Object identity plays a key role in object-oriented systems, including deductive and object-oriented databases (DOODs). We revisit various discussions about it, propose some criteria to represent object identity, and focus mainly on the characteristics in QUIXOT E , which is a knowledge representation language developed by ICOT and can be considered as one of DOOD languages. In QUIXOT E , objec...

For many years the FORTRAN H Extended compiler has produced highly optimized object programs f o r IBM System1360 and System1370 computers. A study of the object programs revealed, however, that important additional optimizations were possible, and the compiler has been enhanced accordingly. First, the range of cases handled by the optimization techniques already present in the compiler has bee...

The quark-delocalization, color-screening model (QDCSM), extended by inclusion of a one-pion-exchange (OPE) tail, is applied to the study of the deuteron and the d dibaryon. The results show that the properties of the deuteron (an extended object) are well reproduced, greatly improving the agreement with experimental data as compared to our previous study (without OPE). At the same time, the ma...

The working region of a camera providing visual feedback to guide manipulation tasks can be greatly extended if the camera can move in real-time. Proper camera motion depends on several different criteria, such as object motion, maximum manipulator tracking speed, manipulator configuration, camera depth-of-field, field-of-view, spatial resolution, occlusion avoidance, etc. In this paper, the co...

Recently, an extended operator of fractional derivative related to a generalized Beta function was used in order to obtain some generating relations involving the extended hypergeometric functions [1]. The main object of this paper is to present a further generalization of the extended fractional derivative operator and apply the generalized extended fractional derivative operator to derive lin...

The paper describes the implementation of the Kalman filter for control of object moving in the plane. The object is described through system of non-linear equations. The system is put under a feedback linearization in the case that managing influences are constants during the period of discretization. As result is obtained an extended Kalman filter that increases the precision of the object ma...

We present the object-oriented multi-tier application framework OMS Java which is independent of the underlying database management system (DBMS). We detail the storage management component and sketch which part of the framework has to be extended when introducing a new DBMS. We compare versions of OMS Java using the persistent storage engine ObjectStore PSE Pro for Java, the object-oriented DB...

Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) can provide accurate object classification. They can be extended to perform object detection by iterating over dense or selected proposed object regions. However, the runtime of such detectors scales as the total number and/or area of regions to examine per image, and training such detectors may be prohibitively slow. However, for some CNN classifier topolog...

We investigate a rst-order extension of the Theory of Primitive Objects of 5] that supports method extension in presence of object subsumption. Extension is the ability of modifying the behavior of an object by adding new methods (and inheriting the existing ones). Object subsumption allows to use objects with a bigger interface in a context expecting another object with a smaller interface. Th...

The most popular development methodologies in the last decade are based on object-oriented techniques. The goal of this paper is to investigate the possibilities of extending the object-oriented methodology of information systems development with a service-oriented approach and to examine the benefits of this extension. We propose an augmentation to an object-oriented methodology known as BORM ...
