In this paper, we propose to investigate the equivalence between different meta-modeling formalisms, with the practical target of sharing experience on model engineering. Our experience, derived from the MétaGen project, is embodied by rule-based "value-adding" model transforms, written on a special form of the Entity/Relationship formalism as a meta-modeling framework. We propose a scheme by w...

Compositional languages and meta-programming are two approaches of code reusing. Both have its merits and demerits. We distilled the better of these two approaches by coupling disciplined meta-programming features with a compositional language like C++. In this paper we present a meta-programming approach to implement software product lines by designing an Array Product Line to implement differ...

This paper proposes a multi-agent Q-learning algorithm called meta-game-Q learning that is developed from the meta-game equilibrium concept. Different from Nash equilibrium, meta-game equilibrium can achieve the optimal joint action game through deliberating its preference and predicting others’ policies in the general-sum game. A distributed negotiation algorithm is used to solve the meta-game...

Meta-learning has been sufficiently validated to be beneficial for low-resource neural machine translation (NMT). However, we find that meta-trained NMT fails improve the performance of domain unseen at meta-training stage. In this paper, aim alleviate issue by proposing a novel meta-curriculum learning adaptation in NMT. During meta-training, first learns similar curricula from each avoid fall...

In an attempt to explain the lack of consensus that emerged from a review of the extant literature on the performance implications of cultural differences in mergers and acquisitions [M&A], meta-analyses were conducted for three categories of performance measures: stock market-based measures, accounting-based measures, and socio-cultural integration outcomes. As hypothesized, meta-analytic find...

Node cooperation can protect wireless networks from eavesdropping by using the physical characteristics of wireless channels rather than cryptographic methods. Allocating the proper amount of power to cooperative nodes is a challenging task. In this paper, we use three cooperative nodes, one as relay to increase throughput at the destination and two friendly jammers to degrade eavesdropper&rsqu...

the aim of this research was to determine the effect of contextual interference derived from self-regulation practice with regard to type of task on acquisition and retention of tracking tasks with an emphasis on meta-cognition hypotheses (cognition and meta-cognition phenomena). for this purpose, 24 right handed male and female students of yazd university (mean age: 22± 1.7) were selected via ...
