Envisioning and writing a thesis proposal is one of the most difficult things student does in graduate school. Students typically have no experience proposals—or even conceiving thesis-sized research programs. Nor should they—they are doing work to develop these skills. Often left write with almost guidance about purpose proposal, its content organizational structure, or how it will be judged.

 Introducing a Guideline for Preparing an Article from a Thesis: A Continuing Education Article M.

This would help to increase the likelihood of the use of th...

We consider two-player turn-based games with zero-reachability and zero-safety objectives generated by extended vector addition systems with states. Although the problem of deciding the winner in such games in undecidable in general, we identify several decidable and even tractable subcases of this problem obtained by restricting the number of counters and/or the sets of target configura-

This study deals with the thesis that conceivability implies possibility. Confronted with alleged counterexamples to this thesis, some philosophers have turned to what may be called “idealized” or “more demanding” notions of conceivability. I argue that in turning to such notions, they have made the thesis useless to limited beings like us for attaining modal knowledge. However, in refusing to ...

The empirical validity of the projeetivity hypothesis for Bulgarian is tested. It is shown that the justification of the hypothesis presented for other languages suffers serious methodological deficiencies. Our automated testing, designed to evade such deficiencies~ yielded results falsifying the hypothesis for Bulgarian: the non-projective constructions studied were in fact grammatical rather ...

This paper establishes a sufficient condition for Turing’s formulae of various orders to have asymptotic multivariate normality. As an application, a consistent estimator of the tail under a discrete power tail model is also described.

The ethical aspects of computing are increasingly being taught and written about in professional information systems education in universities. However, the ever-increasing role and use of computer technology means that computer ethics education related to computing is also necessary for non-professional/non-major computing/information systems students. Owing to the differences between professi...

Wegner and Eberbach[Weg04b] have argued that there are fundamental limitations to Turing Machines as a foundation of computability and that these can be overcome by so-called superTuring models. In this paper we contest their claims for interaction machines and the πcalculus.
