Traditional engineering documents have too many expression forms to be expediently managed and have no dynamic correlation functions. This paper introduces a new method and uses XML to store and manage engineering documents to realize the format unity of engineering documents and their dynamic correlations.展开更多

It argues that viewing material and activities should meet the needs and interest of learners and lead towards a product that can benefit their language-learning capabilities. The selection of right film clips and the designing of appropriate tasks are discussed in detail.展开更多

The current emphasis in computer game AI is improving the quality of opponent AI. Our research question reads: How can unsupervised online learning be incorporated in Computer Role Playing Game(CRPG) to improve the strategy of the opponent AI? Our goal is to use online evolutionary learning to design strategies that can defeat the opponent. So we apply a novel technique called dynamic scripting that realizes online adaptation of scripted opponent AI and report on experiments performed in a simulated CRPG to assess the adaptive performance obtained with the technique.展开更多

It is mostly studied in a highly individual centered view that individual speakers and their relations to one another are central, and social relations are built up through the linguistic interactions of speakers. In most case, a modal verb expresses the speaker＇s or the author＇s attitude at the time of speaking. So, it is very necessary that we learn the meaning of the modal verbs in translation. This paper talked about the modality, the types of modality, modal commitment and finally the meaning of the modal verbs in translation.展开更多
