Code coverage consists of a set of software metrics that can tell you how much of the production code is covered by a given test suite. It's purely quantitative, and does not say anything about the quality of either the production code or the test code. That said, the examination of code coverage reports will sometimes lead to the discovery of unreachable code which can be eliminated. But more importantly, such reports can be used as a guide for the discovery of missing tests. This is not only useful when creating tests for existing production code, but also when writing tests first, such as in the practice of TDD (Test Driven Development).
JMockit Coverage provides two different and complementary code coverage metrics: line coverage and path coverage. An example coverage report showing both metrics can be found here.
The line coverage metric tells us how much of the executable code in a source file has been exercised by tests. Each executable line of code can be uncovered, covered, or partially covered. In the first case, none of the executable code in it was executed at all. In the second, all of the code was fully executed at least once. In the third case, only part of the executable code in the line was executed. This can happen, for example, with lines of code containing multiple logical conditions in a complex boolean expression. JMockit Coverage identifies all three cases, computing the coverage percentage for each executable line of code accordingly: 0% for an uncovered line, 100% for a covered line, or some value in between for a partially covered line.
A branching point exists wherever the program makes a decision between two possible execution paths to follow. Any line of code containing a logical condition will be divided in at least two executable segments, each belonging to a separate branch. An executable line of source code with no branching points contains a single segment. Lines with one or more branching points contain two or more executable segments, separated by consecutive branching points in the line.
Lets say that NS >= 1
is the number of executable segments on a given line.
If NE
is the number of segments in that line which were executed at
least once during a test run (ie, they are covered segments), then we can calculate the
coverage percentage for the line as 100 * NE / NS
.
Similarly, the line coverage percentage for a whole source file is calculated from the total number of executable segments and the total number of covered segments, considering all executable lines of code in the file. The percentage for a package, in turn, is calculated from the total and covered numbers of segments in the whole set of source files belonging to the package. Finally, the total code coverage percentage is computed by the same formula on the totals for all packages.
A completely different metric is path coverage, which is computed for method and constructor bodies, not for lines or segments of code. It tells us how many of the possible execution paths through a method or constructor, from entry to exit, have been executed at least once during the test run.
Note that each method or constructor has a single point of entry, but can have multiple exits.
An exit occurs when a return
or throw
statement is executed.
These are normal exits, of course. A method/constructor execution can also terminate
abruptly, by propagating an exception (or error) thrown as a result of a method call,
an attempt to access a null
reference, or some other action which caused an
unintended program failure.
Each possible path can be either fully executed (covered) or not (uncovered). Paths that execute only partially (ie, they were terminated abruptly) are simply considered as uncovered.
The path coverage percentage for a method or constructor body is computed in a way
similar to the line coverage computation.
If NP
is the number of possible paths through the implementation
body and NPE
is the number of paths executed from entry to exit,
then the metric is computed as 100 * NPE / NP
.
Also in the same way as the line coverage metric, we extend this formula to the whole source
file, the whole package, and the whole set of packages touched by the test run.
The JMockit Coverage tool can generate the following types of output:
When running a test suite with the coverage tool, there is optional "call point" information which can be gathered, as selected by the user. A call point is the point in the source test code from which an specific line of production code was exercised. Note that generating coverage with this extra information takes more time and produces significantly larger output. On the other hand, it can be useful to know which lines of test code caused a given line of production code to be executed during the test run. The XHTML report makes this information easily viewable, though hiding it at first.
First of all, to enable the JMockit Coverage tool at least one of several coverage jars
needs to be added to the classpath.
The main jar file, which contains all of the tool implementation code, is
jmockit-coverage.jar
.
Adding any of the other jmockit-coverage-xyz.jar
files to the classpath will result
in having this one added implicitly (provided all jars are available in the same installation
directory).
Whatever the coverage jar(s) used, jmockit.jar
(or a versioned jar obtained from the
Maven repository) does not need to be added to
the classpath, unless of course the suite contains tests which use the JMockit mocking APIs (it will also be
implicitly added to the classpath).
That said, it may be necessary to use the -javaagent:jmockit.jar
JVM parameter
so that JMockit gets properly initialized at start-up. It is possible to avoid the use of this JVM
parameter, depending on a few conditions. See this page for details.
Apart from enabling JMockit Coverage for a given test run, there are five aspects of the tool's behavior which can optionally be configured for the test run:
To select the desired output format(s) to be generated for a test run, add one or more of the following jar files to the classpath:
jmockit-coverage-htmlbasic.jar
:
generates an XHTML report without call points.
jmockit-coverage-htmlfull.jar
:
generates an XHTML report with call points.
jmockit-coverage-serial.jar
:
generates a serialized data file of name "coverage.ser".
jmockit-coverage-merge.jar
:
generates the same serialized data file, but after merging the coverage data gathered
by the current test run with an existing "coverage.ser" file (if any is found in the working
dir - otherwise has the same effect as jmockit-coverage-serial.jar
).
The "htmlbasic" and "htmlfull" jars are mutually exclusive, just like "serial" and "merge" are. However, it is valid to have one of each pair in the classpath at the same time. In such a case, at the end of the test run both a "coverage.ser" file and a "coverage-report" directory (unless another is specified) will be written.
Each one of these output specification jars is empty except for the standard
META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
file.
Still, they depend on jmockit-coverage.jar
and this is specified
through the Class-Path
property inside MANIFEST.MF
.
Consequently, if this last jar file is available in the same directory then it does not need to
be explicitly added to the classpath; otherwise, it (or an equivalent jar from the Maven
repository) will need to be added.
If none of the output specification jars is added to the classpath, but
jmockit-coverage.jar
is, then the "htmlbasic" report will be generated.
To have control over all aspects of the code coverage tool, set one or more
system properties for the JVM instance that will run the test suite.
Note that you should be able to do this inside an Ant target, a Maven surefire
plugin configuration, or a test run configuration for your Java IDE of choice, using either
