Observation of the Semileptonic Decay D0→a0(980)−e+νe and Evidence for D+→a0(980)0e+νe

2018

Using an e(+)e(-) collision data sample of 2.93 fb(-1) collected at a center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV by the BESIII detector at BEPCII, we report the observation of D-0 -> a(0)(980)(-)e(+)nu( ...

REVIEW OF R MEASUREMENTS

2013

We review the status of R measurements in the energy range below 12 GeV, where recently a major progress has been achieved recently. These measurements are phenomenologically motivated by their impact on precision QCD and on electroweak parameters. We also report on improved results which can be expected in near future from presently running or upcoming facilities.

Next-to-next-to-leading order corrections to three-jet observables in electron-positron annihilation.

2008

I report on a numerical program, which can be used to calculate any infrared safe three-jet observable in electron-positron annihilation to next-to-next-to-leading order in the strong coupling constant ${\ensuremath{\alpha}}_{s}$. The results are compared to a recent calculation by another group. Numerical differences in three color factors are discussed and explained.

Seaweed fails to prevent ocean acidification impact on foraminifera along a shallow-water CO2 gradient

2015

Ocean acidification causes biodiversity loss, alters ecosystems, and may impact food security, as shells of small organisms dissolve easily in corrosive waters. There is a suggestion that photosynthetic organisms could mitigate ocean acidification on a local scale, through seagrass protection or seaweed cultivation, as net ecosystem organic production raises the saturation state of calcium carbonate making seawater less corrosive. Here, we used a natural gradient in calcium carbonate saturation, caused by shallow-water CO2 seeps in the Mediterranean Sea, to assess whether seaweed that is resistant to acidification (Padina pavonica) could prevent adverse effects of acidification on epiphytic…

GRAPH-BASED RULES FOR XML DATA CONVERSION TO OWL ONTOLOGY

2010

International audience; The paper presents a flexible method to enrich and populate an existing OWL ontology from XML data based on graph-based rules. These rules are defined in order to populate automatically a new version of an OWL ontology. Today, most of data exchanged between information systems is done with the help of the XML document. Leading researches in the domain of database systems are moving to semantic model in order to store data and its semantics definition. This flexible method consists in populating an existing OWL ontology from XML data. In paper we present such a method based on the definition of a graph which represents rules that drive the populating process.

The application of AI techniques in the optimal design of multi-pass cold drawing processes

2001

Abstract In the paper the problem of optimal pass schedule design in multi-pass wire drawing process is investigated. An automatic design procedure based on an effective artificial intelligence (AI) technique, namely simulated annealing (SA), is proposed. The developed algorithm is aimed to achieve a satisfactory balance of the drawing stresses on the material along the reduction sequence, maintaining in the meantime the drawing stress at each pass below a safety value. In this way both the optimal number of passes and the optimal drawing sequence are determined. The effectiveness of the design procedure is tested through the comparison of the sequences suggested by the algorithm with a set…

Integrating Cross-Dominance Adaptation in Multi-objective Memetic Algorithms

2008

This chapter proposes a novel adaptive memetic approach for solving multi-objective optimization problems. The proposed approach introduces the novel concept of crossdominance and employs this concept within a novel probabilistic scheme which makes use of the Wigner distribution for performing coordination of the local search. Thus, two local searchers are integrated within an evolutionary framework which resorts to an evolutionary algorithm previously proposed in literature for solving multi-objective problems. These two local searchers are a multi-objective version of simulated annealing and a novel multi-objective implementation of the Rosenbrock algorithm.

AN OBJECT ORIENTED MODEL FOR SCHEDULING IN AGILE MANUFACTURING

2002

Agility represents a key factor in industry to handle the continuous market changes. Companies must re-organize their activities to be agile and competitive in such a dynamic environment. In particular, production planning and control tools are very important to optimize the manufacturing process responsiveness to sudden changes in customer demand. In this paper, an attempt has been made to develop an object-oriented software architecture that allows the optimal line organization to be determined once a set of parts to be produced has been ordered. An optimization module represented by a simulated annealing algorithm has been interfaced with an object oriented architecture to build up a fr…
