Domain names - Implementation and Specification

by P. Mockapetris - RFC-883, USC/Information Sciences Institute , 1983
"... This RFC describes the details of the domain system and protocol, and assumes that the reader is familiar with the concepts discussed in a companion RFC, "Domain Names- Concepts and Facilities " [RFC-1034]. The domain system is a mixture of functions and data types which are an official pr ..."

Stock Market Prices Do Not Follow Random Walks: Evidence from a Simple Specification Test

by Andrew W. Lo, A. Craig MacKinlay - REVIEW OF FINANCIAL STUDIES , 1988
"... In this article we test the random walk hypothesis for weekly stock market returns by comparing variance estimators derived from data sampled at different frequencies. The random walk model is strongly rejected for the entire sample period (1962--1985) and for all subperiod for a variety of aggrega ..."

of aggregate returns indexes and size-sorted portofolios. Although the rejections are due largely to the behavior of small stocks, they cannot be attributed completely to the effects of infrequent trading or timevarying volatilities. Moreover, the rejection of the random walk for weekly returns does

DSR: The Dynamic Source Routing Protocol for Multi-Hop Wireless Ad Hoc Networks”, in Ad Hoc Networking, edited by Charles E.

by David B Johnson , David A Maltz , Josh Broch - Perkins, Chapter , 2001
"... Abstract The Dynamic Source Routing protocol (DSR) is a simple and efficient routing protocol designed specifically for use in multi-hop wireless ad hoc networks of mobile nodes. DSR allows the network to be completely self-organizing and self-configuring, without the need for any existing network ..."

A theory of social comparison processes,”

by Leon Festinger - Human Relations, , 1954
"... In this paper we shall present a further development of a previously published theory concerning opinion influence processes in social groups (7). This further development has enabled us to extend the theory to deal with other areas, in addition to opinion formation, in which social comparison is i ..."

, specifically designed to test predictions from this extension of the theory, have now been completed Hypothesis I: There exists, in the human organism, a drive to evaluate his opinions and his abilities. While opinions and abilities may, at first glance, seem to be quite different things, there is a close

Motivation through the Design of Work: Test of a Theory. Organizational Behavior and Human Performance,

by ] Richard Hackman , Grec R Oldham , 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 ..."

of the theorizing (cf. Porter, Lawler, & Hackman, 1975, Chap. 10). We then propose and report a test of a theory of work redesign that focuses specifically on how the characteristics of jobs and the characteristics of people interact to determine when an "enriched" job will lead to beneficial outcomes

Complexity-effective superscalar processors

by Subbarao Palacharla, J. E. Smith, et al. - IN PROCEEDINGS OF THE 24TH ANNUAL INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON COMPUTER ARCHITECTURE , 1997
"... The performance tradeoff between hardware complexity and clock speed is studied. First, a generic superscalar pipeline is defined. Then the specific areas of register renaming, instruction window wakeup and selection logic, and operand bypassing are ana-lyzed. Each is modeled and Spice simulated for ..."

Equivariant Adaptive Source Separation

by Jean-François Cardoso, Beate Laheld - IEEE Trans. on Signal Processing , 1996
"... Source separation consists in recovering a set of independent signals when only mixtures with unknown coefficients are observed. This paper introduces a class of adaptive algorithms for source separation which implements an adaptive version of equivariant estimation and is henceforth called EASI (Eq ..."
Abstract - Cited by 449 (9 self) - Add to MetaCart
(Equivariant Adaptive Separation via Independence) . The EASI algorithms are based on the idea of serial updating: this specific form of matrix updates systematically yields algorithms with a simple, parallelizable structure, for both real and complex mixtures. Most importantly, the performance of an EASI

Towards Complete Specifications with an Error Calculus

by Quang Loc Le, Asankhaya Sharma, Florin Craciun, Wei-ngan Chin
"... Abstract. We present an error calculus to support a novel specification mechanism for sound and/or complete safety properties that are to be given by users. With such specifications, our calculus can form a foundation for both proving program safety and/or discovering real bugs. The basis of our cal ..."

A framework for learning predictive structures from multiple tasks and unlabeled data

by Rie Kubota Ando, Tong Zhang - JOURNAL OF MACHINE LEARNING RESEARCH , 2005
"... One of the most important issues in machine learning is whether one can improve the performance of a supervised learning algorithm by including unlabeled data. Methods that use both labeled and unlabeled data are generally referred to as semi-supervised learning. Although a number of such methods ar ..."

This paper investigates a closely related problem, which leads to a novel approach to semi-supervised learning. Specifically we consider learning predictive structures on hypothesis spaces (that is, what
