Here we compare the codes CoCoA+ and Birds. CoCoA+ is the code released by the authors of Ma et al. (2015) implementing their algorithm in Apache Spark. As indicated in Ma et al. (2015), it is available in http:// github.com/gingsmith/cocoa/. Birds is the code released by the author of Yang (2013) implementing their practical variant of DisDCA proposed in that work using C++ and MPI. It is avai...

A good compiler which implements many optimizations during its compilation phases must be able to perform several static analysis techniques such as control flow or data flow analysis. Besides compilers, these techniques are common for static analyzers as well to retrieve information from source code, for example for code auditing, quality assurance or testing purposes. Implementing control flo...

Code generation is an important tool in model-driven engineering. It eases the transition between designing models and implementing systems in code. This project aims to make code generation a web service, adding a layer of abstraction between the user’s models and the generator used to produce their code.

AIMS To develop an approach for monitoring national alcohol marketing policies globally, an area of the World Health Organization's (WHO) Global Alcohol Strategy. METHODS Data on restrictiveness of alcohol marketing policies came from the 2002 and 2008 WHO Global Surveys on Alcohol and Health. We included four scales in a sensitivity analysis to determine optimal weights to score countries on...
