This paper investigates the effectiveness of concordance-based material for an EFL problem—misordering in expressions of measurement. A specifically designed preand posttest is developed for testing Thai students’ ability to use the expression. The sample comprises four groups of university students in their first and second years (two groups each). One first year group and one sophomore group ...

We compute the initial flow field using the Classic+NL method [4] and fit K affine motion fields to the initial forward flow field. The fitting method is similar to K-means, where we cluster the flow vectors and fit the affine parameters of each cluster. A pixel is visible at the layer that best explains its motion and invisible at the other layers. To avoid local minima, we perform 25 independ...

Abstract—Concurrent planning of project scheduling and material ordering has been increasingly addressed within last decades as an approach to improve the project execution costs. Therefore, we have taken the problem into consideration in this paper, aiming to maximize schedules quality robustness, in addition to minimize the relevant costs. In this regard, a bi-objective mathematical model is ...

We present a logic for reasoning about LOTOS behaviours which allows properties involving repeated patterns over actions and data to be expressed The semantics of the logic is given with respect to sym bolic transition systems Several motivational examples are included The reader is assumed to have passing familiarity with LOTOS

The influence of semantic processing on the serial ordering of items in short-term memory was explored using a novel dual-task paradigm. Participants engaged in 2 picture-judgment tasks while simultaneously performing delayed serial recall. List material varied in the presence of phonological overlap (Experiments 1 and 2) and in semantic content (concrete words in Experiment 1 and 3; nonwords i...

the synthesis of nanocrystalline fe3al powder by mechanical alloying as well as the structural ordering of the synthesized fe3al particles during the subsequent thermal analysis were investigated. mechanical alloying was performed up to 100 hours using a planetary ball mill apparatus with rotational speed of 300 rpm under argon atmosphere at ambient temperature. the synthesized powders were cha...
