White, Nicholas P. | Review of J. Moline, "Plato's theory of understanding | The 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; Meaning | 1983 |

Miller, Joel Steven; Epstein, Arthur J. | Solitons in nearly commensurate organic charge transfer crystals | X-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 salts | 1983 |

Henderson, Thomas C. | Some experiments with the 3-D hough shape transform | The 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 transform | 1983 |

Battin, Margaret P. | Suicide and ethical theory | Except 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 theory | 1983 |

Hanna, Patricia Lee | Summaries and comments on Lappin, S. Sorts, ontology and metaphor: the semantics of sortal structure | In 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; Incorrectness | 1983 |

Battin, Margaret P. | Telling confessions: confidentiality in the practice of religion | WHEN, 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 |

Subrahmanyam, P.A. | TRACIS: transformations on Ada for circuit synthesis a report on the methodology for a silicon compiler | This 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 system | 1983 |

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; Silicon | 1983 |

Organick, Elliott I.; Lindstrom, Gary E. | Transforming an Ada program unit to silicon and verifying its behavior in an Ada environment: a first experiment | Microelectronics 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; Silicon | 1983 |

Organick, Elliott I.; Lindstrom, Gary E. | Transparent interface between software and hardware versions of ADA compilation units | The 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 units | 1983 |

Coley, Phyllis D. | Uprooting and snapping of trees: structural determinants and ecological consequences | The 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; Uprooting | 1983 |
