The value returned by Enterprise Architecture (EA) is increasingly under consideration by researchers and practitioners. They struggle to justify the EA investments made. Quantifying the Enterprise Architecture benefits has always been a challenge because measurements and real value delivered can not often be expressed in simple technical oriented metrics only. In this paper we suggest a multi-...

In this work, we study constrained clustering, where some constraints are utilized to guide the clustering process. In existing work on this topic, two main categories of constraints have been explored, namely pairwise and cardinality constraints. Pairwise constraints enforce that the cluster labels of two instances be the same (must-link constraints) or different (cannot-link constraints). Car...

In this paper, some categorical properties of the category ${bf Cpo}_{{bf Act}text{-}S}$ of all {cpo $S$-acts}, cpo's equipped with actions of a monoid $S$ on them, and strict continuous action-preserving maps between them is considered. In particular, we describe products and coproducts in this category, and consider monomorphisms and epimorphisms. Also, we show that the forgetful functor from...

in this paper we construct the category of coverings of fundamental generalized lie group-groupoid associatedwith a connected generalized lie group. we show that this category is equivalent to the category of coverings of aconnected generalized lie group. in addition, we prove the category of coverings of generalized lie groupgroupoidand the category of actions of this generalized lie group-gro...

—In this paper, a clustering algorithm based on the cooperative transmission technology is proposed with respect to uneven energy consumption in large scope wireless sensor network. In this algorithm, to ensure the even distribution of the cluster head nodes in large scope wireless sensor network which has even clusters, the cooperative transmission technology is applied in data transmission a...
