This paper describes the concept of workflow merge and methods for merging business processes. We grouped merges in four categories according to the type of merge: sequential, parallel, conditional, and iterative, and describe the corresponding algorithms for performing these operations. We give results that allow us to determine whether a merge operation is sound. It is shown that to avoid inv...

In the present work, a numerical simulation of two parallel turbulent jets was performed. The simulations were carried out by using the  standard, the  standard and the RSM models. A parametric study was also presented to determine the effect of the nozzles spacing and velocity ratio on the axial and transverse positions of the merge and combined points. Correlations between the various paramet...

Within early Minimalism, there are Economy Principles such as Last Resort , Least Effort , and also Merge as Late as Possible . The latter principle makes it possible to explain grammaticalization, an important phenomenon in language change. The general direction of change is one where lexical items are reanalyzed as grammatical (or functional) categories, e.g. verbs as auxiliaries and preposit...

This note makes an observation that significantly simplifies previous parallel, two-way merge algorithms based on binary search and sequential merge in parallel. First, it is shown that the additional merge step of distinguished elements as found in previous algorithms is not necessary , thus simplifying the implementation and reducing constant factors. Second, by fixating the requirements to t...
