Effective static analyses of heap-manipulating programs need to track precise information about the heap structures and the values computed by the program. Most existing heap analyses rely on manual annotations to precisely analyze general and, in particular, recursive, heap structures. Moreover, they either do not exploit value information to obtain more precise heap information or require mor...

Three mathematical models (mixed side-pore and profile side-pore diffusion with uniform or distributed pore length) are derived in dimensionless form to simulate the transport of solutes through the flowing channels and the stagnant pores of an unsaturated heap. Model parameters are determined from experimental tracer residence time distributions using the least square minimization approach. It...

Bacterial leaching is the extraction of metals from their ores using microorganisms. The most important player in the bioleaching process is. 4 Bacterial Attachment on Mineral Surfaces 200. 5 Microbial Diversity in Bioleaching Environments 200. Minerals are obtained using a leaching process.greater understanding of the mechanism of bacterial leaching of sulphide minerals. This latter process wh...

Dynamic memory management in C++ is complex, especially across the boundaries of library abstract data types. C++ libraries designed in the orthodox canonical form (OCF) alleviate some of the problems by ensuring that classes which manage any kind of heap structures faithfully copy and delete these. However, in certain common circumstances, OCF heap structures are wastefully copied multiple tim...
