In this contribution, we reconsider the notion of determinism for max-plus automata by including quantitative aspect in its definition. A determinization procedure adapted to so-called weight-determinism is proposed. The motivation generalize results based on automata.

The central thesis of this paper is that Rasmussen framed his approach to Cognitive Systems Engineering from the perspective of a Triadic Semiotic Model. This frame became the context for integrating multiple intellectual threads including Control Theory, Information Theory, Ecological Psychology, and Gestalt Psychology into a coherent theoretical framework. The case is made that the triadic se...

Partial triadic analysis is a multiway analysis method that is a well suited statistical tool to get a clear representation of a chronological series of matrices, one for each sample date. It allows the simultaneous principal component analyses of several matrices and permits one to find a spatial structure common to every matrix and to study its temporal stability. Partial triadic analysis beg...

The Heider balance addresses three-body interactions with the assumption that triads are equally important in dynamics of network. In many networks, relations do not have same strength, so differently weighted. Now, question is how social networks evolve to reduce number unbalanced triangles when they weighted? Are results foreseeable based on what we already learned from unweighted balance? To...

The contribution of this work relates to the field of Arabic text-based document analysis for the detection of plagiarism. This analysis will be carried out according to the triadic computation model of document similarity. The authors propose a hybrid segmentation prototype for Arabic text-based documents that links different processing steps in order to generate the similarity rate between th...

State-machine-based replication is an effective way to increase the availability and dependability of mission-critical applications. However, all practical applications contain some degree of non-determinism. Consequently, ensuring strong replica consistency in the presence of application non-determinism has been one of the biggest challenges in building dependable distributed systems. In this ...
