The Gated Single Assignment Program Dependence Graph (GSA PDG) provides an executable dataflow representation for imperative programs that might be useful for hardware synthesis. Existing publications on GSA have not attempted to define interpretation semantics for whole programs including side effects (ie. memory accesses and procedure calls). Published works also contain errors even for side-...

The choice of the best optimization algorithm is a hard issue, and it sometime depends on specific problem. The Gravitational Search Algorithm (GSA) is a search algorithm based on the law of gravity, which states that each particle attracts every other particle with a force called gravitational force. Some revised versions of GSA have been proposed by using intelligent techniques. This work pro...

Gravitational search algorithm (GSA) is a type of optimization algorithm based on the law of gravity and mass interactions, which is lacking of memory ability. To enhance particle memory ability and search accuracy of GSA, a modified GSA (MGSA) is developed. MGSA adopts the idea of local optimum solution and global optimum solution from particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm into GSA. Furt...

Global sensitivity analysis (GSA) is a valuable tool to support the use of mathematical models for environmental systems. During the last years the water quality modelling field has embraced the use of GSA. Environmental water quality modellers have tried to transfer the knowledge and experience acquired in other disciplines. The main objective of this paper is to provide an informed problem st...

Nontutimorous decrease in 99mTc-GSA accumulation has not been well covered in the literature. Understanding of this phenomenon is, however, essential for accurate evaluation of regional hepatic function. Scintigrams (transaxial SPECT) of 269 patients who underwent 99mTc-GSA liver scintigraphy were reviewed for the presence of nontumorous decreases in 99mTc-GSA accumulation. Nontumorous decrease...

Correlation was greater than 90% between feline leukemia virus (FeLV), group-specific antigen (GSA) in leukocytes, and viral infectivity (VI) in serum or plasma from 132 cats infected with either the Rickard strain of FeLV, the Snyder-Theilen strain of feline sarcoma virus, or field strains of FeLV. Detection of GSA in blood cells was at least as sensitive as detection of VI in serum. In 45% of...

The gravitational search algorithm (GSA) is a kind of swarm intelligence optimization algorithm based on the law of gravitation. The parameter initialization of all swarm intelligence optimization algorithms has an important influence on the global optimization ability. Seen from the basic principle of GSA, the convergence rate of GSA is determined by the gravitational constant and the accelera...
