Partially Ordered

A non-sequential process can be modelled by a partially ordered set. Conversely, one is led to study the properties to be fulfilled by a poset so that it can reasonably be viewed as the model of a non-sequential process. To this end, C.A. Petri has proposed a set of con currency axioms and a related property called D-continuity, a generalised version for partially ordered sets of Dedekind’s completeness property of the real numbers. In this paper we study Petri’s axioms of concurrency and some of their interdependencies. We also derive several characterisations of D-continuity and exhibit its relation with the axioms of concurrency. Furthermore we apply our work to Petri nets: we introduce occurrence nets, some special posets which model the processes of a system net and we present their relations to D-continuity and the axioms of con currency. Finally we identify the class of the system nets whose processes are D-continuous and satisfy the axioms of concurrency.

The Many

AbstractGiven the many types of suboptimality in perception, I ask how one should test for multiple forms of suboptimality at the same time – or, more generally, how one should compare process models that can differ in any or all of the multiple components. In analogy to factorial experimental design, I advocate for factorial model comparison.

New Perspective

The understanding of the interactions between the small metallic particles and ceramic surfaces has been studied by many catalyst scientists. We had developed Scanning Reflection Electron Microscopy technique to study surface structure of MgO hulk cleaved surface and the interaction with the small particle of metals. Resolutions of 10Å has shown the periodic array of surface atomic steps on MgO. The SREM observation of the interaction between the metallic particles and the surface may provide a new perspective on such processes.

New Perspective

This paper describes the concept of teaching articulation through words which have inherent meaning to a child’s life experience, such as a semantically potent word approach. The approach was used with six children. Comparison of pre/post remediation measures indicated that it has promise as a technique for facilitating increased correct phoneme production.

The Relationship

Abstract. Based on responses from 158 reward managers located at the headquarters or subsidiaries of multinational enterprises, the present study examines the relationship between the centralization of reward management decision making and its perceived effectiveness in multinational enterprises. Our results show that headquarters managers perceive a centralized approach as being more effective, while for subsidiary managers this relationship is moderated by the manager’s role identity. Referring to social identity theory, the present study enriches the standardization versus localization debate through a new perspective focusing on psychological processes, thereby indicating the importance of in-group favoritism in headquarters and the influence of subsidiary managers’ role identities on reward management decision making.
