Inter-iteration dependences in loops can hinder loop-level parallelism. For some loops, existing thread-level speculation (TLS) techniques fail to expose their inherent loop-level parallelism, because some inter-iteration dependences are too costly to synchronize, predict, pre-compute and isolate. This paper presents a compiler technique called loop recreation to change the nature of some depen...

The authors develop a contingent trip model to estimate the recreation demand for and value of a potential rail-trail site in north-east Georgia. The contingent trip model is an alternative to travel cost modelling useful for ex ante evaluation of proposed recreation resources or management alternatives. The authors estimate the empirical demand for trips using a negative binomial regression sp...

Water quality objectives for body contact recreation (REC-1) in Newport Bay, CA are not being attained. To evaluate the health implications of this non-attainment, a comprehensive health-based investigation was designed and implemented. Bacterial indicator data indicate that exceedances of the water quality objectives are temporally sporadic, geographically limited and most commonly occur durin...

This study examines the cross-sectional associations between personal and perceived neighborhood environment attributes regarding walking for recreation and transportation among older Taiwanese adults. Data related to personal factors, perceived environmental factors, and time spent engaging in transportation-related and recreational walking were obtained from 1032 older adults aged 65 years an...

Recreation of flight trajectory is important among research areas. The design of a flight trajectory recreation and playback system is presented in this paper. Rather than transferring the flight data to diagram, graph and table, flight data is visualized on the 3D global of ossimPlanet. ossimPlanet is an open-source 3D global geo-spatial viewer and the system realization is based on analysis i...

In the last decade the demand for rural recreation has increased in Ireland as the population has become increasingly urbanised. Increased affluence, mobility and changing values have also brought new demands with respect to landscape, conservation, heritage and recreation, with a greater emphasis on consumption demands for goods and services in rural areas. This paper’s contribution to the und...

Health and human services are gradually moving from a medical, deficitsbased model of practice toward an orientation that emphasizes participant strengths and capacities. This article presents theories relevant to therapeutic recreation that reflect this shift toward accentuating strengths. The theories are presented in two categories: (a) theories that support well-being within the individual ...

Spinal injuries and spinal cord injuries in sports and recreation represent frequent and important causes of injury and disability. These injuries are virtually all preventable through strict adherence to the codes of conduct of the rules and regulations for sports and recreation and through an attitude of respect for one's own welfare and the welfare of the opponents or other participants. Adh...
