listeners - to implement complex properties (e.g. temporal properties)
peer classes - to execute code at the host JVM level (instead of JPF), which is mostly used to implement native methods

wiki_8830_chunk_6 | Loop optimization | A unimodular transformation is legal if it preserves the temporal sequence of all dependencies; measuring the performance impact of a unimodular transformation is more difficult. Imperfectly nested loops and some transformations (such as tiling) do not fit easily into this framework. The polyhedral or constraint-based ... | wikipedia |

wiki_3295_chunk_24 | Paraconsistent logic | Included
Some tautologies of paraconsistent logic are:
All axiom schemas for paraconsistent logic:
** for deduction theorem and ?→{t,b} = {t,b}
** for deduction theorem (note: {t,b}→{f} = {f} follows from the deduction theorem)
** {f}→? = {t}
** ?→{t} = {t}
** {t,b}→{b,f} = {b,f}
** ~{f} = {t}

wiki_9435_chunk_6 | Computerized physician order entry | Patient safety benefits
In the past, physicians have traditionally hand-written or verbally communicated orders for patient care, which are then transcribed by various individuals (such as unit clerks, nurses, and ancillary staff) before being carried out. Handwritten reports or notes, manual order entry, non-standard... | wikipedia |
