A variety of bibliometric measures have been proposed to quantify the impact of researchers and their work. The h-index is a notable and widely used example which aims to improve over simple metrics such as raw counts of papers or citations. However, a limitation of this measure is that it...

Research on price transmission in vertically markets models the various price data, production index, consumer index and expectations index to proof market integration relations and estimate price transmission cycles, as well as to find out its function mechanism. Thanks to the development of...

In this paper, we determine the eccentric connectivity index and augmented eccentric connectivity index of fan graph, wheel graph, gear fan graph, gear wheel graph and their r-corona graphs.

A new neural network is proposed in this paper for solving quadratic programming problems with equality and inequality constraints. Comparing with the existing neural networks for solving such problems, the proposed neural network has fewer neurons and an one-layer architecture. The proposed...

Warehouses play a vital role in mitigating variations in supply and demand, and in providing value-added services in a supply chain. However, our observation of supply chain practice reveals that warehousing decisions are not included when developing a distribution plan for the supply chain....

A logistic growth model driven by additive and multiplicative noises which are correlated with each other is investigated. Using the Novikov theorem and the projection operator method, we obtain the analytic expressions of the stationary probability distribution pst(x), the relaxation time Tc,...
