Knowledge integration in diverse teams depends on their integrative capacity— the social and cognitive processes, along with emergent states, that shape a team’s ability to combine diverse knowledge. We argue that integrative capacity represents the potential that a team has to overcome various compositional, team, and contextual barriers to generating integrated and novel knowledge. This artic...

Research in the past decade has documented that financial exploitation of older adults has become a major problem, and psychology is only recently increasing its presence in efforts to reduce exploitation. During the same time period, psychology has been a leader in setting best practices for the assessment of diminished capacity in older adults culminating in the 2008 American Bar Association ...

Sink location is considered as a basic service in geographic routing in wireless sensor networks. Obtaining the location of sink node by source node using an efficient method with low complexity has always been a challenging issue in research. In this paper, a sink location algorithm based on Fano plane is proposed. The research challenge is how to ensure the intersection of two SLQ (Location Q...

This paper at first introduces an examination in Japan to standardize traffic simulation models. The basic idea of the standardization here is to estimate abilities of existing models how to reproduce traffic conditions through verification and validation. Verification implies qualifying tests using virtual data sets in order to make a connection between the simulation model and the traffic-eng...

P is the acronym for the Progression Analysis and Signal System Evaluation Routine. PASSER II was originally developed by the Texas Transportation Institute (TTI) for the Dallas Corridor Project. The Texas State Department of Highways and Public Transportation (SDHPT) has sponsored the subsequent program development on both mainframe computers and microcomputers.’ The theory, model structure, m...

Traffic flow systems are nonlinear and uncertain, so it is very difficult to find their optimal points. In traditional traffic control systems, the traffic lights of crossings change in a fixed time period that is not optimal. On the other hand, most proposed systems are sufficiently capable of coping with the uncertainties of traffic flow. To solve this problem, there is a need to develop expe...

In the ever-growing travel demand, traffic congestion on freeways and expressways recurs more frequently at a higher number of locations and for longer durations with added severity. This becomes especially true in large metropolitan areas. Particular to the urban areas, excessive crowdedness caused by inefficient traffic control also results in urban street networks operating in near or over-s...

In analytic geometry, Bézout’s theorem stated the number of intersection points two algebraic curves and Fulton introduced multiplicity at some point in local case. It is meaningful to give exact expression point. this paper, we mainly express R 2 id="M2"...

Non-standard unsignalised intersections are very common in European countries with old street networks. The major road often bends at an angle the centre of intersection, which makes intersection non-standard. There few papers about capacity analysis and headway values these intersections, even though non-standard widespread not only Europe but also rest world. Regarding fact that priority (NSU...
