A group of broker agents are designed to provide brokering services in a peer-to-peer （P2P） manner for the non- broker agents （user agents, resource agents, query agents）. Thus, the scalability and robustness of the system are enhanced. Ontology is also used by the broker agents for facilitating interoperability among all the agents in HustEven. Unlike any other AMAs, an interdomain ontology is built in this system to represent the relationships among the common concepts in the innerdomain ontologies. Therefore, a broker forwards the queries only to the other related brokers according to the interdomain ontology and the communication overhead among the brokers is reduced. Obviously, the application of the interdomain ontology enables a broker to fully take advantage of the multi-broker architecture. The experimental results show that the HustEven performs more efficiently than any other existing systems.展开更多

Integrity is a distinct characteristic of Marxism. Research and grasp the integrity of Marxism is the level one discipline of Marxist theories, especially the Marxism basic principle. Basic principle of Marxism is not exceptional and also of course, the theory of Marxism is its logical premise. People＇ s life is to continue and develop which makes this kind of complex internal structure to establish contact with the outside world. Our research is novel and innovative which will be meaningful for the research of the Marxism theory.展开更多

The main result attained is the existence of a deterministic mathematical model that relates phonetics to associated mental images starting from the simplest linguistic units in agreement with the human response to different acoustic stimuli. Moreover, there exists two level hierarchy for natural language understanding. The first level uncovers the conceptual meaning of linguistic units, and hence forming a corresponding mental image. At the second level the operational meaning is found to suit, context, pragmatics, and world knowledge. This agrees with our knowledge about human cognition. The resulting model is parallel, hierarchical but still concise to explain the speed of natural language understanding.展开更多

In this paper, the authors study the extension of NI theory to descriptor systems. The authors derive an NI lemma for descriptor systems. This is done by using the transformation from positive real （PR） system to NI system. Then, the Weierstrass Form transformation was involved to transform A and E matrices to be in a special form. An illustrative example is presented to support the result. Negative imaginary systems, positive real systems, descriptor systems, Negative imaginary lemma.展开更多

With about thirty years of momentum, this discipline has grown from little more than a special interests group to a topic to which multiple institutions and journals have been dedicated. This paper presents an outline of the discipline of Cultural Psychology from an American interdisciplinary perspective. The pitfalls of General Psychology （research methodology, politicization, and an essentialist hermeneutic） and Anthropology （an epistemological gap in the four fields approach, psychophobia, and the role of the researcher in cultural change） are addressed, in turn. Cultural Psychology provides an alternative to these pitfalls by drawing on the strengths of each discipline to address both theoretical and empirical problems. Cultural Psychology urges for a critical reflection on the social structure and history of its own discipline, resulting in a broader academic canon and a more nuanced understanding of interdisciplinary relations within the human sciences.展开更多

For a period of two decades, it developed the hotel buildings＇ substructure, a project known as the ＂Xenia project＂. During this period, Greek architects, devoted to modernism, designed and supervised 53 hotel compounds, which spread throughout the country. Today, the Xenia Hotels are internationally recognized as part of Greece＇s modern cultural heritage, based on the simplicity, the definition of the form and the truth in materials use, besides the integration of the buildings in the natural environment, components which reveal themselves as a unique venture. This paper aims to reveal that, despite the efforts to retain the Xenia Hotels, these procedures remain incomplete. They rightly focus on architectural shells, morphological and functional standardization, proper utilization of the Greek environmental conditions, and the use of authentic local materials. However, the cultural evaluation of these settlements can only be completed by their holistic design, which also comprises their interior spaces, lightening and furniture design, all these detailed aspects that form an organic entirety and which are not included in these efforts.展开更多

Many studies address the relations between the particles and the space time manifold, and the latter＇s physical structure, whether it is Continuous or Discrete. In the proposed model the properties of the particles are classical in the sense of general relativity, whereas their quantum properties are arises due to the experiments.展开更多

Its generalized decisions in the space of tempered generalized functions are constructed. The elementary twistors and twistor fields are built and their properties are investigated. Introduction. The proposed by V.P. Hamilton quatemions algebra [1] and its complex extension - biquaternions algebra are very convenient mathematical tool for the description of many physical processes. At presence these algebras have been actively used in in the work of various authors to solve a number of problems in electrodynamics, quantum mechanics, solid mechanics and field theory. The properties of these algebras are actively studied in the framework of the theory of Clifford algebras. In the papers [2, 3] the differential algebra of biquatemions has been elaborated for construction of generalized solutions of the biquaternionic wave （biwave） equations. The particular types of biwave equations were considered, which are equivalent to the systems of Maxwell and Dirac equations and their generalizations, their biquaternionic decisions also were constructed. Here the biwave equation is considered with vector structural coefficient which is biquaternionic generalization of Dirac equations. Their generalized solutions in the space of tempered distributions are defined and their properties are researched.展开更多

One reason for this phenomenon is that it differs from the traditional scientific paradigm. To explore the root of this difference, we need to examine closely the theoretical foundations and structure of biology. The complexity of the multiple contexts and semantic structures expressed in the theoretical structure specific to biology requires that research on the theoretical foundation of biology incorporate semantic analysis. It is particularly necessary to conduct semantic decomposition of the theories themselves and study their semantic correlations. In doing so, we can discern the rationality of the biological model as a special form of scientific explanation distinct from that of physics and chemistry.展开更多

文摘In order to realize interoperability to a large number of autonomous and heterogeneous information sources with high efficiency, an agent-based multi-broker architecture （AMA）-HustEven, is constructed.
