A diagram is the artifact used to show a graphical view of one or more elements of a model. Sometime designer whish to have slightly different views of the same model element: to show variation points, to explore alternatives, to highlight some details, to add stereotypes or comments ... In actual tools, each view is shown in its own diagram, realized by copying a based diagram and adding the m...

The field of diagram recognition faces many challenges, including the great diversity in diagrammatic notations, and the presence of noise and ambiguity during the recognition process. To help address these problems, research is needed into methods for acquiring, representing, and exploiting notational conventions. We review several frameworks for diagram recognition: blackboard systems, schema...

Euler diagrams are a natural method of representing set-theoretic data and have been employed in diverse areas such as visualizing statistical data, as a basis for diagrammatic logics and for displaying the results of database search queries. For effective use of Euler diagrams in practical computer based applications, the generation of a diagram as a set of curves from an abstract description ...

This paper outlines the ongoing work on the realization of a flexible inheritance mechanism for Activity Diagrams that assures the maintenance of syntactical correctness for the derived Activity Diagrams. The objective is to support the reuse of process models especially by applying Activity Diagram inheritance as a variability mechanism in the context of product line oriented software developm...

What is a UML sequence diagram? UML sequence diagrams are used to represent or model the flow of messages, events and actions between the objects or components of a system. Time is represented in the vertical direction showing the sequence of interactions of the header elements, which are displayed horizontally at the top of the diagram. Sequence Diagrams are used primarily to design, document ...

The phase diagram for LixFePO4 has been determined for different lithium concentrations and temperatures. The two lowtemperature phases, heterosite and triphylite, have previously been shown to transform to a disordered solid solution at elevated temperatures. This disordered phase allows for a continuous transition between the heterosite and triphylite phases and is stable at relatively low te...

In this paper we propose a new approach to plane partitioning with similar features to those of Polar Diagram, but we assume that the pole is close to the sites. The result is a new tessellation of the plane in regions called Near Pole Polar Diagram NPPD. Here we define the (NPPD) of points, the dual and the Contracted dual of it, present an optimal algorithms to draw them and discuss the appli...

a topical preparation containing aceclofenac was developed using an o/w microemulsion system. isopropyl myristate was chosen as the oil phase as it showed a good solubilising capacity. pseudo-ternary phase diagrams were used to obtain the concentration ranges of the oil, surfactant (labrasol) and co-surfactant (plurol oleique) for microemulsion formation. five different formulations were formul...
