Distributed System Development in B

Michael J. Butler, Marina Waldén • ePrints Soton (University of Southampton) (1996)

The B-Method is a method for the stepwise derivation of sequential programs. In this paper we show how the B-Method can be used for designing distributed systems by embedding action systems within this method. The action system formalism is...

Hyperbolic Neural Networks

Octavian-Eugen Ganea, Gary Bécigneul, Thomas Hofmann • arXiv (Cornell University) (2018)

Hyperbolic spaces have recently gained momentum in the context of machine learning due to their high capacity and tree-likeliness properties. However, the representational power of hyperbolic geometry is not yet on par with Euclidean geomet...

The Balanced Opioid Initiative: protocol for a clustered, sequential, multiple-assignment randomized trial to construct an adaptive implementation strategy to improve guideline-concordant opioid prescribing in primary care

Andrew Quanbeck, Daniel Almirall, Nora Jacobson, Randall T. Brown et al. • Implementation Science (2020)

Abstract Background Rates of opioid prescribing tripled in the USA between 1999 and 2015 and were associated with significant increases in opioid misuse and overdose death. Roughly half of all opioids are prescribed in primary care. Althoug...
