Expert judgment for software effort estimation is oriented toward direct evidences that refer to actual effort of similar projects or activities through experts’ experiences. However, the availability of direct evidences implies the requirement of suitable experts together with past data. The circumstantial-evidence-based judgment proposed in this paper focuses on the development experiences de...

In this paper, we consider series-parallel and parallel-series systems with independent subsystems consisting of dependent homogeneous components whose joint lifetimes are modeled by an Archimedean copula. Then, by considering two such systems with different numbers of components within each subsystem, we establish hazard rate and reversed hazard rate orderings between the two system lifetimes,...

Museum cultural relics represent a special material heritage, and modern interpretations of them are needed in current society. Based on the catalogue data published by State Administration Cultural Heritage, this paper analyzes continuity intermittentness time series using method judgment relics, aggregation migration space spatial analysis, then uses cosine similarity to explain distribution ...

In this article, three new green's functions are presented for a narrow strip line (not a thin wire) inside or on a homogeneous dielectric, supposing quasi-TEM dominant mode. These functions have no singularity in contrast to so far presented ones, so that they can be used easily to determine the capacitance matrix of multi-layer and single-layer homogeneous coupled microstrip lines. To obtain ...
