critical path method (cpm) is one of the most popular techniques used by construction practitioners for construction project scheduling since the 1950s. despite its popularity, cpm has a major shortcoming, as it is schedule based on two impractical acceptance that the project deadline is not bounded and that resources are unlimited. the analytical competency and computing capability of cpm thus...

the aim of this study was to evaluate blocked, random, gradual incremental and gradual decremental practice schedules on the acquisition and retention of different types of basketball pass (overhead, hand chest , single arm with dominate hand) in 8-10-year-old girls. for this purpose, 60 female students of second, third and fourth grade of elementary school were voluntarily selected and randoml...

the research on project scheduling has widely expanded over the last few decades. the vast majority of these research efforts focus on exact and suboptimal procedures for constructing a workable schedule, assuming complete information and a static deterministic problem environment. project activities are scheduled subject to both technological precedence constraints and resource constraints, mo...

Objectives Developing provably correct software based on formal speciications is becoming an increasingly important task. Since imperative programming is the predominant paradigm in the real world, this course will focus on the veriication of such programs and program modules. In this course, software veriication is understood as the task to prove that a program matches its description given in...

Model-based intersection optimization strategies have been widely investigated for distributed traffic signal control in road networks. Due to the form of ‘‘black-box’’ optimization that is typically assumed, a basic challenge faced by these strategies is the combinatorial nature of the problem that must be solved. The underlying state space is exponential in the number of time steps in the loo...

These computational models are at the core of collisional plasma theories. In particular we will discuss several aspects of conservative solvers for the kinetic transport equations of particle interactions that involve either linear or non-linear Boltzmann as well as the non-linear Landau equations, by means of stagger conservative DG schemes for the transport part and DG or spectral solvers fo...
