We consider 2-player games played on a finite state space for an infinite number of rounds. The games are concurrent: in each round, the two players (player 1 and player 2) choose their moves independently and simultaneously; the current state and the two moves determine the successor state. We study concurrent games with ω-regular winning conditions specified as parity objectives. We consider ...

increased level of stress has negative effects on cognitive functions. thus, it is necessary to identify appropriate strategies to prevent cognitive and motor performance decline. the aim of this research was to study the effect of immobilization stress on learning and memory and the protective role of physical activity in them. from male albino-wistar rats of pastor institute, 32 rats were ran...

We consider concurrent two-player timed automaton games with ω-regular objectives specified as parity conditions. These games offer an appropriate model for the synthesis of real-time controllers. Earlier works on timed games focused on pure strategies for each player. We study, for the first time, the use of randomized strategies in such games. While pure (i.e., nonrandomized) strategies in ti...

UNLABELLED Despite growing interest in developing cognitive training interventions to minimize the aging cognitive decline process, no studies have attempted to explore which brain regions support the application of semantic strategies during verbal memory encoding. Our aim was to investigate the behavioral performance and brain correlates of these strategies in elderly individuals using fMRI i...

We have measured the energy efficiency of different memory management strategies on a high performance pocket computer. We conducted our study by measuring the energy consumption of eight C programs with four different memory management strategies each. The memory management strategies are: no deallocation, explicit deallocation, conservative mark-and-sweep garbage collection, and conservative ...

In this paper, we present some strategies that are capable of reducing the required memory sizes and power consumption for a large class of data-intensive multimedia applications. This class consists of static control programs with large multi-dimensional arrays and (piece-wise) aane storage and execution order. These strategies are equally well suited for parallel and mono-processing applicati...

interlanguage pragmatics (ilp) has witnessed a growing body of research in the past two decades. one of the under-explored domains of l2 pragmatics is the role of learning strategies specifically tailored for the development of ilp knowledge. therefore, this investigation aimed to determine the significant interlanguage pragmatic learning strategies (ipls) used by high vs. low l2 pragmatic achi...
