Simple Register Spilling in a Retargetable Compiler

This paper describes the management of register spills in a retargetable C compiler. Spills are rare, which means that testing is a bigger problem than performance. The trade-offs have been arranged so that the common case (no spills) generates respectable code quickly and the uncommon case (spills) is less efficient but as simple as possible. The technique has proven practical and is in produc...

Quantitation in inflammatory bowel disease using computerised interactive image analysis.

Objective measurements of various histological features in rectal biopsy material were made using computerised interactive image analysis. Analysis of the resulting data by forward stepwise discriminant analysis showed that biopsies from patients with ulcerative colitis and infective diarrhoea could be distinguished from each other and from normal biopsies; they could not, however, be distingui...

AIM OF DATABASE The Danish Register of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (DrCOPD) is a nationwide database aiming to describe the quality of treatment of all patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in Denmark. STUDY POPULATION DrCOPD comprises data on all patients with a diagnosis of COPD. In the hospital setting, both in- and outpatients are included. In the setting of...

Computerised cardiological case notes.

Optical Mark Reader forms have been used by the Cardiac Department at St Thomas's Hospital for six years to store clinical and haemodynamic data by computer. Forms are completed by clinical staff in outpatients and also for those patients undergoing cardiac catheterisation. Three documents are used to record the symptoms and signs at the clinical consultation, the results of relevant investigat...
