Inaccuracies in program profilers
Software: Practice and Experience, 1988AbstractRun‐time program profiling is a valuable tool in understanding software efficiency. Techniques for obtaining profiles make assumptions that may result in misleading data. In the paper we illustrate flaws in two profiling systems: the Unix ‘Gprof’ family (including the packages ‘monitor’, ‘prof’ and ‘profil’), and the TI Explorer metering ...

Inaccuracy in Clinical Trials: Effects and Methods to Control Inaccuracy
Current Alzheimer Research, 2010The increasing rate of failed trails found in mood and anxiety disorders is now being seen in Alzheimer's studies. Factors related to the administration of clinician rating scales, such as poor inter-rater reliability, poor interview quality and rater bias may be a contributing factor.

On generalized measures of inaccuracy
Information Sciences, 1981Abstract We have characterized axiomatically some parametric measures of inaccuracy, without assuming the prior existence of the parameter occurring in their mathematical forms.

2011 IEEE Custom Integrated Circuits Conference (CICC), 2011
Since the beginning of time, timing accuracy has been strived for by clock designers. Although everyone has an intuitive sense of what clock accuracy and stability means, there is often an implicit comparison to some sort of assumed reference. In this talk, we will discuss the general notion of oscillator instability and evaluate the oscillator short ...

Inaccuracy and the Recognition of ?RNA
1990Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the central role of glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase (GlnRS) in misaminoacylation (or mischarging) and the implication of these results for the recognition of tRNA by GlnRS. One way of ensuring correct charging is to build mechanisms for error correction into aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases.

INACCURACY OF ELECTRONIC SPHYGMOMANOMETERS
Clinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology, 1992SUMMARY1. Eight electronic sphygmomanometers were purchased locally and evaluated for clinical accuracy during blood pressure recording on volunteer patients.2. Direct comparisons of systolic and diastolic pressure were made in seven devices using a Y‐tube connection to a mercury sphygmomanometer, simultaneous measurements being made by a trained ...

Inaccuracy of forehead thermometers
BMJ, 2013I wish to alert readers, both hospital doctors and general practitioners, to the increasing use of forehead thermometers in hospitals in the UK.1 These thermometers are bought because, not needing probe covers, they are cheaper. No formal health technology assessment of these devices has been performed, in the UK or elsewhere.

A Review of Diagnostic Inaccuracy
Medicine, Science and the Law, 1995A review is presented of autopsy evidence demonstrating clinical diagnostic inaccuracy. Startling results emerge: the major clinical diagnosis is not confirmed in up to 45 per cent of cases, with typical error rates of up to 30 per cent; autopsy reveals unexpected major findings in up to 33 per cent of cases; management should have been different in up
