SOFT TOPOLOGY AND SOFT PROXIMITY AS FUZZY PREDICATES BY FORMULAE OF LUKASIEWICZ LOGIC

In this paper, based in the L ukasiewicz logic, the definition offuzzifying soft neighborhood structure and fuzzifying soft continuity areintroduced. Also, the fuzzifying soft proximity spaces which are ageneralizations of the classical soft proximity spaces are given. Severaltheorems on classical soft proximities are special cases of the theorems weprove in this paper.

Programmable logic devices

Advances in programmable logic devices' architectures are making PLDs suitable for a plethora of applications. The devices now find use in state machines and other highly sequential circuits. In the past two years, bipolar PLD operating speeds have doubled, and emerging CMOS PLDs offer four times the circuitry per chip than the older bipolar versions offered. CMOS PLDs also offer lower operatin...

Molecular-scale soft imprint lithography for alignment layers in liquid crystal devices.

We describe molecular-scale soft nanoimprint lithographic replication of rubbed polyimide substrates to form alignment layers for liquid crystal devices. Systematic studies of the surface relief morphology of the polyimide and molded structures in three different polymers illustrate good lithographic fidelity down to relief heights of several nanometers, and with some capabilities at the level ...

Smart Devices and Soft Controllers

W e are in the early stages of a transition to a world in which everything is alive 1 — that is, a world where common objects (including those that are inanimate and abstract) can have individual identities, memory, processing capabilities, and the ability to communicate and sense, monitor, and control their own behaviors. As the Semantic Web gets smarter and reaches out into the world, the " I...
