The current draft revision of ISO/IEC 42010 (IEEE Std 1471) proposes a formalization of architecture framework within the ontology of the standard. This paper discusses the origin of the concept, motivates its standardization in ISO/IEC 42010, and argues that a well-defined architecture framework should be a key component of any architecture description. The paper describes the application of t...

This review traces progress made in the field of visual motion research from 1985 through to 2010. While it is certainly not exhaustive, it attempts to cover most of the major achievements during that period, and speculate on where the field is heading.

Slower price inflation in 1985 translated into slower growth of national health expenditures, but underlying growth in the use of goods and services continued along historic trends. Coupled with somewhat sluggish growth of the gross national product, this adherence to trends pushed the share of our Nation's output accounted for by health spending to 10.7 percent. Some aspects of health spending...

Schrödinger equation, the neutron transport equation, Maxwell's equations, and the Dirac equation. A notable feature of the book is the treatment of second-order elliptic and parabolic problems in L and L spaces. Fattorini does a nice job of explaining the Agmon-Douglis-Nirenberg elliptic machinery (in the second-order case), making it accessible to a wide audience. An important feature of the ...

Near-field ranges operate by measuring the electromagnetic field near the antenna and then mathematically transforming the data to any arbitrary location. Near-field operations are a form of microwave holography. The wave front measurements are normally made on a planar, spherical or cylindrical surface. This paper discusses primarily the planar configurations as used in the measurement of larg...

The international mathematics community has recently celebrated the 100th anniversary of Gabor SzegS"s birth. 1 Gabor Szeg6 was 90 years old when he died. He was born in Kunhegyes on January 20,1895, and died in Palo Alto on August 7, 1985. His mother's and father's names were Hermina Neuman and Adolf Szeg6, respectively.
