A framework to develop proactive BI is presented and discussed in this chapter. In a proactive process, analysis develops as a scientific investigation or research, where analysts must discover an initial set of hypotheses and then test or evaluate the hypotheses. The steps of the framework are presented and ways to perform each step are discussed. Data mining techniques are associated to this ...

In this paper we present a technique for reducing response delay for web systems, which is based on a proactive cache scheme. It combines predictive pre-fetching and streaming to overlap the read-time with loading time. This graph-based model analyzes the hyperlink structure to form the prediction. It also utilizes data streaming to further minimize the pre-load, without compromising the respon...

Participant observation was em...

This study investigated the effectiveness of reactive incidental focus on form (FonF) for each learner with regard to different linguistic categories in meaning-oriented EFL classes. To this end, 30 hr of meaningful interactions of upper-intermediate EFL learners were audio-recorded in 2 free discussion classes. Instances of reactive incidental focus-on-form episodes (FFEs), where teachers offe...
