this paper aims at determining isfahan provincial industries orientation as well as relating the comparative advantage indexes and their changes with the province’s industrial characteristics. therefore, applying “factor analysis”, “principal components analysis” and “numerical taxonomy analysis” methods, the paper calculates the determining indexes of the province’s industrial development and ...

The goal of this paper is twofold. The first goal is to incorporate spatial structure within shift-share analysis, to take into account interregional interaction in the decomposition analysis. Secondly, this paper develops a taxonomy of regional growth rate decompositions. A taxonomy of the spatial structure is presented; it comprises twenty alternative decomposition structures, including the o...

This study intends to evaluate Interchange series (2005), which are still fundamental coursebooks in the EFL curriculum settings, in terms of learning objectives in Bloom’s Revised Taxonomy (2001) to see which levels of Bloom's Revised Taxonomy were more emphasized in these coursebooks. For this purpose, the contents of Interchange textbooks were codified based on a coding scheme designed by th...

A taxonomy of cryptographic protocol attacks is helpful for cryptographic protocol analysis. There are taxonomies of cryptographic protocol awss5, 9] and a taxonomy of replay attacks in terms of message origin and destinationn25]. This paper presents an attack taxonomy based on an intruder's objectives when launching attacks and the roles s/he plays. Understanding an intruder's possible behavio...

This paper describes a validation experiment of a quantitative approach to the modularization of object oriented systems. The approach used is based on Cluster Analysis, a statistical technique used in many fields of science to group items. Here, the clusters are modules and the items are classes. A sample of some relatively large object oriented systems was used in this experiment. The calcula...

This paper presents a usage analysis and taxonomy of methods which are used to evaluate the usability of computer systems. To accommodate the analysis and taxonomy, a matrix of strategies which can be used for effective usability evaluation is presented. Such an analysis, taxonomy and strategies support human-computer interaction (HCI) professionals who have the responsibility for ensuring comp...
