A specialized ATMS for efficiently computing equivalence relations in multiple contexts is introduced. This specialized ATMS overcomes the problems with existing solutions to reasoning with equivalence relations. The most direct implementation of an equivalence relation in the ATMS-encoding the reflexive, transitive, and symmetric rules in the consumer architecture-produces redundant equality...
The overall goals of this research were to identify the
major human factors problems in the mass transit driver
cockpit, to identify the operational activities, and vehicle
components that are most likely to produce accidents and
injuries and to investigate, through an in-depth study, the
most hazardous human factors problems....
For the past thirty years the majority of the
research on the cognitive demands of learning computer
programming has assumed that successful computer
programmers display certain aptitudes. Some
researchers indicate that studies linking different
prerequisite profiles of abilities to different
programming outcomes are needed. Such research might
dispel many of...
