Principles and methods of Testing Finite State Machines -- a survey
- PROCEEDINGS OF IEEE
, 1996
"... With advanced computer technology, systems are getting larger to fulfill more complicated tasks, however, they are also becoming less reliable. Consequently, testing is an indispensable part of system design and implementation; yet it has proved to be a formidable task for complex systems. This moti ..."

were motivated mainly by automata theory and sequential circuit testing. The area seemed to have mostly died down until a few years ago when the testing problem was resurrected and is now being studied anew due to its applications to conformance testing of communication protocols. While some old
Constructions of Masculinity and their Influence on Men’s Well-Being: A Theory of Gender and Health
- Social Science and Medicine
, 2000
"... Men in the United States suer more severe chronic conditions, have higher death rates for all 15 leading causes of death, and die nearly 7 yr younger than women. Health-related beliefs and behaviours are important contributors to these dierences. Men in the United States are more likely than women t ..."

A general theory of bibliometric and other cumulative advantage processes

, 1976
"... which models statistically the situation in which success breeds success. I t differs from the Negative Binomial Die tribution in that lack of success, being a non-event, is not punished by increased chance of failure. It is shown that such a stochastic law is governed by the Beta Function, containi ..."

Transversality in elliptic Morse theory for the symplectic action
, 1999
"... Our goal in this paper is to settle some transversality question for the perturbed nonlinear Cauchy-Riemann equations on the cylinder. These results play a central role in the definition of symplectic Floer homology and hence in the proof of the Arnold conjecture. There is currently no other referen ..."

reference to these transversality results in the open literature. Our approach does not require Aronszajn's theorem. Instead we derive the unique continuation theorem from a generalization of the Carleman similarity principle. A. Floer died on May 15th, 1991 1 Introduction Let (M; !) be a compact

"... by design What can we learn by “killing ” a neural net? Can we extrapolate our findings to the larger class of parallel distributed processors, including the human brain? Physicist Stephen Thaler says yes, but admits his ideas are controversial. His theories have ignited arguments between physicists ..."

Self-determination and persistence in a real-life setting: Toward a motivational model of high school dropout.
- Journal of Personality and Social Psychology,
, 1997
"... The purpose of this study was to propose and test a motivational model of high school dropout. The model posits that teachers, parents, and the school administration's behaviors toward students influence students' perceptions of competence and autonomy. The less autonomy supportive the so ..."

Materials for an exploratory theory of the network society.

"... ABSTRACT This article aims at proposing some elements for a grounded theor y of the network society. The network society is the social structure characteristic of the Information Age, as tentatively identi ed by empirical, cross-cultural investigation. It permeates most societies in the world, in v ..."
