Fearless Friday: Ashley Fernandez
This week, SURGE is delighted to honor Ashley Fernandez â16 for Fearless Friday!
Ashley is a senior at Gettysburg and is majoring in Political Science and Public Policy. When asked where sheâs from, Ashley usually responds âManhattan.â When most people think of Manhattan, they think of Times Square or the Empire State Building. Ashley, however, clarifies sheâs from an area of Manhattan called Washington Heights, or âLittle Dominican Republic,â which is named as such for itâs large Latino community. A Latina herself, Ashley definitely felt the change between Little DR and Gettysburg College. At predominantly white college like Gettysburg, she knew she wanted to form connections with students of color, but also did not hesitate to form connections with students from all over campus. Anyone that has the pleasure of interacting with Ashley immediately feels comfortable, happy, and listened-to. [excerpt
Revision of the family Carabodidae (Acari, Oribatida) VII. Redefinition of the genus Malgasodes; redescription of M. curvisetus Mahunka, 2000; and complementary description of M. hungarorum Mahunka, 2010. Phylogenetic relationships between Malgasodes, Bovicarabodes, Afticarabodes, Congocepheus and Cavaecarabodes are discussed
The genus Malgasodes is redefined; the type species M. curvisetus Mahunka, 2000, is redescribed by meansof studies using optic and Scanning Electron Microsopy (SEM), and a complementary description of M.hungarorum Mahunka, 2000 is included. Comparison of genera Malgasodes Mahunka, 2000, Bovicarabodes Fernandez, Theron, Rollard, 2013a, Cavaecarabodes Fernandez, Theron, Rollard, Rodriguez Castillo,2014, Afticarabodes Fernandez, Theron, Rollard, 2013b, and Congocepheus Balogh, 1958 is made. Problems concerning chaetotaxy, regressive evolution and neotrichy are explained and phylogenetic relationships between Malgasodes, Bovicarabodes, Afticarabodes, Congocepheus and Cavaecarabodes are discussed.Fil: FernĂĄndez, NĂ©stor Alfredo.

Application of the Fernandez-Terrazo et al. one-step chemistry model for partially premixed combustion to n-heptane
A set of model parameters has been derived for the use of the model with n-heptane following the procedure set out by Fernandez et al
A New State Record for \u3ci\u3eOlixon Banksii\u3c/i\u3e (Hymenoptera: Rhopalosomatidae) in Missouri.
(excerpt)
The cosmopolitan family Rhopalosmatidae is comprised of four genera and 37 species (Townes 1977, Goulet and Huber 1993, Fernandez and Sarmiento-M 2002, Lohrmann and Ohl 2007)
Comment on "Under-reported data analysis with INAR-hidden Markov chains"
In Fernandez-Fontelo et al (Statis. Med. 2016, DOI 10.1002/sim.7026) hidden
integer-valued autoregressive (INAR) processes are used to estimate reporting
probabilities for various diseases. In this comment it is demonstrated that the
Poisson INAR(1) model with time-homogeneous underreporting can be expressed
equivalently as a completely observed INAR(inf) model with a geometric lag
structure. This implies that estimated reporting probabilities depend on the
assumed lag structure of the latent process.Comment: This is the pre-reviewing version of a letter published in Statistics

Testing times: on model-driven test generation for non-deterministic real-time systems
Summary form only given. Although testing has always been the most important technique for the validation of software systems it has only become a topic of serious academic research in the past decade or so. In this period research on the use of formal methods for model-driven test generation and execution of functional test cases has led to a number of promising methods and tools for systematic black-box testing of systems, examples are based on A. Belinfante et al. (1999), J. Tretmans and E. Brinksma (2003), J.-C. Fernandez et al. (1996) and J.-C. Fernandez et al. (1997). Most of these approaches are limited to the qualitative behaviour of systems, and exclude quantitative aspects such as real-time properties. The explosive growth of embedded software, however, has also caused a growing need to extend existing testing theories to the testing of real-time reactive systems. In our presentation we present an extension of Tretmans' ioco theory for test generation as stated in J. Tretmans (1996) for input/output transition systems that includes real-time behaviour
