Testing and Validating Against Historic Spills

Nondestructive Testing of Historic Structures

Nondestructive testing (NDT) of historic structures can be used for architectural archaeology, structural stability analysis, or materials characterization. Four types of physical probes are available: sound, penetrating radiation, visible light, and electromagnetism. Each of these can be utilized in several ways. Additional options involve hybrid techniques that combine probe methods. Widespre...

Testing and validating frames for online organizations

In this paper we suggest that online environments can function as alternate “organizations” for pre-service and beginning teachers who may find themselves struggling in schools. Building on prior work on framing and reframing in organizations and schools, the authors present a new frame of analysis specifically geared for web-based learning/support communities. Data consist of transcripts from ...

Testing and Validating Tests for Reproducible Experiments

which are needed for high-speed operation mode, require purchasing a license. In netmap user space applications do not have direct access to the NIC’s registers. This is a safety precaution as a misconfigured NIC can crash the whole system by corrupting memory [20]. This restriction in netmap is critical as it is designed to be included in an operating system: netmap is already part of the Free...

Testing and validating machine learning classifiers by metamorphic testing

Machine Learning algorithms have provided core functionality to many application domains - such as bioinformatics, computational linguistics, etc. However, it is difficult to detect faults in such applications because often there is no "test oracle" to verify the correctness of the computed outputs. To help address the software quality, in this paper we present a technique for testing the imple...
