Our proposal is that SOC works with both oral and written language, but results in different products, and that structural differences between these products have great impact on the

For symmetric distributions satisfying some exponential moments condition, we proved that the sum S n of the random variables behaves as in the typical critical generalized

Example 1 (To Publish Music) Let us consider the scenario “To Publish Music”, used as a running example in this section: An organization wants to provide the service based

The survey was administered after the residents had complete the first year of their family medicine residency and asked for the residents’ opinions about the value of EMRs,

This study aims to investigate and evaluate the relevance of test types - as they are administered nowadays in English as a foreign language - to the competency

However, it is worthwhile to point out that they can not inherit all relations between matrix convex and matrix monotone functions, since the class of contin- uous

We show that the func- tion possesses similar desirable properties of the FB SOC complementarity function for local convergence; for example, with the function the second-order

We show that the gradient mapping of the squared norm of Fischer–Burmeister function is globally Lipschitz continuous and semismooth, which provides a theoretical basis for
