The new challenges in data management have been referred to as Big Data. This term is related to an increasing number of applications characterized by generating data with a variety of types, huge volume, and by requiring high velocity processing. At the same time, cloud computing technologies are transforming the operational and economic aspects of computing, mainly due to the introduction of ...

The importance of collocations in the context of second language learning is generally acknowledged. Studies show that the “collocation density" in learner corpora is nearly the same as in native corpora, i.e., that use of collocations by learners is as common as it is by native speakers, while the collocation error rate in learner corpora is about ten times as high as in native reference corpo...

Abstract This study aims to describe the similarities and differences in collocation behavior semantic preferences between two synonymous Chinese verbs, hulüe (忽略) hushi (忽视). The data derives from Web 2017 (zhTenTen11) Simplified corpus Sketch Engine. applies both quantitative qualitative methodologies. results of research show that words often collocate with abstract nouns, adverbs, adjective...

This article provides an introduction to issues of coexistence between Bluetooth and WiFiTM (IEEE 802.1 1 b), with particular attention toscenarios requiring simultaneousoperation, or Sim-OPTM, of both s stems in very close proximiiy. The article explains basic interference mechanisms an cy quantifies their impact through both actual measurements and simulation. W e have developed a detailed si...

In Italy the history of General Hospital Psychiatric Units (GHPUs) is a recent one, beginning in 1978 with the approval of the reform law, Law 180; before that time there were very few psychiatric wards located within general hospitals. A psychiatric ward was set up in the Ospedale Maggiore in Milan back in 1852, and in 1963, in the same hospital, a new psychiatric ward, called Guardia II, was ...

This paper presents some of the theoretical considerations which have arisen from the author’s learner corpus research over the past couple of years (Philip, 2005a, 2005b, 2006, 2007, in press). In particular, it highlights a mismatch between the language of native speakers and that of learners, not simply at the textual level, but at a more abstract, conceptual level. The findings of this exte...

We describe our attempts to formulate a pragmatic definition and a partial typology of the lexical category of ’collocation’ taking both lexicographical and computational aspects into consideration. This provides a suitable basis for encoding collocations in an NLP-lexicon. Further, this paper explains the principles of an operational encoding strategy which is applied to a core section of the ...

This project aims to investigate the quality of ASCAT measurements as well as their use for oceanographic purposes. The accuracy of ASCAT retrievals will be mainly based on the use of collocated data from moored buoys, numerical weather prediction models, and satellites. The resulting collocated data will be used to explore the accuracy of the geophysical model function which relates the backsc...
