The Marchitecture is a cognitive architecture for autonomous development of representations. The goals of The Marchitecture are domain independence, operating in the absence of knowledge engineering, learning an ontology of parameterized relational concepts, and elegance of design. To this end, The Marchitecture integrates classification, parsing, reasoning, and explanation. The Marchitecture a...

For uniprocessor systems, the object-oriented approach to programming has proven to be effective in obtaining highly maintainable and reusable software. Object-oriented programming languages, with its inherent conceptual elegance, has also allowed a high degree of programmability in the development of complex systems. As we move towards addressing issues for parallel environments, programmabili...

This paper presents a generalization of the continuous wavelet transform to higher dimensions. This generalization includes previous higher dimensional generalizations as special cases, without the loss of the elegance of the one-dimensional equations. One noteworthy special case is a transform that is closely related to the cortex transform developed by Watson. This special case rmly relates t...

It was almost a century ago, in 1872, that Felix Klein formulated his Erlanger Program. The idea of unifying the geometries under the group concept is simple and attractive and its applications in the derivation of different geometrical theorems from the same group-theoretic argument are usually of great elegance. This leads to the development of differential geometries of submanifolds in homog...

AspectS is an approach to general-purpose aspect-oriented programming in the Squeak/Smalltalk environment. Based on concepts of AspectJ it extends the Smalltalk metaobject protocol to accommodate the aspect modularity mechanism. In contrast to systems like AspectJ, weaving and unweaving in AspectS happens dynamically at runtime, on-demand, employing metaobject composition. Instead of introducin...

This paper compares the functional programming language Sac to Hpf with respect to specificational elegance and runtime performance. A well-known benchmark, red-black SOR, serves as a case study. After presenting the Hpf reference implementation alternative Sac implementations are discussed. Eventually, performance figures show the ability to compile highly generic Sac specifications into machi...

In recent years there has been an increased interest in the study of mathematics applied to engineering aspects its teaching. present research work, a compilation analytical concepts differential equations solution problems electrical circuits, branch and mechanical problems, specifical spring-mass systems, through description solutions direct current circuits applying equations. This method st...

A very large number of scientific papers have been published in the literature on wearable antennas several types, structure and functionality. The main focus is always antenna efficiency from an engineering point view. However, integration into actual, realistic garments seldom addressed. In this paper, 2D pattern 3D virtual prototyping technology utilized to develop regular clothing, availabl...

This paper generalizes an impossible figure called a "Penrose triangle" to regular polygonal figures and proposes method for constructing real 3D objects from such figures. Two well-known tricks, namely the curved surface trick discontinuity trick, have been used construct However, these tricks are very sensitive viewpoint. The proposed uses only planar faces connects them wherever they appear ...

How is social etiquette performed when offline interpersonal interactions are mediated online? Sixty semi-structured interviews with WeChat users, China's most popular media platform, show that the app's technical designs facilitated a set of online rules which reproduced those acquaintance communities. Three dimensions were considered and observed: respect, elegance, tidiness. Users honored fa...
