The concept of a generalized constraint is introduced and as means of representing different kinds of information. The measurement of the amount of information contained in these constraints is then considered. First we consider possibilistic constraints, those in which the associated variable can take on only one value and show that the measure of specificity provides the appropriate measure. We then provide a measure of information in a fuzzy graph. We next turn to veristic constraints, those in which the associated variable can assume multiple values, and show that the associated measure of information is the negation of the measure of fuzziness. Finally we discuss the idea that their can exist some uncertainty associated with the variable in a generalized constraint and provide some measure of the information about the variable.

The observed diminution in photosynthetic efficiency upon vitamin B12 limitation in Monochrysis indicates that nutrient limitation may profoundly influence the photosynthetic status of a natural population and must therefore be taken into account in productivity studies (Droop et al. 1982). It also suggests that photosynthetic efficiency could be used as a criterion between nutrient and light control of growth in natural populations. However, measurement of photosynthetic efficiency is cumbersome under field conditions and it would be advantageous if some other associated variable more quickly measured, such as, e.g. in vivo chlorophyll a fluorescence, could be used as a reliable indicator.


The most critical tools for fine-grained opinion extraction are opinion goals and opinion terms extracted from on-line comments. The key part of this process is to identify the connection between terms. To do this, the Word Alignment Model (WAM) was introduced in which the associated variable can be identified by word alignment by an opinion goal. Nevertheless, its ability to extract opinion words was less successful. In order to determine opinion connections as a process of alignment, the partially supervised Word Alienation Model (PSWAM) has therefore been created. Then a visual co-ranking algorithm was implemented together with the Opinion Relationship Map, to model all the candidates and to measure the confidence of each voter by defining their opinion. In addition, higher-confidence candidates were extracted as opinions or opinions. This method, though, involves an added kind of interaction with terms such as topical connections in graphic thought. Therefore the current relationship is assumed in this report in order to model the applicants and derive the feelings, views and opinions. The efficiency of co-extracting thoughts, viewpoints and issues is enhanced effectively by using this method. The experimental results further indicate that compared to the existing paradigm, the efficiency of the proposed model.

The main purpose of this paper is to examine two commonly used alternatives to traditional repricing (TR) of executive stock options (ESOs) in a dynamic agency model. TR practices have become obsolete since new accounting rules took effect in July 2000. To avoid associated variable accounting charges that cause uncertainty in future reported earnings, companies have tried several TR alternatives as solutions to rescuing underwater options. We justify the occurrence of TR alternatives and quantify the impact of the marking-to-market feature imbedded in the new accounting rules. We also propose an incentive measure which is comparable to the subjective value of ESOs claimed by Ingersoll, J (2006) to rank TR alternatives in terms of agent's incentive.

This study reports the results of eliminating the waiting list for a one month period in 1985 upon the referrals made to an out-patient Child and Family Clinic. The Clinic receives most of it's referrals from community physicians and agencies. The study was carried out amidst a background of an increasing number of referrals. Fifty-nine referrals, mainly families, were received. Among those who were referred and seen, most (58 percent) accepted the offer of a no wait appointment and completed the referral within about one week. A smaller number (17 percent) did not respond to such an offer but later completed the referral. Thus, 76 percent of the referrals overall were completed within 6 months. This was essentially the same as the completion rate for a comparison sample in 1984 (77 percent). The kinds of problems found among these two groups, as well as among the “non-completers” was analysed. One trend was that cases involving family dysfunction tend to show early or not at all. Overall, the large percentage (60 percent) of families with histories of separation problems as an associated variable, suggested this as a possible explanation for the increasing number of referrals in recent years.

AbstractThe article deals with the possible application of the Solver optimization module to solving the single-circuit transport problems. First, the article describes the single-circuit transport problems and the optimization module Solver itself. Using the specific model example of beer distribution, the author demonstrates the algorithm which may be applied to solving single-circuit transport problems by means of Solver. The travel route designed by Solver is then compared with the originally proposed route. The values being compared include the total length of travel routes created and the associated variable costs spent on serving customers and also route design time. Thus, using the practical example of beer distribution, the manuscript has demonstrated the algorithm which is used for addressing the single-circuit transport problems. Nonetheless, possible application of the Solver tool is not limited to seeking a solution to the travelling salesman problem only. It can also be implemented even to discussing the multi-circuit transport problems with various confinements.

In the threespine stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus) three plate morphs, controlled by major genes, are easily distinguished: the low-plated, partially plated, and completely plated morphs. We give the results of a geographic survey for these morphs, with 177 samples from New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and adjacent regions. The low-plated morph is virtually absent. Most sites are either monomorphic for the completely plated morph or polymorphic with high frequencies of that morph. Polymorphic sites are most frequent in fresh water where the frequency of partials is much higher. Polymorphic sites are also more than twice as frequent on Prince Edward Island than on the mainland. But sites with high frequencies of the partial morph, with one exception, occur only on the mainland. Populations with high frequencies of partials predominate in lakes and their tributaries near the sea. Hybridization between the low-plated leiurus and completely plated trachurus cannot account for most of the polymorphism in North America. The global distribution of plate morphs shows an association with climate, and the virtual absence of the low-plated morph in this survey can be accounted for by the action of climatic selection or an associated variable.
