Problem Statement Languages in MIS

Daniel Teichroew · Gabler Verlag eBooks · 1971

The term “problem statement language” is used here to mean a language which is intended to be a means of expressing the requirements for a data processing task rather than a procedure for accomplishing the task. The term non-procedural is sometimes used though it is hard to define, Young (1965). The desirability of “non-procedural” problem statement languages has long been recognized; see for example, Chapin (1958, 1960) and Ladd (1957). A number of papers proposing and discussing suchlanguages have been published. In this section, the literature will be summarized and some of the major concepts that have appeared will be identified. Previous surveys of this literature (and of other related languages) are given by Young (1965), Shaw (1965) and Air Force Systems Command (1965).

Formulating a Research Problem Statement

Saldy Yusuf · Indonesian Contemporary Nursing Journal (ICON Journal) · 2024

Academic writing is a means of reporting research findings to the public, allowing them to be known, replicated, or applied. However, academic writing differs significantly from non-academic writing. It is inherently objective, grounded in research facts, and supported by citations from existing studies to substantiate or refute arguments. In contrast, non-academic writing is subjective and does not require the use of factual evidence in every analysis. This fundamental difference poses a challenge for academic writing, particularly for novice researchers.

I. STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

2012

Abstract — This paper describes a study conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of a teaching programme on “Ergonomics for Computer use ” among the staff of Majan College. A pre experimental research design was used to conduct the study. Thirty samples who met the study criteria were selected using convenience sampling technique. The knowledge level of the staff was assessed using a pretest questionnaire. The subjects were then exposed to a planned teaching programme. The teaching programme included power point presentation with multimedia clippings, demonstration of exercises regarding ergonomics of computer use. The post test questionnaire was administered to the staff, to determine whether there is a gain in knowledge due to the exposure of the subjects to the teaching programme. The results of the experiment showed that there was an increase in the pretest (m=9.36, s=3.91) and the post test mean (m=15.99, s=3.09) scores. Paired “t ” test, proved that there was a significant difference in the pre and the post test scores (t29 = 11.466) at 5 % level of significance. This difference was due to the intervention in the knowledge of the subjects.The practical application of this intervention would create health awareness to all computer users, thus improving quality of work environment.

Identification of Research Problem Statement

Oluwaseyi Wusu · Figshare · 2017

A research problem is an issue or concern that an investigator or a researcher presents and justifies in his/her research study.A research problem is based on five elements with a flow of ideas:Topic : Subject AreaSocial Works: a) A Concern b) A Problem c) Something that needs a solutionEvidence for the issue: a) Evidence from literature b) Evidence from practical experienceDeficiencies in the evidence: a) In this body of evidence, what is missing? i.e. the gap in knowledge b)What do we need to know more about What remedying the deficiencies will do for the audiences: How will addressing what we need to know help a) researchers b) educators, c) policy makers d) individual in the study

<p>A) Classification of transcriptomic profiles with a hierarchical label structure. Each training sample is associated to a unique label. B) Partial label learning framework, the transcriptomic profiles can be annotated with one or a <i>set</i> of candidate labels. C) In practice, the samples lie in a high-dimensional space, a proportion of the training samples is partially labeled, i.e. labeled with a set of candidate labels (illustrated with two colored crosses), while the remaining training samples have a unique label (and a unique color). The hierarchical structure of the labels is represented as a tree. D-F) Schematic illustration of some of the various methods explored in this study for the problem of partial label learning. We detail their extension to partial label learning and hierarchical learning in the Methods section. D) The Prototype-Based (PB) approach method consists in learning a projection of the data <i>X</i> and label <i>Y</i> into a new common embedding space. The embeddings of the labels are their associated prototypes, and the projection of the samples is learned such that the samples are as close as possible to their associated label’s prototype. For prediction, the labels of test samples will be the one of the closest prototype in the common embedding space. E) The Support Vector Machine (SVM) approach consists in learning hyperplanes as classifiers in the initial feature space . The prediction for a new test sample will depend on the position of this sample with respect to the learned hyperplanes. F) The k-Nearest Neighbors (kNN) algorithm predicts a new test sample’s label by first identifying the nearest training samples in and then using a majority vote to identify the most common label among them.</p>

Problem Statement and Research Question

Otmar Hilliges, Phd-supervision Prof, Andreas Butz · 2011

When computers move beyond the desktop, they enter our working and living environments. A continuous information space is overlaid to the physical space. Interaction in such a space can involve physical as well as digital objects and new techniques are needed to account for this mix of physical and digital world. In my work I try to investigate and propose new interaction techniques for interaction with multi media content in environments that mix physicality and virtuality.

C Statement of the Problem

2013

Events and activities are seldom described to another person with every minute detail included in the conversation. Summarization, paraphrasing and implication are often used to stress a point without going into excessive amounts of detail. Upon further investigation, certain statements can be broken apart into multiple discrete events that must occur sequentially without interruption. In computer science we refer to this trait as atomicity; either all the actions occur or none of them. One specific area where atomic events often occur without notice is meal preparation. Well known events are only described by the final step in the atomic sequence. The steps involved in making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich easily displays this trait.

A Statement of the Problem

Goodstein, Leonard D. · UNI ScholarWorks (University of Northern Iowa) · 1957

While discussions of the magnitude of the mental health problem here in Iowa and throughout the United States are commonplace, the facts and figures concerning this problem are nevertheless still quite overwhelming. For example, the average daily resident population in Iowa publicly supported mental hospitals for 1956 was 5,200 persons, while the national average was 556,000 (1); these figures exclude persons in federally supported hospitals, private hospitals and those receiving only out-patient treatment. The total expenditures for the maintenance of these patient populations (excluding capital improvements) in 1956 was $6,900,000 in Iowa alone; the national total for 1956, again excluding the costs of federal hospitals, private hospitals, and out-patient care was $662,000,000 (1). These population statistics are rather stable for the past three years while the expenditures keep rising. Mental health is clearly a problem of tremendous importance at this time and there has been considerable discussion of how best to deal with this problem in public and professional circles.

Abstract. We consider a multidimensional analogue of the Darboux prob-lem for wave equations with power nonlinearity. Depending on the spatial dimension of an equation, a power nonlinearity exponent and the sign in front of a nonlinear term, it is proved that the Darboux problem is globally solvable in some cases, but has no global solution in other cases though the local solvability of this problem remains in force.

The political control: problem statement

Koptelov Artyom Olegovich · Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research) · 2020

Political control as a special phenomenon is deeply hidden in complex social life. However, its influence is noticeable in many countries of the world. In this regard, there is a need for a more detailed study of this phenomenon from the point of view of setting limits to the permissible impact of the state through political control on society. At present, the influence of the masses on socio-political processes is significantly increasing. Consequently, this is the reason for the growing interest in ways of political control. As social life becomes more complex, a new direction in science is emerging that synthesizes the results of historical, legal, political science, and sociological research. This new direction becomes the subject of this research.
