维持在给定的比率,而在应对突发流时忽略时延的比例公平原则,根据网络实时负载动态地调整各队列的权值,合理地分配资源。仿真结果表明,算法不仅能实现不同优先级业务的时延区分,而且在业务流突发时为各等级业务提供服务质量保证。     

DETECTOR: A knowledge-based system for injection molding diagnostics

A knowledge-based system (KBS) for diagnosis of multiple defects in injection molding is presented. The general scheme for knowledge representation based on fuzzy set theory has been shown useful in representing inexact and incomplete information for developing the KBS. An optimality criterion is created for selecting a simple and best cover to explain the given problem. An efficient search algorithm for finding such cover is also discussed.     

Parallel heap: An optimal parallel priority queue

We describe a new parallel data structure, namely parallel heap, for exclusive-read exclusive-write parallel random access machines. To our knowledge, it is the first such data structure to efficiently implement a truly parallel priority queue based on a heap structure. Employing p processors, the parallel heap allows deletions of (p) highest priority items and insertions of (p) new items, each in O(log n) time, where n is the size of the parallel heap. Furthermore, it can efficiently utilize processors in the range 1 through n.This work was supported by U.S. Army's PM-TRADE contract N61339-88-g-0002, Florida High Technology and Industry grant 11-28-716, and Georgia State University's internal research support during spring and summer quarters, 1991.     

对“一业为主、多种经营”的三点认识

浦市化工总厂１５年多种经营的体会有三条：由于中小矿山规模小、交通不便，从事多种经营既是自身生存发展的必由之路，又要着眼于填补市场空白，不断优化产品结构，开发新产品的同时必须狠抓经营管理；不断完善规章制度。面对变化、竞争的市场，缺乏足够的产品开发资金和快速反应的机制，还有一些其他不利因素，必须由国家采取调控手段才能加以解决。     

Effects of Enantiomeric Blend of Verbenone on Response ofIps paraconfusus to Naturally Produced Aggregation Pheromone in the Laboratory

The aggregation pheromone produced by maleIps paraconfusus (Coleoptera: Scolytidae) tunneling in Monterey pine,Pinus radiata, logs was trapped on Porapak Q. A concentration of an extract of trapped volatiles that attracted beetles was determined in the laboratory through a concentration–response analysis of walking behavior of males and females. The interruptant effects of four concentrations of verbenone on response to a constant concentration of this naturally produced aggregation pheromone were tested with males and females. Independent of its enantiomeric composition [99.5% (S)-(–), 93.1 % (S)-(–), and 98.3% (R)-(+)], verbenone significantly reduced the percentage of females (but not males) reaching the attractant source. However, when the time required for beetles of both sexes taken together to reach the attractant source was considered, verbenone of higher enantiomeric purity had a greater effect on beetle behavior. Solutions of 99.5% (S)-(–)- and 98.3% (R)-(+)-verbenone increased the time required for beetles to reach the attractive source when compared to 93.1% (S)-(–)-verbenone. When pooled across enantiomeric blends, increasing concentrations of verbenone resulted in slower responses in beetles that reached the attractant source within 2 min. Males and females did not respond to verbenone alone.
