A New Technique

Software birthmark is a unique quality of software to detect software theft. Comparing birthmarks of software can tell us whether a program or software is a copy of another. Software theft and piracy are rapidly increasing problems of copying, stealing, and misusing the software without proper permission, as mentioned in the desired license agreement. The estimation of birthmark can play a key role in understanding the effectiveness of a birthmark. In this paper, a new technique is presented to evaluate and estimate software birthmark based on the two most sought-after properties of birthmarks, that is, credibility and resilience. For this purpose, the concept of soft computing such as probabilistic and fuzzy computing has been taken into account and fuzzy logic is used to estimate properties of birthmark. The proposed fuzzy rule based technique is validated through a case study and the results show that the technique is successful in assessing the specified properties of the birthmark, its resilience and credibility. This, in turn, shows how much effort will be required to detect the originality of the software based on its birthmark.

A New Technique

Homoclinic bifurcations of both equilibria and periodic orbits are argued to be critical for understanding the dynamics of the Hindmarsh–Rose model in particular, as well as of some square-wave bursting models of neurons of the Hodgkin–Huxley type. They explain very well various transitions between the tonic spiking and bursting oscillations in the model. We present the approach that allows for constructing Poincaré return mapping via the averaging technique. We show that a modified model can exhibit the blue sky bifurcation, as well as, a bistability of the coexisting tonic spiking and bursting activities. A new technique for localizing a slow motion manifold and periodic orbits on it is also presented.

Maintenance Model

The paper first demonstrates some relevant concepts with virtual maintenance, and further discusses the concepts and connotations of virtual maintenance. As the key techniques, virtual maintenance model and simulation method are studied in the paper. Virtual maintenance model (VMM) is present, and the model is based on Petri Net and can describe the relations of maintenance resources. In addition, virtual maintenance simulation rules are built in the paper. Finally, a case study of the LRU repair of an aircraft is conducted, and the result confirms the validation and feasibility of all the studies, which can become a new technique means for maintainability engineering.

Rehydration Process

Abstract Fluid-preserved specimens in collections persist only as long as their preservative is maintained. When preservatives evaporate due to neglect or container malfunction, collection managers are often forced to discard the specimens. Subjecting specimens to a rehydration process can be both time consuming and hazardous. A recent development in vertebrate specimen rehydration that mitigates these hazards and is relatively simple to conduct is discussed. Through the use of concentrated water vapor, and gradual staging in various concentrations of preservative, dehydrated museum specimens can be rehydrated. Similar techniques have been applied to invertebrates for decades, and more recently to herpetofauna. Herein a new technique is applied to both fishes and mammals and its efficacy for most other groups is indicated.
