We discuss ambiguities of the two main dimensions of the map proposed by Bentley and colleagues that relate to the degree of self-reflection the observed agents have upon their behavior. This self-reflection is a variant of the "looping effect" which denotes that, in social research, the product of investigation influences the object of investigation. We outline how this can be understood as a ...

We establish a generic theoretical tool to construct probabilistic bounds for algorithms where the output is a subset of objects from an initial pool of candidates (or more generally, a probability distribution on said pool). This general device, dubbed “Occam’s hammer”, acts as a meta layer when a probabilistic bound is already known on the objects of the pool taken individually, and aims at c...

Dynamic Pressure rise or fall in all kinds of pipelines due to the operation valve which are transmitting fluids very much essential part consider design pipeline. This paper presents how calculate these dynamic pressure waves while designing pipelines.

Recording live lectures has proven to be a fast and efficient way of creating content for e-learning (Lauer & Ottmann, 2002). This content can be used in a number of ways ranging from simply augmenting a lecture to profoundly changing its didactic setting. See (Mertens et al., 2004 a) for an overview. A number of application scenarios aim for replacing the lecture in its traditional form by mor...
