Operational Complexity

by Copyright Robert, A. Mahaney, Research Article, Robert A. Mahaney, Robert A. Mahaney
"... Archaeologists and animal behaviorists have provided increasingly sophisticated descriptions of how hominids and animals construct operational sequences. The ability to translate these detailed descriptions into a measureable, comparative format of relative complexity would provide a useful tool for ..."

Operator Complex by

by Brigitte Elke Raumann, Brigitte Elke Raumann
"... Bacteriophage P22 Arc repressor is a ribbon-helix-helix DNA-binding protein which specifically recognizes DNA using an antiparallel p-sheet. To gain a better understanding of how Arc recognizes its operator, I have solved the cocrystal structure of the Arc repressor-operator complex and characterize ..."

The book was conceived in late Spring 1986 in the Valley of the Moon in Sonoma County, California. The actual writing lasted

Data cube: A relational aggregation operator generalizing group-by, cross-tab, and sub-totals

by Jim Gray, Adam Bosworth, Andrew Layman, Don Reichart, Hamid Pirahesh , 1996
"... Abstract. Data analysis applications typically aggregate data across many dimensions looking for anomalies or unusual patterns. The SQL aggregate functions and the GROUP BY operator produce zero-dimensional or one-dimensional aggregates. Applications need the N-dimensional generalization of these op ..."

in more complex non-procedural data analysis programs. The cube operator treats each of the N aggregation attributes as a dimension of N-space. The aggregate of a particular set of attribute values is a point in this space. The set of points forms an N-dimensional cube. Super-aggregates are computed

The unity and diversity of executive functions and their contributions to complex “Frontal Lobe” tasks: a latent variable analysis

by Akira Miyake, Naomi P. Friedman, Michael J. Emerson, Alexander H. Witzki, Amy Howerter, Tor D. Wager - COGNIT PSYCHOL , 2000
"... This individual differences study examined the separability of three often postulated executive functions—mental set shifting ("Shifting"), information updating and monitoring ("Updating"), and inhibition of prepotent responses ("Inhibition")—and their roles in complex ..."

The x-Kernel: An Architecture for Implementing Network Protocols

by Norman C. Hutchinson, Larry L. Peterson - IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering , 1991
"... This paper describes a new operating system kernel, called the x-kernel, that provides an explicit architecture for constructing and composing network protocols. Our experience implementing and evaluating several protocols in the x-kernel shows that this architecture is both general enough to acc ..."

Universally composable security: A new paradigm for cryptographic protocols

by Ran Canetti , 2013
"... We present a general framework for representing cryptographic protocols and analyzing their security. The framework allows specifying the security requirements of practically any cryptographic task in a unified and systematic way. Furthermore, in this framework the security of protocols is preserved ..."
Abstract - Cited by 833 (37 self) - Add to MetaCart
is preserved under a general protocol composition operation, called universal composition. The proposed framework with its security-preserving composition operation allows for modular design and analysis of complex cryptographic protocols from relatively simple building blocks. Moreover, within this framework

Hierarchical Models of Object Recognition in Cortex

by Maximilian Riesenhuber, Tomaso Poggio , 1999
"... The classical model of visual processing in cortex is a hierarchy of increasingly sophisticated representations, extending in a natural way the model of simple to complex cells of Hubel and Wiesel. Somewhat surprisingly, little quantitative modeling has been done in the last 15 years to explore th ..."

A Compositional Approach to Performance Modelling

by Jane Hillston , 1996
"... Performance modelling is concerned with the capture and analysis of the dynamic behaviour of computer and communication systems. The size and complexity of many modern systems result in large, complex models. A compositional approach decomposes the system into subsystems that are smaller and more ea ..."

OBB-Tree: A hierarchical structure for rapid interference detection

by S. Gottschalk, M. C. Lint, D. Manocha - PROC. ACM SIGGRAPH, 171–180 , 1996
"... We present a data structure and an algorithm for efficient and exact interference detection amongst complex models undergoing rigid motion. The algorithm is applicable to all general polygonal and curved models. It pre-computes a hierarchical representation of models using tight-fitting oriented bo ..."
