We demonstrate the formation of a macroscopically oriented inverse bicontinuous cubic (Q(II)) lipid phase from a sponge (L(3)) phase by controlled hydration during shear flow. The L(3) phase was the monoolein/butanediol/water system; the addition of water reduces the butanediol concentration, inducing the formation of a diamond (Q(II)(D)) cubic phase, which is oriented by the shear flow. The ph...

One approach to developing service-oriented Web applications is to transform high-level business models to a composition language that implements business processes with Web services. Object-oriented analysis and design and UML-based diagrams are typically used in the software development process. In this paper, we propose using flow as a fundamental notion underlying understanding of activitie...

In this paper we describe the design and implementation of a system for representing context-free grammars in C++. The system allows for grammar representation at the object level, providing enhanced modularity and flexibility when compared to traditional generator-based approaches. We also describe the transformation of grammar flow analysis problems into an object-oriented framework using the...

81/2 is a declarative data-parallel language designed for the simulation of large dynamical systems. Such simulations are of growing importance and they requires more and more computing power. In consequence, 81/2 introduces a new entity, the web, that combines features of collection-oriented and data-flow language to express data-, streamand control-parallelism. In this paper, we present the l...
