The formal-CAFE methodology and model checking patterns in the specification of e-commerce systems

Electronic commerce is an important application that has evolved significantly recently. However, electronic commerce systems are complex and difficult to be correctly designed. Guaranteeing the correctness of an e-commerce system is not an easy task due to the great amount of scenarios where errors occur, many of them very subtle. In this work we presents a methodology that uses formal-method techniques, specifically symbolic model checking, to design electronic commerce applications and to automatically verify them. Also, a model checking pattern hierarchy has been developed—it specifies patterns to construct and verify the formal model of e-commerce systems. We consider this research the first step to the development of a framework, which will integrate the methodology, an e-commerce specification language based on business rules, and a model checker.

Tradeoffs in granularity and parallelization for a Monte Carlo shower simulation code

The EGS4 code, developed at Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, simulates electron-photon cascading phenomena. The original code is inherently sequential: processing one particle at a time. This paper reports on a series of experiments in parallelizing different versions of EGS4. Our parallel experiments were run on a 30-processor Sequent Balance B21 and a 6-processor Symmetry S27. We have considered the following approaches for parallel execution of this application code:

1. (1) Original sequential version modified for parallel processing: 1 processor;

2. (2) Version 1 run multiprocessed: 1 to 29 processors;

3. (3) Sequential version modified for large-grain parallel processing: 1 procssor;

4. (4) Version 3 run using the Sequent Microtasking Library: 1 to 29 processors.

For each approach, we discuss the relative advantages and disadvantages in the areas of coding effort, understandability and portability, as well as performance, and outline a new parallelization approach we are currently pursuing based on Large-Grain Data Flow techniques.     

用有限元确定起重机裂纹补强板的参数

采用ANSYS有限元分析软件，对因出现裂纹的起重机主梁而添加的补强板进行系列计算，得出修补后主梁裂纹的应力及应力强度因子的变化规律。结果表明，采用参数适当的补强板，可降低起重机主梁裂纹尖端的应力，从而保证起重机的安全。     

MAXIMUM ENTROPY DECONVOLUTION OF XPS PEAK

Necessity of XPS spectrum,deconvolution,disadvantages of the traditional Fast Fourier Tranderm decon-volution method(FFT),princtple,method and advantage ofMaximum Entropy Deconvolution Method (MEM) are de-scribed.Criteria for determing the number of data points sam-pled in MEM are the main point disccussed in the paper,someXPS deconvolution applications of our MEM software showthat the MEM makes XPS deconvolution much easier than thetraditional FFT method.
