IT outsourcing has three broad forms: (i) Single-Sourcing, where the client outsources to one primary vendor, (ii) Single-Sourcing with subcontracting , where the primary vendor involves other/secondary vendors in the project, and (iii) Multi-Sourcing, where the client outsources to multiple primary vendors. Using a dataset of large IT outsourcing contracts from the SCD database with 22,031 lar...

The effect of lattice mismatch on the chemical ordering of epitaxial FePt films was studied. The results showed that the lattice constant scd of the FePt films decreased with increasing lattice mismatch « from about 2.23% to 6.33%. Upon further increase of « to about 8.8%, c increased. On the other hand, the variation of the lattice constant sad of the FePt films showed a reversal behavior to t...

Let Nn denote the quotient poset of the Boolean lattice, Bn, under the relation equivalence under rotation. Griggs, Killian, and Savage proved that Np is a symmetric chain order for prime p. In this paper, we settle the question of whether this poset is a symmetric chain order for all n by providing an algorithm that produces a symmetric chain decompostion (or SCD). We accomplish this by modify...

Differential 2.2μm (K-band) luminosity functions are presented for a complete sample of 1570 nearby (Vgsr ≤ 3000 km/s, where Vgsr is the velocity measured with respect to the Galactic standard of rest), bright (K ≤ 10 mag), galaxies segregated by visible morphology. The K-band luminosity function for late-type spirals follows a power law that rises towards low luminosities whereas the K-band lu...

Data warehouse systems integrate data from heterogeneous sources. These sources are autonomous in nature and change independently of a data warehouse. Owing to changes in data sources, the content and the schema of a data warehouse may need to be changed for accurate decision making. Slowly changing dimensions and temporal data warehouses are the available solutions to manage changes in the con...

the streets, take to swimming, take over, Old, Although this ,'tl)proach proves effective in parsing and in generation, there are two acute problems which still require solutions. First, due to the huge size of the phrasal lexicon, cspeciaIly when considering subtle meanings and idiosyncratic behavior of phrases, encoding of ]exical entries cannot be done manually. Thus, phrase acquisition must...
