Features encapsulate the domain knowledge of a software system and thus are valuable sources of information for a reverse engineer. When analyzing the evolution of a system, we need to know how and which features were modified to recover both the change intention and extent, namely which source artifacts are affected. Typically, the implementation of a feature crosscuts a number of source artif...

In this paper, the evaluation of emission from a PCB by using crosstalk between a low frequency signal trace and a digital signal trace is investigated. These signal traces are closely routed in parallel to each other on the different several signal planes in the PCB. It is shown experimentally that the coupled signal trace with a cable section causes drastic increase of emission from the PCB. ...

Middle to Upper Triassic (Upper Ladinian to Lower Carnian) deep-sea sedimentary rocks crop out across a large area west of Nakhlak village, Central Iran and have been named Ashin Formation. The up to 304m thick, turbiditic, siliciclastic Ashin Formation consists of alternating turbiditic, thin- and medium-bedded calcareous sandstones, purple, fine-grained volcaniclastic sandstones, and mostly g...

‘Contamination’ is a comparative term. In Britain at least, contaminants are trace substances; in the context of food they are distinguished from additives by whether or not there is an intention that the substances should be present when the food is consumed or prepared for consumption. Contaminants may be of natural or of technological origin: and technological contaminants may be direct or i...

TO THE EDITOR: In their recent paper, Cornachione et al. (1) draw three major conclusions: 1) that cardiac myofibrils do not show static tension or residual force enhancement; 2) that static tension/residual force enhancement is directly related to titin isoforms; and 3) that static tension/residual force enhancement is not associated with titin-actin interactions. Here, I would like to point o...

We present an algorithm to self-consistently generate mock weak gravitational lensing convergence fields and galaxy distributions in redshift space. three-dimensional cosmic density that follow a log-normal distribution, ray-trace them produce maps. As we the distribution from same manner consistent with ray-tracing, galaxy-convergence cross-power spectrum measured agrees theoretical expectatio...

Trace conditioning is a form of associative learning that can be induced by presenting a conditioned stimulus (CS) and an unconditioned stimulus (US) following each other, but separated by a temporal gap. This gap distinguishes trace conditioning from classical delay conditioning, where the CS and US overlap. To bridge the temporal gap between both stimuli and to form an association between CS ...

| We illustrate the sensitivity of trace driven simulation results to the completeness of the input trace data. This is done by comparing cache simulation results obtained using traces similar to many found in the published literature with those obtained using a hardware monitor which we have developed. Cache miss rates from single process traces without operating system references are shown to...

The trace assertion method is a formal state machine based method for specifying module A module interface speciication treats the module as a black-box, identifying all module's access programs (i.e. programs that can be invoked from outside of the module), and describing their externally visible eeects. A formal model for the trace assertion method is proposed. The concept of step-traces is i...
