The Software Principle of Locality
The principle of locality in software development states that: the person working closely, in terms of both space and time, to an artefact is the most qualified person to remove defects associated with it. This paper examines breaches to the principle and how they affect productivity on a software project. The paper also examines techniques that, consciously or not, respect the principle and ve...
متن کاملNonlinear Quantum Mechanics and Locality∗
It is shown that, in order to avoid unacceptable nonlocal effects, the free parameters of the general Doebner-Goldin equation have to be chosen such that this nonlinear Schrödinger equation becomes Galilean covariant.
متن کاملWave Mechanics
1 The Schrödinger equation In classical mechanics the motion of a particle is usually described using the time-dependent position ix(t) as the dynamical variable. In wave mechanics the dynamical variable is a wavefunction. This wavefunction depends on position and on time and it is a complex number – it belongs to the complex numbers C (we denote the real numbers by R). When all three dimension...
متن کاملThe equivalence principle in classical mechanics and quantum mechanics ∗
We discuss our understanding of the equivalence principle in both classical mechanics and quantum mechanics. We show that not only does the equivalence principle hold for the trajectories of quantum particles in a background gravitational field, but also that it is only because of this that the equivalence principle is even to be expected to hold for classical particles at all. While the equiva...
متن کاملCounterfactuals and Non-locality of Quantum Mechanics
In the paper the proof of the non-locality of quantum mechanics, given recently by H. Stapp and D. Bedford, and appealing to the GHZ example, is analyzed. The proof does not contain any explicit assumption of realism, but instead it uses formal methods and techniques of the Lewis calculus of counterfactuals. To ascertain the validity of the proof, a formal semantic model for counterfactuals is ...
