It-Tools: Self Hosted Collection of Developer Tools and It Utilities

Self-host IT-Tools, a collection of handy developer utilities like formatters and converters. Keep sensitive data private within your network.
Comparing TODIM and CPT-TODIM for Social Sustainability Assessment in G7 Countries
We compare decision-making algorithms to rank G7 countries on social sustainability. CPT-TODIM proves most stable out of TODIM and CoCoSo.
Probability of Real Roots in a Quadratic Equation with Uniform(α,β) Coefficients
We derive a general formula for the probability of real roots when quadratic coefficients are U(α,β), extending our symmetric case result.
Implications of Agricultural Practices on Vegetation and Terrestrial Invertebrates in Riparian Zones
A nonlinear mathematical model shows how unchecked agricultural expansion into riparian zones threatens vegetation and invertebrate populations. Stability analysis reveals the conditions for coexistence.
Probability of Real Roots in a Quadratic Equation with Uniform(-θ,θ) Coefficients
What's the chance a quadratic has real roots when coefficients are random? We find it's 62.7% using probability theory and Monte Carlo simulation.
