Cone Beam Computerized Tomography (CBCT) enables threedimensional imaging with isotropic resolution. X-ray scatter management is a challenging task for quantitative CBCT imaging : scattered radiation level is significantly high on cone beam systems compared to collimated fan beam systems. The effects of this scattered radiation are cupping artifacts, streaks, and quantification inaccuracies. At...

Co-processing an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) with a low Tg excipient has been previously reported to be an effective strategy for preventing drug amorphisation on milling. This technique relies on the ability of the excipient to form a molecular dispersion with the amorphous API during the milling process. The presence of the excipient within the amorphous phase induces a reduction o...

With the advent of both HTML5 and the Web Audio API (a high-level JavaScript API for audio processing and synthesis) interesting audio applications can now be developed for the Web. The Web Audio API offers a set of fast predefined audio nodes as well as customizable ScriptProcessor node, allowing developers to add their own javascript audio processing code. Several projects are developing abst...

Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) has altered the way programmers develop applications. Instead of using standalone libraries, programmers today often incorporate curated web services, accessed via well-defined interfaces (APIs), as modules in their applications. Web APIs, however, evolve rapidly, making it critical for developers to be able to compare APIs for similarity and estimate the wor...

This paper presents an approach to integrate interactive real-time 3D graphics into the scripting language Tcl. 3D graphics libraries are typically implemented in system programming languages such as C or C++ in order to be type safe and fast. We have developed a technique that analyzes the C++ application programming interface of such a library and maps it to appropriate scripting commands and...

The rise of component-based software development has created a need for API documentation. Experience has shown that it is hard to create and maintain precise and readable documentation. Prose documentation can provide a good overview but lacks precision. Formal methods ooer precision but the resulting documentation is expensive to write and modify. Worse, few developers have the skill or incli...

Model checking suffers not only from the state-space explosion problem, but also from the environment modeling problem: how can one create an accurate enough model of the environment to enable precise yet efficient model checking? We present a novel approach to the automatic creation of environment models via training. The idea of training is to take several programs that use a common API and a...