JUnit or TestNG.
The available system properties, all prefixed with "jmockit-coverage-", are:
jmockit-coverage-output
: one or more comma-separated values
between html
, html-nocp
,
serial
, and merge
.
The "nocp" suffix stands for "no call points".
The use of this system property takes precedence over the presence of coverage jars in the
classpath.
jmockit-coverage-outputDir
: absolute or relative path to the
output directory, to be used for writing any "coverage.ser" or "index.html" files (plus the
remaining ".html" files of the XHTML report, in automatically created sub-directories).
jmockit-coverage-srcDirs
: comma-separated list of Java source
directories to be searched when generating an XHTML report.
Each directory is specified by an absolute or relative path.
jmockit-coverage-classes
:
a java.util.regex
-conformable regular expression which will be used to select
the classes from production code which are considered for coverage.
jmockit-coverage-excludes
:
a java.util.regex
-conformable regular expression for class names which should be
excluded from consideration when deciding which classes will be modified to gather coverage.
This property can be used together with jmockit-coverage-classes
or on its own.
jmockit-coverage-metrics
:
one or more comma-separated words between line
,
path
, data
, and
all
(the default).
The class selection regular expressions should specify the fully qualified names of classes in
production code for which coverage is desired.
For example, "orderMngr\.domain\..+" selects all classes in the orderMngr.domain
package as well as in any sub-packages.
Suppose you have multiple test run configurations (in separate Ant targets, for example), and you want to generate a single XHTML report for the code covered by the full set of tests. Normally, when JMockit Coverage generates a report at the end of a test run, it overwrites any previous report that may have been generated in the same output directory. So, instead of getting a merged report as desired, you would end up with the report for the last test run only (assuming all test runs used the same working dir). Here is where the serialized data files ("coverage.ser" files generated in the same or in different output directories) come in.
As seen in other sections, we activate the generation of this file by either adding
jmockit-coverage-serial.jar
or jmockit-coverage-merge.jar
to the
classpath, or by setting the jmockit-coverage-output
system property.
There are different ways to use the merging of multiple coverage data files. The following sub-sections provide the details for each use case.
Lets say you have multiple test run configurations (for example, multiple junit
or
testng
tasks in the same Ant target) to be executed at once, and want to produce a
single aggregate coverage report for the full set of tests. That is, you don't want to produce a
separate report for each individual test run.
The easiest way to achieve this is to use the same working directory for all test runs, with
jmockit-coverage-merge.jar
in the classpath or with
jmockit-coverage-output=merge
specified as a system property for each test run
configuration. Since the XHTML report is only desired at the end, the last test run configuration
in the sequence should either have the appropriate coverage jar in the classpath or add the
appropriate value to the jmockit-coverage-output
property.
The "coverage.ser" file will be shared between all test runs. The first test run must
not read data from this file, therefore it should either be deleted or ignored by the
first test run by using jmockit-coverage-serial.jar
or
jmockit-coverage-output=serial
instead.
Suppose you want to generate a separate coverage report for each test run configuration
and also an aggregate report merging together the results from all test runs.
In this case we would have n
test runs but n + 1
coverage reports.
Only one XHTML report can be produced from a single test run, so an extra step which doesn't
execute any tests is necessary.
In order to preserve the original coverage.ser
output files generated by each test
run, they will need to be written or copied into different output directories.
Assuming that two or more coverage.ser
files are available in separate directories,
an aggregate report can be generated from them by executing the
mockit.coverage.CodeCoverage.main
method (a regular Java "main" method).
To facilitate this, the jmockit-coverage-htmlbasic.jar
and
jmockit-coverage-htmlfull.jar
files are executable.
Using Ant, the following task could be used:
<java
fork="yes" dir="myBaseDir" jar="jmockit-coverage-htmlfull.jar"
args="module1-outDir,anotherOutDir"/>
The example above uses "myBaseDir" as the base directory where a separate JVM instance will run. Two output directories containing "coverage.ser" data files are specified, separated by commas, as the first command line argument. Other configuration parameters can be specified through the "jmockit-coverage-xyz" system properties. This separate JVM instance will read each of the "coverage.ser" data files, merge the coverage data in memory, and then generate the aggregate XHTML report before exiting.
If you run tests with the "test" Maven goal, then you will need the following dependency in pom.xml
:
<dependency>
<groupId>mockit</groupId>
<artifactId>jmockit-coverage</artifactId>
<version>0.999.5</version>
<scope>runtime</scope>
</dependency>
Notice that it will probably be useful to define a property for the JMockit version in use:
<properties>
<jmockit.version>0.999.9</jmockit.version>
</properties>
In Maven 2, the surefire
plugin is the one usually responsible for actually running tests.
To configure the coverage tool, specify values for the appropriate "jmockit-coverage-xyz" system
properties. For example, the output directory for generated files can be specified through the
jmockit-coverage-outputDir
property.
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<!-- uncomment this if needed
<argLine>
-javaagent:"${settings.localRepository}"/mockit/jmockit/${jmockit.version}/jmockit-${jmockit.version}.jar
</argLine>
-->
<systemProperties>
<property>
<name>jmockit-coverage-outputDir</name><value>target/my-coverage-report</value>
</property>
<!-- other "jmockit-coverage" properties... -->
</systemProperties>
</configuration>
</plugin>
If the tests are run in a Java SE 5 JVM, or if for whatever reason JMockit cannot be
automatically initialized when running on Java SE 6 (typically, when using the IBM or Apple
JDKs), then the -javaagent
JVM parameter should be used as shown above.
To facilitate switching on/off the generation of code coverage output, the read-only status of the relevant file is checked by JMockit at startup. The relevant file, always in the working directory, is "coverage.ser" for serialized output and "coverage-report/index.html" for XHTML output. (Note that the working directory can usually be selected separately for each test run configuration in the Java IDE.) If said file is currently marked as read-only in the OS, then the corresponding output is not generated for the next test run.
Notice that a Java IDE usually provides an easy mechanism to toggle the read-only status of a project file. In IntelliJ IDEA it is done by double clicking the status bar, with the desired file opened in the editor. In Eclipse there is a "Read only" check box in the "Properties" screen for the text file selected in the editor; this screen can be opened by typing "Alt + Enter".
jmockit-tools
system property
Another way to switch coverage on/off is to use the jmockit-tools
system property, which can specify the "startup tools", between those available in the classpath
(if any), to be loaded by JMockit at startup.
For the coverage tool, the word "coverage" must be present in the value
specified for the property (which can contain two or more tool names separated by commas).

