Rediscovering The Constitution, Jack Tsen-Ta Lee
Rediscovering The Constitution, Jack Tsen-Ta Lee
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
The fundamental liberties in our Constitution involve a study of tensions: between an individual's rights and the community's interests, between the role of the judiciary on the one hand and the executive and legislature on the other. How we should interpret them depends on where we think equilibrium should be established. This depends on two main factors. The first is the proper function of the judiciary as laid down by our Constitution, which is discussed in Part I of this article. The second is the nature of our fundamental liberties, for they are worded with varying degrees of generality. ... …

On any view, Hart is one of (if not the) leading jurists in Anglo-American legal philosophy this century. His central work, The Concept of Law,' is prescribed reading in virtually every jurisprudence course around the world. He has also been involved in the most famous debates in Anglo-American legal philosophy: the Hart-Fuller debate on the separation of law from morality; 2 the Hart-Devlin debate on the enforcement of morals;3 and the Hart-Dworkin debate on judicial discretion 4 -and it ought to be mentioned that it was precisely these debates that forced all three of these jurists to construct their own …

Oh, The Times They Are A Changin: The Quiet (R)Evolution Revealed, Nadja Alexander
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
One wonders if John Rhoades was thinking about lawyers when this was written.Unfortunately (for innovative law teachers at leas~) lawyers often' have a reputation forbeing staid and conservative. Only the passage of time and re-education of lawyers, lawstudents and the public can hope to alter this perception. As role models, law teachers caninfluence students' sense of worth, attitudes, ethics, and professional expectationsenormously. Often this potential sphere of influence is exercised unconsciously, if not,neglected. As a role model, teachers have the perfect opportunity to communicate to theirstudents why their discipline is exciting and why it is worthy of commitment.

ucian Humanism" in 1989, the objective of which was "to explore Confucian ethics as a common intellectual discourse in East Asia from a multidisciplinary and cross-cultural perspective" (p. vii), this volume offers a summary of the three-day event. If one were looking for "essays" on Confucian ethics, one would not find them here. With one exception where a participant sent in a written clarification, the report is based on recordings of the wide-ranging discussions that transpired at the workshop. What one will find are serious and often provocative reflections on a complex phenomenon by a group of eminent scholars from …
Multiple Query Optimization With Depth-First Branch-And-Bound And Dynamic Query Ordering, Ee Peng Lim, Ahmet Cosar, Jaideep Srivastava
Multiple Query Optimization With Depth-First Branch-And-Bound And Dynamic Query Ordering, Ee Peng Lim, Ahmet Cosar, Jaideep Srivastava
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
In certain database applications such as deductive databases, batch query processing, and recursive query processing etc., usually a single query gets transformed into a set of closely related database queries. Also, great benefits can be obtained by executing a group of related queries all together in a single unified multi-plan instead of executing each query separately. In order to achieve this Multiple Query Optimization (MQO) identifies common task(s) (e.g. common subexpressions, joins, etc.) among a set of query plans and creates a single unified plan (multi-plan) which can be executed to obtain the required outputs for all queries at once. …

