Program slicing has been developed as a standard technique used in various software engineering activit ies including program understanding, testing, debugging, maintenance, and complexity measurement. Although both static and dynamic slicing of sequential programs have been applied to software engineering practices, there still are some challenges, problems and issues in slicing concurrent pro...

The invention of computer simulations used for practicing surgical maneuvers in a video game-like format has an ancestry in the artificial limbs of history and is reflected, grotesquely, in Edgar Allan Poe's short story, "The Man That Was Used Up" (1850). The nineteenth century worked to ensure that the incomplete body did indeed retain a sense of self by creating prostheses to mimic corporeal ...

Results Students who described themselves as being more religious had lower levels of body dissatisfaction. Furthermore, all 9 SRPB facets were correlated with lower levels of DEP. However, wholeness & integration, and to a lesser extent inner peace derived from strong SRPBs were found to best predict lower levels of DEP. Conclusions Significant associations were found between SRPBs and lower l...

Abstract This paper assesses leading Japanese philosophical thought since the onset of Japan’s modernity: namely, from Meiji Restoration (1868) onwards. It argues that there are lessons global value for AI ethics to be found examining philosophers modernity and (Yukichi Fukuzawa, Nishida Kitaro, Nishi Amane, Watsuji Tetsurō), each whom engaged closely with Western traditions. Turning these allo...

Rates of stress, anxiety, depression, and burnout for university students are concerning. As in other competitive professional fields, graduate occupational therapy, physical speech language pathology face many performance pressures. Creating supportive learning wholeness climates along with individual grit, resilience, healthy spirituality have the potential to positively impact these The stud...

In this paper we discuss the possibility of understanding quantum phenomena such as interference and quantum non-locality (i.e. Bohr’s notion of wholeness) by assuming an underlying notion of activity or process rather than the conventional approach which uses fields-ininteraction. By exploiting some ideas of Grassmann, we show how Clifford algebras essential to relativistic electron physics ca...
