Artificial Intelligence is all about bringing Common Sense, Expert Knowledge, and Superhuman Reasoning to Computers. For the most part, AI does not produce stand-alone systems, but instead adds knowledge and reasoning to existing applications, databases, and environments, to make them friendlier, smarter, and more sensitive to user behavior and changes in their environments.
In the domain of Artificial intelligence, various problem-solving techniques have been developed. Though working towards the common goal of making a computer Ëœintellige ....etc

Discussion: Discount factor issues

WACC is appropriate discount factor when:
The new project has the same risk profile as the firm as a whole
The new project uses the same financial structure as the firm as a whole
No special financing connected to the project
Financing for the project is taxed the same way as all other financing for the firm

Discussion: Cash flow issues

Most cash flow issues do not affect validity of WACC as a discount factor. (Unless they raise one of the above issu ....etc

Abstract
Efficiency and scalability are fundamental issues concerning data mining in large databases. Although classification has been studied extensively, few of the known methods take serious consideration of efficient induction in large databases and the analysis of data at multiple abstraction levels. The paper addresses the efficiency and scalability issues by proposing a data classification method which integrates attribute oriented induction, relevance analysis, and the induction of decision trees. Such an integration leads to efficient ....etc

Abstract
Information Technology Outsourcing (ITO)has generated considerable research interest since the historicEastman Kodak deals of 1989. In this paper, amodel has been developed for making the ITO decisionbased on the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). Two hierarchieshave been developed - one for making a choiceof activities to outsource and another to choose the appropriateoutsourcing methodology. The model has beentested by applying it to an outsourcing decision made bya leading locomotive company of India. Keywords Ou ....etc

Abstract”
There are currently heterogeneous wireless access networks. A large variety of applications utilizing these networks will demand features such as real-time, high-availability and even instantaneous high-bandwidth in some cases. Therefore, it is imperative for network service providers to make the best possible use of the combined resources of available heterogeneous networks for connection su ....etc

Distributed Algorithm for En Route Aggregation Decision in Wireless Sensor Networks-

Abstract
Sensor networks en route aggregation decision regarding where and when aggregation shall be performed along the routes has been explicitly , implicitly studied extensively. However, existing solutions have omitted one key dimension in the optimization space, namely, the aggregation cost. In this paper, focusing on optimizing over both transmission and aggregation costs, we develop an online algorithm capable of dynamically adjusting the route stru ....etc
