This thesis discusses the problems of the conventional ISO 9646 methodology for OSI conformance testing, and proposes a new methodology based on trace analysis. In the proposed methodology, a trace analyzer is used to determine whether the observed behavior of the implementation under test is valid or invalid. This simplifies test cases dramatically, since they now need only specify the expecte...

introduction: purpose of this study was the effect of different music rhythms (fast rhythm and slow rhythm) in physiological responses of health young male after an exhaustive exercise session during primary minutes of recovery period. methods: seventeen healthy male (ages: 19.76 ± 0.97 yr, height: 176 ± 6.72 cm, weight: 68.5 ±7 5.95 kg), voluntarily performed bruce protocol until exhaustion wi...

This report surveys the method, volume, protocol, criteria for a positive test, and complications of 518,448 exercise stress tests at 1,375 centers. Exercise test capacity was estimated at 2,147,450. An even distribution of bicycle, Master and treadmill testing was seen by regions within the country. The majority were using the Bruce protocol. The S-T segment depression of .5 mm was considered ...

The purpose of this study was to determine differences in VO2max and metabolic variables between treadmill running and treadmill skating. This study also examined VO2max responses during a continuous skating treadmill protocol and a discontinuous skating treadmill protocol. Sixteen male high school hockey players, who had a mean age of 16 +/- 1 years and were of an above-average fitness level, ...

Problem Statement. Everyone will agree that a key issue in the design of multi-GHz interface devices is jitter performance. To characterize jitter performance, do you measure timing jitter or period jitter of the device? Should the Bit Error Rate performance of the device also be tested? Is there any way to shorten the overall test time? And as always, is there a way to reduce the test cost? Fu...

Background & Aims: In large populations, the level of cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) can be evaluated by estimating non-exercise models with the least amount of time and money. In this study, we present non-exercise equations for predicting CRF and also investigate the effect of socio-environmental factors on it. Materials & Methods: 2490 male and female subjects aged 25-65 years old from dif...

purpose to measure the time needed to teach a series of martial arts techniques to proficiency. methods fifteen volunteer subjects without any prior martial arts or self-defense experience were recruited. a panel of martial arts experts selected 21 different techniques including defensive stances, arm blocks, elbow strikes, palm strikes, thumbs to eyes, instep kicks and a carotid neck restraint...
