Cybernetic‐scanning management: Utilizing people's and organizations' energies to attain greater efficiency
Carl A. RodriguesTo describe six management thoughts that evolved during the past century in the USA and to link them to the concept of cybernetic‐scanning management (CSM) and to vaguely explore…
Decision – information – time/space
Ludger Overmeyer, Andreas StockThe standard terms of time and space lead to logical contradictions near the borderline of physics. Therefore, we suggest a new term for time and space, which enlarges the…
Applying distance histograms for robust object recognition
Pilar Arques, Francisco A. Pujol, Faraón Llorens, Mar Pujol, Ramón RizoOne of the main goals of vision systems is to recognize objects in real world to perform appropriate actions. This implies the ability of handling objects and, moreover, to know…
On estimation error using maximum entropy density estimates
J.P. Noonan, Prabahan BasuIn many problems involving decision‐making under uncertainty, the underlying probability model is unknown but partial information is available. In some approaches to this problem…
General aspects of the advancement of theory and practices of information systems
Peter P. Kuvyrkov, Sergei K. NaidenovThe important role of functional and structural generalization of informative and communicative processes is considered.
A new universal method for solving all problems of operational research
J.C. Mazza, Y. Cherruault, G. Mora, B. Konfé, T. BenneoualaTo use a new method based on α‐dense curved for solving problems of operational research.
National economic strength as evaluated using grey systems theory
Yi Lin, Sifeng LiuTo show how the concept of systems and the method of grey information can be employed to evaluate a nation's economic strength. A real‐life set of data is employed.
On a recursive sequence
Mehdi Dehghan, Reza Mazrooei‐SebdaniThe aim in this paper is to investigate the dynamics of difference equation yn+1=(pyn+yn−k)/(qyn+yn−k), n=0,1,2,… where k∈{1,2,3,…}, the initial conditions y−k, … ,y−1,y0 and the…
