The need for test case skimming is inevitable in almost all arenas of software testing owing to the business constraints on the drop dead date of the date of delivery to pass the QA cycle. Trade-offs are often needed to between time and the test coverage to ensure the maximum test cases are covered within the stipulated time, especially on systems that are just entering the production environme...

In the last two decades, research on the hydraulics of skimming flows down stepped chutes was driven by needs for better design guidelines. Skimming flows are characterized by significant momentum transfer from the main stream to the recirculation zones. Investigations are difficult because of the complex nature of the flow, the strong flow aeration, and the interactions between entrained air a...

OBJECTIVE Oxygen tension in the brain is controlled by the microcirculatory supply of RBC, but the effect of non-Newtonian blood flow rheology on tissue oxygenation is not well characterized. This study assesses different biphasic blood flow models for predicting tissue oxygen tension as a function of microcirculatory hemodynamics. METHODS Two existing plasma-skimming laws are compared agains...

Measuring the attention of users is necessary to design smart Human Computer Interaction (HCI) systems. Particularly, in reading, the reading types, so-called reading, skimming, and scanning are signs to express the degree of attentiveness. Eye movements are informative spatiotemporal data to measure quality of reading. Eye tracking technology is the tool to record eye movements. Even though th...

UNLABELLED PREMISE OF THE STUDY As systematists grapple with how to best harness the power of next-generation sequencing (NGS), a deluge of review papers, methods, and analytical tools make choosing the right method difficult. Oreocarya (Boraginaceae), a genus of 63 species, is a good example of a group lacking both species-level resolution and genomic resources. The use of Geneious removes ...

This paper presents factors in designing a system for automatically skimming text documents in response to a question. The system will take a potentially complex question and a single document and return a Web page containing links to text related to the question. The goal is that these text areas be those that visual readers would spend the most time on when skimming for the answer to a questi...

A recent description and analysis of an imprint fossil from the Carboniferous concluded that it was made by a mayfly landing in sediment at the edge of water. Here, I reanalyze that trace fossil and supply experimental evidence regarding wing traces and behavior. The thorax of the trace maker lacked structures characteristic of mayflies, but closely matches a modern neopteran insect family (Tae...
