The Least Conjunctive Refinement and Promotion in the Refinement Calculus

Formal Aspects of Computing, 1999
Abstract. A syntactic calculation of Morgan's least conjunctive refinement operator for predicate transformers is developed. The operator is used to develop a general approach to lifting relational operators to predicate transformer operators.

Brachioplasty Refinements

Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, 2020
Summary: With a growing massive weight loss population, upper arm contouring continues to rise in popularity. Refinements in technique, such as modification of skin excision patterns and the adjunct use of liposuction, have allowed for safe and reproducible results.

Refinement: An overview

2006
The purpose of this initial chapter is to introduce concepts and techniques assumed as general background in the remaining chapters of this book. The relevant notions are introduced using a simple and well-known programming notation: Dijkstra’s language of guarded commands [18], presented in Section [1].

Emergence and refinement

Formal Aspects of Computing, 2012
Abstract Emergent behaviour—system behaviour not determined by the behaviours of system components when considered in isolation—is commonplace in multi-agent systems, particularly when agents adapt to environmental change. This article considers the manner in which Formal Methods may be used to authenticate the trustworthiness of such systems.

Refinement and depth

2021
In this chapter, we will shape up visual elements and implement visual structure together with code structure. Visual elements can evolve best when the idea is still under construction, and we can follow new inspirations from working with code. We will also dig a bit deeper in working with data structures and unleash new powers of Processing.

Exploring structural variations of hydrogen-bonding patterns in cellulose during mechanical pulp refining of tobacco stems.

Carbohydrate Polymers, 2019
Hydrogen bonding and mechanical refining are closely correlated. In this work, structural variations of hydrogen bonding patterns in cellulose during mechanical pulp refining, including the hydrogen bonding energy and distance as well as the content of ...

Refining of edible oils

, 2020
The main objective of refining is to remove the undesirable components in the crude oil to produce the oil with good quality and consumer acceptance. However, this refining process requires to be tailored for different types of oil due to the differences

Refinement Selection

2015
Counterexample-guided abstraction refinement CEGAR is a property-directed approach for the automatic construction of an abstract model for a given system. The approach learns information from infeasible error paths in order to refine the abstract model.

Equivalences and refinement

1990
We investigate equivalence notions for concurrent systems. We consider “linear time” approaches where the system behaviour is characterised as the set of possible runs as well as “branching time” approaches where the conflict structure of systems is taken into account. We show that the usual interleaving equivalences, and also the equivalences based on

Petroleum Refining

Scientific American, 1919
<div class="htmlview paragraph">A short account of the discovery and early development of the oils in the Appalachian Field is followed by a description of several oil-testing instruments and of modern refinery practice with diagrams and drawings.
