    explained the existence of halos in a powder photograph where the images of the electronic orbit around the atoms [Debye et.al., 1918]. Electron density is the measure of probability of an electron being present at a specific location. The regions of electron density are usually found around the atoms and its bonds. The probability of locating an electron at one point (or) another can be calculated quantum mechanically. This calculation gives a quantity called electron density. Electron can be viewed

    otherwise (Hanemann, 1984): U(1, I -BID; S)+ ε1 ≥U(0, I; S) + ε0 In the current case, ε1 and ε0 are considered as independently distributed random variables with zero means. Therefore, the probability that a household would decide to pay for the proposed improved solid waste management for Delhi is the probability that the conditional indirect utility function for proposed intervention is greater than the conditional indirect utility function for the status quo. The dependent variable is dichotomous

    Introduction Arrowmark Vending has the contract to supply pizza at football games for a university. The operations manager, Tom Kealey, faces the challenge of determining how many pizzas to make available at the games. We have been provided with demand distributions for pizza based on past experience and know that Tom will only supply plain cheese and pepperoni and cheese combo pizzas. We also know that there is a fixed cost of $1,000 allocated equally between the two types of pizzas, and that the costs

    QUESTION 14** a Simple Return = (1400 – 1000)/1000 = 0.40 or 40% b Effective Return = (1.40)3 – 1 = 1.74 or 174% c Discrete return is 40%. The continuously compounded return is ln (1400/1000) = = 0.3365 or 34%. The discrete return exceeds the continuously compounded return. When using discrete returns, it is implicitly assumed that the return is earned at the instant that the holding period ends. However, it is more realistic to assume that the return

    which impact the mode choice such as their socio-economic characteristics, trip characteristics and available transport characteristics. 2.1.1 Theories for mode choice modeling Mode choice modeling is conventionally done based on discrete choice model; here the discrete set of alternatives is given and one must be chosen. This model is based on choosing an alternative with maximum utilization or say choosing a mode which provided the maximum utility to the user. This utility can be found out with

    Introduction The first time fingerprint comparison evidence was used in court against a defendant was in 1892 in Argentina [1] For purposes of forensic identification in cases of law enforcement and other areas where human identification is needed, fingerprints have been widely acclaimed to be of an invaluable importance and has therefore seen a close to unanimous acceptance as the gold standard of forensic evidence where biometric identity is concerned. Recently however, as was rarely done in times

    square, Fig 5) in the influence diagram demonstrates that he will know the Defender’s decision while he has to decide. The Defender’s private information v, is not known by the Attacker, therefore his uncertainty is demonstrated through a probability distribution pA(V), illustrating the Attacker’s previous beliefs about the Defender’s private information. Assuming the Defender analyses the Attacker’s decision, knowing that he is an expected utility maximiser and uses Bayes’s rule to discover about
