Software Testing Tools Effectiveness for Quantification by Metrics

: An automated testing tool supports the testers to calculate the quality of software by testing the software automatically. To calculate the quality of software there is always a requirement of good testing tools, which fulfil the testing requirement. There is a wide range of testing tools available in the market and they vary in approach, quality, usability and other characteristics. Selecting the correct testing tool for software there is a requirement of approach to prioritize them on the basis of characteristics. We propose a set of metrics for measuring the characteristics of the automated testing tools for examination and selection of automated testing tools. A new extended model which is proposed provides the metrics to calculate the effectiveness of functional testing tools on the basis of operability. The industry will be benefited as they can use these metrics to evaluate functional tools and they can further make selection of tool for their software required to be tested and hence reduce the testing effort, saving time and gaining maximum monetary benefit.
Journal of Northwest Atlantic Fishery Science

The Atlantic chub mackerel (Scomber colias) stock is commercially exploited throughout the Atlantic and Mediterranean and has been recently targeted by a small, but emerging, fishery off the Northeast coast of the United States. Recent efforts by the Mid-Atlantic Fishery Management Council to manage the Northwest Atlantic stock have necessitated the description of its life-history characteristics. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the utility of ageing methods, describe the length-at-age and weight-at-length relationships, and compare estimated growth parameter values to those reported from other regions. We found that whole otoliths provided the most precise method for age determination of Atlantic chub mackerel. Age estimates were derived for adult (n = 422) and larval fish (n = 60). Parameter estimates of individual growth models were determined using a Bayesian framework. The length-at-age relationship was described using four non-linear candidate growth models, which were fit to total length (TL, cm) and age estimates (y). We found that the three-parameter VBGF (L∞ = 33.56 cm TL, k = 1.75 y-1, t0 = 0.07 y) was the best candidate model to describe the length-atage relationship. A power function was used to describe the weight-at-length relationship from 1 136 individuals (a = 0.0258, b = 2.72). We found that individuals exhibit a greater rate of growth and reach smaller average maximum length when compared to published estimates in other regions. The rate of increase of weight relative to length was found to be significantly lower than that reported in other regions. These results can be used to inform assessment of the Atlantic chub mackerel stock in the Northwest Atlantic.

A Broadcast Control System of Humanoid Robot by Wireless Marionette Style

When a speaker communicates a message to the listener, it can be expected to be transmitted more accurately by attaching an appropriate gesture to message. That theory is valid, whether the speaker and the listener are near or far away. However, for a speaker to deliver messages and gestures to a remote listener synchronously, it is necessary to have a real-time conversation system using video images. Therefore, in this research, we propose a mechanism for presenting gestures synchronized with gestures at low cost when sending messages to remote listeners. To realize that, we develop a method to move the robot near the speaker instead of conveying the gesture of the speaker by the video shot. In this proposed method, motion data of the hand of the speaker is acquired using a motion sensor, the data is processing, converting into information for moving the motor corresponding to the joint of the robot, and the information is transmitting to the remote robot, the robot moves with motion according to the intention of the speaker. To realize the proposed method, we prepared a mechanism to convert the hand gesture of the speaker into the motion data of the robot in real time and manipulate the robot in a remote place. In our system, we realize a function to transmit information of high urgency such as disaster information all at once to robots installed in each household. Based on these requirements, we developed a prototype of an information presentation system. By using this system, we expect the speaker's message to communicate to the multiple listeners effectively. 
Optimization of Ultrasonic Testing for Defect Localization Signal on S55C Carbon Steel Pipe

