A system is described, configured for quantitative evaluation of a person's gustatory sensitivity, characterized in that it comprises: - a first electrode (2) configured for direct application on the dorsal surface of the tip of the tongue, and comprising: - a biocompatible metallic film area, having at least one central opening or microholes, said area being adapted to directly adhere to the dorsal surface of the tip of the tongue and being connected to an electric conductor, said at least o...
Detecting performance bottlenecks in a target application is provided. In response to receiving hotspot selections from a user interface, bottleneck rules are extracted from a database. A hotspot is a region of source code that exceeds a time threshold to execute in the target application. Metrics needed to evaluate the bottleneck rules extracted from the database are identified. The identified metrics are computed. It is determined whether each bottleneck rule extracted from the database is ...
During runtime of a binary program file, streams of instructions are executed and memory references, generated by instrumentation applied to given ones of the instructions that refer to memory locations, are collected. A transformation is performed, based on the executed streams of instructions and the collected memory references, to obtain a table. The table lists memory events of interest for active data structures for each function in the program file. The transformation is performed to tr...
