The goal of this work is to investigate the acquisition of particular elementary linguistic functions in a simulation environment. The linguistic functions are denotation of objects and spatial relations. They are placed in the context of simulated action. A simulated micro-world, as it is known from research in situated action and learning (e.g. robotics), is supplemented by linguistic explana...

Abstract: Discrete mathematical model was developed for analysis and design of the continuous grinding mill-classifier systems. In the model, the mixing of the material to be ground by the axial dispersion model, the breakage kinetics by the first order breakage law, and the classifier by a usual classification function are described. This model is the basic of computer simulation. Computer pro...

Over the last few years, role of computers has become a controversial issue in language learning. This study was designed to examine the impact of computer anxiety and computer self-efficacy on the speaking section of the TOEFL iBT test taken by Intermediate EFL learners. The researchers intended to find out, which var- iable i.e. computer anxiety and/or self-efficacy would result in better per...

conclusions hcv gpe2 is an ideal target for hcv vaccine. prediction of epitope immunogenicity and characterization on the basis of peptide sequences will be significantly helpful for development of a heterologous vaccine against hcv variants. results many b-cell and t-cell epitopes predicted in gpe2 were found conserved among hcv 3a genotypes whereas few were conserved in other genotypes antici...

multiple coupled circuit modeling of squirrel-cage induction motors, or winding function approach is the most detailed and complete analytical model used to analyze the performance of the faulty induction motors. this paper extends the above-mentioned model to a saturable model including variable degrees of the saturation effects using an appropriate air gap function and novel techniques for lo...

in this paper, we explore a nonlinear mathematical model to study the spread of asthma due to inhaled pollutants from industry as well as tobacco smoke from smokers in a variable size population. the model is analyzed using stability theory of differential equations and computer simulation. it is shown that with an increase in the level of air pollutants concentration, the asthmatic (diseased) ...

This study examines the simulation of quantum algorithms on a classical computer. The program code implemented on a classical computer will be a straight connection between the mathematical formulation of quantum mechanics and computational methods. The computational language will include formulations such as quantum state, superposition and quantum operator.

the present study was conducted to evaluate data driven learning (ddl) combined with computer assisted language learning (call) as an approach to improving vocabulary knowledge of iranian postgraduates majoring in teaching english, english literature and translation. the purpose was to help language learners get familiar with ddl as a student-centered method taking advantage of a computer progr...
