English

Subject field(s)
  • Business and Administrative Documents
  • Accounting
CONT

At the close of each month, you need to complete a month-end report to keep your accounting statements updated. The month-end report adjusts your ledger for monthly transactions. This includes recording loan payments, reducing the value of business assets by their depreciation, writing off any bad debts and recording entries for prepaid expenses. The month-end report is also used to review the past month's transactions and make sure everything has been properly recorded. If your accounts do not balance, the month-end report is a time to correct any accounting errors.

DEF

Medida actualizada del valor del proyecto. Se trata del valor actual de la corriente de beneficios incrementales netos, o flujo incremental de fondos, de un proyecto. Es el valor actual de los beneficios menos el valor actual de los costos de un proyecto.

CONT

Cuando se utiliza el valor neto actual, el criterio de selección es aceptar todos los proyectos independientes con un valor neto actual de cero o mayor cuando se actualizan a una tasa adecuada de actualización, con mucha frecuencia el costo de oportunidad del capital. No da clasificación para el orden de ejecución. Cuando se analizan opciones mutuamente excluyentes, acepte la opción con el valor neto actual más elevado. El valor neto actual es el criterio preferido de selección para opciones que se excluyen mutuamente.

OBS

1. vector sights-Sighting systems using the vector principle and incorporating a mechanical representation of the vectors of the bombing triangle. a. pre-set vector-A sighting system in which the values for height, airspeed and wind are set manually on the bomb sight. b. continuously set vector-A sighting system in which the values for height, airspeed and drift are automatically and continuously updated. 2. tachometric or synchronous sights-Sighting systems which automatically release the bomb at the correct bombing angle by maintaining the sight line on the target, thus determining the speed relative to the target and in some cases the track through the target. 3. angular velocity sight-A sighting system in which the correct release point is determined when the angular velocity of the target relative to the bomb aimer reaches a precomputed value.

OBS

bomb sighting system: term and observation standardized by NATO.

OBS

1. viseur vectoriel - Viseur basé sur une représentation vectorielle des grandeurs utilisées. Il comporte un mécanisme qui reproduit mécaniquement le triangle de visée. On distingue : a. le viseur à préaffichage - Les valeurs de la hauteur de bombardement, de la vitesse par rapport à l'air et du vent sont affichées à la main une fois pour toutes. b. le viseur à affichage continu - La hauteur, la vitesse par rapport à l'air et le vent sont constamment réajustées automatiquement. 2. viseur tachymétrique ou synchronisé - Viseur qui largue la bombe au moment où l'angle de bombardement correct est atteint. Ce type de viseur maintient la ligne de visée sur la cible, déterminant ainsi la vitesse exacte par rapport à l'objectif. Il peut aussi maintenir la route suivie par l'avion de façon à la faire passer par la cible. 3. viseur à déplacement angulaire - Viseur qui permet la détermination du point de largage correct par coïncidence entre le défilement angulaire mesuré de l'objectif par rapport au bombardier et une valeur prédéterminée et préaffichée.

OBS

1. visores vectoriales - Visores que se basan en una representación vectorial de las magnitudes que emplea. Tiene un dispositivo que reproduce mecánicamente el triángulo de puntería. Se distinguen: a. de vectores preestablecidos - Sistema en el que los valores de la altura, velocidad respecto al aire y del viento se introducen normalmente en el sistema una sola vez. b. de establecimiento continuo - Sistema en el que los valores de la altura, velocidad respecto al aire y del viento se reajustan automáticamente de forma continua. 2. visores tacométricos o sincronizados - Visores que sueltan la bomba de forma automática en el momento correspondiente al ángulo de bombardeo correcto. Este tipo de visores mantienen la línea de puntería sobre el blanco determinando así la velocidad relativa del objetivo y en algunos casos la ruta para el seguimiento. 3. visores de velocidad angular - Sistema de visores en los que el punto de lanzamiento se determina mediante la velocidad angular del objetivo con respecto al avión de bombardeo. (Cuando alcanza un valor previamente calculado).

Subject field(s)
  • Artificial Intelligence
CONT

Synchronous Versus Asynchronous Update. Another important issue is the timing of the application of the activation rule. In some models, units are updated asynchronously and at random. The usual assumption is that at each point in time each unit has a fixed probability of evaluating and applying its activation rule and updating its activation value.

Subject field(s)
  • Artificial Intelligence

CONT

In BIP-I, the student model is defined only in terms of the skills, though in general other levels could be used as well. Associated with each skill is a pair of numerical values. One value stands for the system's estimate of the student's mastery of the skill and is updated by very simple techniques according to his performance on each task. The other stands for the student's own estimate of his understanding and is updated in the course of a short interview following each exercise. Since problem selection takes both values into account, this is an interesting, albeit simple, combination of inferential and interactive diagnosis.

OBS

Applies to systems such as WUSOR, ACE, the LISP tutor and the MACSYMA ADVISOR that invite the student to participate explicitly in the diagnostic process by volunteering information, or engage in menu-driven dialogues with the student that provide information about the student’s goals. Even if the student is more involved in the formation of the student model, inferential diagnostic capabilities remain necessary.