Tangy liquorice gives these salted caramels a quirky edge. The caramels only take 30 minutes to make but need to set overnight.
Equipment and preparation: for this recipe you will need a sugar thermometer.
Grease a 20cm/8in square baking tin with groundnut oil, then line with baking paper and grease again.
Place the butter in a deep, heavy-bottomed pan with the sugar, condensed milk and golden syrup. Heat over the lowest heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon to dissolve the sugar.
Put a sugar thermometer in the pan and increase the heat slightly to bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Cook, stirring constantly until the temperature reaches 118C/245F. (CAUTION: boiling sugar is extremely hot. Handle very carefully. Use a deep pan to avoid bubbling over.)
Take the pan off the heat and use a wooden spoon to stir in a generous pinch of rock salt, the liquorice powder and black food colouring. Beat the mixture well until the black paste colours it completely.
Pour the caramel into the prepared tin and scatter with rock salt. Leave to cool for one hour, then place in the fridge. Leave overnight before cutting into squares. Wrap each square in a piece of parchment paper.
Enjoy with a coffee or give to your friends as a gift.

| Class | ActiveRecord::ConnectionAdapters::ConnectionPool |
| In: |
/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-3.0.0.beta4/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_pool.rb
|
| Parent: | Object |
Connection pool base class for managing ActiveRecord database connections.
A connection pool synchronizes thread access to a limited number of database connections. The basic idea is that each thread checks out a database connection from the pool, uses that connection, and checks the connection back in. ConnectionPool is completely thread-safe, and will ensure that a connection cannot be used by two threads at the same time, as long as ConnectionPool‘s contract is correctly followed. It will also handle cases in which there are more threads than connections: if all connections have been checked out, and a thread tries to checkout a connection anyway, then ConnectionPool will wait until some other thread has checked in a connection.
Connections can be obtained and used from a connection pool in several ways:
Connections in the pool are actually AbstractAdapter objects (or objects compatible with AbstractAdapter‘s interface).
There are two connection-pooling-related options that you can add to your database connection configuration:
| connections | [R] | |
| spec | [R] |
Creates a new ConnectionPool object. spec is a ConnectionSpecification object which describes database connection information (e.g. adapter, host name, username, password, etc), as well as the maximum size for this ConnectionPool.
The default ConnectionPool maximum size is 5.
# File /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-3.0.0.beta4/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_pool.rb, line 67 67: def initialize(spec) 68: @spec = spec 69: 70: # The cache of reserved connections mapped to threads 71: @reserved_connections = {} 72: 73: # The mutex used to synchronize pool access 74: @connection_mutex = Monitor.new 75: @queue = @connection_mutex.new_cond 76: 77: # default 5 second timeout unless on ruby 1.9 78: @timeout = 79: if RUBY_VERSION < '1.9' 80: spec.config[:wait_timeout] || 5 81: end 82: 83: # default max pool size to 5 84: @size = (spec.config[:pool] && spec.config[:pool].to_i) || 5 85: 86: @connections = [] 87: @checked_out = [] 88: end
Check-in a database connection back into the pool, indicating that you no longer need this connection.
conn: an AbstractAdapter object, which was obtained by earlier by calling checkout on this pool.

Check-out a database connection from the pool, indicating that you want to use it. You should call checkin when you no longer need this.
This is done by either returning an existing connection, or by creating a new connection. If the maximum number of connections for this pool has already been reached, but the pool is empty (i.e. they‘re all being used), then this method will wait until a thread has checked in a connection. The wait time is bounded however: if no connection can be checked out within the timeout specified for this pool, then a ConnectionTimeoutError exception will be raised.
Returns: an AbstractAdapter object.

