In this paper, we recommend and promote global standards of the e-Trade process on the basis of ebXML & web services. For the ebXML Frameworkbased e-Trade to be facilitated, it is urgent for each country to implement and use national ebXML registry and standardize electronic documents, electronic catalog and electronic payment. In UNCEFACT, ebXML-based UN Central Registry & Repository is in the...

In this paper, an exact geometric algorithm is presented for solving two-job sequencing and scheduling problems in flexible flow shop and job shop environments while the resources are (un)available in some time periods and processors (un)availability is the same in all work centers. This study seems utterly new and it is applicable to any performance measure based on the completion time. The in...

Le but du présent article est d’étendre au cas anisotrope introduit dans [J3] un certain nombre d’énoncés et de formules de [J5] et [J6] qui ne sont établis dans (loc.cit) que dans la situation classique usuelle. Cela conduit d’une part à surmonter quelques difficultés techniques, d’autre part à clarifier un certain nombre de résultats antérieurs. Enfin, on montre sur quelques exemples simples ...

Spectral properties of unbounded symmetric Jacobi matrices are studied. Under mild assumptions on the coefficients absolute continuity of spectral measure is proved. Only operator theoretic proofs are provided. Some open problems of Ifantis are solved.

0. Introduction. Throughout this paper T will denote a measure preserving transformation on a cr-finite infinite measure space (X, (B, m) which is point isomorphic with the Lebesgue measure space of the real line. Unless otherwise stated, T will be one-one. Equations involving functions or sets will always be interpreted modulo sets of measure zero. T is said to be ergodic if T~1E = E, ££(B, im...
