Software Maintenance Effort Estimation – Neural Network Vs Regression Modeling Approach
The global IT industry has now matured. As more and more systems grow old and enter into the maintenance stage, software maintenance (SM) is becoming one of the most carried out and challenging tasks. Besides, the industry is also facing a shift in traditional technical environment by way of use of newer tools and approaches of software development, migration from legacy software to current sof...
متن کاملHerbivory affects patterns of plant reproductive effort and seed production
Insect floral herbivory can dramatically reduce plant reproductive success. Thus, plants should have evolved mechanisms that minimize the effect of insect herbivores, particularly in monocarpic species that must maximize fitness in a single flowering year. Tolerance is one such mechanism; however, few experiments to date evaluate underlying mechanisms of plant tolerance under natural conditions...
متن کاملForce production during maximal effort bend sprinting: Theory vs reality.
This study investigated whether the "constant limb force" hypothesis can be applied to bend sprinting on an athletics track and to understand how force production influences performance on the bend compared with the straight. Force and three-dimensional video analyses were conducted on seven competitive athletes during maximal effort sprinting on the bend (radius 37.72 m) and straight. Left ste...
متن کاملLifetime reproductive effort in humans.
Lifetime reproductive effort (LRE) measures the total amount of metabolized energy diverted to reproduction during the lifespan. LRE captures key components of the life history and is particularly useful for describing and comparing the life histories of different organisms. Given a simple energetic production constraint, LRE is predicted to be similar in value for very different life histories...
متن کاملReproductive effort in viscous populations.
Here I study a kin selection model of reproductive effort, the allocation of resources to fecundity versus survival, in a patch-structured population. Breeding females remain in the same patch for life. Offspring have costly, partial long-distance dispersal and compete for breeding sites, which become vacant upon the death of previous occupants. The main result is that the evolutionarily stable...