Five alarm fire forces evacuation of Toronto highrise apartment building
by The Canadian PressTORONTO — A highrise apartment building in north Toronto had to be evacuated after it was badly damaged by a five-alarm fire that erupted Friday afternoon and quickly spread to several floors.
About 100 firefighters and 22 trucks raced to the scene as flames and smoke belched from the building.
Some terrified tenants went out on their balconies where witnesses say they could be heard screaming for help.
Toronto Fire Chief Matthew Pegg said several people were rescued, and that at least one was taken to hospital where they were listed in stable condition.
Transit buses were brought to the scene in North York to shelter many of the tenants.
Chief Pegg later tweeted that the building’s electricity was being disconnected and all the tenants evacuated for safety reasons.
He said emergency shelter plans were being organized for those needing assistance.
There was no immediate word on the cause of the fire.
This report from The Canadian Press was first published Nov. 16, 2019.

- A local radio show offered a 12-year-old Elvis a chance to sing live on air, but he was too shy to go on
- At 18, Elvis paid $4 to make his first record, a gift for his mama
- In 1954, Elvis autioned for a gospel quartet, which turned him down

Elvis Aaron Presley was an American singer, dancer and actor. He was often referred to as the "King of Rock and Roll" or simply "the King".
His music career began there in 1954. Presley was an early popularizer of rockabilly, an uptempo, backbeat-driven fusion of country music and rhythm and blues. His energized interpretations of songs and sexually provocative performance style, combined with a singularly potent mix of influences across color lines that coincided with the dawn of the Civil Rights Movement, made him enormously popular—and controversial.
Presley is one of the most celebrated and influential musicians of the 20th century. Commercially successful in many genres, including pop, blues and gospel, he is one of the best-selling artists in the history of recorded music, with estimated record sales of around 600 million units worldwide. He won three Grammys, also receiving the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award at age 36, and has been inducted into multiple music halls of fame.

Paul M. Fitts modeled human psychomotor behavior by describing the phenomena of variability of a response as a function of response duration using information theory concepts. He introduced an index of difficulty of a movement which relates average values for amplitude, duration and variability of successive movements [1]. He proposed a speed-accuracy trade-off using a principle of motor control where activities done quicker can be less accurate than those activities done slower.
For a brief explanation of Fitts' Law see below.
For a more detailed explanation and sample experimental results, click here.
Please select values for the following parameters and click Begin.
ISO 9241-9 establishes uniform guidelines and testing procedures for evaluating computer pointing devices. The metric for comparison is Throughput, in bits per second (bits/s), which includes both the speed and accuracy of users' performance. The equation for throughput is Fitts’ Index of Performance except using an effective index of difficulty (ID). Specifically,
Throughput = ID / MT (1)
where MT is the mean movement time, in seconds, for all trials within the same condition, and
ID = log2(D / W + 1) (2)
ID, in bits, is calculated from D, the distance to the target, and W, the effective width of the target. W is calculated as
W = 4.133 × SD (3)
where SD is the standard deviation of the end-point positions using observed end-point scatter data. Using effective width allows throughput to incorporate the spatial variability in human performance. It includes both speed and accuracy [1].

