Extending the data dictionary for data/knowledge management
Current relational database technology provides the means for efficiently storing and retrieving large amounts of data. By combining techniques learned from the field of artificial intelligence with this technology, it is possible to expand the capabilities of such systems. This paper suggests using the expanded domain concept, an object-oriented organization, and the storing of knowledge rules within the relational database as a solution to the unique problems associated with CAD/CAM and engineering data
The Slowdown in Soviet Defense Expenditures: Comment
The reason for the apparently opposing results in Brada and Graves\u27 (1988) attempt to explain the reasons for the slowdown in USSR defense expenditures in the mid-1970s is that their analysis suffers from a serious serial correlation problem. The majority of the regressions display Durbin-Watson statistics that reject the null hypothesis of no autocorrelation. A reestimation of their results, after correcting for serial correlation, changes some of their major conclusions regarding the factors influencing Soviet defense spending. The corrected results indicate that no structural break occurred in the mid-1970s. These results suggest that there has been no change in Soviet military doctrine or in the Soviet leadership\u27s preferences in the 1970s. In reply, Brada and Graves argue that the evidence for the existence of serially correlated disturbances is much more tenuous than Chowdhury suggests and that the evidence is more consistent with the existence of a structural break and no serial correlation of disturbances

Sub-picosecond compression by velocity bunching in a photo-injector
We present an experimental evidence of a bunch compression scheme that uses a
traveling wave accelerating structure as a compressor. The bunch length issued
from a laser-driven radio-frequency electron source was compressed by a factor
>3 using an S-band traveling wave structure located immediately downstream from
the electron source. Experimental data are found to be in good agreement with
particle tracking simulations.Comment: 19 pages, 9 figures, submitted to Phys. Rev. Spec. Topics A&
