Return value adapter pattern

ACM SIGSOFT Software Engineering Notes, 2014
This paper discusses a pattern that happens when the designer of a class is attempting to implement an array subscript operator in C++ using an adapter class for the return value. The return value adapter provides an interface to the caller that gives specialized access to the internal data of the referenced class.

Adaptive Value of Regenerative Ability

Nature, 1961
THE view that the distribution of regenerative ability among and within animals is not correlated with the incidence of loss or damage to their organs, and so with survival value, rests very heavily on the work of Morgan1 on the hermit crab, Eupagurus longicarpus.

Adaptive Denoising by Singular Value Decomposition

IEEE Signal Processing Letters, 2011
This letter presents an adaptive denoising method based on the singular value decomposition (SVD). By incorporating a global subspace analysis into the scheme of local basis selection, the problems of previous adaptive methods are effectively tackled. Experimental results show that the proposed method achieves outstanding preservation of image details,

On Valuing Information in Adaptive‐Management Models

Conservation Biology, 2010
Abstract:  Active adaptive management looks at the benefit of using strategies that may be suboptimal in the near term but may provide additional information that will facilitate better management in the future. In many adaptive‐management problems that have been studied, the optimal active and passive policies (

Adaptive values of bipedalism

American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1967
AbstractThe adaptive significance of the multiple evolution of bipedalism is surveyed and discussed. Probable modes of origin and the relative advantages of saltatorial and alternating gaits are expressed in terms of foot stability, speed of progression, directional changes, control of momentum and overcoming body inertia. It is suggested that analysis

The Value of Adaptive Regret Management in Retirement

The International Journal of Aging and Human Development, 2013
This 3-year longitudinal study examined the associations between regret management, everyday activities, and retirement satisfaction among recent retirees. We hypothesized that the regulation of a severe life regret can facilitate activity engagement and retirement satisfaction, but only if retirees manage their regrets adaptively by either increasing ...

The Value of Adaptability [PDF]

open access: possible, 2004
This paper examines a firm's ability to respond correctly to an unexpected change in the environment (i.e., its adaptability). We develop a model that allows for empirical examination of the impact of a firm's adaptability on its expected profits.

On the adaptive value of Sex

2008
Using computer simulations I studied the conditions under which sex was evolutionary stable. The parameters that showed relevance to the stability of sex were: variable environments, mutation rates, ploidy, number of loci subject to evolution, mate selection strategy and reproductive systems.

Adaptive fuzzy-valued service selection

Proceedings of the 2010 ACM Symposium on Applied Computing, 2010
Service composition concerns both integration of heterogeneous distributed applications and dynamic selection of services. QoS-aware selection enables a service requester with certain QoS requirements to classify services according to their QoS guarantees.

Adaptability of Algorithms for Real-Valued Optimization

2009
We investigate the adaptability of optimization algorithms for the real-valued case to concrete problems via tuning. However, the focus is not primarily on performance, but on the tuning potential of each algorithm/problem system, for which we define the empirical tuning potential measure (ETP).
