In this paper, first we examine the usual treatment of temporal information and we recall the main features relative to the temporality analysis in texts. Then we deal with the formal representation of calendar expressions, and we provide a functional approach, based on a categorical representation of ordinals. Finally, an ongoing application providing a help for the reading of long biography i...

For several decades, Restoration studies have noted deficiencies in the treatment of the theology of leadership and of practical ecclesiology. This paper responds to the lack of research linking ecclesiology to organizational design and to the theology of leadership in the Church of Christ tradition by building upon the ecclesiological framework composed of theological tradition, church metapho...

In this note we use a functional approach to the integral to obtain a special case of the Keisler-Fubini theorem; the general case can be obtained with a similar proof. An immediate appUcation is the standard Fubini theorem for products of Radon measures. Similar methods give the Weil formula for quotient groups of compact Abelian groups.

In the history of adoption research, subjective norm mostly remains as the unloved child, being significant in this analysis and not significant in that analysis. Already Davis et al. had to exclude subjective norm of the Technology Acceptance Model due to theoretical and measurement problems. Overall the results of subjective norm as an antecedent for behavioral intention in IS research are qu...

Estimation of genetic variability and correlations between production traits (milk yield, fat content, protein content) selected type (angularity, fore udder height, rear front teat placement, length, depth) was done using data sets 10,860 first-calving Holstein-Friesian cows raised in the territory Republic Serbia. Genetic variance covariance were obtained Restricted Maximum Likelihood (REML) ...

This paper considers the problem of estimating fixed effects, random effects and variance components for the multi-variate random effects model with complete and incomplete data. It also considers making inference about the fixed and random effects, a problem which requires careful consideration of the choice of degrees of freedom to use in confidence intervals. This paper uses the EM algorithm...

ABSTRACT: The potential expression of crop productivity is a constant challenge for plant breeders in the face oscillations environmental variables, making selection difficult and increasing operational methodological costs obtaining ideal cultivar determined region. objective research was to investigate effects genotype x environment interaction cowpea lines with high grain yield, adaptability...