R for trial and model-based cost-effectiveness analysis
One-day Workshop
11 July 2018, University College London
Background and objectives
This one-day workshop on the use of R for trial and model-based cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) is jointly organised by a consortium of researchers at various institutions ( UCL, University of York, University of Oxford and Bangor University), led by the MRC Hubs for Trials and Methodology and Research Conduct-II. The Scientific Committee include: Howard Thom, Gianluca Baio, Anthony Hatswell, Dyfrig Hughes, Chris Jackson, Marta Soares, Claire Williams, Nicky Welton, Padraig Dixon, Boby Mihaylova and Iryna Schlackow.
Funding for the workshop has been provided by the MRC Network of Hubs for Trials Methodology Research and the UCL Research Group Statistics for Health Economics.
CEA is often performed using MS Excel but, despite its ease of use, MS Excel incurs the disadvantages of slow computational speed and a lack of transparency; our workshop aims to explore the use of R for CEA as an alternative. The aim of the workshop is to present a wide range of technical aspects, including a discussion of the many available add-on packages to help users get the most out of R for CEA. Presentations and public discussions address the computational and transparency advantages of R over MS Excel for CEA and for easing collaboration. The speakers have diverse experience in government (including
NICE), academia and industry.
Final Programme
Session 1: Invited talks (1) - chair: Anthony Hatswell
- 9:30-9:45. Howard Thom, University of Bristol. Welcome.
- 9:45-10:15. Gianluca Baio. Department of Statistical Science, University College London. R you seriously saying we shouldn't use Excel?
This talk will showcase some of the R packages recently developed to aid the work of modellers working in health economic evaluations. The motivation and general philosophy of a few packages will be briefly presented. Examples of their use/advantages over more established, but often non-optimal computational tools, such as MS Excel will be demonstrated. Link to relevant [web-applications](https://egon.stats.ucl.ac.uk/projects/).
- 10:15-10:35. Marta Soares. Centre for Health Economics, University of York. Using R for Markov modelling: an introduction.
This talk introduces the use of R for generic decision modelling detailing some of the advantages and disadvantages of this software package in relation to others commonly used, such as MS Excel. In this talk, I also present generic R code for Markov modelling, probabilistic sensitivity analyses and value of information analyses (using Monte Carlo simulation). R code for [deterministic](Rcode_deterministic.R) and [probabilistic](Rcode_probabilistic.R) analysis.
- 10:35-11:15. Boby Mihaylova and Iryna Schlackow. Health Economics Research Centre, Nuffield Department of Public Health, University of Oxford. A policy model of cardiovascular disease in moderate-to-advanced chronic kidney disease.
This talk will present the design and structure in R of the SHARP CKD-CVD model, developed using the 5-years follow-up data of 10,000 patients with chronic kidney disease in the SHARP study. The model projects chronic kidney disease progression and cardiovascular complications and mortality using a set of multivariate risk, cost and QoL equations. We will demonstrate the R Shiny-based model interface to enable use by external analysts and will discuss issues related to model functionality and speed of~execution. [Paper](https://heart.bmj.com/content/early/2017/08/03/heartjnl-2016-310970) describing the model; model [interface](http://dismod.ndph.ox.ac.uk/kidneymodel/app/).
- 11:15-11:35. Coffee break.
Session 2: Participants oral presentation session (3 speakers, 15 minutes each) - chair: Marta Soares
- 11:35-11:55. Jeroen Jansen, Innovation and Value Initiative. An open-source cost-effectiveness simulation model for rheumatoid arthritis in R.
As part of the Open Source Value Project (OSVP), we developed a flexible open-source individual patient simulation model for rheumatoid arthritis (IVI-RA model). Alternative biologic treatment sequences, parameter and structural uncertainty, and decision framework (i.e.~cost-effectiveness of multi-criteria decision analysis) can be easily explored. The model facilitates dialogue between stakeholders about relevant clinical data, modelling approaches, and value perspectives. R and C++ code is available in a GitHub repository, along with Shiny server user interfaces for a non-technical audience.
- 11:55-12:15. Eline Krijkamp, Erasmus MC. Introducing the Decision Analysis in R for Technologies in Health (DARTH) initiative.
This talk will present an introduction to the tools and educational materials created by the [DARTH](http://darthworkgroup.com/) (Decision Analysis in R for Technologies in Health) collaboration. DARTH is a multi-institutional, multi-university effort aiming to develop transparent and open-source solutions to decision analysis in health. DARTH courses and tutorial papers cover diverse applications of R in health decision sciences, including decision trees, cohort models, and microsimulations. DARTH have also created OpenTree, an online graphical user interface for building decision trees and Markov models than can output code to R.
- 12:15-12:30. Dyfrig Hughes. Centre for Health Economics & Medicines Evaluation, Bangor University. Health technology assessors’ perspectives on R.
This session will present the perspectives of members of NICE evidence review groups, AWMSG secretariat and SMC independent assessors on sponsor submissions using R. The skill requirements, confidence and expertise of these groups in using R will also be discussed.
- 12:30-13:30. Lunch.
Session 3: Invited talks (2) - chair: Boby Mihaylova
- 13:30-13:50. Howard Thom, University of Bristol. Value of information analysis in R.
This session will cover the methods for value of information analysis that can be implemented in R, including linearization, brute force Monte Carlo simulation, parallel computing, meta-modelling, multilevel Monte Carlo and quasi Monte Carlo.
- 13:50-14:10. Chris Jackson. Medical Research Council Biostatistics Unit, University of Cambridge. Continuous-time multi-state models for disease progression.
This session will introduce the theory of modelling disease progression as a continuous-time multi-state process, and how this can be used in cost-effectiveness analysis. R software for continuous-time modelling of various patterns of observed data will be discussed.
- 14:10-14:30. Claire Williams. Bristol Medical School: Population Health Sciences, University of Bristol. An overview of a suite of code and functions for CEA in R using continuous-time multi-state modelling.
This session will give a brief snapshot of the code already available in a tutorial paper detailing how to carry out Markov and semi-Markov modelling using the continuous-time multi-state modelling survival analysis framework. It will include how to carry out deterministic and probabilistic sensitivity analysis and appropriate graphical outputs.
- 14:30-14:50. Coffee break
Session 4: Discussion - chair: Gianluca Baio
- 14:50-15:05. Anthony Hatswell. Delta Hat Analytics; Department of Statistical Science, University College London. Existing frameworks for collaborative working.
This session will outline various ways of working currently used in collaborative efforts in the health economics and connected spheres. The pros and cons of each approach will be outlines, and how the use of R may be promoted under each of the scenarios.
- 15:05-16:20. Participant discussion.
- 16:20-16:30. Howard Thom. Close and conclusions.

Matisse
Matisse is an image retrieval and caching library for iOS inspired by Picasso.
Examples
With Matisse you can download and display an image in an image view with a single line:
Matisse.load(imageURL).showIn(imageView)
Or in Objective-C:
[MTSMatisse load:imageURL].showIn(imageView);
This automatically takes care of downloading, caching and showing the image
in the view. If you use this code in a UITableViewDataSource
it also makes
sure that the correct image is shown even in case of a cell reuse.
If you want to resize the image to fit the image view (generally a good idea) you can do so too:
Matisse.load(imageURL).resizeTo(myImageSize).showIn(imageView)
If you just need the image, without loading it into a view, then you can fetch it like this:
Matisse.load(imageURL).resizeTo(myImageSize).fetch { request, image, error in
if let fetchedImage = image {
// do something with the image
} else {
// handle the error
}
}
Installation
TBD (Cocoapods)


