The proliferation kinetics of a fast-growing spontaneous mouse mammary tumor subline (SMT-F) and a slow-growing spontaneous mouse mammary tumor subline (SMT-S) tumor have been determined autoradiographically at 2 different stages of tumor growth. The length of the cell cycle and the growth fraction for SMT-F were 11.2 hr and 0.85, respectively, on Day 14 and 12.1 hr and 0.78 on Day 28. For SMT-...

OBJECTIVES Spinal manual therapy (SMT) is commonly used for treatment of musculoskeletal pain in the neck, upper back, or upper extremity. Some authors report a multi-system effect of SMT, including peripheral alterations in skin conductance and skin temperature, suggesting that SMT may initiate a sympathetic nervous system (SNS) response. The focus of this evidence-based review and meta-analys...

This study investigates the effect of synchronized metronome training (SMT) on motor timing and how this training might affect golf shot accuracy. Twenty-six experienced male golfers participated (mean age 27 years; mean golf handicap 12.6) in this study. Pre- and post-test investigations of golf shots made by three different clubs were conducted by use of a golf simulator. The golfers were ran...

BACKGROUND In the UK Physiotherapy, Chiropractic and Osteopathy are all statutory regulated professions. Though guidelines have supported the use of Spinal Manipulative Therapy (SMT) for low back pain (LBP), General Practitioners (GP) referral patterns to the 3 registered professions that perform SMT are generally unknown. METHOD A short questionnaire was designed and piloted. Demographic inf...

Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT) tolerates latency by executing instructions from multiple threads. If a thread is stalled, resources can be used by other threads. However, fetch stall conditions caused by multi-cycle branch predictors prevent SMT to achieve all its potential performance, since the flow of fetched instructions is halted. This paper proposes and evaluates solutions to deal with...

We improve the quality of statistical machine translation (SMT) by applying models that predict word forms from their stems using extensive morphological and syntactic information from both the source and target languages. Our inflection generation models are trained independently of the SMT system. We investigate different ways of combining the inflection prediction component with the SMT syst...

The standard input format for Satisfiability Modulo Theories (SMT) solvers has now reached its second version and integrates many of the features useful for users to interact with their favourite SMT solver. However, although many SMT solvers do output proofs, no standardised proof format exists. We, here, propose for discussion at the PxTP Workshop a generic proof format in the SMT-LIB philoso...

Decision procedures for checking satisfiability of logical formulas are crucial for many verification applications. Of particular recent interest are solvers for Satisfiability Modulo Theories (SMT). SMT solvers decide logical satisfiability (or dually, validity) of formulas in classical multi-sorted first-order logic with equality, with respect to a background theory. The success of SMT for ve...

In its early development, machine translation adopted rule-based approaches, which can include the use of language syntax. The late 1980s and early 1990s saw the inception of the statistical machine translation (SMT) approach, where translation models can be learned automatically from a parallel corpus rather than created manually by humans. Initial SMT models were word-based and phrase-based, ...

Abstract Bitwuzla is a new SMT solver for the quantifier-free and quantified theories of fixed-size bit-vectors, arrays, floating-point arithmetic, uninterpreted functions. This paper serves as comprehensive system description its architecture components. We evaluate Bitwuzla’s performance on all benchmarks supported logics in SMT-LIB provide comparison against other state-of-the-art solvers.