Improved Tau Polarisation Measurement, D. Buskulic, M. Thulasidas
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Using 22 pb−1 of data collected at LEP in 1992 on the peak of the Z resonance, the ALEPH collaboration has measured the polarisation of the tau leptons decaying intoevv¯,μvv¯evv¯,μvv¯,πν, ρν and a1 ν from their individual decay product distributions. The measurement of the tau polarisation as a function of the production polar angle yields the two parametersN τ andN e, where, in terms of the axial and vector couplingsg Al andg Vl,N l=2g Vl gAl/(g 2Vl+g2Al). This analysis follows to a large extent the methods devised for the 1990 and 1991 data but with improvements which bring a better …
Adaptive Resonance Associative Map, Ah-Hwee Tan
Adaptive Resonance Associative Map, Ah-Hwee Tan
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
This article introduces a neural architecture termed Adaptive Resonance Associative Map (ARAM) that extends unsupervised Adaptive Resonance Theory (ART) systems for rapid, yet stable, heteroassociative learning. ARAM can be visualized as two overlapping ART networks sharing a single category field. Although ARAM is simpler in architecture than another class of supervised ART models known as ARTMAP, it produces classification performance equivalent to that of ARTMAP. As ARAM network structure and operations are symmetrical, associative recall can be performed in both directions. With maximal vigilance settings, ARAM encodes pattern pairs explicitly as cognitive chunks and thus guarantees perfect storage and recall …
Beyond Pepper V. Hart: The Legislative Reform Of Statutory Interpretation In Singapore, Robert C. Beckman, Andrew B.L. Phang
Beyond Pepper V. Hart: The Legislative Reform Of Statutory Interpretation In Singapore, Robert C. Beckman, Andrew B.L. Phang
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
One of the major controversies in the area of statutory interpretation has centred on the use of parliamentary materials as extrinsic aids by courts in interpreting legislation. The English courts long prohibited any reference to parliamentary materials.' Legislation was passed in Australia in the 1980s to allow liberal reference to parliamentary materials in the courts. More recently, a seminal decision of the House of Lords in 1992 in Pepper (Inspector of Taxes) v. Hart' introduced significant flexibility into the hitherto rigid proscription followed in the English courts, although it did not go as far as the legislative reforms in Australia. …

Knowledge-Based Safety Training System (Kbsts): A Prototype Implementation, Venky Shankararaman, B. S. Lee
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
A computer-based safety training system for process operators must be able to make effective presentation of textual material, test the trainee's understanding through quizzes and facilitate plant simulation. The general framework of such a system is presented in an earlier paper (Computers in Industry, Vol. 17, 1991, pp. 349–358). In this paper, we discuss the development and implementation of a prototype Knowledge-Based Safety Training System based on the framework. The design philosophy, system architecture and the plant modelling methodology are described.
The Ambiguity Of Accountability: Deaths In Custody, And The Regulation Of Police Power, Mark Findlay
The Ambiguity Of Accountability: Deaths In Custody, And The Regulation Of Police Power, Mark Findlay
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
Policing is power. Police authority relies on transactions or relationships of power and influence. The nature of that authority depends on, and takes its form from specific environments of opportunity. Opportunity is, in turn, designated by the aspirations for such relationships, and structures and processes at work towards their regulation. Police authority can be confirmed either legitimately or illegitimately, depending on its context. Essential to the operation of police authority are the "boundaries of permission" which designate the dominion of police power. A principal regulator of police authority, and therefore an important mechanism whereby boundaries of permission are determined, is …

An Empirical Study On End Users' Update Performance For Different Abstraction Levels, Hock Chuan Chan, Kwok Kee Wei, Keng Siau
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Recent laboratory experiments have shown a strong tendency that database users can perform better at the conceptual level than at the logical level. The experiments measured users’ performance for the tasks of database design and database retrieval. Besides database design and retrieval, the third major database task is update. User performance for updates has not been measured. With the widespread availability of databases, updates will be done frequently by end-users. This task is gaining in importance as a measure of the usability of a database system. An experiment was conducted to measure the effect of different abstraction levels on user …

Performance Of Combined Diversity Reception And Convolutional Coding For Qdpsk Land Mobile Radio, Huafei Zhou, Robert H. Deng, T. T. Tjhung
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Diversity reception and error correction coding are powerful techniques to combat multipath fading encountered in mobile radio communications. In order to improve the transmission performance of the ?/4-shift QDPSK signal in mobile radio channels, the authors propose a new scheme of combined coding and diversity reception, i.e., combination of diversity reception employing code combining (CC) and convolutional coding employing error-and erasure correction Viterbi decoding. They also consider another combination scheme, i.e., combination of diversity reception employing postdetection maximal ratio combining (MRC) and convolutional coding employing hard decision Viterbi decoding. They theoretically analyze the performance of the schemes taking into account …
Optimum Symbol-By-Symbol Detection Of Uncoded Digital Data Over The Gaussian Channel With Unknown Carrier Phase, Pooi Yuen Kam, Seng Siew Ng, Tock Soon Ng
Optimum Symbol-By-Symbol Detection Of Uncoded Digital Data Over The Gaussian Channel With Unknown Carrier Phase, Pooi Yuen Kam, Seng Siew Ng, Tock Soon Ng
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
A theory of optimum receiver design for symbol-by-symbol detection of an uncoded digital data sequence received over the Gaussian channel with unknown carrier phase is presented. Linear suppressed-carrier modulation is assumed. The work here aims at laying a conceptual foundation for optimum symbol-by-symbol detection, and rectifies existing approaches to the problem. The optimum receiver structure is obtained explicitly for an arbitrary carrier phase model, but its computational requirements are too heavy in general for any practical implementation. In one important special case, namely, the case in which the carrier phase can be treated as a constant over some K+1 symbol …

