Approach: Research in the area of venture capital financing was needed because of the importance of new ventures as germinators of technological innovation. The research in … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,760 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProviding Reliability in Replicated Middleware ApplicationsR. Saravanan, N. RamarajProblem statement: Data inconsistency is raised in actively replicated environment due to non-determinism in the applications that defeats the purpose of replication as a fault-tolerance strategy. Approach: We proposed an efficient framework RTC which ensured determinism among the replicas in fault tolerance middleware applications. This method exploits the technique of statically analyzing the application source code of client and identifies … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 8,696 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMulti-Product Multi-Constraint Inventory Control Systems with Stochastic Replenishment and Discount under Fuzzy Purchasing Price and Holding CostsAta Allah Taleizadeh, Seyed Taghi Akhavan Niaki, Mir-Bahador AryanezhadWhile in multi-periodic inventory control problems the usual assumption are that the orders are placed at the beginning of each period (periodic review) or depending on the inventory level they can happen at any time (continuous review), in this research, we relax these assumptions and assume that the periods between two replenishments of the products are independent and identically distributed … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 8,085 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Influence of Social Capital on Adoption of Rural Development Programs by Farmers in the Caspian Sea Region of IranA. Ahmadi Firouzjaie, H. Sadighi, M.A. MohammadiThe main purpose of this study was to measure social capital (consisting of structural and cognitive) of mainly rice producing farmers in the Caspian See region of Iran. The secondary purpose was to determine the influence of farmers' social capital on adoption of Rural Development Programs (RDPs). This was a descriptive-correlation and a causal-comparative survey study. The population of this … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 8,031 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimation and Reliability for a Special Type of Semi-Markov ProcessVlad Stefan Barbu, Alex Karagrigoriou, Andreas MakridesThis work deals with multi-state systems modelled by means of semi-Markov processes. The sojourn times are seen to be independent not identically distributed random variables and assumed to belong to one of two different general classes of distributions so that the first class is closed under maxima and the second one is closed under minima. We obtain maximum likelihood estimators … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 20 Oct 2019 · 7,047 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFormalizing Probability Concepts in a Type TheoryFarida KachapovaIn this paper we formalize some fundamental concepts of probability theory such as the axiomatic definition of probability space, random variables and their characteristics, in the Calculus of Inductive Constructions, which is a variant of type theory and the foundation for the proof assistant COQ. In a type theory every term and proposition should have a type, so in our … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 12 Nov 2018 · 8,547 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLog-Moment Estimators for the Generalized Linnik and Mittag-Leffler Distributions with Applications to Financial ModelingDexter O. Cahoy, Wojbor A. WoyczyńskiWe propose formal estimation procedures for the parameters of the generalized, heavy-tailed three-parameter Linnik gL(α, µ, δ) and Mittag-Leffler gML(α, µ, δ) distributions. The paper also aims to provide guidance about the different inference procedures for the different two-parameter Linnik and Mittag-Leffler distributions in the current literature. The estimators are derived from the moments of the log-transformed random variables and … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 1 Aug 2018 · 7,355 accessesView PDFCite
