Clustering of large collections of text documents is a key process in providing a higher level of knowledge about the underlying inherent classification of the documents. Web documents, in particular, are of great interest since managing, accessing, searching, and browsing large repositories of web content requires efficient organization. Incremental clustering algorithms are always preferred t...

Ternary Content-Addressable Memories (TCAMs) provide a fast mechanism for IP lookups and a simple management for route updates. The high power consumption problem can be resolved by providing a TCAM partitioning technique that selectively addresses smaller portions of a TCAM. This paper proposes a 2-level TCAM architecture using prefix comparison rule to partition the routing table into a numbe...

Given that the vast majority of Internet interactions relate to content access and delivery, recent research has pointed to a potential paradigm shift from the current host-centric Internet model to an information-centric one. In information-centric networks, named content is accessed directly, with the best content copy delivered to the requesting user given content caching within the network....

The objective of this study is to introduce the concept of Economic Value Added (EVA) in the Greek context and to provide an explanation on the utilization of both earnings and EVAin the ASE. The study interprets results obtained from an analysis carried out on the basis of secondary financial data relating to the period 1995-2001. Proponents of EVA provided evidence to establish this method as...

Archetypes model individual EHR contents and build the basis of the dual-model approach used in the ISO/EN 13606 EHR architecture. We present an approach to create archetypes using an iterative development process. It includes automated generation of electronic case report forms from archetypes. We evaluated our approach by developing 128 archetypes which represent 446 clinical information item...

Two-point incremental forming method is considered a modern technique for manufacturing shell parts. The presence of bottom punch during the process makes this technique far more complex than its conventional counterpart i.e. single-point incremental forming method. Thus, the numerical simulation of this method is an essential task, which leads to the reduction of trial/error costs, predicts th...

This paper investigates the relative and incremental information content of KPMG’s recently developed metric for shareholder value creation: earnings less risk-free interest charge (ERIC). We assess if ERIC has a better ability to predict stock returns than earnings, cash flow from operations (CFO), before extraordinary items (EBEI), residual income (RI), or economic added (EVA). evaluate data ...

Abstract. For autonomous systems, an accurate and precise map of the environment is importance. Mapping from LiDAR point clouds one promising ways to generate 3D models. However, there are many problems caused by inaccurate data, missing areas, low density points sensor noise. Also, it often not possible or enough a only measurement campaign. In this paper, we propose method incrementally refin...