Learning Orientation, Working Smart, And Effective Selling, Harish Sujan, Barton A. Weitz, Nirmalya Kumar
Learning Orientation, Working Smart, And Effective Selling, Harish Sujan, Barton A. Weitz, Nirmalya Kumar
Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business
Learning and performance goal orientations, two motivational orientations that guide salespeople's behavior, are related to working smart and hard. Working smart is defined as the engagement in activities that serve to develop knowledge of sales situations and utilize this knowledge in selling behavior. It is found that a learning goal orientation motivates working both smart and hard, whereas a performance goal orientation motivates only working hard. The goal orientations also are found to be alterable through supervisory feedback. Furthermore, self-efficacy, sales-people's confidence in their overall selling abilities, is found to moderate some of the relationships with the goal orientations.

Current therapy can induce a long-term remission in half the patients with diffuse lymphomas with a large-cell component (DLLC), but more intensive treatment has the potential to improve outcome. Rearrangement of a novel candidate proto-oncogene, bcl-6, correlates with a favorable clinical outcome in DLLC and may thus serve as a prognostic marker.

Managing Risk In Information Technology Project: A Case Study Of Tradenet, Boon Siong Neo, Kwong Sin Leong
Research Collection School Of Accountancy
The development and implementation of IT (Information Technology) projects are plagued with problems of cost and time overruns, technical inadequacy, inability to meet user requirements, lack of utilization and failure to achieve anticipated benefits. These problems occur to some projects and not to others because 1) IT projects have different profiles of risk, and 2) IT projects risks have been managed more or less effectively. This paper synthesizes the literature into four classes of risks and applies it to evaluate TradeNet, an EDI-based trading system implemented in Singapore in 1989. Through a case study of TradeNet, we derived a typology …
Fallibility And Sequential Decision-Making, Winston T. H. Koh
Fallibility And Sequential Decision-Making, Winston T. H. Koh
Research Collection School Of Economics
Individuals typically make errors in evaluating information. In this paper, we consider a project selection problem, where fallible managers screen projects sequentially, and provide independent opinions on its quality. We compare the relative performance of the hierarchy and polyarchy when η (n > 2) managers are employed to evaluate projects. In addition to generalizing the existing results on the optimal screening standards, I discuss and characterize the optimal organizational size, and how the relative desirability of the two sequential decision processes are affected by changing the project quality. Finally, I also discuss the effect of variable evaluation costs on the optimal …

An Examination Of The Antecedents Of Subjective Career Success Among A Managerial Sample In Singapore, Samuel Aryee, Yue Wah Chay, Hwee Hoon Tan
Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business
Antecedents of subjective career success are examined using data obtained with a questionnaire instrument from managerial employees in Singapore. The choice of antecedents was informed by recent calls to place research on career issues in the context of an individual's life roles. Confirmatory factor analysis (LISREL VII) was used to examine the one-factor and three-factor models hypothesized to underlie the subjective career success data. The results revealed a 3-factor model to have adequate fit statistics - financial and hierarchical success, and career satisfaction. The antecedent sets of human capital, work values, family and structural or work variables accounted for over …

The authors study the determinants of line extension success using data on 75 line extensions of 34 cigarette brands over a 20-year period to investigate the relative effects of brand, extension, and firm characteristics on the incremental market share of brand line extensions. The econometric model also captures the extent of cannibalization of parent brand sales that may have occurred due to the line extension's introduction. The authors also explore the role of a brand's symbolic value as a factor in line extension success. Results indicate that parent brand strength and its symbolic value, early entry timing, a firm's size, …
