Designing Paths with Minimum Number of Hops: Comparing Disaggregated and Aggregated Formulations

Given an undirected network with link capacities and a set of commodities with known demands, this paper addresses the problem of determining D (with D = 2, 3) hop-constrained node disjoint paths for each commodity while minimizing the average or the maximum number of hops of all relevant paths. These paths are defined according to two survivability mechanisms: Path Diversity and Path Protectio...

specialized methods to teach spelling: comparing three methods

چکیده: بررسی ادبیات مربوطه در کشور در زمینه یادگیری زبان انگلیسی نشان می‎دهد که علی‎رغم اهمیت املا در فرآیند یادگیری به طور عام و یادگیری زبان انگلیسی به طور خاص، این مولفه از جایگاهی متناسب با اهمیت آن برخوردار نیست و عمدتاً نادیده گرفته شده است. تحقیقات گسترده‎ای در خارج از کشور در مورد ماهیت این مولفه صورت گرفته است، در حالی که به جرأت می‎توان گفت در داخل کشور گامی در مورد درک ماهیت آن و فرآی...

Aggregated Versus Disaggregated Forward Looking Information: Effects on Risk Taking

In previous research, aggregation of returns has been found as a way to counteract the risk averse behavior that is the result of investors’ myopia. This paper expands the study of aggregation by analyzing its effect on forward looking probabilities. Namely, through the disaggregation of future information, subjects become myopic and trade with varying risk preferences. In an experimental marke...

Analysis of acoustical behavior of bare cross laminated timber floors for the evaluation of the improvement of impact sound insulation

The estimation of impact sound insulation of horizontal partitions, evaluated from the performance of basic components using EN 12354-2 Standard, do not actually provides satisfactory results when applied to the floors realized with cross laminated timber (CLT) elements. Among the possible reasons of this limited correspondence between predicted and measured impact noise values, one of the most...
