Functional requirements for information systems can be modeled through use cases. Furthermore, use case models have been successfully used in broader contexts than software engineering, as systems engineering. Even if small systems may be modeled as a set of use cases, when large systems requirements are modeled with a plain use case model several difficulties arise. Traditionally, the behavior...

This paper considers the quasi-random rumor spreading model introduced by Doerr, Friedrich, and Sauerwald in [SODA 2008], hereafter referred to as the list-based model. Each node is provided with a cyclic list of all its neighbors, chooses a random position in its list, and from then on calls its neighbors in the order of the list. This model is known to perform asymptotically at least as well ...

OBJECTIVE Anorexia Nervosa (AN) is associated with excessive self-control. This iterative case series describes the augmentation of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) for outpatient adult AN with skills addressing emotional and behavioral overcontrol. An overly controlled style is theorized to develop from the transaction between an individual with heightened threat sensitivity and reduced rewa...

In this study, the authors reported a case of woman with severe compulsion who became pregnant during the Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation. We carried out Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and behavior therapy simultaneously after repeated medications' refraction. The patient received 20 sessions 1 Hz Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation in right dorsolateral pref...

The development of high-level behavior for autonomous robots is a time-consuming task even for experts. This paper presents a ComputerAided Software Engineering (CASE) tool, named Kouretes Statechart Editor (KSE), which enables the developer to easily specify a desired robot behavior as a statechart model utilizing a variety of base robot functionalities (vision, localization, locomotion, motio...

ameloblastomas are regarded as a homogeneous group of neoplasms with locally invasive character. they generally do not show induction of dental hard tissue formation except in few cases. biological behavior and histogenesis of these tumors is still unexplored as there is lack of relevant studies and long follow-up of these patients. so, we aimed to report this rare case of dentinoameloblastoma ...
