The Multi-Dimensional Stock Inventory and Sales Control Graphical Modeling

This paper proposes the application of a new Multi-Dimensional graphical modeling to observe the changes between the stock inventory and sales level of different branches from the same firm into the same graphical space. We suggest for the construction of this graphical modeling the uses of multi-dimensional physical spaces and interactive software to observe the changes of stock inventory and sales level on real time movement.

Relaxation of a field-unwound cholesteric liquid crystal

We have numerically investigated the homogeneous-planar and homeotropic-planar transitions, respectively, in a planar-aligned cholesteric liquid crystal by using our multidimensional software based on the finite element method. When the unwinding field is turned off abruptly, the relaxation process of a field-unwound cholesteric liquid crystal is accompanied by an elastic-induced Helfrich deformation without introduction of defects, which will continuously convert into a stable planar texture with natural pitch and domain wall.

Stepwise improvement of the software-process in a multidimensional framework

Software process models, irrespective of whether they are life cycle oriented or not, focus strictly on the activity domain within a single project. This focus is heavily challenged by COSMOS, a multidimensional software process model. In addition to the activity structure, it takes into account also the communication- and infrastructure in which software development takes place. This three-dimensional framework meets special challenges due to incorporating software reuse and object orientedness into large scale software production and it allows for adequate planning of various activities controlling software development which are not directly attributable to a specific project, but which might run in parallel to a host of projects. This paper reports on investigations concerning the mapping of this multidimensional software development model on a software process maturity scale, analog to the one proposed by Humphrey (1989).
