There are several literature references which deal with interchange of tangible goods (see e.g. López, Núñez, Rodríguez, & Rubio, 2002). However, when the nature of interchangeable goods is more complex, such as knowledge, some considerations must be taken into account. In case of information " interchange " , it is compulsory to consider that to supply it does not imply that the initial owner ...

Keywords In this paper the theory of Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) is applied to the safety case management domain in order to evaluate its benefits and to assess the potential issues which relate to data exchange within certain industry sectors. Safety case, electronic data interchange (EDI), safety requirements, goal structuring notation (GSN).

Abstract Loop interchange is a powerful restructuring technique for supporting vectorization and parallelization. In this paper, we propose a technique which is better to determine whether loops can be interchanged between two non-adjacent loops. We also present a method for determining whether we can directly make loop interchange on an imperfectly nested loop. Some experimental results are al...

Current research in software reengineering offers a great amount of tools specialized on certain reengineering tasks. The definition of a powerful common interchange format is a key issue to provide interoperability between tools. This paper discusses aspects of data interchange formats for exchanging reengineering related data and proposes a graphbased format to exchange both data and applicat...

The goal of blif is to d escribe a logic-level hierarchical circuit in textual form. A circuit is an arbitrary combinational or sequential network of logic functions. A circuit can be viewed as a directed graph of combinational logic nodes and sequential logic elements. Each n o d e h as a two-level, single-output logic function associated with it. Each feedback l o o p m ust contain at least o...

Electronic data interchange (EDI) is fueling a revolution in the health care industry. The potential for significant reductions in the administrative costs of paying medical claims has everyone from the Health Insurance Association of America, both Democratic and Republican members of Congress, the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and even the President of the...

Signalized diamond interchanges are pairs of ramp intersections characterized by interlocked left turns and relatively close spacing. This paper describes a series of performance measures derived from high-resolution signal controller event data that can be used to optimize the internal phase sequence and offset to improve traffic flows within diamond interchanges and to qualitatively and quant...

BACKGROUND Therapeutic interchange of a same class medication for an outpatient medication is a widespread practice during hospitalization in response to limited hospital formularies. However, therapeutic interchange may increase risk of medication errors. The objective was to characterize the prevalence and safety of therapeutic interchange. METHODS AND FINDINGS Secondary analysis of a trans...

Abstract We complete the 2D 2-fields turbulence model previously used with an interchange-like instability by slightly modifying parallel loss terms to drive drift wave instabilities. show that driven temperature fluctuations of sheath losses is identical turbulence. The linear analysis performed and select control parameters yield maximum growth rates for interchange alone instability. Combini...

The active interchange of intellectual ideas in the quest to improve healthcare globally will likely be best served by active interchange among physicians around the world. Subspecialty fellowship training programs for United States and foreign graduates will provide a focused path to development of a global network of physicians dedicated to the delivery of high-quality emergency health services.
