Treatment of industrial waste water (e.g. textile waste water, phenol waste water, pharmaceutical etc) faces limitation in conventional treatment procedures. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) do not suffer from the limits of conventional treatment processes and consequently degrade toxic pollutants more efficiently. Complexity is faced in eradicating the restrictions of AOPs such as sludge fo...

Organization of existing and emerging toxicological knowledge into adverse outcome pathway (AOP) descriptions can facilitate greater application of mechanistic data, including those derived through high-throughput in vitro, high content omics and imaging, and biomarker approaches, in risk-based decision making. The previously ad hoc process of AOP development is being formalized through develop...

Often declared dead or at least dying, C/C++ is still the lingua franca of many application domains. Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) is a programming paradigm that supports the modular implementation of crosscutting concerns. Thereby, AOP improves the maintainability, reusability, and configurability of software in general. Although already popular in the Java domain, AOP is still not commonl...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Occlusion of the AOP results in a characteristic pattern of ischemia: bilateral paramedian thalamus with or without midbrain involvement. Although the classic imaging findings are often recognized, only a few small case series and isolated cases of AOP infarction have been reported. The purpose of this study was to characterize the complete imaging spectrum of AOP infarct...

Cells at the tips of budding branches in the Drosophila tracheal system generate two morphologically different types of seamless tubes. Terminal cells (TCs) form branched lumenized extensions that mediate gas exchange at target tissues, whereas fusion cells (FCs) form ring-like connections between adjacent tracheal metameres. Each tracheal branch contains a specific set of TCs, FCs, or both, bu...

OBJECTIVES To assess whether measurement of the angle of progression (AOP) before induction of labor (IOL) can predict successful vaginal delivery in nulliparous women. METHODS This was a prospective, observational study of nulliparous women with a singleton term pregnancy and an indication for IOL. Transperineal sonography was used to measure the AOP before cervical ripening. Since all women...

This Project was performed to provide an in vitro Point of Departure (PoD) for Adverse Outcome Pathway (AOP)-informed Integrated Approach Testing and Assessment (IATA), concerning a potential risk parkinsonian motor deficits after long-term exposure Tebufenpyrad. The AOP considered AOP:3. Assays were Key Event (KE) 1, KE2 (mitochondrial dysfunction) KE4 the AOP, based on use human dopaminergic ...

This paper describes our experience in using Aspect Oriented Programming to greatly ease maintenance and evolution tasks in industrial software evolution. We have discovered that AOP can be effectively used to add unpluggable features to an existing code base. AOP has allowed us to place code related to certain features into separate modules, which eases evolution when requirements change. Furt...

Research into the design methodologies for agent-oriented programming (AOP) is still in its infancy, with most of the work focused towards applying the well-known object-oriented concepts. Integration of inheritance into AOP seems a natural step in that direction. This paper addresses the notion of inheritance in AOP.We identify and formally de ne two problems which signi cantly reduce the usef...

Abstract— In this paper we show that Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) can be safely supported by ComponentOriented Programming (COP) by providing a way to control the openness of a component with regards to AOP techniques. Our proposal reconciles the intrusive nature of AOP with the ”black box property” of components in COP. We build a compromise between modularity and openness applying the op...
