To evolve object-oriented code, one must understand both the code structure in terms of classes, and the runtime structure in terms of abstractions of objects that are being created and relations between those objects. To help with this understanding, static program analysis can extract heap abstractions such as object graphs. But the extracted graphs can become too large if they do not suffici...

Magnetic resonance imaging is considered low risk, yet recent studies have raised a concern of potential damage to DNA in peripheral blood leukocytes. This prospective Institutional Review Board-approved study examined potential double-strand DNA damage by analyzing changes in the DNA damage and repair markers γH2AX and 53BP1 in patients who underwent a 1.5 T gadolinium-enhanced cardiac magneti...

We consid Linear Collider Collaboration Tech Notes Abstract This note documents a set of expressions used to explore the issue of whether or not it is reasonable to consider a conventional positron source for a Tesla formatted beam. The critical issue is that of energy deposition in the conversion target and the comparison of the induced stress with the ultimate tensile strength of the target m...

Introduction: CryoShipper and CryoFreezer tanks were designed to safely transport store biological material at cryogenic temperatures. An adverse warming event may occur if the CryoShipper is tilted during transit temperature proper levels of liquid nitrogen (LN2) vapors are not maintained. Storing hematopoietic stem cell samples for a short or long time requires validating all pieces eq...
