A movement analysis of objects contained in visual scenes can be performed by means of linear multidimensional filters, which have already been analyzed in the past. While the soundness of the results was convincing, interest in those systems declined due to the limited computational power of contemporary computers. Recent advances in design and implementation of integrated circuits and hardwar...

In a globalized business landscape characterised by complex and evolving operational environments, " standing out from the crowd " is an important factor in effectively competing on the global stage. Despite greater resource constraints, Small and Medium sized enterprises (SMEs) are recognised for their agility and flexibility comparative to larger firms, and thus may be better positioned to ac...

We explore whether we can constrain the shape of the initial mass distribution of the star cluster population in M82's ∼ 1 Gyr-old post-starburst region " B " , in which the present-day cluster mass function (CMF) is closely approximated by a log-normal distribution. We conclude that the M82 B initial CMF must have had a mean mass very close to that of the " equilibrium " CMF of Vesperini (1998...
