The goal of the present study was to compare a range of aspects in children’s symbolic knowledge about the number three among two groups of three-year-olds from contrasting socioeconomic backgrounds. Every child was presented ...

In recent years, mapping tasks have been used to explain development of symbolic and non-symbolic numerical associations. The bidirectional mapping hypothesis (Castronovo & Seron, 2007) postulates that transcoding ...

By combining an historical analysis of three megaprojects and an organizational theory approach based on the notion of symbolism-intensive organizations, this research attempts to shed light on how symbols are constructed, ...

Lazy Initialization (LI) allows symbolic execution to effectively deal with heap-allocated data structures, thanks to a significant reduction in spurious and redundant symbolic structures. Bounded lazy initialization (BLI) ...

This study analyzes the impact of iconic representations of quantity (objects and images) and arbitrary representations (spoken number words) on the performance of 3-, 3.5- and 4-year-old children when building collections ...

This dissertation presents a reconstruction of John Venn s (1834-1923) logical theory in Symbolic Logic (1881; 1894). In his work, Venn presents an algebra of logic, and faces a number of philosophical problems underlying ...

The ability to represent quantities, either in a symbolic or non-symbolic format, predicts calculation skills. Recording the saccades during gazing at these stimuli allows us to infer the cognitive processing taking place ...

In this paper, the impact of the number of channels on the performance of elastic optical networks (EONs) is examined considering a multilevel modulation format and coherent transmission. Network design parameters such as ...
