The Construct Validity Of A Situational Judgment Test In A Maximum Performance Context
… Do') moderated the validity of an SJT in a maximum performance context. The second question asked what the upper-bound criterion-related validity coefficient is for SJTs in talent selection contexts in which typical performance is the criterion of interest. The third question asked whether …

A Differentially Reinforcing Token System in a Public School Classroom
… A token reward system increases academic test performance in a classroom not defined as exceptional, (2) The increase in test performance is equivalent across academic courses, (3) In terms of maximum performance there are optimum levels of reinforcement.</p>

Analyzing performance of SIC with multiple power multichannel Aloha
This thesis analyzes the performance of successive interference cancellation (SIC) when used with multiple power, multichannel Aloha. We use the fluid model to analyze the performance of the system under various circumstances. We also simulate the performance of a SIC system over a single channel. …

Wireless Communications in the Energy -Limited Regime
… a correlated channel model, we show that the maximum performance gain (in terms of the error exponent and communication rate) is achieved when the entries of the channel fading matrix are fully correlated.

Heat and mass transfer characteristics: design and optimisation of absorption refrigeration machines
… there are numerous methods which analyse the performance of an existing plant from collected data. These methods however, do not provide any means of predicting how the analysed plant would perform if one or more of its working conditions should change. This work provides a complete design for …

Ionizing radiation effects spectroscopy
… radiation and extreme temperatures can result in performance degradation, transient anomalies, and hard failures. These issues have become evident in recent years with the increasing interest in the use of commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) electronics in space systems. While COTS parts offer maximum …

An analysis of the static and dynamic characteristics of a decoupled landing entry vehicle
… modes were used at several points along a maximum performance trajectory. The parameters considered throughout the trajectory were the period and the time to damp to one-half amplitude.

Impacto da densidade nutricional sobre o desempenho de poedeiras leves
… the effect of the nutritional density on the performance of lightweight laying hens from 25 to 45 weeks of age. Therefore, 280 laying hens from the Hy-Line W-36 strain, were distributed in a completely randomized design with five treatments and seven replicates of eight birds. Treatments …

What's next for the airliner? : historical analysis and future predictions of aircraft architecture and performance
… technologies has rapidly increased, and aircraft performance has improved. The historical context of aircraft architectures are analyzed in order to establish trends and precedents for architectural change. This historical analysis is carried out based on a database of 157 architectures from the …

Estimating memory locality for virtual machines on NUMA systems
… in particular, are required to extract maximum performance from the underlying hardware, as they often run dozens of virtual machines (VMs) on a single system and provide clients with performance guarantees that must be met. While VM memory demand is often satisfied by CPU caches, …

A 3-d model for the operation of a radiation pyrometer in an axial flow turbine
… temperature is desired in order to obtain maximum performance from turbine engines. A limited spectrum radiation pyrometer can be used for blade temperature measurement. A model is presented which predicts the output signal from the detector unit of a pyrometer in a turbine engine …

Empirical accuracy bounds for next-generation sequencing variant calling workflows
… use simulated data to empirically quantify the maximum performance that can be expected for alignment and variant detection accuracy in a workflow. Short read sequencers are inherently incapable of producing reads that can be uniquely mapped to every position of the human reference genome, so …

Evaluation of different Support Vector Machines (SVM) for speaker identification
… compares the four kernels mentioned. Attaining maximum performance with SVM requires optimizing the hyperparameters that are embedded in the kernel function. The results obtained from the experiments performed indicate that the linear kernel's performance was the worst compared to the other …

Hardware-level fine-grained thread migration
… has remained the default strategy for ensuring maximum performance. Massive-scale single-chip multiprocessors dramatically alter this picture. On-chip data transfer latencies-even across a 100+-core chip-rarely exceed tens of cycles, making the potential cost of thread migration as low as …

MEASURING THE IMPACT OF THE MICRONEGOTIATION TECHNIQUE ON TEAM MEMBER SATISFACTION AND TEAM PERFORMANCE
… issues in the ability of the team to achieve maximum performance. Research on task conflict and relationship conflict by de Wit, Greer, and Jehn (2012) found that while in many cases task conflict and relationship conflict within teams can have a negative effect on team performance, in some …
