This paper describes an ongoing eeort to verify the cache coherence protocol of the IEEE/ANSI Standard for Scalable Coherent Interface using the Mur' veriication system. A model of the typical set protocol was constructed in the Mur' description language. This model was augmented with a speciication of properties necessary for cache coherence. The Mur' veriication system automatically checks if...

We investigate the neutral Higgs sector of the minimal supersymmetric standard model in explicit CP violation scenario. Within the context of the effective potential formalism, the masses of the neutral Higgs bosons at the one-loop level are calculated by taking into account the contributions of the following loops of ordinary particles and superpartners: top quark, the scalar top quarks, botto...

Studies investigating the development of tense/aspect in children with developmental disorders have focused on production frequency and/or relied on short spontaneous speech samples. How children with developmental disorders use future forms/constructions is also unknown. The current study expands this literature by examining frequency, consistency, and productivity of past, present, and future...

Knowledge of typical phonological development in bilingual children is limited. Bilingual children are often compared to their monolingual peers to determine typical from disordered development; however, it is not known if this comparison is an appropriate one. Although there have been some studies examining accuracy of production in bilinguals (GildersleeveNeumann, Kester, Davis, & Peña, 2008;...

BACKGROUND Phonological working memory and typical language development in children. AIM To describe and discuss findings of researches concerning the assessment of phonological working memory in normally developing children undertaken since the 1980's. AIM To present a systematic literature review regarding the phonological working memory and its relationship with normal language developme...

Katie M. Belardi: The Nature and Nurture of Canonical Babbling in Neurodevelopmental Disorders (Under the direction of Linda R. Watson) An infant's language develops significantly during the first year of life. Language development is facilitated by an interaction between genetics and environment. Measures of vocalization development, such as canonical babbling and volubility, and the language ...

speech delay with an unknown cause is a problem among children. this diagnosis is the last differential diagnosis after observing normal findings in routine hearing tests. the present study was undertaken to determine whether auditory brainstem responses to click stimuli are different between normally developing children and children suffering from delayed speech with unknown causes. in this cr...

During the analysis phase of information systems development, systems analysts capture and represent systems requirements using conceptual models (such as entity-relationship diagrams, class diagrams, and use case diagrams). Considering the fact that the reported failures of a significant percentage of developed systems are linked to faulty requirements, it is extremely important for these anal...
