Anumber of prominent artificial intelligence (AI) researchers and commentators (Moravec 1999a; Solomonoff 1985; Vinge 1993) have presented versions of the following argument: 1. Continued exponential improvement in computer hardware will deliver inexpensive processing power exceeding that of the human brain within the next several decades. 2. If human-level processing power were inexpensive, th...

A reaction route accounting for the formation of levulinic acid from 5hydroxymethylfuran-2-carbaldehyde was deduced on the basis of the mechanism previously offered by Horvat, to match the steps with more details. A newly deduced reaction route was proposed between two intermediate products within this mechanism, and the probabilities of the two mechanisms were compared by Gaussian 03 software....

The V-model represents a software development process (also applicable to hardware development) which may be considered an extension of the waterfall model. Instead of moving dow n in a linear w ay, the process steps are bent upwards after the coding phase, to form the typical V shape. The V-Model demonstrates the relationship between each phase of the development life cycle and its associated ...

In this work was performed a Monte Carlo Simulation for a mathematics model to experimental planning of Taguchi. The software has enabled an upgrading of the variables planning value of 54,26% of TOC, 53,28% of DQO and 6,58% of Total Phenols, that feature the importance of the method for the experimental optimizations, and thereafter reduction of experiments to be realized in the job first step.
