A family of heuristics for agent-based elastic Cloud bag-of-tasks concurrent scheduling [PDF]
, 2013 The scheduling and execution of bag-of-tasks applications (BoTs) in Clouds is performed on sets of virtualized Cloud resources that start being exhausted right after their allocation disregarding whether tasks are being executed. In addition, BoTs may be

Interaction Design and Architecture(s), 2011 The purpose of this research is the identification of a paradigm which fixes the basic concepts and the type of logical relationships between them, whereby direct, govern and evaluate choises on new technologies. The contribution is based on the assumption that the complexity of knowledge is correlated with the complexity of the learning environment ...

Usability and accessibility: usability heuristics in projects for people with disabilities
Projetica, 2019 The aim of this research is to analyze the use of usability heuristics in projects for people with disabilities, investigating the existence of specific heuristics for this purpose. A bibliographic review showed the importance of the coordination between

Performance Triggered Adaptive Model Reduction for Soil Moisture Estimation in Precision Irrigation
International Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Accurate soil moisture information is essential for precise irrigation to enhance water use efficiency. Estimating soil moisture based on limited soil moisture sensors is especially critical for obtaining comprehensive soil moisture information when dealing with large‐scale agricultural fields.

Relative level of occurrence of the principal heuristics in Nigeria property valuation [PDF]
International Journal of Development and Sustainability, 2013 The neglect of the other principal heuristics namely avaialability, representative and positivity in real estate behaviourial property research as against the exclusive focus on anchoring and adjustment heuristics invariably results to a lopsided ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A metastable high‐vacancy concentration layered P3‐type Na0.5Cr0.5Ti0.5O2 negative electrode material has been synthesized from its K analogues P3‐type K0.5Cr0.5Ti0.5O2 using a facile room temperature ion‐exchange method. The P3‐type Na0.5Cr0.5Ti0.5O2 demonstrates a gravimetric capacity of 125 mA h g−1 and high‐rate performance (80% charging in 3 min ...

New efficient constructive heuristics for the hybrid flowshop to minimise makespan: A computational evaluation of heuristics [PDF]
, 2018 This paper addresses the hybrid flow shop scheduling problem to minimise makespan, a well-known scheduling problem for which many constructive heuristics have been proposed in the literature. Nevertheless, the state of the art is not clear due to partial

Neural heuristics for SAT solving [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 We use neural graph networks with a message-passing architecture and an attention mechanism to enhance the branching heuristic in two SAT-solving algorithms. We report improvements of learned neural heuristics compared with two standard human-designed heuristics.

Enhanced Terahertz Spectroscopy of a Monolayer Transition Metal Dichalcogenide
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.An ad‐hoc engineered metallic surface is employed to perform enhanced terahertz spectroscopy of a monolayer transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD). Thanks to a local absorption boost of 104, this technique allows for the extraction of the phonon resonance features and effective permittivity of the 2D material, paving the way for the rational design of ...