Piezoelectric testing system is one of the methods in inspectionand has been used for the detection of crackbased on reflection signal due to its numerous abilities include scanning for long-distance surface-area, different depth, and various shapes of crack. Accordingly, the current research proposed an optimizedthe Piezoelectricis applying to measure the defect localization based on effect of attenuation and frequency. Specifically, the Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was used to optimise the signal wave frequency excitation as well as the distance between the sensors array for optimum multiple defect detection on 60 mm diameter carbon steel pipe sample. In addition, an Artificial Axial and Hole defect was used to test the efficiency of the proposed system. The analysis of the experimental results suggests that the PZ-LW system must achieve up to 99.074% accuracy to locate the defect location for hole defect, followed by 96.46% and above accuracy in measuring the axial defect. Regarding this matter, the attenuation coefficient of signal is increase until 12.12% in each 40mm defect positioning changing. The simulation and experimental results suggests that the excitation frequency will be effect on the reflection amplitude signal and attenuation is directly proportional with defect location. The comparison proven within consistency and accuracy of the proposed PZ-LW system for carbon steel pipe inspection.
Vibration-enhanced droplet motion modes : Simulations of rocking , ratcheting , and ejection

Power plant water usage is a coupling of the Energy-Water nexus; this research investigates water droplet motion, with implications for water recovery in cooling towers. Simulations of a 2.6-mmdiameter droplet motion on a hydrophobic, vertical surface (i.e., advancing and receding contact angles of 120o and 60o) were conducted in XFlow using the lattice Boltzmann method. Results were compared to two experimental cases with xand y-direction vibrations; in the first case, experimental and simulated droplets experienced 30-Hz vibrations (i.e., ± 0.1 mm x-direction amplitude, ± 0.2 mm y-direction amplitude) and the droplet ratched down the surface. In the second case, 100-Hz vibrations (i.e., ± 0.8 mm x-direction amplitude, ± 0.2 mm y-direction amplitude) caused droplet ejection from the vibrating surface. Simulations were then conducted for a wide range of frequencies (i.e., 10–100 Hz) and amplitudes (i.e., ± 0.036–100 mm), resulting in accelerations of 0.197–1970 m/s2. Under low accelerations (e.g., < 7 m/s2) droplets rocked upwards and downwards in rocking mode, but did not overcome the contact angle hysteresis and, therefore, did not move. As acceleration increased, droplets overcame the contact hysteresis and entered ratcheting mode. For vibrations which prompted droplet motion, droplet velocities varied
What Does Someone's Gender Identity Signal to Employers?

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to explore the mechanisms underlying hiring discrimination against transgender men.Design/methodology/approachThe authors conduct a scenario experiment with final-year business students in which fictitious hiring decisions are made about transgender or cisgender male job candidates. More importantly, these candidates are scored on statements related to theoretical reasons for hiring discrimination given in the literature. The resulting data are analysed using a bivariate analysis. Additionally, a multiple mediation model is run.FindingsSuggestive evidence is found for co-worker and customer taste-based discrimination, but not for employer taste-based discrimination. In addition, results show that transgender men are perceived as being in worse health, being more autonomous and assertive, and have a lower probability to go on parental leave, compared with cisgender men, revealing evidence for (positive and negative) statistical discrimination.Social implicationsTargeted policy measures are needed given the substantial labour market discrimination against transgender individuals measured in former studies. However, to combat this discrimination effectively, one needs to understand its underlying mechanisms. This study provides the first comprehensive exploration of these mechanisms.Originality/valueThis study innovates in being one of the first to explore the relative empirical importance of dominant (theoretical) explanations for hiring discrimination against transgender men. Thereby, the authors take the logical next step in the literature on labour market discrimination against transgender individuals.
Evaluation of Physico-Chemical Characteristics of extracted oil of T-64, Tg-37A, TRG-4 and K4-11 groundnut varieties grown in India

In the present study four different groundnut varieties such as T-64,Tg-37A, TRG-4(Trg-4) and Karad 4-11(K411) were grown under different geographical places in India. Physicochemical characteristics of collected groundnut seeds and their extracted oils were determined for their nutritional assay. It was found that the seeds contained in the range of extracted oil, the specific gravity, viscosities, impurities, refractive index and colour of the extracted groundnut seed oil were in the range of 38.98-41.49(±1.089), 0.915-0.9162(± 0.0005) , 91.49-91.62 (± 0.0548), 0.025-0.06 (± 0.0147) , 1.4626-1.4638 (± 0.0006) and 1.24-2.32 (± 0.4741) yellow units respectively. AV (mg KOH/g oil), IV (g I2/100 g oil), SV (mg KOH/ g oil), ester value and unsaponifiable matter content (%) of the extracted oil from groundnut seeds were in the range of 1.99-3.38 (± 0.6084), 90.8-93.65 (± 1.2234),190.52-194.06(± 1.7525) ,188.31-191.84(± 1.8684) and 0.52-0.64 % (± 0.0529) respectively. This study is empirical and on the basis of finding it revealed that groundnut seed oil can be a valuable source of edible oil.
Experimental Study on Bituminous Mixes by Using Zycotherm