In this assignment you will implement unit tests and deploy your web application.
Write Jasmine unit tests for your JavaScript functionality. We want to test as much code as possible. Write a Karma configuration to test your site using Chrome. Try to maximize your testing code coverage.
Use Protractor and write an end-to-end test for your web application. Use the python SimpleHTTPServer / http.server to host your web page locally and have Protractor run against it. The required tasks for your end-to-end test are listed in the requirements below.
In the previous assignment we integrated our front-end web application with a back-end server. But our application only runs on our local host. Now we want to deploy our application to the cloud. We will be using Heroku because of their free tier and overall simplicity in usage.
First you will need to sign up for an account. They require a credit card, but so long as you stay in the free tier they will not charge you. After you have an account and are signed in you need to download the Heroku Toolbelt. If you do not already have a Git client installed, they bundle one for you. We use Git to talk to Heroku.
In class we had created a fresh node project. Separations of concerns instructs us to divide our application into separate front and back end processes. In this way our application is modular, can be selectively scaled, and we have indepdence to change each at their own pace. In this assignment we will separately host our front-end and back-end applications on Heroku.
You will need to be logged in to Heroku to proceed:
heroku login
To deploy your front-end start by navigating to your app directory. I called mine RiceBookApp.
If you have been using git already, then you can ignore the first command. Do the following, and note
that the application name, ricebookapp
, should be omitted or you can supply a name for your app upfront
cd RiceBookApp git init heroku create ricebookapp echo "web: bin/start-nginx -f" > Procfile git add Procfile index.html app lib css git commit -m 'initial commit' heroku buildpacks:set https://github.com/skotep/nginx-buildpack.git git push heroku master
Now your app is hosted and running on Heroku. Navigate to, e.g., https://ricebookapp.herokuapp.com to see it.
What did these steps do? We started by creating a new git repository. We then created a new Heroku application that was tied to it. (The order of these operations matters because if you create the Heroku app first then it will not be attached to the git repo. If you did this, then to fix it execute heroku git:remote -a ricebookapp
) Next we defined the command that Heroku will execute to start our application. Notice that it executes "start-nginx" which implies we have an Nginx server running that will surface
our (static) front-end application. Next we add all of the importat files to the git repo (I assume your app is laid out like mine. If it isn't, then you'll need to adjust this execution accordingly). We commit the changes. We then tell Heroku that we'll be using Nginx for our application (as opposed to node, ruby, python, etc). Finally we push to the remote Heroku git master. Heroku builds our application and spins up the Nginx server.
In class #18 we began creating a NodeJS server. In case you missed it or did not get it completed, here are the commands again to set it up. We will have the front-end and back-end separated therefore we have a new directory and a new project. If you already have completed the following you can skip to the next part.
For the "npm init" call below,
the defaults are in general fine, i.e., just press enter a lot
init creates for us a packages.json file which will be the
configuration for our node application. Given that we want a
MEAN application,
we install express and we'll use body-parse middleware to make things easier for us.
The --save flag in "npm install" adds these dependencies to our package.json file so when Heroku
builds our app it will grab these dependencies for us.
The final step below is to pull the example index.js
from the class website. Again,
if you already completed the in class exercise and have a working Node server, you can skip these steps.
mkdir RiceBookServer cd RiceBookServer npm init npm install express body-parser --save wget https://www.clear.rice.edu/comp431/sample/RiceBookServer/index.js
We can now run our Node application
node index.js
Test it out by navigating to http://localhost:8080 it should say "Hello World!". In the sample from the course site there is also the POST /post
endpoint. To test this you can either use a browser extension such as Advanced REST Client or Postman, or use curl on the commandline:
curl -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"Hello": "World" }' http://localhost:8080/post
The -H sets a header field: It tells the server we are going to send a JSON payload. The -d flag is the payload: Notice that we have formatted it as JSON because that's what we told the server we were going to do. If you don't do this correctly then it won't work correctly! If you look at index.js
you'll notice we use the middleware bodyParser.json()
which parses the JSON input and places the payload in the body
attribute of the request object (normally called req
).
Node is all about middleware. Middleware are functions inserted between the server and the endpoint handler that have three arguments, request, response, and a "pointer" to the next piece of middleware or endpoint. In index.js
we see examples of functions in the request-reponse pipeline with two arguments request and response. These are endpoints -- they do not have a next
function to pass on to. A middleware function might look like this:
function isLoggedIn(req, res, next) { var id = req.cookies['sessionId'] var hash = req.cookies['hash'] ... return next() }
To use this middleware we can either app.use(isLoggedIn)
"globally" on all of our endpoints (bearing in mind that app.use()
is applied in order) or on individual endpoints like this:
app.put('/logout', isLoggedIn, logout)
we can chain together as many pieces of middleware as we want.
In class #19 we deployed our back-end application. If you didn't do this yet, then follow the prescription below to create a git repo and a Heroku application. Note that we tell git not to add our node_modules
directory to the repo by adding it to the gitignore file (Heroku will automatically install these libraries for us because they are in our packages.json file).
git init heroku create ricebookserver echo "web: node index.js" > Procfile echo node_modules > .gitignore echo npm-debug.log >> .gitignore git add .gitignore Procfile package.json index.js git commit -m 'initial commit' git push heroku master
No need to set a buildpack this time, Heroku should automatically recognize that we have a NodeJS application.
We now have separate frontend and backend applications. Your frontend app is currently talking to my dummy server. Eventually we want it talking to your server. But there's a lot of work to get that done. We'll start simple with only post functionality.
In your server add a variable var posts = []
and add at least three hardcoded posts to the array. A post has the following schema:
var post = { id: int, author: string, body: string, date: new Date(), comments: [] }
Implement the following endpoints:
| endpoint | verb | request payload / response | description |
|---|---|---|---|
| /posts/:id | GET | res: { posts: [ { id: 1, author: Scott, ... }, { ... } ]} | If :id is set, then return the post that has id=:id -- if there is none, then return { posts: [] } , i.e., an empty array.
If :id is not set, then return an array of hardcoded posts. |
| /post | POST |
req: { body: message } res: { posts: [{ id: 5, author: "sep1", body: message, date: ..., comments: [] }] } |
The payload is JSON with a single field, body .
Given the supplied payload, add the author (yourself), an empty array for comments, the datetime the server received the request, and an id (which needs to increment with each additionally added post). Add this post to the array of hardcoded posts that are returned by GET /posts . Return this one new post (as the only element of the array posts) as the response. |
Check that your backend works by performming the following commands (either using curl as shown here or Advanced Rest Client or similar)
curl https://ricebookserver.herokuapp.com/posts # you should receieve 3 posts curl -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{ "body": "My first post!"  I assume the value is 12345, let's verify getById works: curl https://ricebookserver.herokuapp.com/posts/12345 # you should get your new post again curl https://ricebookserver.herokuapp.com/posts # you should get 4 posts now
We will use an automated test similiar to these commands to check the functionality of your backend.
We'll use jasmine-node
for running our unit tests.
Write unit tests for the two endpoints. There will be at least four unit tests:
GET /posts | Confirm at least 3 posts returned |
GET /posts/id | where id is a valid post id, confirm that only one post is returned and that it has the correct post id |
GET /posts/id | where is it not a valid post id, confirm that no posts are returned |
POST /post | assure that adding two posts will increment the post id accordingly. Validate the contents of each post |
To get XML test results, use the following command
./node_modules/.bin/jasmine-node --output test-results --junitreport app_server
Create a file README.json
that has contents similar to this (we will read this programmatically so please make sure you follow this style)
{ "netid": "sep1", "frontend": "https://ricebookapp.herokuapp.com", "backend": "https://ricebookserver.herokuapp.com" }
replace "ricebookapp" and "ricebookserver" with the names of your frontend and backend applications, and replace "sep1" with your netID.
Use Jasmine and Karma to test your frontend application.
Your end-to-end tests will run against your frontend web app running on your local python server. Here are the tasks for your end-to-end test
Include a JUnitXML report of your end-to-end test, i.e.,
e2e-results/junitresults.xml
README.json
that has your frontend and backend URLs along with netidGET /posts/
returns all posts, 3 hardcoded and any additional that are addedGET /posts/:id
returns the post with matching id if it exists, none otherwisePOST /post
adds a new post to the list of all posts. Returns the newly added posttest-results/TEST-ValidatePostFunctionality.xml
Your submission directory should look something like this

