This article aims to identify how knowledge workers develop their own collaboration strategies and techniques for getting their work done in complex, dynamic knowledge intensive work environments. Three case studies have been conducted to explore the nature of routines in different collaborative working settings as they provide sufficient detail to better understand the actual state and problem...

This paper presents FrameNet’s approach to the representation of Support Verbs, as but one type of multiword expression (MWE) included in the database. In addition to motivating and illustrating FrameNet’s newly consistent annotation practice for Support Verb constructions, the present work advocates adopting a broad view of what constitutes a multiword expression.

In this paper, we present a new Web cache sharing scheme. Our scheme reduces the duplicated copies of the same objects in global shared Web caches, even though the hot working set of each local cache can be duplicated. Experimental results show that the proposed scheme outperforms existing sharing schemes for the data set we considered.

The paper reports on photoelectrical performance of the mid-wave infrared (MWIR) (111) HgCdTe high operating temperature (HOT) detector for the fast response conditions. Detector structure was simulated with software APSYS by Crosslight Inc. The detailed analysis of the time response as a function of device architecture and applied bias is performed pointing out optimal working conditions.

the effect of secondary steelmaking processes such as desulphurization, removal of inclusions and vacuumdegassing followed by hot forging and hardening heat treatment on the microstructure and mechanical properties of a hot-work w500 tool steel have been studied in details. in order to follow the progress of secondary steel making, the content of impurity elements such as s, p, o, h and n were ...

Information of hotel cleaners’ musculoskeletal pain can be acquired by subjective survey on patients. The ultrasonic waves and X-ray examination can reveal the parts of muscular trauma, bones and joints, and fracture. Medical instruments can recognize the situation musculoskeletal pain and related treatment and recovery will be offered. However, after pain is relieved, hotel cleaners often expe...

to investigate the hot deformation behavior of 17-7 ph stainless steel, hot compression tests were carried out at the temperatures of 950, 1050 and 1150 oc and strain rates of 0.001 s-1 to 0.1 s-1. accordingly, the hot working behavior was studied by the analyses of flow stress curves, work hardening rate versus stress curves, exponent- type constitutive equations and deformed microstructures. ...

A particularly simple Markov chain model for a reference string is described. The model, which is only slightly more complicated than the independent reference model, generates strings that have a locality property and that have a specified probability distribution of references over pages. Expressions are obtained for expected working-set size and expected working-set miss ratio. The of change...

This paper proposes an adaptive invalidate/update protocol for software distributed shared memory(DSM), which use the working-set notion of a conventional operating system as the criteria for determining whether to update or invalidate. The proposed protocol can adjust the amount of update messages as changing the value of working-set size. The proposed protocol was implemented in CVM[4], a sof...
