This report includes information concerning experimental use of unregistered pesticides or unregistered uses of pesticides. Experimental results should not be interpreted as recommendations for use. Use of unregistered materials or use of any registered pesticides inconsistent with its label is against both Federal Law and State Law.
A database to be used by electrical circuit design, test, and repair expert systems must support both structural data and inferential data about the circuit. It is well known that engineering databases must support dynamic schema (re)definition of the structural data and entity-based access to it. We analyze this requirement...
It is highly desirable for a distributed database system to achieve logically continuous operation even if some sites or message links fail. In this paper, we describe a scheme that can automatically reconfigure a fully-replicated distributed database system upon subsystem failures. The scheme can tolerate total failures of some sites....
Tbc expanding complexity of database application worlds, and the accelerating pace of change of these worlds mandate data models which support some of the tasks of data interpretation which formerly were borne by the applications programs. Chief among these are the support for virtual data, definition of transactions, and enforcement...
This paper presents a model for deterministic parsing which was designed to simplify the task or writing and understanding a deterministic grammar. While retaining structures and operations similar to those or Marcus's PARSIFAL parser [Marcus 80] the grammar language incorporates the following changes. (1) The use or productions operating in...
Caesar is an interactive graphic editor that is used to generate layouts for VLSI circuits . It runs on a VAX-11/780 under the UNIX operating system with Berkeley extensions. Caesar has a unique and simple user interface. Phled is an enhanced version of Caesar
that runs on a M68000-based engineering...
Crops were grown at the experimental farms using accepted cultural practices within the limits of experimentation or trials were conducted on growers' field. Most experiments were designed as randomized complete blocks with two to five replications. Herbicide treatments were applied uniformly with equipment ranging from precision plot sprayers to quart...
