51 White, Nicholas P.Review of J. Moline, "Plato's theory of understandingThe Introduction to this book promises a " synoptic" (p. xi; cf. p. 183) account of Plato's concept (£moi;f]UT|), which Prof. Moline says is the "central integrating concept" of Plato's dialogues (p. ix). The term "synoptic" here appears to mean that the book treats and links problems in such ar...Synoptic; Knowledge; Meaning1983
52 Gardner, Reed M.The Risk of Infection Related to Radial vs Femoral Sites for Arterial CatheterizationBiomedical Informatics1983
53 Gardner, Reed M.Signal Processing for Computerized SpirometryBiomedical Informatics1983
54 Miller, Joel Steven; Epstein, Arthur J.Solitons in nearly commensurate organic charge transfer crystalsX-ray diffuse scattering, magnetic, and conductivity studies of (N-methylphenazinium)x (phenazine)1-x (tetracyanoquinodimethan) [(NMPx(Phen)1-x (TCNQ)] show the formation of defect states for 0.50≤x≤0.54. These results are in agreement with the formation of solitons in a highly correlated quasi-...Charge-transfer salts1983
55 Henderson, Thomas C.Some experiments with the 3-D hough shape transformThe application of the Hough shape transform to the problem of the identification and localization of objects in 3-space is presented. The rotation-invariant Hough transform is defined which permits the determination of the geometric transformation from the model to the detected object. Given a samp...Hough shape transform1983
56 Battin, Margaret P.Suicide and ethical theoryExcept in the present century, suicide has been viewed throughout Western history as an act having ethical significance, one for which moral blame or praise was a proper response. Response, of course, varied with the times. During the Stoic era of Greece and Rome, suicide was praised as the morall...Ethical theory1983
57 Hanna, Patricia LeeSummaries and comments on Lappin, S. Sorts, ontology and metaphor: the semantics of sortal structureIn this interesting study, Shalom Lappin argues that any adequate theory of sortal incorrectness must meet four requirements. First, it must account for the truth valuelessness of sortally incorrect sentences. Second, it must provide a means of distinguishing truth valuelessness arising from sortal...Valuelessness; Incorrectness1983
58 Battin, Margaret P.Telling confessions: confidentiality in the practice of religionWHEN, if ever, may or should a professional practitioner reveal a confidential disclosure? This is a question of moral concern that arises in many areas of professional ethics. Those who have access to private information include many individuals, among them physicians, psychiatrists, attorneys, tea...1983
59 Subrahmanyam, P.A.TRACIS: transformations on Ada for circuit synthesis a report on the methodology for a silicon compilerThis report describes in detail, the ongoing design and implementation of a transformation system, for compiling specifications of integrated circuits into silicon. There are many levels in this process, and the area that we focus on produces target specifications of asynchronous and synchronous con...TRACIS; transformation system1983

61 Organick, Elliott I.Transformation of Ada program units into silicon (Fourth Semiannual technical report 83 Apr 1 - 83 Nov 15)This report, augmented with several appended papers and supplementary reports describes the most recent six months of work on the research project, "Transformation of Ada Programs into Silicon". This report is also the last of the series to be rendered under the current contact.Transformation; Ada program units; Silicon1983
62 Organick, Elliott I.; Lindstrom, Gary E.Transforming an Ada program unit to silicon and verifying its behavior in an Ada environment: a first experimentMicroelectronics technology has advanced so rapidly and been so successful that we are new having to build large systems with a multitude of diverse, interacting components. Some components of these systems exhibit distinct architectures and may, in fact, be implemented following different choices o...Transformation; Ada program units; Silicon1983
63 Organick, Elliott I.; Lindstrom, Gary E.Transparent interface between software and hardware versions of ADA compilation unitsThe Ada-to-Silicon project at Utah is developing a methodology (and associated software and hardware) for the high level testing of Ada compilation units that are represented as hardware components (circuitry). There are two motivations for this research.Ada-to-Silicon; ADA compilation units1983
64 Coley, Phyllis D.Uprooting and snapping of trees: structural determinants and ecological consequencesThe influence of mechanical and architectural properties of trees on growth rates, mortality rates, and relative probabilities of snapping and uprooting were examined on Barro Colorado Island, Republic of Panama. Of 310 fallen trees, 70% snapped, 25% uprooted, and 5% broke off at ground level. Stepw...Snapping; Uprooting1983
