As such, a DSL is a means to describe and generate members of a family of programs in the domain. A prerequisite for the design of a DSL is a detailed analysis and structuring of the application domain. Graphical feature diagrams have been proposed to organize the dependencies between such features, and to indicate which ones are common to all family members and which ones vary. In this paper, we study feature diagrams in more details, as well as their relationship to domain-specific languages. We propose the Feature Description Language (FDL), a textual language to describe features. We explore automated manipulation of feature descriptions such as normalization, expansion to disjunctive normal form, variability computation and constraint satisfaction. Feature descriptions can be directly mapped to UML diagrams which in their turn can be used for Java code generation. The value of FDL is assessed via a case study in the use and expressiveness of feature descriptions for the area of documentation generators.","PeriodicalId":49524,"journal":{"name":"Sigmod Record","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2002-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.2498/CIT.2002.01.01","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69306348","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The propagation is due to the interplay of band-to-band tunneling and impact ionization. Our numerical simulations show that the front can be triggered when an extremely sharp voltage ramp (∼10 kV/ns) is applied in reverse direction to a Si p+–n–n+ structure that is connected in series with an external load. The triggering occurs after a delay of 0.7 to 0.8 ns. The maximal electrical field at the front edge exceeds 106 V/cm. The front velocity vf is 40 times faster than the saturated drift velocity vs. The front passes through the n-base with a thickness of 100 μm within approximately 30 ps, filling it with dense electron–hole plasma. This passage is accompanied by a voltage drop from 8 kV to a voltage in the order of 10 V. In this way a voltage pulse with a ramp up to 500 kV/ns can be applied to the load. The possibility to create a kilovolt pulse with such a voltage rise rate sets new frontiers in pulse power electronics.","PeriodicalId":49524,"journal":{"name":"Sigmod Record","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2001-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1063/1.1486258","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"58440358","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The workshop \"Cross-Organizational Workflow Management and Co-ordination\" at the International Joint Conference on Work Activities Coordination and Collaboration, San Francisco, February 22 - 25, 1999 provided a forum to discuss workflow management and co-ordination in situations in which processes span multiple independent organisations.
