The non-objective and non-scientific evaluation of sports tourism resources has become a bottleneck which restricts the development of sports tourism industry. In order to make the evaluation of sports tourism resources have more comprehensiveness, accuracy and scientificalness and to promote the healthy and sustainable development of sports tourism industry, this paper, based on the AHP-FUZZY ...

BACKGROUND It has been shown that people can only maintain one problem state, or intermediate mental representation, at a time. When more than one problem state is required, for example in multitasking, performance decreases considerably. This effect has been explained in terms of a problem state bottleneck. METHODOLOGY In the current study we use the complimentary methodologies of computatio...

Network dimensioning is becoming important in order to provide a stable Quality of Service (QoS) to the customers. However, it is not an easy task because the Internet traffic changes dynamically and frequently. We thus need a new approach for network dimensioning suitable to the Internet. Probably, it would be quite different from the existing well-established method for the telephone network....

The emerging class of urgent geoscience workflows are capable of quickly allocating computational resources for time critical tasks. To date, no urgent computing capabilities for data services exists. Since urgent geoscience and Earth science workflows are typically data intensive, urgent data services are necessary so that these urgent workflows do not bottleneck on inappropriately managed or ...

Grid computing for resources sharing and distributed computing has been researched widely in the past. As for distributed spatial datasets, the current centralized administrative scheme may become the system performance bottleneck. This paper presents a distributed cooperative grid computing technology to facilitate complex spatial applications by collaboration among distributed spatial resourc...

This paper provides an overview of the research and development activities carried out to alleviate the language resources’ bottleneck in machine translation within the Abu-MaTran project. We have developed a range of tools for the acquisition of the main resources required by the two most popular approaches to machine translation, i.e. statistical (corpora) and rule-based models (dictionaries ...

ABSTRACT Spatial scheduling considers not only traditional scheduling constraints like resource capacity and due dates, but also dynamic spatial layout of the objects. Automation of spatial scheduling is particularly important when the spatial resources are critical bottleneck resources, as is the case in the shipbuilding industry. To develop a spatial scheduling expert system for shipbuilding,...

Additional transistors available in each process generation are used to increase the number of cores on chip. This trend results in high execution unit performance relative to other available resources, such as memory bandwidth, I/O bandwidth, and power. Consequently, the performance bottleneck in modern systems has shifted from the execution units to other resources. In this paper we propose a...