CRASH A film review by Scott Renshaw Copyright 1997 Scott Renshaw
(Fine Line) Starring: James Spader, Holly Hunter, Elias Koteas, Deborah Kara Unger, Rosanna Arquette. Screenplay: David Cronenberg, based on the novel by J. G. Ballard. Producer: David Cronenberg. Director: David Cronenberg.  Reviewed by Scott Renshaw.
In case you were wondering what all the consternation was about concerning CRASH -- the film which New Line chief Ted Turner nearly refused to release in America in a fit of moral outrage -- writer/director David Cronenberg makes it clear in the space of a few minutes.  In the third scene we learn that Unger and Spader are husband and wife Catherine and James Ballard, and that they have a habit of describing their affairs to each other in detail while having sex with each other.
That might be considered quite enough to get some folks worked into a lather, but, dear friends, you ain't seen nothin' yet. CRASH is really about what happens after James is responsible for an automobile accident which leaves him and another driver, Dr. Helen Remington (Holly Hunter) badly injured, and kills Dr. Remington's husband. While in the hospital, Helen and James are approached by Vaughan (Elias Koteas), a strange man obsessed with car crashes. Vaughan draws Helen and James into his unique world, which includes re-creating celebrity car crashes for spectators and keeping scrapbooks of accident scenes and injuries. This obsession takes on a sexual dimension as well, as confrontations with mortality turn into expressions of primal appetites.
I am sure that there are plenty of people who would find plenty of things inherently repugnant about CRASH, including the fundamental sex-violence link and the fifteen individual scenes involving some kind of sexual behavior between the main characters in every possible form and gender permutation. CRASH involves some unpleasant subject matter, but I certainly don't think it is evil. There are plenty of dark corners of the human psyche -- many of them dealing with sex -- and CRASH explores how people might respond to the adrenaline rush of a brush with death in a world where they ordinarily feel deadened, dehumanized and disconnected. The fetishizing of destruction into a sexual act is part of a progression for these characters; they are like addicts searching for a new high when the old one is no longer enough to make them feel anything.
It's challenging stuff Cronenberg is serving up, but the reason CRASH ultimately doesn't work has nothing to do with the fact that it's challenging. If a film-maker is going to take a chance on creating a world this alien, he has to give his audience someone with whom to identify, someone to be their surrogate and tour guide. That person should be James, but it's not.  The seductiveness of the crash cult needs to make sense to those of us who don't get off narrating our affairs to our wives, and Cronenberg doesn't make that happen. There is the briefest glimpse of an outsider's-eye-view when a car salesman assists James and another crash victim (Rosanna Arquette) in an erotic bit of showroom shopping, just enough to make you wish someone like that salesman had been for the previous hour. The relatively static nature of James' character also makes it evident that for all its excesses, CRASH lacks drama, a force pushing it towards some kind of revelation or resolution. Spader's performance as James is flat and detached throughout, and we need to have some understanding of his response to Vaughan's ever-more-extreme behavior; every development seems to strike him with the exact same mild confusion.
Some of Cronenberg's scenes are superbly crafted, effective and unsettling -- a tryst while going through a car wash is accompanied by overwhelming sounds of machinery, and one scene after a crash turns smoke from the wreckage into a romanticized mist over a meadow. Occasionally CRASH manages to be erotic, but far more often it is wearying, running sex scenes at you in waves and turning every available moment into an excuse for a grabbed crotch or a frantic menage-a-fill-in-the-blank. It was a mistake for Ted Turner to equate CRASH with pornography, because the average porno film probably has more plot. As fitfully intriguing as the psychology of CRASH may be, it's never engrossing. By failing to give his audience a sense of complicity, he has made them merely spectators at a rather monotonous freak show.
On the Renshaw scale of 0 to 10 crash test dummies: 4.

