U-Pb analyses of zircon from ten samples of augen gneisses, eight mafic and intermediate metaigneous rocks and six metasediments from some tectonic domains along the Calabria-Peloritani Terrane (Southern Italy) contribute to knowledge of peri-Gondwanan evolution from Late-Proterozoic to Paleozoic times. All samples were equilibrated under amphibolite to granulite facies metamorphism during the ...

a r t i c l e i n f o a b s t r a c t Abstract interpretation Program semantics Metamorphic malware detection Self-modifying programs Metamorphic code includes self-modifying semantics-preserving transformations to exploit code diversification. The impact of metamorphism is growing in security and code protection technologies, both for preventing malicious host attacks, e.g., in software divers...

The Ronda peridotite (Betic Cordillera, Southern Spain) is the largest alpine-type massif worldwide. Yet, emplacement mechanism of these mantle rocks still a highly debated topic. In this study, we aim at better constraining their context exhumation by focusing on Nieves Unit, which mostly composed Mesozoic metasediments displaying HT metamorphism and deformation along contact with peridotite. ...

This paper presents a formalisation of the different existing code mutation techniques (polymorphism and metamorphism) by means of formal grammars. While very few theoretical results are known about the detection complexity of viral mutation techniques, we exhaustively address this critical issue by considering the Chomsky classification of formal grammars. This enables us to determine which fa...

Introduction: The source and duration of the heating event responsible for eucrite metamorphism is not well constrained. Three hypotheses have been proposed for the source of heat: Impact, conduction from the mantle, and rapid production of successive flows [1]. Textural and chemical relationships of noncumulate eucrites are investigated to constrain the thermal and temporal conditions responsi...

Large earthquakes occur in rocks undergoing high-pressure/low-temperature metamorphism during subduction. Rhythmic major-element zoning in garnet is a common product of such metamorphism, and one that must record a fundamental subduction process. We argue that rhythmic major-element zoning in subduction zone garnets from the Franciscan Complex, California, developed in response to growth-dissol...
