A Case Study in Matching Service Descriptions to Implementations in an Existing System

A number of companies are trying to migrate large monolithic software systems to Service Oriented Architectures. A common approach to do this is to first identify and describe desired services (i.e., create a model), and then to locate portions of code within the existing system that implement the described services. In this paper we describe a detailed case study we undertook to match a model to an open-source business application. We describe the systematic methodology we used, the results of the exercise, as well as several observations that throw light on the nature of this problem. We also suggest and validate heuristics that are likely to be useful in partially automating the process of matching service descriptions to implementations.Comment: 20 pages, 19 pdf figure

A PERSPECTIVE ON ANTIINFECTIVE AGENTS INTERACTION IN HUMAN IMMUNODEFICIENCY VIRUS PATIENTS WITH MALARIAL INFECTION

ABSTRACTDespite recent research advances in anti-infective agents (achievements), Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and malaria infection are currentlyconsidered two main global human health problems. Given the considerable geographical overlap between malaria and HIV, a substantial number ofco-infection incidences occur in human. The purpose of this review is to summarize the information on the clinical impact of co-infection, therapeuticanti-infective agents' interaction in human and future research priorities.Keywords: Malaria, Human immunodeficiency virus, Co-infection, Anti-malarial drug and anti-retroviral drug interaction, Public health, Clinicalepidemiology, Anti-infective agents

Generation of Werner states via collective decay of coherently driven atoms

We show deterministic generation of Werner states as a steady state of the collective decay dynamics of a pair of neutral atom coupled to a leaky cavity and strong coherent drive. We also show how the scheme can be extended to generate $2N$-particle analogue of the bipartite Werner states.Comment: 4 pages, 1 figur

Cavity-mediated long-range interaction for fast multiqubit quantum logic operations

Interactions among qubits are essential for performing two-qubit quantum logic operations. However, nature gives us only nearest neighbor interactions in simple and controllable settings. Here we propose a strategy to induce interactions among two atomic entities that are not necessarily neighbors of each other through their common coupling with a cavity field. This facilitates fast multiqubit quantum logic operations through a set of two-qubit operations. The ideas presented here are applicable to various quantum computing proposals for atom based qubits such as, trapped ions, atoms trapped in optical cavities and optical lattices.Comment: 10 pages, 3 figure
