In this paper, we consider the problem of interconnect delay minimization by simultaneous buffer and wire sizing under the Elmore delay model. We first present a polynomial time algorithm SBWS to minimize the delay of an interconnect wire. Previously, no polynomial time algorithm for the problem has been reported in the literature. SBWS is an iterative algorithm with guaranteed convergence to t...

6D SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) or 6D Concurrent Localization and Mapping of mobile robots considers six degrees of freedom for the robot pose, namely, the x, y and z coordinates and the roll, yaw and pitch angles. In previous work we presented our scan matching based 6D SLAM approach [10–12,16], where scan matching is based on the well known iterative closest point (ICP) algori...

A new class of nonlinear set-valued variationalinclusions involving $(A,eta)$-monotone mappings in a Banachspace setting is introduced, and then based on the generalizedresolvent operator technique associated with$(A,eta)$-monotonicity, the existence and approximationsolvability of solutions using an iterative algorithm and fixedpint theory is investigated.
