The possibility that the mass hierarchy is intimately associated with the compositeness level of the matters is proposed in supersymmetric gauge theory. This implies, for instance, that the preons constituting top quark consists of the “prepreons” binded by the same gauge force making the charm quark out of another preons. The exemplifying toy model illustrates how the hierarchy in the yukawa c...

This paper revisits the data–information–knowledge–wisdom (DIKW) hierarchy by examining the articulation of the hierarchy in a number of widely read textbooks, and analysing their statements about the nature of data, information, knowledge, and wisdom. The hierarchy referred to variously as the ‘Knowledge Hierarchy’, the ‘Information Hierarchy’ and the ‘Knowledge Pyramid’ is one of the fundamen...

population growth, industrial pollution and high-energy consumption, cause the release of significant amounts of pollutants in the environment. power plants play an important role in the release of pollutants such as sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and carbon dioxide. if the necessary measures in the field of prevention and control do not be implemented, human health and other living creatures...

focus on political, economic, cultural city of kermanshah, the reasons for moving to the city, and consequently, it is natural population growth. this part of the urban hierarchy rule out - as far and despite the high potential for job creation in the province are because of the unbalanced distribution of population, the potential of the whole province is not to be used, so that today we face t...

‎in this paper, we present a two-stage model for ranking of decision making units (dmus) using interval analytic hierarchy process (ahp). since the efficiency score of unity is assigned to the efficient units, we evaluate the efficiency of each dmu by basic dea models and calculate the weights of the criteria using proposed model. in the first stage, the proposed model evaluates decision making...

Visibility culling of a scene is a crucial stage for interactive graphics applications, particularly for scenes with thousands of objects. The culling time must be small for it to be effective. A hierarchical representation of the scene is used for efficient culling tests. However, when there are multiple view frustums (as in a tiled display wall), visibility culling time becomes substantial an...

Using the determinant representation of gauge transformation operator, we have shown that the general form of τ function of the q-KP hierarchy is a q-deformed generalized Wronskian, which includes the q-deformed Wronskian as a special case. On the basis of these, we study the q-deformed constrained KP (q-cKP) hierarchy, i.e. l-constraints of q-KP hierarchy. Similar to the ordinary constrained K...

Integrating a geographic information system and multi-criteria decision making methods have been lead to provide spatial multi-criteria decision making methods. In this study, the spatial potential of flooding was determined based on analytic network process and analytic hierarchy process. At first, six factors of flooding were determined as criteria. The criteria were the slope, hill-slope asp...
