In an experiment stylistic choices in the new Dutch Bible translation were evaluated. 185 participants evaluated 4 fragments which differed type of variation (lexical or syntactic), source fragment (Bible - classical text) and way variations applied (single mixed). Also religious¬ness evaluator was taken into account. Examined is whether lexical modernization syntactic simplification are same, ...

We present a simple but eeective method for constructing eecient attribute evaluators for the class of l-ordered attribute grammars that run on tightly-coupled (shared-memory) multi-processor machines. We also give an account of how we implemented this method in practice. Lastly, we give some gures drawn from realistic experiments, i.e. actual implementation of parallel evaluators for meaningfu...

A partial evaluator for Prolog takes a program and a query and returns a program specialized for all instances of that query. The intention is that the generated program will execute more efficiently than the original one for those instances. This thesis presents “Mixtus”, an automatic partial evaluator for full Prolog, i.e. including non-logical features such as cut, assert, var, write etc. Mi...

There is an increasing need for practical and comprehensive evaluation methods and tools for conformance testing with ISO standards. In this study, we focus on ISO 9241 which is an important ergonomic standard. A brief description shows its content and structure. Practical evaluations include the amount of time and resources which must be managed in software projects, while comprehensive evalua...

The debugging of lazy functional programs is a non yet satisfactorily solved problem. In recent years there have been several proposals for incorporating execution traces to lazy functional languages. In [CRW00], an extensive comparison of three of these systems can be found, namely Freja [NS97,Nil98], the Redex Trail System (RTS) [SR97a,SR97b] and Hood [Gil00]. They have been incorporated to d...

This paper contains a brief discussion of an object evaluator which is based on principles of evaluations in a category. The main tool system referred as the Application Development Environment (ADE) is used to build database applications involving the graphical user interface (GUI). The separation of a database access and the user interface is reached by distinguishing the potential and actual...

Extensibility and high query performance are important requirement of advanced large scale information systems since complex data analysis often requires the use of application-speci c operations that have to be introduced by the user issuing the query. One of the decisions to make when parallelizing a query execution plan is to determine how input data streams to evaluators implementing logica...
