Executive Compensation
, 1999
"... This paper summarizes the empirical and theoretical research on executive compensation and provides a comprehensive and up-to-date description of pay practices (and trends in pay practices) for chief executive officers (CEOs). Topics discussed include the level and structure of CEO pay (including de ..."

Threat Facilitates Subsequent Executive Control During Anxious Mood
"... Dual competition framework (DCF) posits that low-level threat may facilitate behavioral performance by influencing executive control functions. Anxiety is thought to strengthen this effect by enhancing threat’s affective significance. To test these ideas directly, we examined the effects of low-leve ..."

Adapting Golog for composition of semantic web Services
, 2002
"... Motivated by the problem of automatically composing network accessible services, such as those on the World Wide Web, this paper proposes an approach to building agent technology based on the notion of generic procedures and customizing user constraint. We argue that an augmented version of the logi ..."

Our implemented system is currently interacting with services
Probabilistic planning with information gathering and contingent execution.
, 1993
"... Abstract One way of coping with uncertainty in the world is to build plans that include actions that will produce information about the world when executed, and constrain the execution of subsequent steps in the plan to depend on that information. Literature on decision making discusses the concept ..."

Evaluating Probabilistic Queries over Imprecise Data
- In SIGMOD
, 2003
"... Sensors are often employed to monitor continuously changing entities like locations of moving ob-jects and temperature. The sensor readings are reported to a database system, and are subsequently used to answer queries. Due to continuous changes in these values and limited resources (e.g., net-work ..."

A Fast Automaton-Based Method for Detecting Anomalous Program Behaviors
- In Proceedings of the 2001 IEEE Symposium on Security and Privacy
, 2001
"... Forrest et al introduced a new intrusion detection approach that identifies anomalous sequences of system calls executed by programs. Since their work, anomaly detection on system call sequences has become perhaps the most successful approach for detecting novel intrusions. A natural way for learnin ..."

DAISY: Dynamic Compilation for 100% Architectural Compatibility
, 1997
"... Although VLIW architectures offer the advantages of simplicity of design and high issue rates, a major impediment to their use is that they are not compatible with the existing software base. We describe new simple hardware features for a VLIW machine we call DAISY (Dynamically Architected Instructi ..."

Subsequent executions of the same fragment do not require a translation (unless cast out). We discuss the architectural
Stock prices and top management changes
- Journal of Financial Economics
, 1988
"... This p~er studies the association between a finn's stock returns and subsequent top management chAMes. Con~ieut w~th mmml monitoring of management, there is an inverse relation between the probability of a management change and a firm's share performance. ~ relation can result from monitor ..."

between a firm's stock price perfor-mance and subsequent changes in its top management. A top management change is defined as any change in the set of individuals holding the title of chief executive officer (CEO), president, or chairman of the board. The major hypothesis is that the probability of a

Dissociable executive functions in the dynamic control of behavior: inhibition, error detection, and correction
- Neuroimage

Using a GO/NOGO task optimized to produce response inhibitions, frequent commission errors, and the opportunity for subsequent behavioral correction, we identified distinct ..."
