Sartorius (SART) and tensor fasciae latae (TFL) in the cat hindlimb are functionally heterogeneous muscles with regions that differ in their skeletal actions and electromyographic recruitment during normal activity. The topographical organization of motoneurons supplying different regions of SART or TFL has been investigated by exposing cut nerve branches supplying different peripheral territor...

In this paper we present an automatic translation of real-time system specifications captured with Structured Analysis with Real-Time extension (SART) into SystemC executable models. SART is proposed as a front-end language for rapid SystemC model development. A synthesizable model of real-time system is thus obtained allowing for real-time performance estimation and behavior debugging at task-...

This paper proposes a novel approach –SARTto the development of real-time systems which is based on super actors, i.e., actors whose behaviour is modelled by statecharts. SART borrows structural concepts from known methods for reactive systems like ROOM and UML-RT, and favours ease of construction by making actors reusable and composable software components. The distinguishing factors of SART a...

Simultaneous algebraic reconstruction technique (SART) [1, 2] is an iterative method for solving inverse problems of form Ax(+n) = b. This type of problems arises for example in computed tomography reconstruction, in which case A is obtained from discrete Radon transform. In this paper, we provide several methods for derivation of SART and connections between SART and other methods. Using these...

On the basis of the executive-attention theory of working memory capacity (WMC; e.g., M. J. Kane, A. R. A. Conway, D. Z. Hambrick, & R. W. Engle, 2007), the authors tested the relations among WMC, mind wandering, and goal neglect in a sustained attention to response task (SART; a go/no-go task). In 3 SART versions, making conceptual versus perceptual processing demands, subjects periodically in...

Anxiety can have positive effects on some aspects of cognition and negative effects on others. The current study investigated whether task-relevant anxiety could improve people's ability to withhold responses in a response inhibition task. Sixty-seven university students completed a modified and an unmodified version of the Sustained Attention to Response Task (SART; Robertson, Manly, Andrade, ...

Part I of this paper proposes a definition of the adaptive resonance theory (ART) class of constructive unsupervised on-line learning clustering networks. Class ART generalizes several well-known clustering models, e.g., ART 1, improved ART 1, adaptive Hamming net (AHN), and Fuzzy ART, which are optimized in terms of memory storage and/or computation time. Next, the symmetric Fuzzy ART (S-Fuzzy...
