In tlus paper we consider an investment strategy called dollar-cast-averaging (DCA). It is well known that the argument in favor of DCA is flawed: an investor cannot get something for nothing. Probabilists have made tltis type of flaw precise with theorems like the optional sampling theorem or, more generally, the martingale system theorem (see e.g. [4]). It is interesting that the usual martin...

Several investigations have examined magnesia-based investments for pure titanium casting. However, the thermal expansion value was insufficient at low casting temperatures and high interfacial reactivity occurred at high casting temperatures. The purpose of this investigation was to modify a magnesia-based investment by adding a heat-resistant mold material, zirconia, in different ratios to pr...

One of the challenging issues in the domain of C2 in complex and urban terrain is how to assist human combat staff to effectively collaborate and make decisions under multiple contexts, and to help people switch their attentions to the most urgent decision tasks. This paper describes a comprehensive approach that uses RPD-enabled agents to support timely decision-making under multiple contexts....

Multi-context team decision making under time stress is an extremely challenging issue faced by various real world application domains. In this study we employ an experience-based cognitive agent architecture (R-CAST) to address the informational challenges associated with military command and control (C) decision making teams, the performance of which can be significantly affected by dynamic c...
