Programming style is important for program understanding in programming tasks such as maintenance. testing, and debugging. The goal of programming style is to improve the readability of the source program without adversely affecting its performance.
Critique is a FORTRAN source program style critic which analyzes the source program and outputs...
In this report, we present future projections of climate and climate-related natural hazards in Benton County for the 2020s (2010–2039) and 2050s (2040–2069) relative to the 1971–2000 historical baseline. The projections are based on multiple global climate models for both a lower greenhouse gas emissions scenario (RCP 4.5) and a...
In this article, we provide a brief overview of generative artificial intelligence and large language models. We then propose eight critical questions that libraries should ask when exploring this technology and its implications for their communities. We argue that libraries have a unique role in facilitating informed and responsible use...
Listeria monocytogenes is the third most deadly foodborne pathogen in the United States. The young and elderly, as well as pregnant and immunocompromised people are the population most susceptible to serious illness and death from listeriosis infections.
Unlike most foodborne pathogens, L. monocytogenes does not live a solely enteric lifestyle....
In this report, we describe an implementation of a prototype information resources management system for the synthesis and integration project of the forest response program using a 4GL application development system ACCELL. Our system is called Prototype Virtual Data Management System (PVDMS). ACCELL is a software package that combines a...
Hayes, in his Naive Physics Manifesto, identified two alternate ontologies for reasoning about liquids, an ontology based on the notion of a contained substance and one based on the notion of a molecular collection. Qualitative Process theory, proposed by Forbus, lends itself easily to encoding the contained substance ontology. It...
An execution of a database system is considered correct if its net effect is as if transactions were executed serially, and such an execution is called serializable. In this short paper we show that the serializability test problem can be reduced to a simple pebbling problem. Our characterization is intuitive...
This paper explores the use of sonification, the conversion of data into sound, to convey the significance of SARS-COV-2 and its global impact. It emphasizes sonification as a valuable tool for making complex data accessible, particularly in high school education. Sonification, an interdisciplinary field, leverages the human auditory system's pattern...
Russet Burbank, Shepody, Frontier Russet, and Ranger Russet potatoes were tested for their response under furrow irrigation to PAM-treated irrigation water. The use of PAM was associated with an increase in US Number One tubers for Russet Burbank and Shepody varieties.
