Despite the remarkable improvement of hardware and network technology, the inevitable delay from a user's command action to a system response is still one of the most crucial influence factors in user experiences (UXs). Especially for a web video service, an initial delay from click action to video start has significant influences on the quality of experience (QoE). The initial delay of a syste...

In this thesis, we construct an algebraic framework for analyzing committee elections. In this framework, module homomorphisms are used to model positional voting procedures. Using the action of the wreath product group S2[Sn] on these modules, we obtain module decompositions which help us to gain an understanding of the module homomorphism. We use these decompositions to construct some interes...

in this paper we study the module contractibility ofbanach algebras and characterize them in terms the conceptssplitting and admissibility of short exact sequences. also weinvestigate module contractibility of banach algebras with theconcept of the module diagonal.

This article examines the use of action learning sets in a leadership module delivered by a university in south east England. An evaluation research study was undertaking using survey method to evaluate student engagement with action learning sets, and their value, impact and sustainability. Data were collected through a questionnaire with a mix of Likert-style and open-ended questions and qual...

The hit problem for a cohomology module over the Steenrod algebra A asks for a minimal set of A-generators for the module. In this paper we consider the symmetric algebras over the field Fp, for p an arbitrary prime, and treat the equivalent problem of determining the set of A∗-primitive elements in their duals. We produce a method for generating new primitives from known ones via a new action ...

This article demonstrates a method for composing a programming language by combining action-semantics modules. Each module is defined separately, and then a programming-language module is defined by combining existing modules. This method enables the language designer to gradually develop a language by defining, selecting and combining suitable modules. The resulting modular structure is substa...

This paper presents the application of an action module planning method to an experimental climbing robot named LIBRA. The method searches for a sequence of physically realizable actions, called action modules, to produce a plan for a given task. The search is performed with a hierarchical selection process that uses task and configuration filters to reduce the action module inventory to a reas...

The cohomology of a group G with coefficients in a left G–module M is denoted H .GIM /. We are primarily interested in the case where M is the group ring, ZG . Since ZG is a G–bimodule, H .GIZG/ inherits the structure of a right G– module. When G is discrete and acts properly and cocompactly on a contractible CW complex , there is a natural topological interpretation for this cohomology group:...

We have designed a novel Event-Condition-Action (ECA) scheme based Ad hoc On-demand Distance Vector(ECA-AODV) routing protocol for a Ubiquitous Network (UbiNet). ECA-AODV is designed to make routing decision dynamically and quicker response to dynamic network conditions as and when event occur. ECA scheme essentially consists of three modules to make runtime routing decision quicker. First, eve...

let a be a banach algebra and e be a banach a-bimodule then s = a  e, the l1-direct sum of a and e becomes a module extension banach algebra when equipped with the algebras product (a; x):(a′; x′) = (aa′; a:x′ + x:a′). in this paper, we investigate △-amenability for these banach algebras and we show that for discrete inverse semigroup s with the set of idempotents es, the module extension bana...
