New Implosive Connector Technology for High Voltage Conductors

A new method of splicing high voltage conductors has been making its way into the electrical utility industry, displacing the conventional method at an ever-increasing pace. While conventional technology uses a hydraulic compression process, this new method uses implosive energy to make the splice. This paper describes the basic principals behind this new technology and compares the implosive m...

Language Support for Connector Abstractions

Software connectors are increasingly recognized as an important consideration in the design and implementation of object-oriented software systems. Connectors can be used to communicate across a distributed system, coordinate the activities of several objects, or adapt one object’s interface to the interface of another. Mainstream object-oriented languages, however, do not provide explicit supp...

Connector Inversion Probe Technology: A Powerful One-Primer Multiplex DNA Amplification System for Numerous Scientific Applications

We combined components of a previous assay referred to as Molecular Inversion Probe (MIP) with a complete gap filling strategy, creating a versatile powerful one-primer multiplex amplification system. As a proof-of-concept, this novel method, which employs a Connector Inversion Probe (CIPer), was tested as a genetic tool for pathogen diagnosis, typing, and antibiotic resistance screening with t...

Understanding Software Connector Compatibilities Using a Connector Taxonomy

Software systems of today are frequently composed from prefabricated, heterogeneous components that provide complex functionality and engage in complex interactions. Software architecture research has revealed the importance of component interactions on our ability to perform software composition. Various development organizations have found interaction mismatches to be both difficult and a cor...
