Most information retrieval (IR) systems consider relevance, usefulness, and quality of information objects (documents, queries) for evaluation, prediction, and recommendation, often ignoring the underlying search process of information seeking. This may leave out opportunities for making recommendations that analyze the search process and/or recommend alternative search process instead of objec...

Ž . This work investigates the use of a recently developed direct neural network NN multivariable predictive controller applied to a grinding plant. The NN controller is trained so that an estimation of the control error several steps ahead is minimized, which are given by a properly designed NN called predictor. An NN, which identifies the plant, is used to backpropagate the control error at p...

There exists a wide range of paradigms, and a high number of different methodologies that are applied to the problem of time series prediction. Most of them are presented as a modified function approximation problem using input/output data, in which the input data are expanded using values of the series at previous steps. Thus, the model obtained normally predicts the value of the series at a t...

The optimistic latency of Byzantine Paxos can be reduced from three communication steps to two, without using public-key cryptography. This is done by making a decision when more than (n + 3f)/2 acceptors report to have received the same proposal from the leader, with n being the total number of acceptors and f the number of the faulty ones. No further improvement in latency is possible, becaus...

Mercury is a metal found in elemental, organic, and inorganic forms in the nature. This substance is present in the composition of earth crust, soil, air, and even in some tissues of plants and sea animals. Each year nearly 3400 tons of mercury compounds are released in the environment, which 95% settle in the soil, 3% in the oceans, and 2% in the atmosphere. Different industrial products li...

Although advancements have been made in the management of projects due to digitalization and automation technologies, efficient use digital data is still lacking for coordination supply chain. This paper presents an approach that allows data-driven schedule-oriented chain face demand fluctuations. The consists two main steps contractors should take: 1) monitor fluctuations based on a 4D model c...
