  • FRANCHISE HISTORY HISTORY of OWNERSHIP the Sacramento Kings Begin Their Second Season Under a Group Led by Owner Vivek Ranadivé
    FRANCHISE HISTORY HISTORY OF OWNERSHIP The Sacramento Kings begin their second season under a group led by Owner Vivek Ranadivé. The group succeeds the Maloof family, who sold the franchise in Spring 2013. The latest chapter in the franchise's ownership history began to take shape in April 2013 when the NBA's Relocation Committee unanimously recommended that the league's Board of Governors deny the application of the team to relocate to Seattle, Washington. The passion, will and vision Ranadive's group expressed for the future of the Kings in Sacramento lead the league's Board of Governors to unanimously approve the sale of the team on May 28, 2013. The Maloof family had owned the team for 14 seasons after taking control of the Kings and ARCO Arena on July 1, 1999. The Maloofs succeeded Jim Thomas, who had owned the franchise since April 6, 1992. The Maloof family’s interest in purchasing the Kings, Monarchs (WNBA) and ARCO Arena originated in 1997 when they contacted Thomas regarding the availability of the teams and arena. On January 14, 1998, the Maloofs completed the purchase of a minority limited partnership in the organization’s franchises and ARCO Arena. On January 15, 1999, the Maloofs subsequently purchased controlling interest, effective July 1, 1999. The NBA Board of Governors unanimously approved the ownership transfer on May 7, 1999, in New York, at which time the Board of Governors appointed Joe Maloof to the Board. The Kings franchise made its NBA debut in 1948 as the Rochester Royals under the ownership of Les Harrison.

    Finding Potential Objects in Uncertain Dataset by Using Competition Power 1305 Finding Potential Objects in Uncertain Dataset by Using Competition Power Sheng-Fu Yang, Guanling Lee, Shou-Chih Lo Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering, National Dong Hwa University, Taiwan [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] * Abstract points, {B, E} is the skyline point in this database. By using the skyline concept, we can retrieve excellent In the past studies, it has been proven that skyline data points in the dataset. queries and dominating queries are very useful in applications such as multi-preference analysis and multi- Table 1. Player information criteria decision making. In real applications, such as Player Scoring Rebounding environmental monitoring and market analysis, the data A 20 6 often have uncertain characteristics, and the uncertainty B 18 18 of the data mainly comes from the data randomness, the C 20 3 limitation of the measuring instrument or the delay of D 30 6 updating the data. Therefore, in this paper, by using the E 35 6 dominance concept, we propose an efficient method to F 32 4 help users screen out better data objects in multi- dimensional uncertain dataset. Furthermore, an The concept of the skyline operator was first appropriate probability model is also proposed to introduced in [3], which explores three algorithms: the objectively calculate the scores of uncertain data. To block nested loops (BNL), divide and conquer, and B- show the benefit of the approach, a set of experiment is performed on both synthetic and real datasets.
