ABSTRCT: The importance of innovative talents cultivation for mineral processing engineering is discussed. From the new training program of mineral processing specialty formulating and implementing, the thought of innovation talents cultivation for mineral processing engineering was discussed. It is suggested to construct the research subject curriculum system, play the role of teaching masters...

In present China, bilingual teaching, as an education model, can meet an urgent demand for increasing interdisciplinary talents who have high levels of professional knowledge as well as competent foreign language abilities to deal with the ever-increasing global social, economic, scientific and technological exchanges, and international cooperation. Bilingual teaching is now developing fast in ...

Rev Panam Salud Publica/Pan Am J Public Health 8(1/2), 2000 A roundtable discussion on international cooperation in health reform in the Americas In April 2000 representatives from several international donor organizations conducted an electronic roundtable to look into their “crystal balls” and imagine a future for donor collaboration in health sector reform in the Americas. The participants w...

Twelve countries have acceded to the European Union (EU) since 2004, including five transition economies in Central Europe, the three Baltic republics and two more in Eastern Europe (along with Cyprus and Malta). One of the transition economies, Slovenia, in 2007 joined the European Economic and Monetary Union (EMU), adopting the euro, as envisioned in the Maastricht Treaty, in 2007. Should the...

Based on a notion of relatively maximal m -relaxed monotonicity, the approximation solvability of a general class of inclusion problems is discussed, while generalizing Rockafellar’s theorem 1976 on linear convergence using the proximal point algorithm in a real Hilbert space setting. Convergence analysis, based on this newmodel, is simpler and compact than that of the celebrated technique of R...

The technological objectives of this project are to investigate the mechanics of wave-driven flow on complex topographies. Specifically, we are examining the occurrence, forms, and detailed causes of flow instabilities over complex topographies; the influence of three dimensional topographical features on large scale flow features, the forms and utility of simplified expressions in predicting f...

Recent research has identified interactions between networks as crucial for the outcome of evolutionary games taking place on them. While the consensus is that interdependence does promote cooperation by means of organizational complexity and enhanced reciprocity that is out of reach on isolated networks, we here address the question just how much interdependence there should be. Intuitively, o...

This paper analyzes the Self-Adaptation (SA) algorithm widely used to adapt strategy parameters of the Evolution Strategy (ES) in order to obtain maximal ES-performance. The investigations are concentrated on the adaptation of one general mutation strength (called SA) in (1;) ESs. The hypersphere serves as the tness model. Starting from an introduction into the basic concept of self-adaptation,...

This paper provides an overview of evolutionary robotics techniques applied to on-line distributed evolution for robot collectives – namely, embodied evolution. It provides a definition of embodied evolution as well as a thorough description of the underlying concepts and mechanisms. The paper also presents a comprehensive summary of research published in the field since its inception (1999-201...
