EEC on the Razor's Edge

"Razors to autoclaves".

IT HAS for long been the custom in the great teaching hospitals of these islands, at the beginning of each academic year, for a member of the senior medical staff to deliver an address. I have little doubt at its inception this was a method of introducing the new student to his hospital, advising him of its traditions and practices, and instructing him on his new responsibilities and duties tow...

survey on the rule of the due & hindering relying on the sheikh ansaris ideas

قاعده مقتضی و مانع در متون فقهی کم و بیش مستند احکام قرار گرفته و مورد مناقشه فقهاء و اصولیین می باشد و مشهور معتقند مقتضی و مانع، قاعده نیست بلکه یکی از مسائل ذیل استصحاب است لذا نگارنده بر آن شد تا پیرامون این قاعده پژوهش جامعی انجام دهد. به عقیده ما مقتضی دارای حیثیت مستقلی است و هر گاه می گوییم مقتضی احراز شد یعنی با ماهیت مستقل خودش محرز گشته و قطعا اقتضاء خود را خواهد داشت مانند نکاح که ...

Occam's Two Razors: The Sharp and the Blunt

Occam’s razor has been the subject of much controversy. This paper argues that this is partly because it has been interpreted in two quite different ways, the first of which (simplicity is a goal in itself) is essentially correct, while the second (simplicity leads to greater accuracy) is not. The paper reviews the large variety of theoretical arguments and empirical evidence for and against th...

Report of the EEC Working Group on High-Performance Computing

On the Edge-Difference and Edge-Sum Chromatic Sum of the Simple Graphs

‎For a coloring $c$ of a graph $G$‎, ‎the edge-difference coloring sum and edge-sum coloring sum with respect to the coloring $c$ are respectively‎ ‎$sum_c D(G)=sum |c(a)-c(b)|$ and $sum_s S(G)=sum (c(a)+c(b))$‎, ‎where the summations are taken over all edges $abin E(G)$‎. ‎The edge-difference chromatic sum‎, ‎denoted by $sum D(G)$‎, ‎and the edge-sum chromatic sum‎, ‎denoted by $sum S(G)$‎, ‎a...
