(A) We study in this paper some connections between the Fra¨ıssé theory of amalgamation classes and ultrahomogeneous structures, Ramsey theory, and topological dynamics of automorphism groups of countable structures. A prime concern of topological dynamics is the study of continuous actions of (Hausdorff) topological groups G on (Hausdorff) compact spaces X. These are usually referred to as (co...

Pair programming is a kind of collaborative programming where two people are working simultaneously on the same programming task. It is one of the key practices of eXtreme Programming. In the paper we compare it with two variants of individual programming: one of them is based on Personal Software Process that has been proposed by W. Humphrey, and the other is a variant of eXtreme Programming t...

in this paper, we introduce a concept of a generalized $c$-distance in ordered cone $b$-metric spaces and, by using the concept, we prove some fixed point theorems in ordered cone $b$-metric spaces. our results generalize the corresponding results obtained by y. j. cho, r. saadati, shenghua wang (y. j. cho, r. saadati, shenghua wang, common fixed point  heorems on generalized distance in ordere...

in this paper, we prove the existence of fixed point for chatterjea type mappings under $c$-distance in cone metric spaces endowed with a graph. the main results extend, generalized and unified some fixed point theorems on $c$-distance in metric and cone metric spaces.

The main problem in cartography is that it not possible to map/project/transform a spherical or ellipsoidal surface into plane without distortions. distortions of areas, angles, and/or distances are immanent all maps. It known scale changes from point point, and at certain points, the usually depends on direction. local linear factor c one most important indicators distortion distribution theor...

This paper suggests an optimization-based methodology for the design of minimum weight structures with kinematic nonlinear behavior. Attention is focused on three-dimensional reticulated structures idealized with beam elements under proportional static loadings. The algorithm used for optimization is based on a classical optimality criterion approach using an active-set strategy for extreme lim...

The title compound, C7H8N2O2, formed by dehydration of the corresponding dicarboxamide, crystallizes as rectangular prisms. The mol-ecules have a C 2 axis of symmetry through the C atom bearing the methyl groups and the mid-point of the ring C-C bond, and the 1,3-dioxolane ring adopts the extreme twist conformation of the two possible with this symmetry. This brings the two nitrile groups neare...

Climate change in the western United States has increased the frequency of extreme fire weather events and is projected to increase the area burned by wildfire in the coming decades. This changing fire regime, coupled with increased high-severity fire risk from a legacy of fire exclusion, could destabilize forest carbon (C), decrease net ecosystem exchange (NEE), and consequently reduce the abi...
