In present scenario almost every system and working is computerized and hence all information and data are being stored in Computers. Huge collections of data are emerging. Retrieval of untouched, hidden and important information from this huge data is quite tedious work. Data Mining is a great technological solution which extracts untouched, hidden and important information from vast databases...

Architectural patterns are a key concept in the field of software architecture: they offer well-established solutions to architectural problems, help to document the architectural design decisions, facilitate communication between stakeholders through a common vocabulary, and describe the quality attributes of a software system as forces. Regrettably, finding and applying the appropriate archit...

How do infants learn the sound patterns of their native language? By the end of the 1st year, infants have acquired detailed aspects of the phonology and phonotactics of their input language. However, the structure of the learning mechanisms underlying this process is largely unknown. In this study, 9-month-old infants were given the opportunity to induce specific phonological patterns in 3 exp...

The different mobile wireless communication systems that are currently available adopt common solutions for dealing with recurring mobility management problems associated with similar architectural elements. This work extracts and documents patterns that identify such common problems and solutions among second generation systems, for example, GSM-900 and D-AMPS. These patterns are grouped into ...

Micro-kernels are diicult to port to a new hardware platform. During the initial phases of a port, much time and eeort is lost on debugging critical machine-dependent subsystems. These subsystems are generally very tightly coupled and cannot be tested in an incremental fashion. Tight coupling occurs because the subsystems share many global variables forcing them to be debugged with the complete...

Chaotic dynamical systems characteristically exhibit erratic, seemingly random, behavior. They are highly sensitive to initial conditions. Any alteration to the state of a chaotic system will eventually lead to very large differences in behavior. Until recently, the preferred approach to chaotic dynamical systems has been to avoid them. A method developed by Ott, Grebogi, and Yorke (OGY) takes ...

A pattern recognition algorithm is described that learns a transition net grammar from positive examples. Two sets of examples-one in English and one in Chinese-are presented. It is hoped that language learning will reduce the knowledge acquisition effort for expert systems and make the natural language interface to database systems more transportable. The algorithm presented makes a step in th...

This document contains a brief presentation of the PRESEMT project that aims in the development of a novel language-independent methodology for the creation of a flexible and adaptable MT system.

To increase productivity and product quality in software development, companies invest in qualification of their engineers, improvement of their development processes and many other approaches. We believe that in addition a much more powerful way to go in the above direction is to try new complementary organizational forms of how people work together. Specifically the network form seems to fit ...
