Psychological Assessment, 2012
Five studies document the validity of a new 8-item scale designed to measure positivity, defined as the tendency to view life and experiences with a positive outlook. In the first study (N = 372), the psychometric properties of Positivity Scale (P Scale) were examined in accordance with classical test theory using a large number of college participants.

Numerical Algorithms, 2004
The authors develop an algorithm (BIN) for diagonally scale a symmetric matrix by a fast iterative binormalization technique. The convergence properties of this algorithm and the possible relation to optimal conditioning of the matrix are investigated. Analogous algorithms, for nonsymmetric and rectangular matrices are also developed. The conclusion of

A scaled teleoperation_time scaling problem
Advanced Robotics, 1993_This paper discusses a basic system which realizes scaled manipulation. Tools for scaled manipulation are necessary when we manipulate an extremely large or small size target. This type of tool has to scale size and force up or down in a bilateral way, but time scaling should also be considered in order to build up an ideal environment such that we ...

A NEW SCALE FOR THE MANIC-DEPRESSIVENESS SCALE
Psychological Reports, 2003In a sample of 503 undergraduates, a newly proposed subscale for the Manic–Depressiveness Scale is more strongly associated with depression scores than with manic scores.

Scale is recognized as a central concept in the description of the hierarchical organization of our world. Pressing environmental and societal problems require an understanding of how processes operate at different scales, and how they can be linked across scales.

In social sciences the term“scaling” encompasses specific processes tomeasure properties such as sentiment, opinions, attitudes, and so on. “To scale” can mean very different things: by scaling techniques such as Likert scales or Guttman scales the researcher can rank people along a specific dimension; other techniques, if the requirements for their ...

On Measurement, Scale, and Scaling
Water Resources Research, 1986The relationships between measurement, scale, and scaling are discussed and analyzed in detail. It is pointed out that only certain fundamental properties can be measured and that these properties do not include constitutive variables. The interrelationships between scale and measurement are shown to manifest themselves in two types of heterogeneity ...

Proceedings of the 28th Annual ACM Symposium on Applied Computing, 2013
This paper presents an implementation -driven by Service Level Agreement (SLA)- of Cloud auto-scaling based on demand. Simulation experiments indicate that our model successfully keeps the best trade-off between SaaS provider profit and customer satisfaction without requiring manual calibration such as in Amazon Auto-Scaling.
