An algorithm for updating the evidence in the Dempster–Shafer theory is presented. The algorithm is based on an idea of indices. These indices are used to code the process of reasoning under uncertainty (the combination of evidence)using the Dempster-Shafer theory. The algorithm allows to carry out the reasoning with updating the evidence in much more efficient way than using the original Demps...

Spatial Information revision and updating is the main concern and production effort of maintaining the ever-growing GIS systems and spatial data bases. Developing easily effected automatic updating methods of spatial information becomes the key to the successful maintenance of the large GIS data bases established by many mapping agencies all over the world. The paper presents the second phase i...

Decision inertia is the tendency to repeat previous choices independently of the outcome, which can give rise to perseveration in suboptimal choices. We investigate this tendency in probability-updating tasks. Study 1 shows that, whenever decision inertia conflicts with normatively optimal behavior (Bayesian updating), error rates are larger and decisions are slower. This is consistent with a d...

since we cannot manage what we cannot control, and we cannot control what we do not measure, the measurement of knowledge management (km) effectiveness is a very important issue. this study aims at developing a methodology to evaluate the km effectiveness under fuzziness in research organizations. in order to develop such a methodology and to define measures of km effectiveness, first the relev...

Updating a video screen involves row replacement, i.e. the task of updating an existing screen row to produce the desired row. In many environments, screen operations require transmitting characters to the terminal by a process that is painfully slow compared to computing speeds. Thus, it is worth while to compute a minimal set of row updating commands, as long as the time to do so does not out...
