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

Describes how you can layout object-oriented code and accompanying algorithms that may be opposite engineered for higher flexibility in destiny code upkeep and alteration.

Provides crucial object-oriented suggestions 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. it's because the speedy growth in microprocessor velocity has left major reminiscence entry because the basic issue 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.

The results of the particle tracking simulations shown in Figure 9 (using MODPATH), show the flow paths of particles introduced at the injection wells at the source zone prior to and after the PCE spill. As can be seen from Figure 9, the flow bypasses the entrapped PCE zone (see dash ellipses). Therefore, it should be expected that the injected surfactant solution will bypass the entrapment zone, thus reducing the effectiveness of the remediation. 06 m thick. Two constant-head supplies are used to maintain a steady hydraulic gradient throughout the experiment.

2001a&b). 3 of UTCHEM. The location of the source zone is shown in Figure 6. The source zone is discretized into 40 layers and 24 columns. The capillary pressure-saturation relationship assumes Brooks-Corey drainage model. 0 L d−1. The spill location is at the center of the top layer. The spill simulation was conducted for a long time for the spill (migration of PCE) to reach a static state. The resulting simulated PCE distribution is shown in Figure 8. As can be seen from the distribution pattern, most of the PCE is entrapped in high permeability zones.

1996; Dekker & Abriola, 2000). These models in general are designed to solve a coupled set of partial differential equations: unless a large fraction of the entrapped NAPL free phase is removed. In other words, the reduction of dissolved contaminant concentration of the downstream plume may not be achieved unless significant fraction of NAPL in the source zone is removed. It should be noted that Sale and McWhorter (2001) study was conducted under very simplistic conditions. These simplifications include, uniform flow fields, simple entrapment architecture that consisted of a number of NAPL pools and a dissolution model that did not allow for changes in the NAPL saturation.