The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of warm mix additive on Bituminous Mixture and compare the mechanistic properties with conventional Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) through the laboratory testing programs. Roads are the lifeline for the health & sustained growth of economy. The conventional Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) method of road construction involves the burning of bitumen which produces toxic gases which degrades the environment. In colder region it is difficult to maintain the paving temperature of hot mix. These hot mixes are prepared at fairly high temperatures requiring high energy input. Other limitations associated with (HMA) use are like emission of green house gases, shut down of hot mix plants during rainy season, problems in maintaining the paving temperature when hauling distances are more, etc. To overcome these problems and conserve the energy without sacrificing its quality, Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA) Technology is considered as good option. In the present study HMA is replaced by WMA for the construction of flexible pavement. Warm Mix Asphalt is one of the newest technologies that allow mixing, production, placing and compaction of asphalt mixes at significantly lower temperatures result in reduced fuel usage while enhancing worker health and safety conditions during pavement construction due to chemical modification of the bitumen as compared to the traditional Hot Mix Asphalt practice. It is made possible by utilizing an additive which thins or reduces the viscosity of the asphalt binder at lower temperatures allowing sufficient coating of aggregates while maintaining workability. The composition of the WMA is same as that of HMA except for the chemical additive which lowers the viscosity of the bitumen. In this study an attempt is made to compare the Marshall properties and environmental benefits of WMA produced with an innovative chemical additive “Zycotherm” and HMA for bituminous Concrete (BC) Grade-2. The adopted mixing temperatures for HMA was 160°C and the mixing temperatures for WMA was 130°C, 125°C and 120°C, with an additive dosage rate of 0.1% by weight of the binder. The optimum binder content was to be found out individually for the mixture for different mixing temperatures. Results of laboratory performance indicated that the WMA at 125°C is better than WMA at 120°C and 130°C and also HMA at 160°C. The outcomes showed that the addition of Zycotherm had slightly improved the Marshall properties of the mixture.

The Use of Therapeutic Communication Symbol to Motivate Patient’s Healing

Therapeutic communication activity implemented health workers to the patient, implemented communication form with warmth and sincerity, is interpersonal communication, so patient feels close and comfortable. Therapeutic communication is a process developed by nurses to study clients where nurses use a planned approach, conduct interpersonal relationships and focus to the client. Therapeutic communication can be either verbal communication or nonverbal communication. Verbal communication can be distinguished: verbal communication using vowels, ie spoken language and verbal communication do not use vowels, ie written language. Communication activity can reduce the burden of mental disorders of patients. In the theory of therapy psychology can be done by someone by conveying the problem as far as possible to others.
[WeA1-1] Rotor Dynamic[WeA1-1] Rotor Dynamic Modelling as a Powerful Support Tool for Vibration Analysis on Large Turbomachinery

Laborelec is responsible for the follow-up of the vibration behaviour of a fleet of more than 100 shaft lines within the power generation division of GDF-Suez. A parallel monitoring of a large number of units permits a good comparison of the vibration behaviour of units of a similar type. In recent years, Laborelec started to construct rotor dynamic models of shaft line designs that are used on a larger scale in the monitored fleet. The development was made in collaboration with the company DELTA JS, using their commercial rotordynamic software MADYN 2000 [1]. The goal was to have a better understanding of the dynamic behaviour of the units, as well as to have a powerful support tool available for the analysis of occurring vibration problems. This paper describes some first experiences with the use of a rotor dynamic model for analysis purposes. A first case study describes the added value of the model for defining a fast and accurate balancing correction at the shaft end of a generator, which was then actually implemented in the power plant. A second case study describes the important role of the rotor dynamic model in the root cause analysis of vibration problems related to misalignment on a complex shaft line design. The model permitted to identify the critical speeds and bearings that have an important influence on the vibration behaviour.
Pressure Ulcer Scale for Healing (PUSH): interobserver reliability in the evaluation of venous ulcers

