چکیده

Abstract According to the theory developed here, we may trace out processes emanating from a cause in such way that any consequence lying along one of these counts as an effect cause. This gives intuitive verdicts diverse range problem cases literature. Its claims about causation will never be retracted when include additional variables our model. And it validates some plausible principles causation, including Sartorio's ‘Causes Difference Makers’ principle and Hitchcock's ‘Principle Sufficient Reason’.

How to Trace Model Elements?

Motivation In model-driven engineering models enjoy the same status as customary source code. During the development process, many different versions or variants of models are created. Thereby, developers need to trace model elements between different versions to answer questions like Since when does element X exist in this model? or When did element Y disappear?. Regarding variants developers ...

//TRACE: Parallel Trace Replay with Approximate Causal Events

//TRACE is a new approach for extracting and replaying traces of parallel applications to recreate their I/O behavior. Its tracing engine automatically discovers inter-node data dependencies and inter-request compute times for each node (process) in an application. This information is reflected in per-node annotated I/O traces. Such annotation allows a parallel replayer to closely mimic the beh...

How to Trace and Revise Identities

The Entity Name System (ENS) is a service aiming at providing globally unique URIs for all kinds of real-world entities such as persons, locations and products, based on descriptions of such entities. Because entity descriptions available to the ENS for deciding on entity identity—Do two entity descriptions refer to the same real-world entity?—are changing over time, the system has to revise it...

How to Make Causal Inferences Using Texts

New text as data techniques offer a great promise: the ability to inductively discover measures that are useful for testing social science theories of interest from large collections of text. We introduce a conceptual framework for making causal inferences with discovered measures as a treatment or outcome. Our framework enables researchers to discover high-dimensional textual interventions and...
