Rotating combined queueing (RCQ)
Network service guarantees not only provide significant performance benefits to distributed computing systems (more balanced resource utilization, fast fault recovery, and fair network access), but they are also essential for many new applications requiring real-time communications with continuous data types (audio/video).

The use of the RCQ-D in patients with poly drug abuse
Aim: The transtheoretical model is often used in substance abuse treatment planning. For polydrug abusing patients, operationalizing the stages of change is more difficult, as their readiness to change may differ depending on the substances. It was the aim of this study to investigate if the same structure of the Dutch Readiness to Change Questionnaire

RCQ-GA: RDF Chain Query Optimization Using Genetic Algorithms
The application of Semantic Web technologies in an Electronic Commerce environment implies a need for good support tools. Fast query engines are needed for efficient querying of large amounts of data, usually represented using RDF. We focus on optimizing a special class of SPARQL queries, the so-called RDF chain queries.

RCQ-ACS: RDF Chain Query Optimization Using an Ant Colony System
In order to effectively and efficiently disclose the ever-growing amount of widely distributed RDF data to demanding users in real-time environments, RDF query engines need to optimize the join order of partial query results. For this, a two-phase optimization (2PO) algorithm and a genetic algorithm (GA) have already been proposed.

Valid and constructive thoughts: Continuing the dialog about the RCQ
This brief essay continues the ongoing controversy over the status of the Role Category Questionnaire as a measure of cognitive complexity. The central thesis advanced is that several theoretical and methodological issues regarding the RCQ are still unanswered and await empirical investigation. The dozens of studies typically cited bv proponents of the
