Es wurde ein System von 200.000 LOC auf OO-Maße hin analysiert und die Abhängigkeiten der Maße statistisch analysiert. Das System ist seit 2001 im Einsatz und wird auch zur Zeit noch (2007) evolutionär weiter entwickelt. Einige Befunde aus der neueren Literatur wurden bestätigt, einige präzisiert. Wartungsintensive Klassen lassen sich zuverlässig erkennen.

Recent results obtained by the CDF and D0 Collaborations on searches for Higgs bosons beyond the Standard Model at Run II of the Tevatron are discussed. The data, corresponding to integrated luminosities of up to 4.2 fb −1 , are compared to theoretical expectations. No significant excess of signal above the expected background is observed in any of the various final states examined, and so limi...

Motor asymmetry, defined as the lack of symmetry in movements or postures, is often observed briefly in many typically developing children. However, if such asymmetry persists, it may be a sign of neurological disease. Recent studies have suggested that motor asymmetries may be an early symptom of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). ASD involve a range of social, cognitive, and behavioral problems...

In the paper a formal content model for the financial services industry as an example of one of the most important eServices industries is presented. Generally, a financial services firm can provide its customers with a great variety and quantity of self-produced and externally bought content. However, the challenge is to offer information about the proper subject, at the appropriate sophistica...

Large software products are very difficult to understand. One way to cope with this problem is to provide tools generating different software’s views. Unfortunately, there are so many different entity types and relationships in a large software product that building a specific tool for each view is not cost effective. This paper presents GSEE, a Generic Software Exploration Environment. GSEE is...

Response styles constitute a formidable challenge for cross-cultural research. In this article, three different response styles are discussed (acquiescence, extremity scoring, and social desirability). Acquiescence responding (ARS) is then integrated into a larger classical test theoretical framework, which allows for an examination of the various roles that ARS may play in cross-cultural resea...

1. List the common causes of altered level of consciousness. 2. Discuss how to differentiate medical and structural causes of altered level of consciousness. 3. Develop a plan for the initial phase of evaluation for an altered level of consciousness. 4. Recognize the importance of radiologic imaging in a child who has an altered level of consciousness. 5. Know which ingestions are likely to cau...

In this paper, I will try to show that the idea that there can be consciousness without some form of attention, and high-level top-down attention without consciousness, originates from a failure to notice the varieties of forms that top-down attention and consciousness can assume. I will present evidence that: there are various forms of attention and consciousness; not all forms of attention pr...

Cerebral disorders are often associated with disturbance of consciousness. Since the latter could alter the prognosis of physical function, early improvement of consciousness level is important. The present study tested the hypothesis that sitting position improves disturbances of consciousness in patients with cerebral disorders. The subjects were 17 patients with cerebral disorders and distur...
