Service-oriented development offers a novel architectural approach to business process development that addresses issues such as dynamic evolution and intraand inter-enterprise cooperation. Our emphasis in this paper is on the distribution aspects of that approach: we show how a ‘distribution logic’ can be defined that extends the typical ‘composition layer’ of service-oriented architectures wi...

This study compares utterances by Russian and Chinese learners of German with those of native speakers. Adopting the methodology of an earlier study on accented English, we rated the utterances for strength of foreign accent. We aim to find measurable prosodic differences accounting for the perceptual results. Our outcomes indicate, inter alia, that unaccented syllables are relatively longer co...

Abstract For natural language processing systems, two kinds of evidence support the use text representations from neural models “pretrained” on large unannotated corpora: performance application-inspired benchmarks (Peters et al., 2018, inter alia), and emergence syntactic abstractions in those (Tenney 2019, alia). On other hand, lack grounded supervision calls into question how well these can ...

In this paper, we estimated the standard (macro-economic) import equation over period 1995-2021Q2, using an intensity-adjusted measure of aggregate demand (IAD) calculated from input-output tables at country level, and compared results with regressions GDP. Initially introduced by Bussière (2013), "synthetic" concept IAD was perfected, inter alia, IMF (2016) us (2017), a view to explaining "mis...

purpose: the current research aims to investigate the status of knowledge sharing amongst librarians in lis, ala and alia discussion groups. methodology: through purposive sampling, librarians from three discussion groups (ala, alia & lis-iranian discussion list) who announced their intention to participate in the research (460 people) were asked to complete the questionnaire between 2010/10/23...

Formality pattern، which gave a sense of formal equilibrium without any obstruction or confusion، resulting from combination،Conclusions، inter alia، that the functional performance administrative spaces is reflected in comfortable internal environment. Using environmental control systems (air conditioning، sound and fire detection systems)، they play an effective role In changing inner atmosph...

Abstract We study the connected algebraic groups acting on Mori fibrations $X \to Y$ with $X$ a rational threefold and $\textrm{dim}(Y) \geq 1$. More precisely, for these fibre spaces, we consider neutral component of their automorphism equivariant birational geometry. This is done using, inter alia, minimal model program Sarkisov allows us to determine maximal subgroups $\textrm{Bir}(\mathbb{P...

Abstract. In response to global change and biodiversity loss caused, inter alia, by agricultural practices, our speculative photo-response fabulation project with farmers beekeepers in the Jura region co-develops perceptions of future Switzerland's waterscapes. Research participants imagine narrate most probable desired futures waterscapes 2222. The technique uses photographs elicit participant...
