We introduce a notion of macroaction for a given subplan. A macroaction is an action representing the given plan and it can be considered as an abstraction, neglecting the internal structure of the original plan. The description of the macroaction is sufficiently powerful to represent all the information needed for synchronization and clobbering detection of the given subplan. It is possible to...

Our earlier paper [see Ho, R. Y.-W., Strange, R., & Piesse, J. (2006). On the conditional pricing effects of beta, size, and book-to-market equity in the Hong Kong market. Journal of International Financial Markets, Institutions and Money, 16, 124–199] reported evidence supporting significant conditional pricing effects of beta, size, and book-to-market equity in the Hong Kong market. This stud...

deviding both the subjects and the predicates of the categorical propositions into actuality and verity, afzal al-din khunaji states the actuality-parts as adjectives, but verity-parts in three forms: as simple, as relational and as conditional. since the adjectives are formulated in modern logic by conjunction, we can formulate actuality-parts as conjunctions. verity-parts can be formulated at...

Direct reciprocity, or repeated interaction, is a main mechanism to sustain cooperation under social dilemmas involving two individuals. For larger groups and networks, which are probably more relevant to understanding and engineering our society, experiments employing repeated multiplayer social dilemma games have suggested that humans often show conditional cooperation behavior and its moody ...

A considerable amount of studies have been established on conditional reasoning supporting mental model theory of propositional reasoning. Mental model theory proposed by Johnson- larid and Byrne is an explanation of someone's thought process about how something occurs in the real world. Conditional reasoning as a kind of reasoning is the way to speak about possibilities or probabilities. The a...

in this paper the conditional location problem is discussed. conditional location problems have a wide range of applications in location science. a new meta-heuristic algorithm for solving conditional p-median problems is proposed and results are compared to those of the previous studies. this algorithm produces much better results than the previous formulations.

We provide a mathematical formulation of flight-specific delay cost functions that enables detailed tactical consideration how given flight will interact with all downstream constraints in the respective aircraft rotation. These are reformulated into stochastic to respect conditional probabilities and increasing uncertainty related more distant operational constraints. Conditional learned from ...

In this paper, we will briefly review the problem of IDS and IPS performance evaluation, demonstrating how flawed current approaches to evaluation are, both in academia and in the industry. We will show all the issues in current testing methodologies, as well as key reasons to distrust claimed performance rates of current IDS systems. We will also show how practical testing architectures can be...

Quantum uncertainty relations are typically analyzed for a pair of incompatible observables, however, the concept per se naturally extends to situations more than two observables. In this work, we obtain tripartite quantum-memory-assisted entropic multiple measurements and show that lower bounds these have three terms depend on complementarity conditional von-Neumann entropies, Holevo quantitie...
