Translating Colored Control Flow Nets into Readable Java via Annotated Java Workflow Nets
"... Abstract. In this paper, we present a method for developing Java applications from Colored Control Flow Nets (CCFNs), which is a special kind of Colored Petri Nets (CPNs) that we introduce. CCFN makes an explicit distinction between the representation of: The system, the environment of the system, a ..."

An integrative theory of prefrontal cortex function.
- Annual Review of Neuroscience,
, 2001
"... Abstract The prefrontal cortex has long been suspected to play an important role in cognitive control, in the ability to orchestrate thought and action in accordance with internal goals. Its neural basis, however, has remained a mystery. Here, we propose that cognitive control stems from the active ..."

the active maintenance of patterns of activity in the prefrontal cortex that represent goals and the means to achieve them. They provide bias signals to other brain structures whose net effect is to guide the flow of activity along neural pathways that establish the proper mappings between inputs, internal
Managerial Discretion and Optimal Financing Policies

"... I analyze financing policies in a firm owned by atomistic shareholders who observe neither cash flows nor management’s investment decisions. Management derives perquisites from investment and invests as much as possible. Since it always claims that cash flow is too low to fund all positive net prese ..."

Petrify: a tool for manipulating concurrent specifications and . . .
"... Petrify is a tool for (1) manipulating concurrent specifications and (2) synthesis and optimization of asynchronous control circuits. Given a Petri Net (PN), a Signal Transition Graph (STG), or a Transition System (TS) 1 it (1) generates another PN or STG which is simpler than the original descripti ..."

NetScope: Traffic Engineering for IP Networks
- IEEE NETWORK MAGAZINE
, 2000
"... Managing large IP networks requires an understanding of the current traffic ows, routing policies, and network configuration. Yet, the state-of-the-art for managing IP networks involves manual con guration of each IP router, and traffic engineering based on limited measurements. The networking indus ..."

-wide implications of local changes in traffic, con guration, and control. Using NetScope, a network provider can experiment with changes in network configuration in a simulated environment, rather than the operational network. In addition, the tool provides a sound framework for additional modules for network
Optimizing Multi-Feature Queries for Image Databases
, 2000
"... In digital libraries image retrieval queries can be based on the similarity of objects, using several feature attributes like shape, texture, color or text. Such multi-feature queries return a ranked result set instead of exact matches. Besides, the user wants to see only the k top-ranked objec ..."

Workflow ControlFlow Patterns: A Revised View
, 2006
"... The Workflow Patterns Initiative was established with the aim of delineating the fundamental requirements that arise during business process modelling on a recurring basis and describe them in an imperative way. The first deliverable of this research project was a set of twenty patterns describing t ..."

Detailed context conditions and evaluation criteria are presented for each pattern and their implementation
Towards a Pattern Language for Colored Petri Nets
, 2005
"... Experienced Petri net modelers model in terms of patterns, just like object-oriented programmers use the design patterns of Gamma et al. So far there is no any structured collection of patterns for Colored Petri Nets. We have empirically collected 34 patterns in Colored Petri Nets and documented ..."

and documented them in the pattern format. The patterns focus on the interplay between data-flow and control-flow, (i.e. the essence of Colored Petri Nets), and have been modeled using CPN Tools. The goal of the patterns is to assist and train inexperienced modelers, and to serve as a domain language
Time domain passivity control of haptic interfaces
- IEEE Transactions on Robotics and Automation
, 2002
"... A patent pending, energy based, method is presented for controlling a haptic interface system to ensure stable contact under a wide variety of operating conditions. System stability is analyzed in terms of the time- domain definition of passivity. We define a "Passivity Observer" ( ..."
