TL;DR: In this article, the authors argue that social media is a hybrid element of the promotion mix because in a traditional sense it enables companies to talk to their customers, while in a nontra-ditional sense it enable customers to talk directly to one another.

TL;DR: This work studies the problem of scheduling periodic-time-critical tasks on multiprocessor computing systems and considers two heuristic algorithms that are easy to implement and yield a number of processors that is reasonably close to the minimum number.
Abstract: We study the problem of scheduling periodic-time-critical tasks on multiprocessor computing systems. A periodic-time-critical task consists of an infinite number of requests, each of which has a prescribed deadline. The scheduling problem is to specify an order in which the requests of a set of tasks are to be executed and the processor to be used, with the goal of meeting all the deadlines with a minimum number of processors. Since the problem of determining the minimum number of processors is difficult, we consider two heuristic algorithms. These are easy to implement and yield a number of processors that is reasonably close to the minimum number. We also analyze the worst-case behavior of these heuristics.

TL;DR: The authors provided a reflection on the role of positionality in research, following the completion of a qualitative research project and highlighted the potential challenges and opportunities of being cognizant of one's positionality.
Abstract: Through this article, the author provides a reflection on the role of positionality in research, following the completion of a qualitative research project. Through the research project, the White researcher sought to explore the ways in which students of color experience a predominantly White university. Drawing on literature and findings from the research project, the author highlights potential challenges and opportunities of being cognizant of one’s positionality. These reflections illustrate the significance of positionality and serve as a reminder of its potential effects on the research process, as well as on participants and the researcher. The manuscript concludes with recommendations for researchers to carefully consider the potential influence of their positionality in any research setting. Keywords: Positionality, Research Process, Qualitative, Insider/Outsider
