Traditional software development process emphasises testing techniques, but show weakness in planning. However, it does not satisfy the requirement of the user to cause failure cost heavily. ISO 9001 Quality Management System, Capability Maturity Model (CMM) and Total Quality Management (TQM) are quality management technologies, which can be applied to the quality industry. In addition, Knowled...

In this paper, we first introduce Software Process Improvement (SPI) and Quality Function Deployment (QFD); then study theoretical model of SPI for CMM and CMMI based on QFD. Through the research, we hope to achieve three goals: first, to develop a method, based on QFD, for the integration and prioritization of requirements from multiple perspectives; second, to map process requirements, includ...

Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. (Cmm) is one of the phytopathogenic bacteria causing bacterial wilt disease and severe yield losses in tomatoes other solanaceous vegetables. Although there are some reports on Cmm infections eggplants (Solanum melongena), no information available resistance sources genetic control to this crop. We performed a search for eggplants, set 46 genotypes including lan...

The purpose of the study is to explore the concept of corporate memory management (CMM) and put forward an alternative perspective of how corporate memory (CM) can be understood, exploited and enriched. Based on a brief overview of the relevant literature on organizational memory studies (OMS), an initial CMM framework is proposed, which is then empirically explored and revised using the struct...

Objective. The aim of this study was to determine whether pregnancy increases the recurrence risk of cutaneous malignant melanoma (CMM) in women with a history of stage I CMM. Methods. The electronic medical databases of Medline and Embase were explored. All 1084 obtained articles were screened on title and abstract using predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria. A critical appraisal of r...

nowadays cmm machines are widely used in surface measurement and inspection. as inspection results from cmm machine are obtained by the means of measuring surfaces with direct contact, they are more precise than non-contact method (like optical measurement). however, cmm machines give more reliable and accurate results rather than non-contact methods but also these results come with error when ...

This paper presents a new modified Montgomery modular multiplication algorithm based on canonical signed-digit (CSD) representation, and sliding window method. In this modified Montgomery modular multiplication algorithm, signed-digit recoding technique is used in order to increase probability of the zero bits. Also sliding window method is used in order to reduce the multiplication steps consi...

We are developing an instrument, the Geometry Measuring Machine (GEMM), to measure the profile errors of aspheric and free form optical surfaces, with measurement uncertainties near 1 nm. Using GEMM, an optical profile is reconstructed from local curvatures of a surface, which are measured at points on the optic's surface. We will describe a prototype version of GEMM, its repeatability with tim...

BACKGROUND Two genes have been implicated in the development of cutaneous malignant melanoma (CMM). CDK4 (the gene encoding cyclin-dependent kinase 4, an oncogene) has exhibited germline mutations found in only three melanoma-prone families to date. CDKN2A is a tumor suppressor gene that encodes p16 (which inhibits activity of the cyclin D1-CDK4 complex) with germline mutations detected in 10%-...

Congenital malignant melanoma (CMM) is a rare condition that is defined as malignant melanoma recognized at birth. CMM may develop in utero in one of three ways: (1) transmission by metastasis through the placenta from a mother with melanoma; (2) primary melanoma arising within a giant congenital melanocytic naevus (GCMN); (3) primary de novo cutaneous CMM arising in utero. CMM can be confused ...
