Strengthening the Zipper

Electronic Notes in Theoretical Computer Science, 2010
AbstractThe zipper is a well known design pattern for providing a cursor-like interface to a data structure. However, the classic treatise by Huet only scratches the surface of some of its potential applications. In this paper we take inspiration from Huet, and describe a library suitable as an underpinning for structured editors.

Strengthening Rödl's theorem

Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series B, 2023
What can be said about the structure of graphs that do not contain an induced copy of some graph H? Rodl showed in the 1980s that every H-free graph has large parts that are very dense or very sparse. More precisely, let us say that a graph F on n vertices is c-restricted if either F or its complement has maximum degree at most cn. Rodl proved that for

Improving TB case notification in northern Uganda: evidence of a quality improvement-guided active case finding intervention

BMC Health Services Research, 2018
Background Strategies to identify and treat undiagnosed prevalent cases that have not sought diagnostic services on their own, are necessary to treat TB in patients earlier and interrupt transmission. Late presentation for medical services of symptomatic

Quality improvement as a framework for behavior change interventions in HIV-predisposed communities: a case of adolescent girls and young women in northern Uganda

AIDS Research and Therapy, 2018
Background Despite the conventional approaches to HIV prevention being the bedrock for early reductions in HIV infections in Uganda, innovations that demonstrate reduction in risk to infection in vulnerable populations need to be embraced urgently.

Can verbal suggestions strengthen the effects of a relaxation intervention? [PDF]

, 2019
Short stress management interventions such as relaxation therapy have demonstrated preliminary effectiveness in reducing stress-related problems. A promising tool to strengthen the effectiveness of relaxation-based interventions is the use of verbal ...

Microstructures and strengthening mechanism of 2D laminated structures in Ni balls after high‐speed collisions with 316 L stainless steel

Engineering Reports, 2023
In many cases, due to high surface stress, stress concentration and wear, the metal material starts to fail from the surface. It is necessary to investigate interface evolution characteristics under high‐speed collisions for widely used metal materials ...
