Derivation Lengths Classification of G\"odel's T Extending Howard's Assignment

Let T be Goedel's system of primitive recursive functionals of finite type in the lambda formulation. We define by constructive means using recursion on nested multisets a multivalued function I from the set of terms of T into the set of natural numbers such that if a term a reduces to a term b and if a natural number I(a) is assigned to a then a natural number I(b) can be assigned to b such that I(a) is greater than I(b). The construction of I is based on Howard's 1970 ordinal assignment for T and Weiermann's 1996 treatment of T in the combinatory logic version. As a corollary we obtain an optimal derivation length classification for the lambda formulation of T and its fragments. Compared with Weiermann's 1996 exposition this article yields solutions to several non-trivial problems arising from dealing with lambda terms instead of combinatory logic terms. It is expected that the methods developed here can be applied to other higher order rewrite systems resulting in new powerful termination orderings since T is a paradigm for such systems

Verfahren und System zum Registrieren eines Konstruktionsdatenmodells in einem Raum

Zusammenfassung: Um ein Verfahren zum Registrieren eines Relativkoordinaten eines zu bearbeitenden und/oder zu untersuchenden Objektes (2, 20) enthaltenden Konstruktionsdatenmodells in einem Raum (1, 19), anzugeben, welche unter Umgehung der Nachteile des Standes des Technik ein bequemeres, weniger fehleranfälliges Registrieren eines Relativkoordinaten eines zu bearbeitenden und/oder zu untersuchenden Objektes enthaltenden Konstruktionsdatenmodells in einem Raum ermöglichen, , wird vorgeschlagen, dass lokalisierte Daten, vorzugsweise eine optische Information, insbesondere Fotografie, des Objektes (2, 20) aufgenommen werden und anschließend das Objekt (2, 20) mittels eines Mustererkennungsverfahrens in der optischen Information identifiziert wird

Emergent software service platform and its application in a smart mobility setting

The development dynamics of digital innovations for industry, business, and society are producing complex system conglomerates that can no longer be designed centrally and hierarchically in classic development processes. Instead, systems are evolving in DevOps processes in which heterogeneous actors act together on an open platform. Influencing and controlling such dynamically and autonomously changing system landscapes is currently a major challenge and a fundamental interest of service users and providers, as well as operators of the platform infrastructures. In this paper, we propose an architecture for such an emergent software service platform. A software platform that implements this architecture with the underlying engineering methodology is demonstrated by a smart parking lot scenario

Concept development of a visual assistance system for manual scarf repairs of composite structures made of fibre reinforced plastics

Manual repairs of composite structures are state-of-the-art across various industries. Regarding scarf repairs of carbon fibre reinforced plastics in particular, the underlying manual grinding process is time-consuming and therefore cost-intensive. Furthermore the grinding quality is inconstant and the achievable accuracy is limited. Due to multiple technological challenges in the automation of scarf repairs a largely manual execution can be expected to remain in the future. A concept of a visual assistance system is presented, which can contribute to increase the process robustness and decrease the impact of individual capabilities. This system scans the actual shape of the repair area and compares it to a reference geometry. An integrated projector displays the result on the processed surface by using a multi-colour scheme. Thereby the technician obtains a feedback about the current state of the grinding process. A first experimental test of the system demonstrates the principle feasibility of the assistance concept. Based on these results the potential for improvements of the process performance is shown and further development needs are derived

Real-World Evidence Study on the Long-Term Safety of Everolimus in Patients With Tuberous Sclerosis Complex: Final Analysis Results

Everolimus; Post-authorization safety study; Tuberous sclerosis complexEverolimus; Estudio de seguridad posautorización; Complejo de esclerosis tuberosaEverolimus; Estudi de seguretat posterior a l'autorització; Complex d'esclerosi tuberosaThe TuberOus SClerosis registry to increase disease Awareness (TOSCA) Post-Authorization Safety Study (PASS) was a non-interventional, multicenter, safety substudy that assessed the long-term safety of everolimus in patients with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) receiving everolimus for its licensed indications in the European Union (EU). This substudy also aimed to address TSC-associated neuropsychiatric disorders (TAND), sexual development, and male infertility. Eligible patients were enrolled from 39 sites across 11 countries in the EU. Outcomes of interest included the incidence of adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs), treatment-related AEs (TRAEs), AEs leading to everolimus discontinuation, AEs of special interest (AESIs), the observed relationship between everolimus blood levels and incidence of AESIs, TAND, and reproductive clinical features. Herein, we present the final analysis results from this substudy (data cutoff date: 22 January 2020). At data cutoff, 179 patients were enrolled (female, 59.2%; age ≥18 years, 65.9%), of which the majority completed the study (76%). Overall, 121 patients (67.6%) had AEs regardless of causality. The most frequent TRAEs (≥5%) were stomatitis (7.8%), aphthous ulcer (6.7%), and hypercholesterolemia (6.1%). The most common treatment-related SAEs (>1%) were pneumonia (3.4%), influenza, pyelonephritis, aphthous ulcer, stomatitis, dyslipidemia, and hypercholesterolemia (1.1% each). Ten patients (5.6%) reported AEs leading to everolimus discontinuation. The common psychiatric disorders (N = 179) were autism spectrum disorder (21.8%), anxiety disorder (12.8%), “other” psychiatric disorders (8.9%), attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, and depressive disorder (7.8% each). Of 179 patients, 88 (49.2%) had ≥1 behavioral problem. Of these (n = 88), the most common (>20%) were sleep difficulties (47.7%), anxiety (43.2%), mood swings (37.5%), depression mood (35.2%), impulsivity (30.7%), severe aggression (23.9%), and overactivity (22.7%). Of 179 patients, four (2.2%) reported abnormal puberty onset, and three (1.7%) reported other reproductive disorders. Of 106 females, 23 (21.7%) reported menstrual cycle disorders and 10 (9.4%) reported amenorrhea. Available data did not show delays in sexual maturation or an association between sexual development and infertility. The results demonstrate that everolimus has a manageable long-term safety profile in the TSC treatment setting. No new safety signals emerged. This substudy also contributed to the mapping of TAND and reproductive clinical features in patients with TSC.This study was funded by Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation
