Integrating Omic Technologies into Aquatic Ecological Risk Assessment and Environmental Monitoring: Hurdles, Achievements, and Future Outlook

BACKGROUND In this commentary we present the findings from an international consortium on fish toxicogenomics sponsored by the U.K. Natural Environment Research Council (Fish Toxicogenomics-Moving into Regulation and Monitoring, held 21-23 April 2008 at the Pacific Environmental Science Centre, Vancouver, BC, Canada). OBJECTIVES The consortium from government agencies, academia, and industry ...

Integrating Soil Ecological Knowledge into Restoration Management

The variability in the type of ecosystem degradation and the specificity of restoration goals can challenge restorationists’ ability to generalize about approaches that lead to restoration success. The discipline of soil ecology, which emphasizes both soil organisms and ecosystem processes, has generated a body of knowledge that can be generally useful in improving the outcomes of restoration d...

Integrating Software Behavior into Dynamic Probabilistic Risk Assessment

Title: INTEGRATING SOFTWARE BEHAVIOR INTO DYNAMIC PROBABILISTIC RISK ASSESSMENT Dongfeng Zhu, Doctor of Philosophy 2005 Directed By: Associate Professor Carol Smidts, Professor Ali Mosleh Department of Mechanical Engineering Software plays an increasingly important role in modern safety-critical systems. Although research has been done to integrate software into the classical Probability Risk A...

Integrating Feature Modeling into UML

Feature modeling is an important approach to dealing with variability at an abstract level in a hierarchical manner extensively used in software product lines. For its use in conjunction with other UML models and MDA approach, it is important to correctly integrate feature modeling into UML. In this paper, we present an approach to integrating feature modeling into UML that respects abstractnes...
