A COORDINATE TRANSFORMATION FROM SURVEYING TO ORDINARY SURVEYING SYSTEM

Surveying Rule Inheritance in Model-to-Model Transformation Languages

Model transformations play a significant role in Model-Driven Engineering. However, their reuse mechanisms have yet to receive much attention. In this paper, we propose a comparison framework for rule inheritance in model-to-model transformation languages, and provide an in-depth evaluation of prominent representatives of imperative, declarative and hybrid transformation languages. The framewor...

NAVSTAR Global Positioning System Surveying

A surveying optical diffractometer.

I N T R O D U C T I O N Optical diffraction and filtering of electron micrographs offers an objective method for analysing periodic structures. Because the preservation of detail in electron micrographs usually is not perfect, many micrographs must be examined and assessed to identify images suitable for analysis. I t is useful to have an instrument that allows one to survey many dozens of elec...

Active Surveying

Opinion leaders play an important role in influencing people’s opinions, actions and behaviors. Although a number of methods have been proposed in literature for identifying influentials using secondary sources of information, the true set of opinion leaders revealed through primary sources, such as surveys, is still favored in many domains. In this work, we present a new active learning method...

New Approaches to Surveying Organizations

The last three decades have witnessed an explosion of theoretical work on the organization of firms (Robert Gibbons and John Roberts forthcoming). In parallel, there has been a massive increase in access to microdata which has revealed huge dispersions in productivity. For example, within narrow industries like cement, oak flooring, and block-ice the total factor productivity of plants at the n...
