Asians may have better survival after non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) than non-Asians. However, it is unknown whether survival varies among the heterogeneous U.S. Asian/Pacific Islander (API) populations. Therefore, this study aimed to quantify survival differences among APIs with NSCLC. Differences in overall and disease-specific survival were analyzed in the California Cancer Registry amon...

In modern receiver control applications achieving real time response is most important. The paper is a part of software development for CSM controller system. In this paper a real time application, for controlling SCAN/DF receiver simulator will be implemented using POSIX socket APIs on VxWorks RTOS and process the data from the Scan/DF receiver subsystem. The processed data can be used to deve...

Developer forums contain opinions and information related to the usage of APIs. API names in forum posts are often not explicitly linked to their official resources. Automatic linking of an API mention to its official resources can be challenging for various reasons, such as, name overloading. We present a technique, ANACE, to automatically resolve API mentions in the textual contents of forum ...

The molecular states of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) in pharmaceutical dosage forms strongly affect the properties and quality of a drug. Various important fundamental physicochemical studies were reviewed from the standpoint of molecular pharmaceutics. Mechanochemical effects were evaluated in mixtures of APIs and pharmaceutical additives. Amorphization, complex formation and nanop...

The objective of new service modeling approaches introduced by recent work on linked services is to integrate Linked Data and service APIs. Building these models is time consuming and difficult, which is an obstacle preventing wide adoption of these modeling approaches. We introduce an approach to semi-automatically build semantic models of the Web APIs by using examples of input values. We use...

O artigo discute questões conceituais e metodológicas a serem enfrentadas por pesquisas empíricas baseadas em dados obtidos através de Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) plataformas online. Em diálogo com os Estudos Plataforma, métodos digitais outras abordagens ancoradas nos estudos ciência tecnologia (STS), o volta-se para relação entre as políticas das APIs dimensões como affordances,...

In this paper we discuss progress in the development of Application Program Interfaces (APIs) and mechanisms which provide a comprehensive set of security services to application developers. The APIs, though similar, are designed for distinct environments: the session API (“GSS”) is aimed at the on-line real-time messaging environment; the store-and-forward API (“IDUP”) is particularly suited t...

Building Web APIs on top of SPARQL endpoints is becoming a common practice to enable universal access to the integration favorable dataspace of Linked Data. However, the Linked Data community cannot expect users to learn SPARQL to query this dataspace, and Web APIs are the most common way of enabling programmatic access to data on the Web. However, the implementation of Web APIs around Linked D...

Web-services with REST APIs comprise the majority of the programmable web. To access these APIs more safely and conveniently, language specific client libraries can hide REST details behind regular programming language idioms. Manually building such libraries is straightforward, but tedious and error prone. Fortunately, model-based development provides different methods to automate their develo...
