The elliptic, v2, triangular, v3, and quadrangular, v4, azimuthal anisotropic flow coefficients are measured for unidentified charged particles, pions, and (anti-)protons in Pb–Pb collisions at √sNN=2.76 TeV with the ALICE detector at the Large Hadron Collider. Results obtained with the event plane and four-particle cumulant methods are reported for the pseudo-rapidity range |η|<0.8 at different collision centralities and as a function of transverse momentum, pT, out to pT=20 GeV/c. The observed non-zero elliptic and triangular flow depends only weakly on transverse momentum for pT>8 GeV/c. The small pT dependence of the difference between elliptic flow results obtained from the event plane and four-particle cumulant methods suggests a common origin of flow fluctuations up to pT=8 GeV/c. The magnitude of the (anti-)proton elliptic and triangular flow is larger than that of pions out to at least pT=8 GeV/c indicating that the particle type dependence persists out to high pT.
The production cross section of electrons from semileptonic decays of beauty hadrons was measured at mid-rapidity (|y|<0.8) in the transverse momentum range 1<pT<8 GeV/c with the ALICE experiment at the CERN LHC in pp collisions at a center of mass energy √s=7 TeV using an integrated luminosity of 2.2 nb−1. Electrons from beauty hadron decays were selected based on the displacement of the decay vertex from the collision vertex. A perturbative QCD calculation agrees with the measurement within uncertainties. The data were extrapolated to the full phase space to determine the total cross section for the production of beauty quark–antiquark pairs.
The inclusive transverse momentum (pT) distributions of primary charged particles are measured in the pseudo-rapidity range |η|<0.8 as a function of event centrality in Pb–Pb collisions at √sNN=2.76 TeV with ALICE at the LHC. The data are presented in the pT range 0.15<pT<50 GeV/c for nine centrality intervals from 70–80% to 0–5%. The results in Pb–Pb are presented in terms of the nuclear modification factor RAA using a pp reference spectrum measured at the same collision energy. We observe that the suppression of high-pT particles strongly depends on event centrality. The yield is most suppressed in central collisions (0–5%) with RAA≈0.13 at pT=6–7 GeV/c. Above pT=7 GeV/c, there is a significant rise in the nuclear modification factor, which reaches RAA≈0.4 for pT>30 GeV/c. In peripheral collisions (70–80%), only moderate suppression (RAA=0.6–0.7) and a weak pT dependence is observed. The measured nuclear modification factors are compared to other measurements and model calculations.
Long-range angular correlations on the near and away side in p–Pb collisions at √sNN=5.02 TeV
(2013)
Angular correlations between charged trigger and associated particles are measured by the ALICE detector in p–Pb collisions at a nucleon–nucleon centre-of-mass energy of 5.02 TeV for transverse momentum ranges within 0.5<pT,assoc<pT,trig<4 GeV/c. The correlations are measured over two units of pseudorapidity and full azimuthal angle in different intervals of event multiplicity, and expressed as associated yield per trigger particle. Two long-range ridge-like structures, one on the near side and one on the away side, are observed when the per-trigger yield obtained in low-multiplicity events is subtracted from the one in high-multiplicity events. The excess on the near-side is qualitatively similar to that recently reported by the CMS Collaboration, while the excess on the away-side is reported for the first time. The two-ridge structure projected onto azimuthal angle is quantified with the second and third Fourier coefficients as well as by near-side and away-side yields and widths. The yields on the near side and on the away side are equal within the uncertainties for all studied event multiplicity and pT bins, and the widths show no significant evolution with event multiplicity or pT. These findings suggest that the near-side ridge is accompanied by an essentially identical away-side ridge.
Exhaustive, automatic testing of dataflow (esp. mapreduce) programs has emerged as an important challenge. Past work demonstrated effective ways to generate small example data sets that exercise operators in the Pig platform, used to generate Hadoop map-reduce programs. Although such prior techniques attempt to cover all cases of operator use, in practice they often fail. Our SEDGE system addresses these completeness problems: for every dataflow operator, we produce data aiming to cover all cases that arise in the dataflow program (e.g., both passing and failing a filter). SEDGE relies on transforming the program into symbolic constraints, and solving the constraints using a symbolic reasoning engine (a powerful SMT solver), while using input data as concrete aids in the solution process. The approach resembles dynamic-symbolic (a.k.a. "concolic") execution in a conventional programming language, adapted to the unique features of the dataflow domain.
In third-party benchmarks, SEDGE achieves higher coverage than past techniques for 5 out of 20 PigMix benchmarks and 7 out of 11 SDSS benchmarks and (with equal coverage for the rest of the benchmarks). We also show that our targeting of the high-level dataflow language pays off: for complex programs, state-of-the-art dynamic-symbolic execution at the level of the generated map-reduce code (instead of the original dataflow program) requires many more test cases or achieves much lower coverage than our approach.
Die folgende Bachelorarbeit beschäftigt sich mit dem Thema des Displacement-Mappings unter Verwendung eines Tessellation-Shaders. Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es, ein Programm zu entwerfen, welches einen visuellen Einblick in die Tessellation und in das Displacement-Mapping bietet. Des Weiteren soll die Leistung der Tessellation mit der des Geometry-Shaders und einem QuadTree-Verfahren verglichen werden.
Dazu wird zuerst beschrieben, welche Umgebung zur Implementierung verwendet wurde. Anschließend werden zunächst einige geläufige Mappingverfahren betrachtet. Im nächsten Abschnitt wird dann auf die Tessellation und das Displacement-Mapping in Bezug auf Funktionsweise und Implementierung eingegangen. Es folgt ein Vergleich der Performance der unterschiedlichen Mapping-Verfahren untereinander. In einem weiteren Vergleich wird die Performance der Tessellation (mit Displacement-Mapping) mit einem Geometry-Shader und einem QuadTree-Verfahren anhand eines Terrains durchgeführt. Abschließend erfolgt die Beschreibung des Programms.
In der heutigen Zeit werden viele Anwendungen als Webanwendungen entwickelt, weil man sie schneller auf den Markt werfen kann. Neue Methoden wurden entwickelt um den Softwareentwicklungsprozess zu verschlanken, um damit noch schneller und öfter eine Produkt auf den Markt zu bringen. Diese Methoden erschweren die Arbeit von manuellen Tester ungemein. Sie müssen jetzt noch schneller und noch öfter testen.
Um dieser Miesere entgegenzuwirken wurden Testautomatisierungsmechanismen und Testautomatisierungswerkzeuge entwickelt. In dieser Arbeit wollte ich zeigen, dass Testautomatisierung in bestehenden Projekten nachträglich noch eingefügt werden kann. Und das diese für eine verbesserte Qualität des Produktes sorgen kann.
Ich habe in dieser Arbeit den Testfallkatalog für das Produkt „Email4Tablet“ der Firma Deutsche Telekom AG zu 70% mit dem Testwerkzeug Selenium automatisiert.
