We discuss the stability of multiquark systems containing heavy flavours. We show that the Goldstone boson exchange model gives results at variance with one-gluon-exchange models.

Accurate and efficient power analysis capability at the system-level is an essential ingredient for developing a successful SoC or processor design methodology. Our work presents a \textbf{system-level power analysis} framework that facilitates architectural exploration through a quick and sufficiently accurate power estimation capability. Developing a power analysis framework at systemlevel re...

Reflection is an increasingly important feature in software systems as evidenced by introduction of datatype reflection abilities in Java, RTTI runtime type information reflection package for C++, and reflection service in .NET environment. Since systems being designed today are supposed to self-configure, self-heal and make a lot more intelligent decisions about itself, including versioning, f...

The Allan variance is a well-known estimator of frequency stability and is often used to classify a time series into one of the standard clock noise types. By identifying the power-law model for clock noise with its long-memory equivalent, the Allan variance can also serve as an estimate for the long-memory parameter. Although the Allan variance is not a maximum likelihood estimator, it can be ...

Low-power behavioral synthesis has been given considerable attention in the recent past. Recently, new hardware specification formalisms have been proposed where the specification is action-oriented rather than composition of sequential threads. We call such specification formalisms CAOS or Concurrent Action Oriented Specifications. CAOS models have low granularity concurrent atomic action desc...

This paper addresses the problem of robust exponential filtering for discrete uncertain systems with mixed stochastic and deterministic uncertainties, in addition to unmodelled nonlinearities and measurement and process noises with bounded variances. keywords: Robust filter, stochastic uncertainties, Lyapunov function, error variance, exponential stability, asymptotic stability.

We present new results on stochastic stability of linear discrete-time systems with additive uncertainty under several receding horizon control policies. We guarantee bounded variance of the closed-loop system under each policy via appending a stability constraint to the existing optimization routine of the corresponding policy.
