Transboundary Management Of Transitional Waters – Code Of Conduct And Good Practice Examples, Henrik Nilsson, Ramūnas Povilanskas, Nardine Stybel Jan 2012

Transboundary Management Of Transitional Waters – Code Of Conduct And Good Practice Examples, Henrik Nilsson, Ramūnas Povilanskas, Nardine Stybel

ARTWEI

Transitional waters have the ecological peculiarity of being both very fragile and resilient at the same time. The degradation of the transitional waters and the decline of their economic value arise from the excessive use of the resources, external input of pollutants mostly brought by large tributaries and from the mismanagement of the adjacent areas. The EU Water Framework Directive has accelerated the transboundary co-operation and development of spatially integrative management approaches in the south Baltic transitional waters. A high-level political committment in countries sharing a transitional water body, a professional agency, a stakeholders‘ forum and regular funding is the …

Parsing Combinatory Categorial Grammar Via Planning In Answer Set Programming, Yuliya Lierler, Peter Schueller Jan 2012

Parsing Combinatory Categorial Grammar Via Planning In Answer Set Programming, Yuliya Lierler, Peter Schueller

Computer Science Faculty Books and Monographs

Essay, Parsing Combinatory Categorial Grammar via Planning in Answer Set Programming, from Correct reasoning: essays on logic-based AI in honour of Vladimir Lifschitz, co-authored by Yuliya Lierler, UNO faculty member. Combinatory categorial grammar (CCG) is a grammar formalism used for natural language parsing. CCG assigns structured lexical categories to words and uses a small set of combinatory rules to combine these categories to parse a sentence. In this work we propose and implement a new approach to CCG parsing that relies on a prominent knowledge representation formalism, answer set programming (ASP) - a declarative programming paradigm. We formulate the …

Distributed Simulated Annealing With Mapreduce, Atanas Radenski Jan 2012

Distributed Simulated Annealing With Mapreduce, Atanas Radenski

Mathematics, Physics, and Computer Science Faculty Books and Book Chapters

Simulated annealing’s high computational intensity has stimulated researchers to experiment with various parallel and distributed simulated annealing algorithms for shared memory, message-passing, and hybrid-parallel platforms. MapReduce is an emerging distributed computing framework for large-scale data processing on clusters of commodity servers; to our knowledge, MapReduce has not been used for simulated annealing yet. In this paper, we investigate the applicability of MapReduce to distributed simulated annealing in general, and to the TSP in particular. We (i) design six algorithmic patterns of distributed simulated annealing with MapReduce, (ii) instantiate the patterns into MR implementations to solve a sample TSP problem, and …

Arithmetic, Lawrence Leemis

Arts & Sciences Book Chapters

Transitioning to Calculus is a comprehensive compilation of the mathematical concepts and formulas that are required of students entering their first class in calculus. The essentials of arithmetic, algebra, geometry, analytic geometry, trigonometry, and complex variables are organized into separate chapters. The purpose of this book is to provide a succinct but comprehensive list of the topics required of students entering calculus. Over 100 figures highlight the intuitive and geometric aspects of the formulas and concepts. Each chapter ends with a series of exercises (with space provided for working out a solution) that are designed to reinforce the application of …
