in today’s complex, dynamic and ever changing modern environment, all companies need to design and use strategies helping them to improve continuous performance, because in such a competitive environment, those companies which keep pace with changing and dynamic conditions of competitive market are able to survive. this study was conducted using descriptive – correlational methodology. the stud...

a nonlocal beam model based on the bernoulli–euler beam theory is presented to investigate the dynamic stability of embedded single-walled carbon nanotubes (swcnts) in thermal environment under combined static and periodic axial loads. the dynamic stability analysis is carried out by including the effects of small-scale parameter, temperature change and elastic medium. the equation of motion is...

The ve major requirements of a transconductance-C integrator for use in cochlear lter banks are: low voltage, low power, small area, wide tuning range, and high dynamic range. The BiCMOS transconductor of Andreou and Liu [1], which incorporates MOSTs operating in strong and weak inversion and a bipolar current multiplier, simultaneously satis es all of these design criteria. Moreover, each stag...

We define a calculus for modeling dynamic linking independently of the details of a particular programming environment. The calculus distinguishes at the language level the notions of software configuration and execution, by introducing separate syntactic notions of linkset expression and command, respectively. A reduction step can be either a simplification of a linkset expression, or the exec...

the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of competencies and environmental factors on the success of rural entrepreneurs in kermanshah township. the statistical population consisted of 110 rural entrepreneurs that with using kerjci and morgan table, a sample size of 86 people were selected by random sampling technique. to collect the data, questionnaire was used. the analysis of find...

Much research about labeling schemes has been conducted to efficiently determine the ancestor-descendant relationships and the document-order between any two random XML nodes without re-labeling for updates. In this paper, we present an efficient XML encoding and labeling scheme for dynamic XML document, named Continued Fraction-based Encoding (CFE). The proposed CFE scheme labels nodes with co...

Emerging smart environment infrastructures provide users with a large number of interconnected assisting appliances. Inferring the intention of a team within such an area becomes a central challenge, especially if multiple user are observed by noisy heterogenous sensors. We propose a team task model based on hierarchical Dynamic Bayesian Network (DBN) for inferring the current task and activity...

A web monitor is a program used to monitor some public HTML-based Internet information available from dynamic HTML documents on the Internet based on a user defined set of criteria. It is able to deal with public information available on the Internet on a single or multiple websites as a set of variables which the user uses to define some required notification conditions. The monitored informat...