Scaling the canvas
Though it is rarely suitable for pixel art, Pixen does provide a sheet for scaling your canvas. If you'd rather merely pad it, resizing the canvas is what you need. The scaling sheet is accessible by Edit > Scale Canvas... We provide several algorithms for scaling, and it's important to choose the right one to get a good result.
To double the size of the canvas:
If you just wish to double the size of the canvas in each dimension, Scale2x will yield spectacular results without destroying your palette. Unfortunately, this algorithm cannot be used for any scaling factors that aren't powers of two (2x, 4x, 8x, 16x, etc)
To multiply the dimensions by integer scaling factors:
If you're multiplying the width and the height by integer scale factors (it doesn't have to be the same one), Nearest Neighbor will yield results that are the least lossy to your palette, which is desirable in most cases of pixel art.
For anything else:
For non-integer scaling factors or more "fuzzy" results, the bicubic algorithm will yield good results, but be warned: it will add many, many colors to your palette in its attempts to approximate the scale.


Async::Condition
A synchronization primative, which allows fibers to wait until a particular condition is triggered. Signalling the condition directly resumes the waiting fibers and thus blocks the caller.
Definitions
def wait
Queue up the current fiber and wait on yielding the task.
Implementation
def wait
fiber = Fiber.current
@waiting << fiber
Task.yield
# It would be nice if there was a better construct for this. We only need to invoke #delete if the task was not resumed normally. This can only occur with `raise` and `throw`. But there is no easy way to detect this.
# ensure when not return or ensure when raise, throw
rescue Exception
@waiting.delete(fiber)
raise
end
def empty?
Is any fiber waiting on this notification?
Implementation
def empty?
@waiting.empty?
end
def signal(value = nil)
Signal to a given task that it should resume operations.
Implementation
def signal(value = nil)
waiting = @waiting
@waiting = []
waiting.each do |fiber|
fiber.resume(value) if fiber.alive?
end
return nil
end


Welcome to my personal site! This is where I can collect, document and write my ideas and projects. There will probably be lots of improvement in the future, so be ready for some big changes.
I hope that both you and I can learn many things by reading/building this site and I'm sure we'll have the whale of a time. If you're not me; keep reading, and if I'm me, keep doing what I'm supposed to do.
If you for any reason want to contact me, you can mail me at

I read most of these mangas during winter break and most of them are pretty famous or have gained at least some reputations on the online community already.
I actually watch the anime for Kimetsu no Yaiba first but I was curious about the plot so I just pick up the manga so that I don't need to wait for an entire season of anime to be made.
Grand Blue actually got recommended by a friend but it turns out to be pretty great. He recommends me to read another manga name "Mashle"
I start reading this because the name reminds me of some super heroes and the author wrote "Fire punch". I just think that this would be a wild ride given what the title is and how interesting "Fire punch" is. The manga starts of pretty decent with ok jokes about some weird stuffs but the world building seems to be interesting. The adventure actually starts around chapter 40, when you realize that this was not a comedy manga but an action one. The situations that the authors put our main authors through is just mind-blowing. All the hurdles that he has to overcome seems so close to every day problems but in a world that fills with madness, it is completely different. Sometimes it feels a bit weird but if you are looking to try out some new manga genres, this might be for you.
This is your typical adventure manga I would say but the action and the stories behind are so good that I really recommend. The main character starts of with the intention to avenge his family (typical manga's protagonist start). He was dissapproved at first by the Demon's Slayer but as he goes through many trials and difficulties, he prove himself to be a competent one. The thing that is special about this manga is every characters have a detailed backstory that you can relate to on some levels. Even when the protagonist kills the final boss, it was a joint effort of multiple characters.
I have no word to describe this except that it is a very special type of comedy manga. The jokes are very different but when you start to think like the characters, the laugh will start kicking in. It is not for everyone so gives it a shot and read about 5 chapters.
