We have developed ProSÉ, a Protégé 4 plugin for Reusing Ontologies: Safe and Économique. This plug-in extends Protégé with the necessary features to support the underlying formalisms to reuse ontologies in a safe and economic way. Safety guarantees that the semantics of imported concepts is not changed and economic guarantees that only the relevant part of the ontology will be imported.

Capital allocation for credit portfolios has two meanings. First, at portfolio level it means to determine capital as a buffer against an unexpected negative cash-flow resulting from credit losses. In this case, the allocation method can be specified by means of a risk measure. Its result is called economic capital of the portfolio. Second, at sub-portfolio or transaction level, capital allocat...

When writing can change your life, when writing can enrich you by offering much money, why don't you try it? Are you still very confused of where getting the ideas? Do you still have no idea with what you are going to write? Now, you will need reading. A good writer is a good reader at once. You can define how you write depending on what books to read. This intelligent assistant systems concept...

Aggregate monotonicity of cooperative solutions is widely accepted as a desirable property, and examples where certain solution concepts (such as the nucleolus) violate this property are scarce and have no economic interpretation. We provide an example of a simple fourplayer game that points out at a class of economic contexts where aggregate monotonicity is not appealing.

Most theories of analogical transfer focus on similarities between the learning and transfer domains, where transfer is more likely between domains that share common surface features, similar elements, or common interpretations of structure. We suggest that characteristics of the learning instantiation alone can give rise to different levels of transfer. We propose that concreteness of the lear...

The effects of relevant concreteness on learning and transfer were investigated. Sixth grade students learned artificial instantiations of a simple mathematical concept. Some students were presented with instantiations that communicated concreteness relevant to the to-be-learned concept, while others learned generic instantiations involving abstract symbols. Results suggest that relevant concre...

This study demonstrates that an integrated operator can benefit from cost savings, customer retention and prevention of revenue erosion by FMC migration strategy with introduction of advanced service packages. This development is driven by increasing importance of mobile network capabilities and services, as well as the lessening gap between fixed and mobile systems, in terms of technological m...

We evoke some poetical aspects of a new kind of logical truth (an inner quantum truth) embodying both physical and mathematical concepts, which can be viewed at the same time as a constructive mathematical object, as well as a pure platonic idea.
