I n this study, the Regional Input- Output Structural Decomposition Analysis (I-O SDA) is used to investigate the effects of technological changes on employment in Sistan and Baluchestan Province of Iran during 2006-2011. This paper develops the SDA method to decompose the technological change from two viewpoints of supply and demand for intermediate inputs in each sector. These chan...

OO Concepts for Process Modelling and Simulation — An object-oriented (OO) modelling approach which associates a detailed representation of the process structure and of the transformations that the material in the structure undergoes is presented through the illustrative example of a reactor. The structural decomposition of the process devices gives rise to the concepts of elementary devices an...

Malaysia experienced four major phases of industrialization, with import substitution or export orientation dominating each phases alternatively. Manufacturing sector is important in Malaysia’s industrial development, inducing rapid growth, technology expansion and upgrading labor skill. High growth rates and high technology expansion in these sector resulted in a substantial increase in demand...

We use the k-core decomposition to develop algorithms for the analysis of large scale complex networks. This decomposition, based on a recursive pruning of the least connected vertices, allows to disentangle the hierarchical structure of networks by progressively focusing on their central cores. By using this strategy we develop a general visualization algorithm that can be used to compare the ...

UNLABELLED PRODECOMP (projection decomposition) is an implementation of a multi-way decomposition algorithm for the analysis of two-dimensional projections of high-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance spectra. The newest version, PRODECOMPv3, features a dramatic speedup, more reliable decompositions, a substantial reduction in memory demands, a new graphical user interface and integration int...

In this study, the structural performance of the gravity-type caisson structure is assessed from vibration-based system identification. To achieve the objective, the following approaches are implemented. Firstly, a structural identification algorithm based on the use of vibration characteristics is outlined. Structural stiffness and damping are selected as two key parameters to be identified fo...

We study self adjoint operators of the form Hω = H0 + ∑ ω(n)(δn| · )δn, where the δn’s are a family of orthonormal vectors and the ω(n)’s are independent random variables with absolutely continuous probability distributions. We prove a general structural theorem which provides in this setting a natural decomposition of the Hilbert space as a direct sum of mutually orthogonal closed subspaces th...
