To translate and culturally adapt the Patient Observer Scar Assessment Scale, POSAS, to Norwegian explore its test-retest, intra- inter-tester reliability. POSAS was translated into following international guidelines in collaboration with an translation bureau. Twenty-six adults 24 children were recruited from a burns outpatient clinic. Three observer-categories: doctor, nurse physiotherapist, ...

This paper presents a new technique for testing the performance of off chip drivers (OCDs). It is based on the use of periodic signals and a demodulation based analysis in the frequency domain The technique is particular useful for replacing expensive time domain tests of OCD performance by simpler and less expensive phase shift measurements in the frequency domain. Such tests can easily be per...

We present a design for a low-cost, functional VLSI chip tester. It is based on the Apple Macintosh II personal computer. It tests chips that have up to 128 pins. All pin drivers of the tester are bidirectional; each pin is programmed independently as an input or an output. The tester can test both static and dynamic chips. Rudimentary speed testing is provided. Chips are tested by executing C ...

This paper presents a custom bit error rate (BER) tester implementation in an Altera Stratix II GX signal integrity development kit. This BER tester deploys a parallel to serial pseudo random bit sequence (PRBS) generator, a bit and link status error detector and an error logging FIFO. The auto-correlation pattern enables receiver synchronization without specifying protocol at the physical laye...

brassica juncea l. is an important oilseed crop which occupies premier position in indian agriculture. developing high yielding genotypes has been a major breeding objective in indian mustard. present study was conducted at directorate of rapeseed-mustard research, india, during 2010-2013 to determine general combining ability (gca) and specific combining ability (sca) of parental lines and bet...
