Bayes factors have been ooered by Bayesians as alternatives to P-values (or significance probabilities) for testing hypotheses and for quantifying the degree to which observed data support or connict with a hypothesis. Schervish (1996) showed how the interpretation of P-values as measures of support suuers a certain logical aw. In this paper, we show how Bayes factors suuer that same aw. We inv...

machinery is also identified in spines, within specialized subdomains (88, 102). In addition, polyribosomes and protein translational machinery are often anchored at the base of spines (80). Thus increasing evidence suggests that individual spines represent partially autonomous compartments, having their own regulated membrane-trafficking events that shuttle components into and out of the spine...

Copyright of e-Education material is valuable. The need for protecting it is prominent. In the past two years, we have developed an infrastructure called e-Course eXchange (eCX ) for protecting the copyrights of e-Courses, right from its development phase to its delivery phase. It has been adopted by an education institute, with a user-base of over 70,000 students, and has been receiving positi...

Optimal resource allocation in security has been a significant challenge for critical infrastructure protection. Numerous studies use game theory as the method of choice, because of the fact that an attacker can often observe the defender’s investment in security and adapt his choice of strategies accordingly. However, most of these models do not explicitly consider deterrence, with the result ...

The protection of critical infrastructures, such as electrical power grids, has become a primary concern of many nation states in recent years. Critical infrastructures involve multi-dimensional, highly complex collections of technologies, processes, and people, and as such, are vulnerable to potentially catastrophic failures on many levels. Moreover, cross-infrastructure dependencies can give ...

The high costs for the management of the modern and complex industrial control systems make it necessary to enhance the current maintenance processes. Therefore, the need arises to clearly define the goals of the maintenance, in order to evolve and continuously enhance the management methods, to efficiently integrate the maintenance activities with the ones related to the production, the servic...

The use of corpora in translation, teaching, and academic writing has been increasing significantly over the last years. Do-it-yourself (DIY) are particularly useful to those areas. This paper presents a theoretical review discusses DIY language writing. Evidence shows that, with aid computational tools, provide translators better options for translating texts extracting terminology. At same ti...
