Programmers generally give algebraic expressions in their simplest form, but not always, simplification deals with this. A set of algorithms applies arithmetic identities attempting to find the one with the smallest set of instruction. This is not simple, doing it generally is not possible. For e.g. would you know that: sqrt(exp(alog(x)/y)) = exp(alog(x)/2*y) Your compiler probably will, but only because the calculation occurs in the whetstone benchmark, so compiler designers have tuned for i...
According to Dirk Geeraerts, linguistic theories often tend to be fairly insular affairs, whereas Cognitive Linguistics seems to form an archipelago instead of an island. Rather than a demarcated area, it is an agglomeration of closely connected linguistic research that share the same view, but have not yet been gathered under one precise theory. When compared to other hypotheses Cognitive Linguistics is an open, flexile theory rather than a confined one. In addition, Cognitive Linguistics de...
The second page usually contains your executive summary, which is a summary of your paper. The executive summary should include your topic, purpose/thesis, and conclusions. Some instructors may tell you not to include an executive summary for a short paper or for a report. The summary should be approximately 120 words. Thus, you should always check with your instructor concerning its length, or before excluding the executive summary. Note that the title "Executive Summary" is on the first lin...

Introduction In today's economy, change is all-pervasive in organizations. It happens continuously, and often at rapid speed. Because change has become an everyday part of organizational dynamics, employees who resist change can actually cripple an organization. Resistance is an inevitable response to any major change. Individuals naturally rush to defend the status quo if they feel their security or status are threatened. Folger & Skarlicki (1999) claim that “organizational change can ...
Introduction My report is on time management. In it I will be discussing what time management is, what its importance is and how it has assisted me in preparing this assignment.

This paper present the development of a handheld solarimeter which is integrated with temperature sensor modules by using the application of Microcontroller PIC16F877A. The solarimeter employs a reference solar cell which is calibrated to measure the solar irradiance. Besides the solarimeter, two temperature sensor modules will also be introduced to measure ambient temperature and photovoltaic module temperature respectively. All measurements from the solarimeter and temperature modules will ...
