The role of deliberate practice in the acquisition of expert performance
- Psychological Review
, 1993
"... The theoretical framework presented in this article explains expert performance as the end result of individuals ' prolonged efforts to improve performance while negotiating motivational and external constraints. In most domains of expertise, individuals begin in their childhood a regimen of ef ..."

of effortful activities (deliberate practice) designed to optimize improvement. Individual differences, even among elite performers, are closely related to assessed amounts of deliberate practice. Many characteristics once believed to reflect innate talent are actually the result of intense practice extended
A logic of authentication
- ACM TRANSACTIONS ON COMPUTER SYSTEMS
, 1990
"... Questions of belief are essential in analyzing protocols for the authentication of principals in distributed computing systems. In this paper we motivate, set out, and exemplify a logic specifically designed for this analysis; we show how various protocols differ subtly with respect to the required ..."

-key cryptography and with public-key cryptography. Some of the examples are chosen because of their practical importance, while others serve to illustrate subtle points of the logic and to explain how we use it. We discuss extensions of the logic motivated by actual practice -- for example, in order to account
Investigating the Energy Consumption of a Wireless Network Interface in an Ad Hoc Networking Environment
- In IEEE Infocom
, 2001
"... Energy-aware design and evaluation of network protocols requires knowledge of the energy consumption behavior of actual wireless interfaces. But little practical information is available about the energy consumption behavior of well-known wireless network interfaces and device specifications do not ..."

Motivation through the Design of Work: Test of a Theory. Organizational Behavior and Human Performance,
, 1976
"... A model is proposed that specifies the conditions under which individuals will become internally motivated to perform effectively on their jobs. The model focuses on the interaction among three classes of variables: (a) the psychological states of employees that must be present for internally motiv ..."

psychologists have for many years studied the antecedents and consequences of heightened and depressed levels of psychological and physiological activation in organisms While activation theory clearly has considerable relevance to both the theory and practice of job design, two thorny problems must be dealt
Prudent Engineering Practice for Cryptographic Protocols
- Proc. IEEE Computer Society Symposium on Research in Security and Privacy
, 1994
"... We present principles for the design of cryptographic protocols. The principles are neither necessary nor sufficient for correctness. They are however helpful, in that adherence to them would have avoided a considerable number of published errors. Our principles are informal guidelines. They complem ..."

Actual Practices in Nephropathology: A Survey and Comparison with Best Practices
"... 3 Renal pathology is a specialized field requiring sophisticated tissue evaluation by light, immunofluorescence (IF) and electron microscopy (EM). There are published suggestions for best practices in this area, but actual practices may vary relative to location and need for cost containment. To eva ..."

Power provisioning for a warehousesized computer,”
- ACM SIGARCH Computer Architecture News,
, 2007
"... ABSTRACT Large-scale Internet services require a computing infrastructure that can be appropriately described as a warehouse-sized computing system. The cost of building datacenter facilities capable of delivering a given power capacity to such a computer can rival the recurring energy consumption ..."

costs themselves. Therefore, there are strong economic incentives to operate facilities as close as possible to maximum capacity, so that the non-recurring facility costs can be best amortized. That is difficult to achieve in practice because of uncertainties in equipment power ratings and because power
The SR-tree: An Index Structure for High-Dimensional Nearest Neighbor Queries
, 1997
"... Recently, similarity queries on feature vectors have been widely used to perform content-based retrieval of images. To apply this technique to large databases, it is required to develop multidimensional index structures supporting nearest neighbor queries e ciently. The SS-tree had been proposed for ..."

Hierarchical Modelling and Analysis for Spatial Data. Chapman and Hall/CRC,
, 2004
"... Abstract Often, there are two streams in statistical research -one developed by practitioners and other by main stream statisticians. Development of geostatistics is a very good example where pioneering work under realistic assumptions came from mining engineers whereas it is only now that statisti ..."

The variogram plots should be used as a tool for getting hints on selecting a model and the actual unknown parameters of the model could
