Questions Hydrological niche segregation is widespread and has been found across a range of different habitats. Different plant species can occupy distinct hydrological niches, as result fine-scale variability in hydrology structure communities. However, these patterns may not be clear habitats where differences are more short-lived, such coastal dune slacks. We explored the extent that regime ...

This paper develops a new factor-analysis-based (FAB) approach for choosing the optimal direction in directional distance function (DDF) analysis. It has combined merits of factor analysis and slacks-based measure (SBM) incorporates relative ease with which various input-output could be adjusted. development relieves reliance on price information that is difficult to obtain provision public goo...

in this paper, the performance of 11 different distances for image retrieval and classification, based on color, shape and texture, is evaluated. the precision-recall measure and the correct classification rate of the k-nn classifier are used to evaluate retrieval and classification performances, respectively. the experimental results for a database of 1000 images from 10 different semantic gro...

With the rapid growth of China’s economic growth, a large number greenhouse gas emissions have led to significant increase in environmental pressure. Currently, China has not yet achieved good balance between and growth. To improve sustainable development regional economy effectively control domestic CO2 emissions, research is conducted analyze trend change based on carbon emission policies. Th...

Clustered architecture processors are preferred for embedded systems because centralized register file architectures scale poorly in terms of clock rate, chip area, and power consumption. Although clustering helps by improving clock speed, reducing energy consumption of the logic, and making design simpler, it introduces extra overheads by way of inter-cluster communication. This communication ...

In order to support the green and low-carbon transformation of China’s construction industry accomplish dual carbon objective, it is vital accelerate technology innovation. Therefore, this paper takes Chengdu–Chongqing urban agglomeration China as study area, using super-efficiency slacks-based measure (SBM)model gravity model assess efficiency innovation in industry, utilizing geographical det...

Reducing energy consumption has become a pressing issue in cluster computing systems not only for minimizing electricity cost, but also for improving system reliability. Therefore, it is highly desirable to design energy-efficient scheduling algorithms for applications running on clusters. In this paper, we address the problem of non-preemptively scheduling mixed tasks on power-aware clusters. ...

• Germination and symbiotic development of the myco-heterotrophic plant Monotropa hypopitys were studied by sequential recovery of packets of seed buried in dune slacks in relation to distance from mature M. hypopitys and presence and absence of shoots of its autotrophic coassociate Salix repens . • Fungal associates of M. hypopitys growing under S. repens in the dune slacks, and under S. capre...

To address the gap in energy performance studies regarding role of information entropy feedback processes between input and output slacks, paper develops a novel Stochastic-Entropic Analysis for Ideal Solutions (SEA-IS) model. The non-linear stochastic optimization model is then applied to assess potential gains that may arise from slacks minimization given different optimal reduction quantiles...

in this paper, a novel approach for ranking fuzzy numbers based on the angle measure is introduced. several left and right spreads at each chosen levels of fuzzy numbers is used to determine center of mass points(cmps) and then, the angels between the cmps and the horizontal axis is calculated. the total angle is determined by averaging the computed angles and finally, the novel method is compa...
