Lignin in advanced energy applications: source, extraction methodolgy, structure/property relationships.

A programming calculus is presented which will yield programs with simple, suitable, and safe concurrency. The program design consists of three steps: (i) specification of a finite problem by a pre/post condition pair (2) formal refinement of a totally correct solution which can be implemented sequentially (3) declaration of program properties which allow relaxations in sequencing (+ concurrenc...

A QM–MM method, using our previously developed frozen orbital QM–MM interface methodolgy, is presented as a general, accurate, and computationally efficient model for studying chemical problems in a protein environment. The method, its parametrization, and a preliminary application to modeling cytochrome P-450 chemistry are presented. c © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Comput Chem 21: 1442–1457...

entrepreneurship culture and organizational citizenship behavior (o.c.b) are two important behavioral issues that has important role in organizational behavior management theories field today. this two issues, have many concepts in common, and it seems that they are inter influential. with regard to these two important behavioral components, are had tried to define the issues clearly and their ...

This article presents the methodology of the PASSAGE project, aiming at syntactically annotating large corpora by composing annotations. It introduces the annotation format and the syntactic annotation specifications. It describes an important component of the methodolgy, namely an WEB-based evaluation service, deployed in the context of the first PASSAGE parser evaluation campaign.

This paper accounts for the DEMOSTHENES application, an interactive tool for the correction of foreign language learners' pronunciation. After giving the didactic and technical arguments advocating for DEMOSTHENES, the authors describe the phase of creation and labelling of a sound database for the application language (Dutch). The methodolgy for the training of the recognizer is then discussed...

This paper presents a method for the acquisition of violin instrumental gesture parameters by using a commercial two-sensor 3D tracking system based on electro-magnetic field (EMF) sensing. The methodolgy described here is suitable for acquiring instrumental gesture parameters of any bowed-string instrument, and has been devised by paying attention to intrusion, flexibility, and robustness.
