Relaxed index consistency for a client-server database

Proceedings of the Twelfth International Conference on Data Engineering, 2002
Client-server systems cache data in client buffers to deliver good performance. Several efficient protocols have been proposed to maintain the coherence of the cached data. However, none of the protocols distinguish between index pages and data pages.

Syntagmatic relationships and indexing consistency on a larger scale

Journal of Documentation, 2008
PurposeThe purpose of this article is to examine interindexer consistency on a larger scale than other studies have done to determine if group consensus is reached by larger numbers of indexers and what, if any, relationships emerge between assigned terms.Design/methodology/approachIn total, 64 MLIS students were recruited to assign up to five terms to

A note on the eigenvalue consistency index

Applied Mathematics and Computation, 1980
In this paper we show the relation between the eigenvalue consistency index and cycles of length k in a complete directed graph. Cardinal consistency, which requires the introduction of a scale to represent the degree of preferences among different alternatives, is discussed, and a new index to measure this concept is derived.

V-index an index based on consistent researcher productivity

INMIC, 2013
In the current era, tremendous amount of scientific research work is published by thousands of researchers annually. Different methods have been proposed for researcher productivity indexing based on quantity and quality of publications. Unfortunately, none of them considered the variation among the number of citations received by a researcher for his ...

Inter‐indexer consistency in graphic materials indexing at the National Library of Wales

Journal of Documentation, 2011
– This paper seeks to report a project to investigate the degree of inter‐indexer consistency in the assignment of controlled vocabulary topical subject index terms to identical graphical images by different indexers at the National Library of Wales (NLW)., – An experimental quantitative methodology was devised to investigate inter‐indexer consistency.

A practical approaches to decrease the consistency index in AHP

2014 Joint 7th International Conference on Soft Computing and Intelligent Systems (SCIS) and 15th International Symposium on Advanced Intelligent Systems (ISIS), 2014
The Consistency is the most important measurement of the results from pairwise comparison in the AHP. Pairwise comparison is a method to calculate the weights for each element in order to perform a comparison of two advantages. The consistency of the AHP will be determined by the value of C.I. from the pairwise comparison table. If its value is for the

On consistent initial conditions for circuit's DAEs with higher index

IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems I: Fundamental Theory and Applications, 2001
Summary: We study efficient numerical methods for obtaining consistent initial conditions for systems of differential-algebraic equations (DAEs) with higher index arising e.g., from electronic circuits. We show that the class of Gear's backward differentiation formulas, unlike other multi-step techniques, are useful means for obtaining consistent ...

Influence of Dissimulation on Indexes of Response Consistency for the MMPI

Psychological Reports, 1985
Whether indexes of consistent responding on the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) measured dissimulation versus random responding was evaluated with Veterans Administration Medical Center psychiatric patients who were applying for disability benefits.

Wage Indexation and the Time Consistency of Government Policy

The Scandinavian Journal of Economics, 1995
Summary: This paper concerns the role of wage indexation as a mechanism for enabling an economy to achieve outcomes which would not otherwise be time consistent. The desirability of indexation depends on the size of real and nominal shocks, and on a policymaker's incentives for short run inflation surprises.

The Policy Modeling Research Consistency Index (PMC-Index)

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2010
This paper will present a new definition and classification about policy modeling. Additionally, this paper proposes a new index is entitled “The Policy Modeling Research Consistency Index (PMC) Index.” There are four basic phases in the implementation of PMC-Index. The first phase is the using of multi-input-output table.
