The Localization Procedures of the Vector of Weighting Coefficients on the Set of Teaching Experts in the Tasks of Consuming

In terms of binary relations the author analyses the task of an individual consumers’ choice on the teaching excerpts set. It is suggested to analyse the function of consumer’s value as additive reduction. For localization of the vector of weighting coefficients of additive reduction the procedures based on metrics of object distance towards the ideal point are suggested.

A Sensitive Metric of Class Cohesion

Metrics estimate the quality of different aspects of software. In particular, cohesion indicates how well the parts of a system hold together. A metric to evaluate class cohesion is important in object-oriented programming because it gives an indication of a good design of classes. There are several proposals of metrics for class cohesion but they have several problems (for instance, low discrimination). In this paper, a new metric to evaluate class cohesion is proposed, called SCOM, which has several relevant features. It has an intuitive and analytical formulation, what is necessary to apply it to large-size software systems. It is normalized to produce values in the range [0..1], thus yielding meaningful values. It is also more sensitive than those previously reported in the literature. The attributes and methods used to evaluate SCOM are unambiguously stated. SCOM has an analytical threshold, which is a very useful but rare feature in software metrics. We assess the metric with several sample cases, showing that it gives more sensitive values than other well know cohesion metrics.

Almost Conformal Transformation in a Class of Riemannian Manifolds

We consider a 3-dimensional Riemannian manifold V with a metric g and an a±nor structure q. The local coordinates of these tensors are circulant matrices. In V we define an almost conformal transformation. Using that definition we construct an infinite series of circulant metrics which are successively almost conformaly related. In this case we get some properties.
