Probabilistic Program Abstractions [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2017
Abstraction is a fundamental tool for reasoning about complex systems. Program abstraction has been utilized to great effect for analyzing deterministic programs. At the heart of program abstraction is the relationship between a concrete program, which is difficult to analyze, and an abstract program, which is more tractable.

Object-Oriented Programming and Parallelism [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Initially, object-orientation and parallelism originated and developed as separate and relatively independent areas. During the last decade, however, more and more researchers were attracted by the benefits from a potential marriage of the two powerful ...

Material Composition Gradient Controls the Autonomous Opening of Banksia Seed Pods in Fire‐Prone Habitats

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The seed pod valves of Australian Banksia attenuata plants are not simply bi‐layers which bend when dry. These experiments and models reveal complex mechanics, which allow seed release only after several steps of seed pod opening. Stiffness gradients prevent delamination of the valves during loading, and a shape‐memory function protects the seeds ...

An “Ion Harvester” Battery in Soil Empowered by a Microfluidic Pump and Interlayer Confinement within Micro‐Swiss‐Rolls

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A microfluidic pump and microscale container for fast redox reactions are integrated into a micro‐Swiss‐roll structure via the micro‐origami. Therefore, the twin‐Swiss‐roll microbattery efficiently extracts water and soluble Zn2+ and Mn2+ ions in the wet soil, delivering a stable voltage exceeding 1 V and more than 40 times the energy of soil microbial

Ultra‐Fast Non‐Volatile Resistive Switching Devices with Over 512 Distinct and Stable Levels for Memory and Neuromorphic Computing

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A materials and device design concept that comprises a self‐assembled ultra‐thin epitaxial ion‐transporting layer, an amorphous oxide overcoat oxygen‐blocking layer, and a partial filament formed during an electroforming step is proposed for low‐current multilevel resistive switching devices.

Requirements engineering-challenges from the agent-oriented approach

open access: yesJournal of Computer Science and Technology, 2005
Many methodologies have been proposed to systematize the software development process. Many of them have been widely adopted. However, the majority has focused on analysis and design.

Dynamic Neural Program Embedding for Program Repair [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2017
Neural program embeddings have shown much promise recently for a variety of program analysis tasks, including program synthesis, program repair, fault localization, etc. However, most existing program embeddings are based on syntactic features of programs, such as raw token sequences or abstract syntax trees.
