is small. For large delays, the Smith predictor is applied to solve the instability problem and the scheme is proved to be robust against a small difference between the assumed delay and the actual delay. The analysis shows that bustness against delays in the boundary measurement.

Background: Diabetes is a prevalent chronic disease around the world. To evaluate risk of diabetes comprehensively, we developed a score model for the risk prediction with HDL-C as a protective factor. Methods: We extracted physical examination data of 2728 individuals. The data contain 18 demographic and clinical variables. To identify the statistical significant feature variables, the backwa...

page 1 Predictor Corrector Methods Predictor Corrector Methods form the basis of the most successful codes (Variable Step Variable Order Methods) for the solution of initial value problems of ordinary differential equations. Briefly, these methods have been successful because they occur in naturally arising families covering a range of orders, they have reasonable stability properties, and they...

A mixed sensitivity problem is solved for dead-time systems. It is shown that for a given bound on the -norm causal stabilizing controllers exist that achieve this bound if and only if a related finite-dimensional Riccati equation has a solution with a certain nonsingularity property. In the case of zero time delay, the Riccati equation is a standard Riccati equation and the nonsingularity cond...

Energy-efficient dynamic branch predictors are proposed for the Cell SPE, which normally depends on compiler-inserted hint instructions to predict branches. All designed schemes use a Branch Target Buffer (BTB) to store the branch target address and the prediction, which is computed using a bimodal counter. One prediction scheme predecodes instructions when they are fetched from the local store...

The Smith predictor is applied to the boundary control of damped wave equations with large delays at the boundary measurement. The instability problem due to large delays is solved and the scheme is proved to be robust against a small difference between the assumed delay and the actual delay. Copyright c ©2005 IFAC

In this paper, an improved predictor-corrector methods (IPC) to solve fuzzy differential equation under generalized differentiability are discussed. The methods proposed here are based on generalized characterization theorem. Using the Generalized Characterization we can translate a fuzzy differential equation into two ODE systems. Also, the convergence and stability of the proposed methods are...
