Short-term spectroscopic variability of Plaskett's star [PDF]
, 2014 Context. Plaskett's star (HD47129) is a very massive O-star binary in a post Roche-lobe overflow stage. CoRoT observations of this system revealed photometric variability with a number of frequencies. Aims. The aim of this paper is to characterize the variations in spectroscopy and investigate their origin. Methods. To sample its short-term variability,

What Good Are Strong Specifications? [PDF]
Proceedings of the 35th International Conference on Software
Engineering (ICSE). Pgg. 257--266, ACM, May 2013, 2012 Experience with lightweight formal methods suggests that programmers are willing to write specification if it brings tangible benefits to their usual development activities. This paper considers stronger specifications and studies whether they can be deployed as an incremental practice that brings additional benefits without being unacceptably ...

PRESLA: An original device to measure the mechanical interaction between tongue and teeth or palate during speech production [PDF]
ISSP'08, France (2008), 49, 2009 An original experimental procedure is presented to measure the mechanical interaction between tongue and teeth and palate during speech production. It consists in using edentulous people as subjects and to insert pressure sensors in the structure of a replication of their dental prosthesis.

A non-invasive device to measure mechanical interaction between tongue, palate and teeth during speech production [PDF]
Proceedings of the 4th International Workshop on Models and
Analysis of Vocal Emissions for Biomedical Applications, MAVEBA'2005 Firenze
University Press (Ed.) (2005) 1-4, 2006 This paper describes an original experimental procedure to measure the mechanical interaction between the tongue and teeth and palate during speech production. It consists in using edentulous people as subjects and to insert pressure sensors in the structure of their complete dental prosthesis.
