We address the problem of testing security-relevant software, especially privileged (typically setuid root) and daemon programs in UNIX. The problem is important , since it is these programs that are the source of most UNIX security aws. For some programs, such as the UNIX sendmail program, new security aws are still discovered, despite being in use for years. For special-purpose systems with f...

BACKGROUND In the context of breast cancer, axillary web syndrome (AWS), also called lymphatic cording, typically presents in the weeks after axillary surgery. This painful condition, likely lymphofibrotic in origin, restricts upper extremity range of motion (ROM). There is no established treatment, although physical therapy and other approaches have been used to variable effect. This report de...

BACKGROUND The Pentax Airway Scope (AWS) is a video laryngoscope designed to facilitate tracheal intubation with a high-resolution image. The Pentax AWS has been reported to cause less hemodynamic stress than the Macintosh laryngoscope. The aims of this study are to investigate the differences in hemodynamic responses and norepinephrine concentrations to tracheal intubation between procedures u...

Web Services has become the infrastructure to connect business applications over the Internet. Under the current Web Services, however, stakeholder systems must follow the predefined rules for a particular business service including those about business protocols to send/receive messages and about system operation. Only the systems built strictly to follow the predefined rules can participate i...

Alcoholism is common among trauma patients and often lacks the appropriate monitoring. Alcohol withdrawal syndrome (AWS), including delirium tremens (DT), can be associated with significant postoperative morbidity and mortality. However, appropriate acute pain management may protect against delirium; the administration of intravenous patient-controlled analgesia (IV - PCA) may not only alleviat...

Abstract This article focuses on the application of autonomous weapons (AWs) in defensive systems and, consequently, assesses conditions legality employing such from perspective right to self-defence. How far may humans exert control over AWs? Are there any legal constraints using AWs for purpose self-defence? does their use fit into traditional criteria The claims that are no grounds exclude a...

The contribution of this paper is to identify and describe current best practices for using Amazon Web Services (AWS) to execute neuroimaging workflows "in the cloud." Neuroimaging offers a vast set of techniques by which to interrogate the structure and function of the living brain. However, many of the scientists for whom neuroimaging is an extremely important tool have limited training in pa...

Acropora white syndrome (AWS) is characterized by rapid tissue loss revealing the white underlying skeleton and affects corals worldwide; however, reports of causal agents are conflicting. Samples were collected from healthy and diseased corals and seawater around American Samoa and bacteria associated with AWS characterized using both culture-dependent and culture-independent methods, from cor...