The aim of this study was to evaluate interobserver reliability of the Pressure Ulcer Scale for Healing (PUSH) tool, in patients with venous ulcers. This methodological research was conducted in outpatient health care units, between June 2016 and August 2017. The participants were 10 nurses, who performed 46 observations of 35 wounds. Each observation was performed by a reference nurse, who provided the gold standard evaluation, and two clinical nurses participating in the research as subjects. To analyze the level of agreement, the Kappa index and intraclass correlation coefficient were used. Kappa values of the subscales ranged from 0.6 to 0.85 (p <0.001). There was almost perfect interobserver agreement for "area" and "exudate quantity" and substantial interobserver agreement for "tissue type" and "total score". The intraclass correlation coefficients were > 0.9, indicating excellent reliability. It is, thus, concluded that the PUSH presents satisfactory interobserver reliability for evaluating venous ulcers.

High Skilled Immigration and the Market for Skilled Labor: The Role of Occupational Choice

In recent years, immigration rates have increased dramatically among the most highly skilled workers. How does this in ow a ect labor market outcomes among highly skilled native-born workers? I estimate a general equilibrium model in which individuals choose their occupations and invest into occupation speci c human capital. I estimate the demand functions for native and immigrant workers and nd that skilled immigrants and natives are imperfect substitutes in some occupations and complements in others. Counterfactual exercises indicate that even large in ows of foreign skilled workers have limited impacts on domestic workers. In particular, skill rental rates for native science and engineering workers would have been approximately 2% higher if rms were not able to hire more foreigners than they did in 1994. On the other hand, had U.S. workers being constrained to remain in their original occupations, the adverse impacts of foreign labor competition would be more severe. The restriction of occupational mobility would be particular costly for young workers whose cost is estimated to equal approximately $40000. When natives' occupational choices respond to immigration, the negative e ects are di used. The extent to which this occupational mobility helps to absorb the immigration shock depends not only on the substitution elasticity in the directly a ected occupations, but also on the demand elasticity of native labor in the destination occupations where natives move to.
CAMELYON17: AUTONATIC CLASSIFIER FOR PATHOLOGIC LYMPH NODE

Automatic detection of breast cancer from whole slide images is a challenge, due to the large-scale data with enormous resolutions and existence of hard mimics. In this paper, we describe a framework to automatically predict slide-level cancer metastasis with the Convolutional neural network(CNN). And we propose a novel framework by leveraging fully convolutional networks for efficient inference to meet the speed requirement for clinical practice. First, a whole slide image was split into a small patch as a detector for our special fully convolutional network. Next, the patch-level result is reconstructed to a confident map. After post-processed the image by simple morphology opening and morphology closing operation to remove the small outliers, the confident map is predicted by a slide-level lymph node classifier module.
Financing for Whom by Whom? Complexicities of Advancing Energy Access in India

About a quarter of India’s population still lives without access to modern electricity. The majority of these people live in rural, remote areas which cannot be easily connected to the central grid. Supplying those without power and supplementing the intermittent electricity provision of those who are connected has become a central goal of the government. In working to achieve this goal, India has become a laboratory for innovative energy systems as well as finance structures that enable customers to gain access to these systems. By exploring case studies of different financing structures as well as interviewing solar technology business owners, I find that end-user financing (i.e. consumer subsidies and tax rebates) is relatively ineffective at enhancing sales of off-grid solar technologies. End-user financing relies on formal banking systems and hinders firms from passing on subsidized costs because of extenuated bureaucratic cost recovery. Alternatively, innovative financing structures, such as pay-as-you-go (PAYG) systems, crowdfunding, and different types of support for private companies and entrepreneurs have all shown promise to provide adaptable and timely support. If the government is to make meaningful progress toward its national goal to extend a constant supply of electricity to every household in the coming years, it will need to learn from and adapt its current financing structures for off-grid solar (and other renewable energy) technologies.
