A characteristic study of performance bugs in application-database interactions
… magnify the bottlenecks. Understanding the characteristics of these performance bugs is crucial for developers and testers to better address performance problems. Such understanding also provides guidance for researchers and tool vendors to develop effective tool support. However, there has …

Heat Transfer and Flow Characteristic Study in a Low Emission Annular Combustor
… and estimate. A coupled experimental-numerical study of swirling flow and its effects on combustor liner heat transfer inside a DLE annular combustor model is presented. A simulated scaled up annular combustor shell was designed with a generic fuel nozzle provided by Solar Turbines to create the …

Behavior-Based Simulation Approach for the Capacity and Traffic Operational Characteristic Study of Four-Way-Stop-Controlled Intersections
The objective of the proposed research is to study the traffic operational characteristics at four-way-stop-controlled (FWSC) intersections with single -lane approaches. Observational data were collected at six FWSC intersections in Lawrence, Kansas. Then, the necessary traffic data were extracted …

Characterizing system failures in commercial and open source systems
… fail quite often in the field. Understanding the characteristics of system failures is a prerequisite to come up with effective solutions to address these system problems. This thesis focuses on the failures introduced by incorrect bug fixes (a.k.a, buggy patches) and configuration errors. Bug …

The Moderating Effect of Physical Activity on the Association between White Matter Hyperintensities and Gait Characteristics
… conditions, in a geriatric clinic sample. Study 1 systematically reviewed the literature demonstrating that greater WMH burden was associated with predefined motor outcomes. Notably, gait velocity emerged as a well-studied characteristic. Study 2 confirmed that WMH negatively affected gait …

3D Aerodynamic Optimization of NREL VI Wind Turbine Blade for Increased Power Output and Visualization of Flow Characteristics
… Parameter correlation and sensitivity analysis study relates the effectiveness of design parameters on the objective outcome. Scatter plots and Determination Matrix indicate the problem setup as non-linear quadratic. Adaptive Single Objective Optimization algorithm is used for the optimization …

Improving failure diagnosis via better design and analysis of log messages
… dissertation provides the first comprehensive study on the logging effectiveness. By examining developers own modifications to their logging code in the revision history, this study found that developers often do not make the log messages right in their first attempts, and thus need to spend a …

Development of Advanced Image Processing Algorithms for Bubbly Flow Measurement
… theoretical model development in two-phase flow study. Due to the interaction between the gas and liquid phase, the flow patterns are complicated in recorded image data. The segmentation and reconstruction of overlapping bubbles in these images is a challenging task. This dissertation provides a …

Generating regular expressions from natural language specifications: A semantics-based approach and an empirical study
… the program-synthesis problem. In particular, we study the task in two aspects. First, we address the issue of Program Aliasing, and propose a semantics-based approach named SemRegex. Different from the existing syntax-based approaches, SemRegex trains the model by maximizing the expected semantic …

Effect of liquid properties (water and lime juice) on spray characteristics of deflected flat spray nozzle (AL-75)
… liquid pressure used for atomization. This study is on characteristic with different ratio of liquid properties which can affect the spray behaviour for this spray such as spray angle, spray development and velocity. The objective for this research is to get the best atomizer within 1 bar to …

Whole-system testing and analysis of actor programs
… of concurrent programs. We first present a characteristic study on real-world bugs in distributed data-processing production systems to identify common challenges and opportunities in reliability assurance of generic concurrent systems, and motivate the need of testing and analyzing the …

The Model Diet: Building a tailored dietary intervention for fashion models to meet the needs of the individual and the occupational and social constraints of the fashion industry
… (5) studies were carried out to achieve this. Study 1 consisted of Semi-Structured Industry Professional Interviews. Participants (n=28) were industry professionals who were interviewed about the professional requirements for fashion models. Interviews were coded then valued numerically. This …
