A Pragmatic Approach

When analyzing a program via an abstract interpretation framework we would like to analyze the program in a context-sensitive interprocedural manner. Analyzing the program in a manner that considers interprocedural flow can lead to much more accurate results than local or context-insensitive analyses. However, the computational cost (both time and memory consumption) associated with context-sen...

A Pragmatic Approach to Conflict

This paper proposes an alternative approach to that of considering conflict as a foremost problem to be solved in a system made up of multiple entities, by suggesting to integrate it without necessarily running a serious risk. This position is supported by preliminary experimental results and by inter-disciplinary research reviews.

Functional dyspepsia: a pragmatic approach.

Functional dyspepsia includes one or more of four cardinal symptoms: postprandial fullness, early satiety, pain or burning in the epigastrum. According to the Rome III diagnostic criteria for functional dyspepsia, these symptoms must be present for the last 3 months with symptom onset at least 6 months prior to diagnosis. Functional dyspepsia is not the result of an underlying structural abnorm...
