Previous studies have proved that partial information transmission can be found between intensity and pitch. In our last study, it was demonstrated that the timbre attribute can be transmitted as partial information between timbre and intensity. We manipulated the two attributes of stimulus, namely, timbre (piano vs. violin) and pitch (high vs. low), to find out whether they also have partial i...

Based on the hypothesis that inconclusive research results with regard to the impact of games and simulations are linked to the absence of clear concept definitions, research was undertaken to fill this methodological gap by identifying the essential attributes of games and simulations. This paper first introduces the context for our study. This is followed by a description of the analysis grid...

Being able to capture, understand and respond to the needs and wants of the customers is essential to the survival and prosperity of an organisation. Some of the well known contemporary techniques and methodologies for analysing and processing the customer attributes and projecting the relevant product specifications. This paper begins with an overview of the essential roles, the changing empha...

cheese has high nutritional value in human health although is naturally poor in essential fatty acids. essential fatty acids revealed crucial roles in nutritional diet and have been suggested as disease prevention agent. protulaca oleracea (purslane) has considerable amounts of omega 3, 6 and 9 fatty acids as well as magnesium, potassium and vitamin c. the aim of this study is production and ch...

In many everyday situations, we bias our perception from the top down, based on a task or an agenda. Frequently, this entails shifting attention to a specific attribute of a particular object or scene. To explore the cost of shifting top-down attention to a different stimulus attribute, we adopt the task-set switching paradigm, in which switch trials are contrasted with repeat trials in mixed-t...

The present study investigates the statistical consequences of attribute misspecification in the rule space method for cognitively diagnostic measurement. The two types of attribute misspecifications examined in the present study are exclusion of an essential attribute (which affects problem-solving performance) and inclusion of a superfluous attribute (which does not). Results of a simulation ...

Over the past years software architecture has become an important sub-field of software engineering. There has been substantial advancement in developing new technical approaches to start handling architectural design as an engineering discipline. Measurement is an essential part of any engineering discipline. Quantifying the quality attributes of the software architecture will reveal good insi...

Web service monitoring tools have become an essential component for Service Level Agreement (SLA) because they can collect real quality values of quality attributes to estimate the quality level of services. Since users monitor more than one quality attribute at the same time, quality levels are prone to vary during monitoring time, producing a conflict among quality attributes. In this study, ...
