Abstract argumentation frameworks nowadays provide the most popular formalization of argumentation on a conceptual level. Numerous semantics for this paradigm have been proposed, whereby cf2 semantics has shown to nicely solve particular problems concernend with odd-length cycles in such frameworks. In order to compare different semantics not only on a theoretical basis, it is necessary to prov...

We present a two-dimensional model of ion implantation which accounts for position dependent lateral moments. The lateral standard deviation and the lateral kurtosis as a function of depth have been calculated by two-dimensional Monte Carlo simulations for boron, phosphorus, arsenic and antimony in silicon for energies in the range of 10 to 300 keV. The lateral moments as a function of depth an...

Microbial community diversity and chemodiversity were investigated in marine sediments adjacent to the Okinawan "Kaichu-Doro" Causeway, which was constructed 46 years ago to connect a group of four islands (Henza-jima, Miyagi-jima, Ikei-jima, Hamahiga-jima) to the Okinawan main island. This causeway was not built on pilings, but by land reclamation; hence, it now acts as a long, thin peninsula....

followership is a developing paradigm in organizational behavior which focusesmainly on followers. the goal of this study is to explore follower’s implicitfollowership theories (ifts) which entail an analysis of follower’s views andperception about followership. for this purpose, based on a phenomenologicalapproach, semi-structured interviews with employees of large public and privateorganizati...

This research on factors influencing verbal learning and retention has used new techniques, attacked new problems, and tested new thecties while trying to keep the experiments systematic. Studies conducted involved (1) the effect of varying the length cf the intertrial interval on the learning and retention of different types of learning tasks; (2) differences in recall between massed repetitio...

Due to improvements in computational resources, interest has recently increased in using implicit scheme for solving flow equations on 3D unstructured grids. However, most of the implicit schemes produce greater numerical diffusion error than their corresponding explicit schemes. This stems from the fact that in linearizing implicit fluxes, it is conventional to replace the Jacobian matrix in t...
