Several approaches have been introduced in the last few years to tackle the problem of interpreting model-based performance analysis results and translating them into architectural feedback. Typically the interpretation can take place by browsing either the software model or the performance model. In this paper, we compare two approaches that we have recently introduced for this goal: one based...

The USAS semantic tagger is a powerful language technology tool that has proven to be very effective in various applications such as content analysis, discourse analysis and information extraction. In the Benedict project, we intend to use the semantic taggers for the English and Finnish languages as search tools in electronic dictionaries, thereby enabling users to carry out context-sensitive ...

Opencast mining method is one of the most productive methods available at present, which generally associated with removal and handling a huge amount overburden material. Hence it imposes serious challenge dump slope stability that too, mainly in case internal dumps. The study primarily focused on dragline dumps subsequent development rating system to classify profiles. Initially, numerical sim...

oil and gas transmission pipelines are critical items of infrastructure in providing energy sources to regions and countries. steel pipes are commonly used which can be subject to both internal and external corrosion. this paper presents an advanced nondestructive inspection technique for detection of oil-gas pipeline corrosion defect. the pulsed eddy current (pec) method has been successfully ...

soil characteristics is very important in water erosion processes. the present investigation was conducted in gully lands of ardebil province, iran, to assess the role of soil texture and structure on aggregate stability using wet sieve method. to achieve the study purposes, mean weighted diameter of aggregates was calculated, and its relationships with lime and clay percentages, sodium absorpt...
