The software testing state of practice is not as good as it ought to be. To reduce the gap between the state of practice and the state of the art, improvement of software testing is necessary. Existing improvement models focus too little on, or lack important aspects of, software testing. Therefore a new model is required. This paper describes a test improvement model called TIM. The model func...

The V-model represents a software development process (also applicable to hardware development) which may be considered an extension of the waterfall model. Instead of moving dow n in a linear w ay, the process steps are bent upwards after the coding phase, to form the typical V shape. The V-Model demonstrates the relationship between each phase of the development life cycle and its associated ...

of recognizing an important correlation if we obtained one. Nevertheless, I contend that much has been learned about cancer and cancer chemotherapy—at the molecular level, the cellular level, the animal tumor level, and the clinical level. We may even be approaching a point when objective interdigitation of what we have learned from many model systems can lead to more rational and efficient a...

In the area of student knowledge assessment, knowledge tracing is a model that has been used for over a decade to predict student knowledge and performance. Many modifications to this model have been proposed and evaluated, however, the modifications are often based on a combination of intuition and experience in the domain. This method of model improvement can be difficult for researchers with...

Enzymes are one of the most important biomolecules which has a wide range of applications in industrial as well as biomedical field. They are important due to their many useful properties. Their development, to a great extent, has been possible due to the availability of microbial sources. Microorganisms are of much attention because they can be produced economically and are amenable to genetic...

The history and origins of proficiency testing of clinical laboratories are reviewed. Since the introduction of proficiency testing in the late 1940s, dramatic improvement in laboratory performance has been demonstrated. Nonetheless, the poor performance found two decades earlier was summoned to support the passage of the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Act of 1967 (CLIA '67).

 This study deals with line balancing of BOB T-shirt model with the help of control limit analysis and discrete event simulation of the assembly lines. In this study control limit analysis is used to measure the performance of the assembly line and used to show the bottleneck operations of the assembly line and line balancing technique improves the productivity of the sewing line of the model. ...

line to/cal/3/7c//bb/cno/5/cal//cno/sn64/4/cno//bad/dar/3/kl/6/sabalan was received from icarda under international winter wheat improvement in 1999-2000 cropping season. based on its favorable agronomic characteristics, it was selected for further evaluations in advanced and elite yield trials in main research stations of dryland agricultural research institute (dari) and on farm yield trials ...
