Volume staging for arteriovenous malformation SRS treatment using VMAT
Abstract Volume staging involves dividing the target volume into smaller parts and treating each part separately. In this study, the feasibility of volume‐staged stereotactic radiosurgery (VS‐SRS) on a linear accelerator using volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) and a frameless patient positioning system is investigated.

Synthesis of Large Dynamic Concurrent Programs from Dynamic Specifications [PDF]
We present a tractable method for synthesizing arbitrarily large concurrent programs, for a shared memory model with common hardware-available primitives such as atomic registers, compare-and-swap, load-linked/store conditional, etc. The programs we synthesize are dynamic: new processes can be created and added at run-time, and so our programs are not ...

Optimality Conditions for Nonlinear Semidefinite Programming via Squared Slack Variables
In this work, we derive second-order optimality conditions for nonlinear semidefinite programming (NSDP) problems, by reformulating it as an ordinary nonlinear programming problem using squared slack variables.

CD226+CD8+ T cells express elevated levels of RUNX2, exhibit higher proliferation capacity, cytokines and cytolytic molecules expression, and migratory capacity. In contrast, CD226−CD8+ T cells display an exhausted phenotype associated with the increased expression of co‐inhibitory receptors and impaired effector functions.

Evaluating the Impact of Pair Documentation on Requirements Quality in Agile Software Development
A fundamental deliverable of the requirements engineering process is the software requirements specification (SRS) document. A reliable SRS ensures that the final product aligns with the stakeholder’s expectations.

Strong Equivalence Made Easy: Nested Expressions and Weight Constraints [PDF]
Logic programs P and Q are strongly equivalent if, given any program R, programs P union R and Q union R are equivalent (that is, have the same answer sets). Strong equivalence is convenient for the study of equivalent transformations of logic programs: one can prove that a local change is correct without considering the whole program.

Online tools for virtual pair programming [PDF]
As agile methodologies advance in process maturity we find that most of their practices such as Test-Driven Development, refactoring, and pair programming (specifically for Extreme Programming) are becoming the order of the day in a number of ...

Program quality with pair programming in CS1
In several regression applications, a different structural relationship might be anticipated for the higher or lower responses than the average responses. In such cases, quantile regression analysis can uncover important features that would likely be overlooked by mean regression. We develop two distinct Bayesian approaches to fully nonparametric model-
