Many of the described invariants make it possible to distinguish a larger number of graphs in the real time of a computer program. In this paper, we propose an invariant for a special kind of directed graphs, namely, for tournaments. The last ones, from our point of view, are interesting because when fixing the order of vertices, the number of different tournaments is exactly equal to the number of undirected graphs, also with fixing the order of vertices. In the invariant we are considering, all possible tournaments consisting of a subset of vertices of a given digraph with the same set of arcs are iterated over. For such subset tournaments, the places are calculated in the usual way, which are summed up to obtain the final values of the points of the vertices;these points form the proposed invariant. As we expected, calculations of the new invariant showed that it does not coincide with the most natural invariant for tournaments, in which the number of points is calculated for each participant. So far, we have conducted a small number of computational experiments, and the minimum value of the pair correlation between the sequences representing these two invariants that we found is for dimension 15.展开更多

Due to the un ique cold climate and superior geographic location,Harbin is a promising city f or developing tour resources of tournament athletics. Based on the analysis of t he superiority and peculiarity of Harbin,the speculation on development of tour resources of tournament athletics in Harbin is proposed as follows:1) Harbin s hould develop its special tour resources of tournament athletics associated with needs of market; 2) Harbin should take the advantages of rich resources and dev elop ice and snow entertainment in winter and travel for sight-seeing and spend ing summer; 3) the adjustment of the layout of ice and snow resources should be based on the idea of taking Harbin as the center and all-side opening at the la rge scale in the way of radiation; 4) tourism should be developed by the combine d efforts of various departments to make feasible plan, and the organizers shoul d pay much attention to ensuring the safety of tourists.展开更多

A baseline of average length of games and number of games played per match is necessary. The analysis informing development of the framework was carried out in the context of the sport of golf croquet. Based on the results of this analysis, golf croquet tournaments should have four best-of-three matches scheduled per court per day to optimize playing time and minimize the need to play matches outside regular playing hours.展开更多

A particular class of these problems is the Traveling Tournament Problem (TTP) which focuses on minimizing the total traveling distance for teams. In this paper, an efficient simulated annealing approach is presented for TTP which applies two simultaneous and disparate models for the problem in order to search the solutions space more effectively. Also, a computationally efficient modified greedy scheme is proposed for constructing a favorable initial solution for the simulated annealing algorithm. Our computational experiments, carried out on standard instances, demonstrate that this approach competes with previous offered methods in quality of found solutions and their computational time.展开更多

In this context, to increase understanding of civics education for being able to create the best generation and condition in the future life, study on this issue is becoming a very crucial manner. In general, methods like discussion and dialogue are used to allow students to express themselves. However, cooperative learning in particular addresses many of the needs and concerns facing by educational systems and Team Game Tournament (TGT) method is one of the preferable methods of cooperative learning. This study was aiming to increase civics learning achievements by using cooperative learning based on TGT method on secondary school students of Jatisari of Indonesia. The action research procedure was also used so as to be able to evaluate the influent, impact, and result of TGT. Accordingly, cooperative learning with TGT method has successfully given positive contribution to increasing student learning civics achievement.展开更多
