Reliable location routing problem considers a location problem and a vehicle routing problem in order to select the optimal location of facilities and at the same time the optimal routes for vehicles considering the unexpected failure for facilities in which, all facilities may fail with a probability. In this paper, a bi-objective mathematical model has been developed to minimize the total cos...

I discuss how the Multiple Pathway Anchoring and Adjustment model is similar to and different from the Feldman and Lynch accessibility-diagnosticity model, elaborated as an anchoring and adjustment model by Lynch, Marmorstein, andWeigold. Cohen and Reed’s concept of representational sufficiency embraces both attitude coherence and retrieval fluency; these map to prior operationalizations of dia...

Firms can differentiate their products through improving their accessibilities so that it costs less for the consumers to collect information on firms’ products. In this way, firms’ products become more attractive to the consumers and thus more demand will be generated. However, this improvement requires a fair amount of investment from firms. This essay will use the spatial model, where two id...

In this paper, we introduce our initiative to use the Geospatial Web 2.0 (Geoweb) to improve the accessibility of climate models developed by NASA/GISS. This initiative aims to increase the general public’s literacy of climate change to promote their participation in climate change issues. Three groups of Geoweb applications that wrapped around the climate models are presented. The first is a w...

Attachment theory is a prominent social psychological framework for understanding patterns of thinking about relationships. According to this theory, individuals gradually develop mental models of relationships, and these models influence subsequent information processing. Different experiences in relationships are posited to lead to differences in accessibility of particular mental models. The...

We introduce an incremental model for coreference resolution that competed in the CoNLL 2011 shared task (open regular). We decided to participate with our baseline model, since it worked well with two other datasets. The benefits of an incremental over a mention-pair architecture are: a drastic reduction of the number of candidate pairs, a means to overcome the problem of underspecified items ...

Following the tenets of the selective accessibility model of assimilation and contrast, three studies observed implicit consumer self-concept assimilation (contrast) to age-based imagery when the discrepancy between the self-concept and advertisement imagery was moderate (extreme). However, these responses were not fully automatic as only consumers who processed user imagery reflectively demons...

This study extends the Technological culturation (TC) model proposed by Straub et al. by examining the influences of two additional constructs accessibility of technology (AT) and perceived socio-economic prospects (PSEP) on the usage (U) of information and communications technologies (ICTs). Research question was: In addition to technological culturation, do “accessibility of ICTs” and “indivi...

ChIP-seq enables genome-scale identification of regulatory regions that govern gene expression. However, the biological insights generated from ChIP-seq analysis have been limited to predictions of binding sites and cooperative interactions. Furthermore, ChIP-seq data often poorly correlate with in vitro measurements or predicted motifs, highlighting that binding affinity alone is insufficient ...

It is a legal requirement in many countries to ensure accessibility for Web applications. Although there are numerous regulations and standards regarding accessibility in the development of user interfaces, accessibility is nevertheless quite difficult to achieve, let alone tomaintain at a high level of quality throughout the development process. This difficulty is due to diverse factors includ...
