Breeding for QPM ear rot resistant cultivars could offer a reliable environmental and economic control of mycotoxins especially for the resource-poor communities that require inexpensive protein diets. This research aims at evaluating a testcross of QPM inbreds with ear rot resistant cultivars to develop resistant topcrosses with high grain protein quality and yield. Seven QPM inbreds (lines) a...

The design of a microcontroller based pacemaker tester is presented in this paper. Both invasive and noninvasive (transthoracic) pacemakers can be tested using this device. Two test loads are provided; a 500 ohms load for testing invasive pacemakers and a 50 ohms load for testing non-invasive pacemakers. A two line LCD display is used to indicate the test parameters, test results and the test i...

This report presents additional, normative data for the Response Analysis Tester (RATER), a performance testing instrument, using geometric forms as stimuli. The results showed that somewhat higher scores were obtained with the geometric form stimuli than had been previously obtained using color stimuli. Examination of RATER scores as related to the Navy Basic Test Battery showed the only signi...

We are investigating on-line model-based test generation from non-deterministic output-observable Input/Output Extended Finite State Machine (I/O EFSM) models of Systems Under Test (SUTs). We propose a novel constraint-based heuristic approach (Heuristic Reactive Planning Tester (χRPT)) for on-line conformance testing non-deterministic SUTs. An indicative feature of χRPT is the capability of ma...
