A system organized as a Hierarchy of Processor-And-Memory (HPAM) extends the familiar notion of memory hierarchy by including processors with diierent performance in diierent levels of the hierarchy. Tasks are assigned to diierent hierarchy levels according to their degree of parallelism. This paper studies the spatial locality (with respect to degree of parallelism) behavior of simulated paral...

the aim of this study was to use ahp method to rank the obstacles to improving professional ethics in sport media. in the first step, the existing obstacles were identified by review of literature, searching the authentic websites and finally interview with sport media experts. after this step, the hierarchy tree was portrayed to rank the obstacles and then the analytical hierarchy process (ahp...

It is evident from these course notes and their references that there is a tremendous interest in the general area of simplification of polygonal objects. There are several ways in which one can classify the various simplification techniques. One of these is by examining the nature of the performed simplifications. This section of the course will overview some representative techniques from a h...

The gradual behaviour of articulatory supralaryangeal variations as a function as an 8-level vs a 4-level prosodic hierarchy was analysed here. Comparisons between the results related to each hierarchy suggested that 4-level hierarchy was sufficient to account for prosodic-dependent articulatory changes in French. These results allowed to discuss the architecture of hierarchical prosodic repres...

Current information and communication technologies provide the infrastructure to transport bits anywhere, but do not indicate how to easily and precisely access and/or route information at the semantic level. To facilitate intelligent access to the rich multimedia data over the Internet, we develop an on-line knowledgeand rule-based video classification system that supports automatic ‘‘indexing...

We introduce two models of inclusion hierarchies: Random Graph Hierarchy (RGH) and Limited Random Graph Hierarchy (LRGH). In both models a set of nodes at a given hierarchy level is connected randomly, as in the Erdős-Rényi random graph, with a fixed average degree equal to a system parameter c. Clusters of the resulting network are treated as nodes at the next hierarchy level and they are conn...
