Large software systems are difficult to understand and maintain. Program dependency analysis plays a key role in both understanding and maintenance. This paper discusses hidden dependencies among software components that make both understanding and maintenance hard. Hidden dependency is a relationship between two seemingly independent components and it is caused by a data flow inside of a third...

According to Architecture curriculum, the History of Islamic Architecture Introduction is the only course in architecture curriculum in Architecture Faculties that is about Islamic architecture. The overall objectives of the course are: familiarity with the concept of Islamic architecture, understanding spatial characteristics and special qualities of this type of architecture, being familiar w...

Dependency distance is closely related to human working memory capacity, but is also influenced by other non-cognitive factors. Studies of dependency distance contribute to the understanding of the universalities and peculiarities of languages as well as human cognitive processes in language. Forty two sentence sets were selected from a parallel English–Chinese dependency treebank to examine th...

This article relates to debates about dependency of countries in the global political economy. It conceptualises by drawing on concept ‘mechanisms dependency’, and builds a synergy with Comparative Capitalisms (CC) literature (i.e. institutional third-generation perspectives). The expands Varieties Capitalism (VoC) framework applying established category Dependent Market Economy Greece. Buildin...

Understanding the temperature dependency of triplet-triplet annihilation upconversion (TTA-UC) is important for optimizing biological applications of upconversion. Here the temperature dependency of red-to-blue TTA-UC is reported in a variety of neutral PEGylated phospholipid liposomes. In these systems a delicate balance between lateral diffusion rate of the dyes, annihilator aggregation, and ...

(ABSTRACT) With the prevalence of large data stored in the cloud, including unstructured information in the form of text, there is now an increased emphasis on text mining. A broad range of techniques are now used for text mining, including algorithms adapted from machine learning, NLP, computational linguistics, and data mining. Applications are also multi-fold, including classification, clust...

Spatial and temporal variation in interactions among plants, other species and the abiotic environment create context-dependency in vegetation pattern. We argue that we can enhance understanding of context-dependency by being more explicit about the kinds of direct interactions that occur among more than two living and non-living entities (i. e., third through nth parties) and formalizing how t...

Many shallow natural language understanding tasks use dependency trees to extract relations between content words. However, strict surface-structure dependency trees tend to follow the linguistic structure of sentences too closely and frequently fail to provide direct relations between content words. To mitigate this problem, the original Stanford Dependencies representation also defines two de...
