Conditional reasoning in language and logic : transfer of non-logical heuristics?
(University of Hertfordshire, 1997)
Historically, the use of natural language based techniques for the purpose of software specification has tended to result in the production of ambiguous or verbose system descriptions. It is thought that this imprecision ...
The impact of multimedia tutorial on students' learning experience in the public authority for applied education and trainng, Kuwait
(University of Hertfordshire, 1997)
This paper presents the results of an experiment carried out on a random sample of 34 students from The Public Authority for Applied Education And Training (PAAET), Kuwait Higher Education. The experiment aimed at evaluating ...
A study of disjunctive and conjunctive reasoning in formal logic
(University of Hertfordshire, 1997)
When reasoning with statements containing logical connectives in everyday discourse, people sometimes employ reasoning strategies that do not comply with the dictates of logic yet are still sufficient for their purpose. ...
Rhizosphere soil enzymes as indicators of perturbations caused by enzyme substrate addition and inoculation of a genetically modified strain of Pseudomonas fluorescens on wheat seed
(1997)
Comparative assays for determining chitobiosidase, N-acetyl glucosaminidase, acid phosphatase, alkaline phosphatase, phosphodiesterase, aryl 2 sulfatase and urease activities from small samples of soil were developed. The ...
DSP based induction motor torque and parameter identification
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 1997)
A practical induction motor torque and parameter measurement scheme is proposed without using any mechanical sensors. The torque and parameter calciulation is performed by a digital signal processor (DSP) based on measured ...
Design of line/motor side capacitors for PWM CSR-CSI drives to achieve optimal power factor in high power fan/pump applications
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 1997)
Concrete examples (using CSP) of process algebra templates and their children
(University of Hertfordshire, 1997)
This paper describes the concepts of template, class, object and type between processes defined using the process algebra CSP. We are primarily concerned with the issue of reuse and behavioural compatibility, particularly ...
Input efficiency profiling: an application to airlines
(1997)
Data envelopment analysis (DEA) can produce results which lack discrimination, one consequence of this is that a large proportion of decision-making units (DMUs) appear to be efficient. In addition, because it is a radial ...
An investigation into the performance and representation of a stochastic evolutionary neural tree
(Springer Nature, 1997)
The Stochastic Competitive Evolutionary Neural Tree (SCENT) is a new unsupervised neural net that dynamically evolves a representational structure in response to its training data. Uniquely SCENT requires no initial parameter ...
Environmental best practice advisory system for agriculture
(1997)
A computerised informal environmental management system for agriculture is currently being piloted and tested. Based upon the principles of anticipation and prevention the system aims to encourage sound environmental ...
