  • Development of a mechanistic overlay design procedure for flexible pavements

    Creator:
    Zhou, Haiping
    Abstract:
    This dissertation describes the development of a mechanistic overlay design procedure. The mechanistic analysis represents a new trend in both new pavement and overlay design. The greatest advantage of the mechanistic pavement analysis is that it considers the fundamental characteristics of materials to be used, is capable of considering changes...

  • A study of macro level complexity metrics

    Creator:
    Harrison, Warren A.
    Abstract:
    Controlling the "complexity" or "understandability" of computer software is important because of its impact on program testing and maintenance. Of the large number of complexity metrics that have been developed to measure the complexity of a computer program, most assess the "micro-complexity" of each subprogram and few assess the "macro-complexity"...

  • Comparison of pharmacokinetic data analysis with two competing pharmacokinetic software program

    Creator:
    Karnpracha, Chanida
    Abstract:
    Pharmacokinetics (PK) is the study of the transit of drug into, within and removal from the body to reveal how the body acts on a drug when it is taken. There are four major areas in PK: absorption, distribution, metabolism and elimination. Pharmacokinetics research can be separated into two areas:...

  • An empirical comparison of mutant selection approaches

    Creator:
    Gopinath, Rahul, Alipour, Amin, Ahmed, Iftekhar, Jensen, Carlos, and Groce, Alex
    Abstract:
    Mutation analysis is a well-known method for measuring the quality of test suites. However, it is computationally intensive compared to other measures, which makes it hard to use in practice. Choosing a smaller subset of mutations to run is a simple approach that can alleviate this problem. Mutation operator selection...

  • A methodology for testing spreadsheet grids

    Creator:
    Sheretov, Andrei
    Abstract:
    Although there has been research into ways to design spreadsheet systems to improve the processes of creating new spreadsheets and of understanding existing ones, little attention has been given to helping users of these environments test their spreadsheets. To help address this need, we introduce two visual approaches to testing...

  • Process segmentation and modelling applied to time series featuring the response of biological materials to toxic agents

    Creator:
    Teng, Angela
    Abstract:
    The detection of biological and chemical toxins has become one of the main concerns in environmental and military fields. In this framework, the department of Microbiology and Biochemistry at Oregon State University has discovered that fish living cells are promising indicators of the presence of a wide range of toxins....

  • Enhancing Search-Based Techniques with Information Control Dependencies

    Creator:
    Aburas, Ali
    Abstract:
    Software testing is a very important task during software development and it can be used to improve the quality and reliability of the software system. One potential way to reduce the cost and increase the efficiency of software testing is to generate test data automatically. Search-based approaches successfully generate unit...

  • Test case prioritization

    Creator:
    Malishevsky, Alexey Grigorievich
    Abstract:
    Regression testing is an expensive software engineering activity intended to provide confidence that modifications to a software system have not introduced faults. Test case prioritization techniques help to reduce regression testing cost by ordering test cases in a way that better achieves testing objectives. In this thesis, we are interested...

  • Extensions to the WYSIWYT methodology

    Creator:
    Ren, Bing
    Abstract:
    Researchers in the Forms/3 group have previously developed the WYSIWYT methodology, exploring a way of systematically testing spreadsheet languages. The previous work presented the WYSIWYT methodology for individual spreadsheet cells, and later partially extended it to large grids in which some cells share the same formula. The Forms/3 spreadsheet language...
