A Parameterized Macromodeling Strategy With Uniform Stability Test

An Overview of Non-Uniform Parameterized Complexity

We consider several non-uniform variants of parameterized complexity classes that have been considered in the literature. We do so in a homogenous notation, allowing a clear comparison of the various variants. Additionally, we consider some novel (non-uniform) parameterized complexity classes that come up in the framework of parameterized knowledge compilation. We provide some (inclusion and se...

On the Virtues of Parameterized Uniform Crossover

Traditionally, genetic algorithms have relied upon 1 and 2-point crossover operators. Many recent empirical studies, however, have shown the benefits of higher numbers of crossover points. Some of the most intriguing recent work has focused on uniform crossover, which involves on the average L/2 crossover points for strings of length L. Theoretical results suggest that, from the view of hyperpl...

Parameterized Net Classes: A Uniform Approach to Petri Net Classes

The Stability of a “uniform” Amplitude Wavetrain

A narrow-banded spectrum of gravity waves propagating in one horizontal direction 4 at the surface of water with finite depth may be governed by a nonlinear Schrödinger equation 5 (NLSE). If the depth is non-uniform, the coefficients in the NLSE are variable and an additional 6 linear term due to conservation of wave action flux is present, which may act as a dissipative term 7 that causes the ...

Issues in MEMS Macromodeling

AHDL modeling of MEMS components for system simulation is slowly maturing, however many issues remain regarding interoperability and composability. A discussion of MEMS natures, hierarchy and model partitioning helps to introduce the issues. Specific conventions for interoperability include choice of component reference frame and associated reference directions. A composite discipline extension...
