Reverse Engineering of Object Oriented Code (Monographs in Computer Science)

Describes find out how to layout object-oriented code and accompanying algorithms that may be opposite engineered for better flexibility in destiny code upkeep and alteration.

Provides crucial object-oriented ideas and programming tools for software program engineers and researchers.

Algorithm Engineering and Experimentation: International Workshop ALENEX’99 Baltimore, MD, USA, January 15–16, 1999 Selected Papers

Symmetric multiprocessors (SMPs) dominate the high-end server industry and are presently the first candidate for developing huge scale multiprocessor platforms. but, the layout of e cient parallel algorithms for this platform c- rently poses numerous demanding situations. the reason is, the swift growth in microprocessor velocity has left major reminiscence entry because the fundamental predicament to SMP functionality.

Der Klimawandel im Zeitalter technischer Reproduzierbarkeit: Climate Engineering zwischen Risiko und Praxis

​Hannes Fernow führt interdisziplinär in das Thema weather Engineering ein. Er integriert im Rahmen einer Politischen Hermeneutik wissenschaftstheoretische, technikphilosophische und umweltethische Argumente in historisch tradierte Risiko- und Naturverständnisse und zeigt, dass die Folgen von technologischen Klimaveränderungen nicht verlässlich vorhersagbar sind.

In this decision, the roles played by the plant and the State authorities — including security and response agencies — are taken into consideration. 1. ASSESSMENT GUIDELINES: OVERVIEW This publication was developed to assist in capacity evaluations of nuclear facilities subjected to DBT events and events beyond the DBT. The focus of this publication is on engineering safety aspects. Aspects concerning the PPS — specifically, response to intruder threats — are addressed elsewhere. The concept of in-plant evaluations or plant walkdowns is, however, included here.

Deterrence; Detection and assessment; Delay; Response. Vital area identification A vital area is an “area inside a protected area containing equipment, systems or devices, or nuclear material, the sabotage of which could directly or indirectly lead to unacceptable radiological consequences” [1]. Box 6a in Fig. 1 shows the context for identifying the vital areas within a facility. By evaluating the consequences of malicious acts, safety experts, in close cooperation with security experts, identify potential sabotage targets within nuclear facilities that require protection to prevent unacceptable radiological consequences in the case of an attack [1].
