This contribution presents the formalism of Elementary Object Systems (Eos). Object nets are Petri nets which have Petri nets as tokens – an approach known as the nets-within-nets paradigm. Since object nets in general are immediately Turing complete, we introduce the restricted class of elementary object nets which restrict the nesting of nets to the depth of two. One central aim of this contr...

In earlier work, we showed that the AspectJ notions of aspect and class can be unified in a new module construct that we called the classpect, and that this new model is simpler and able to accommodate a broader set of requirements for modular solutions to complex integration problems. We embodied our unified model in the Eos language design. The main contribution of this work is an analysis of...

Patients of late onset schizophrenia (LOS) (13 subjects), early onset schizophrenia (EOS) current age above 40 years (15 subjects) and early onset schizophrenia (EOS)- current age at or below 40 years (15 subjects) were compared. The LOS group differed from the two EOS groups only in having higher score on the item 'persecutory delusions'. The findings do not support the diagnostic validity of ...

In order to avoid electrical overstress (EOS) fails right from the beginning of the design process, a pro-active methodology is proposed that accounts for the special characteristics of integrated circuits (ICs) and their applications in order to deal with EOS in the design, handling and application of ICs. Zusammenfassung – Zur frühzeitigen Vermeidung von EOS-Ausfällen wird eine pro-aktive Met...

EOS provides a formal framework for automated knowledge processing. The EOS framework combines theoretical foundations derived from epistemology and ontology with recent advances in the fields of knowledge representation and processing. As such it allows for an explicit modeling of domain knowledge on the ontological as well as on the epistemic layer, which ensures a flexible, modular system ar...

RATIONALE There is increasing interest regarding asthma heterogeneity in relation to inflammatory patterns. OBJECTIVES To assess phenotypic characteristics, in particular clinical presentation of the disease, in 381 well-characterised adults with asthma from the French Epidemiological study on the Genetics and Environment of Asthma (EGEA) according to their blood inflammatory pattern. METHO...

We study characteristics of the relativistic equation of state (EOS) for collapse-driven supernovae, which is derived by relativistic nuclear many body theory. Recently the relativistic EOS table has become available as a new complete set of physical EOS for numerical simulations of supernova explosion. We examine this EOS table by using general relativistic hydrodynamics of the gravitational c...

Essential oils (EOs) are mixtures of secondary metabolites of plant origin with many useful properties, among which the antimicrobial activity is also of interest for the food industry. EOs can exert their antimicrobial potential both directly, in food products and active packaging, and indirectly, as sanitizing and anti-biofilm agents of food facility surfaces. Aim of this research was to eval...

Exploring natural plant products as an option to find new chemical entities as anticancer agents is one of the fastest growing areas of research. Recently, in the last decade, essential oils (EOs) have been under study for their use in cancer therapy and the present review is an attempt to collect and document the available studies indicating EOs and their constituents as anticancer agents. Thi...
