In this paper, we study the effect of period ratio and utilization of the tasks on the schedulability of rate monotonic (RM) in uni-processor systems with preemptive periodic or sporadic tasks. By quantifying this effect, we show that there exist other task sets (other than harmonic tasks in which each period is an integer multiple of the smaller periods) which are RM-friendly, i.e., they can b...

‎Let $mathcal{A}$ be a commutative Banach algebra and $mathscr{X}$ be a left Banach $mathcal{A}$-module‎. ‎We study the set‎ ‎${rm Dec}_{mathcal{A}}(mathscr{X})$ of all elements in $mathcal{A}$ which induce a decomposable multiplication operator on $mathscr{X}$‎. ‎In the case $mathscr{X}=mathcal{A}$‎, ‎${rm Dec}_{mathcal{A}}(mathcal{A})$ is the well-known Apostol algebra of $mathcal{A}$‎. ‎We s...

We develop an analytical framework to investigate the competitive implications of personalized pricing and quality allocation (PPQ), whereby rms charge di erent prices and o er di erent qualities to di erent consumers, based on their willingness to pay. We embed PPQ in a model of spatial di erentiation, and show how information about consumer preferences a ects multi-product rms' choices over p...

This paper rationalizes …rm’s motivation to build directed links with each other and formalizes the dynamic formation process that generates the observed network structure in the citation network. Random meeting of customers and …rms in the di¤erentiated goods market are unlikely to result in perfect match between demand and supply, but the …rm can earn commission fee by redirecting the custome...

The autocorrelation function and similarly the Fourier-power spectrum of a rotation measure (RM) map of an extended background radio source can be used to measure components of the magnetic autocorrelation and power-spectrum tensor within a foreground Faraday screen. It is possible to reconstruct the full non-helical part of this tensor in the case of an isotropic magnetic field distribution st...

Cross modal face matching between the thermal and visible spectrum is a much desired capability for night-time surveillance and security applications. Due to a very large modality gap, thermal-to-visible face recognition is one of the most challenging face matching problem. In this paper, we present an approach to bridge this modality gap by a significant margin. Our approach captures the highl...

The recreational use of androgenic anabolic steroids (AAS) has been associated with a range of health and psychological problems in the past, but very little research has considered what impact AAS might have upon cognition and memory. The present study aimed to identify whether the recreational use of AAS is linked to deficits in everyday retrospective memory (RM) and everyday prospective memo...
