Many companies are using model-based techniques to offer a competitive advantage in an increasingly globalised systems development industry. Central to model-based development is the concept of models as the basis from which systems are generated, tested and maintained. The availability of high-quality tools, and the ability to adopt and adapt them to the company practice, are important qualiti...

Critical conditions for the onset of fast interchange dynamics in the stressed geotail during the growth phase of the substorm are derived. We compare the ideal MHD interchange stability conditions (Hurricane, 1997) with kinetically modified interchange– ballooning motions. It is shown that fast interchange growth is possible only in the near–Earth boundary of the plasma sheet where the local p...

We present the C-STAR Italian Generator (XIG), a system for generating Italian text from the interlingua content representation (Interchange Format) adopted within the C-STAR II speech to speech translation project. The constraints of the application scenario led us to develop a generator based on Mixed Representations, providing a good trade-oo between exibility and eeciency.

In order to improve the safety of exit expressway interchanges main problems and influencing factors interchange exits are analyzed according number traffic accidents at in China. Some suggestions countermeasures then put forward from aspect technology for future reference.

Interchange formats have been the backbone of the EDA industry for several years. They are used as a way of helping the development of design flows that integrate foreign tools using formats with different syntax and, more importantly, different semantics. The need for integrating tools coming from different communities is even more severe for hybrid systems because of the relative immaturity o...
