The Potential of Silence in Education: Methodological and Didactic Prerequisites by A. D. Korol

“…Particular attention is paid to the links between silence, “questioning” and heuristics. It is indicated that silence in teaching factors into exponential development and the formation of such future competencies as creativity, communication, and the affective sphere.…”

Distributed Cognitive Radio Spectrum Access with Imperfect Sensing Using CTMC by K. Muthumeenakshi, S. Radha

“…In a distributed scheme, each secondary user needs to be aware of the statistics—arrival and service rates—of the other secondary users to optimize the throughput while maintaining fairness. A heuristics-based approach is formulated making use of the estimated spectrum idle probability and the interference each user experiences to iteratively update user statistics. …”

A Long Journey of Historical Research and Scientific Publication by Purnawan Basundoro

“…Historical research starts from the process of finding sources or what is known as heuristics. Some historians consider written sources as the main sources, even though there are alternative sources that are no less important, namely oral sources that have the same value and use as written sources. …”

Elegance as Complexity Reduction in Systems Design by Luca Iandoli, Letizia Piantedosi, Alejandro Salado, Giuseppe Zollo

“…In particular, we measure elegance as effective complexity and theorize that it can be achieved by a process of complexity resolution based on the adoption of eight visual heuristics. We present an empirical study in which a sample of systems engineers were asked to assess alternative representations of a same system and show that effective complexity is strongly correlated to perceived elegance and systems effectiveness. …”

A Lingual Agnostic Information Retrieval System by Umar Bn Abdullahi, Godspower Osaretin Ekuobase

“…The resultant lingual agnostic IRS (LAIRS) was evaluated using heuristics and system evaluation methods for parity of language of interaction against the default language and was excellently stable across queries and languages, guaranteeing 86% parity with the default language in the use of other languages for information access and retrieval. …”

The Prophet Joseph on Qur'an and The Historical Philosophical Perspective and Its Relevance for Human Development by Misnal Munir, Moses Glorino Rumambo Pandin

“…The methodical procedure is as follows: (1) Description, (2) Deduction-induction, (3) Inclusive language, and (4) Heuristics. The results of the study reveal that: (1) The story of the prophet Yusuf in the Koran is a historical event, this story is not only about the life of the prophet Yusuf as a person, but also about the story of the family of the prophet Ya'qub as the forerunner or origin of the ancestors of the Israelites who The first to migrate to Egypt from Palestine. (2) The story of the prophet Yusuf in the Qur'an contains a philosophical dimension of history that contains an understanding of how to anticipate and prepare for the future. …”
