let $r$ be a commutative ring with identity and $mathbb{a}(r)$ be the set   of ideals of $r$ with non-zero annihilators. in this paper, we first introduce and investigate the principal ideal subgraph of the annihilating-ideal graph of $r$, denoted by $mathbb{ag}_p(r)$. it is a (undirected) graph with vertices $mathbb{a}_p(r)=mathbb{a}(r)cap mathbb{p}(r)setminus {(0)}$, where   $mathbb{p}(r)$ is...

This paper presents Riemann test problems for ideal MHD finite volume schemes. The test problems place emphasis on the hyperbolic irregularities of the ideal MHD system, namely the occurrence of intermediate shocks and non-unique solutions. We investigate numerical solutions for the test problems obtained by several commonly used methods (Roe, HLLE, central scheme). All methods turned out to sh...

Many real life decision making problems can be modeled as stochastic multi-attribute decision making (MADM) problems. A novel method for stochastic MADM problems is developed based on the ideal and nadir solutions as in the classical TOPSIS method. In a stochastic MADM problem, the evaluations of the alternatives with respect to the different attributes are represented by discrete stochastic va...

in this paper we define the notions of ultra and involution ideals in bck-algebras. then we get the relation among them and other ideals as (positive) implicative, associative, commutative and prime ideals. specially, we show that in a bounded implicative bck-algebra, any involution ideal is a positive implicative ideal and in a bounded positive implicative lower bck-semilattice, the notions of...

The debate on the effectiveness of ontology in solving semantic problems has increased recently in many domains of information technology. One side of the debate accepts the inclusion of ontology as a suitable solution. The other side of the debate argues that ontology is far from an ideal solution to the semantic problem. This article explores this debate in the area of information retrieval. ...

We present a new approach for aligning families of 2D gels. Instead of choosing one of the gels as reference and performing a pairwise alignment, we construct an ideal gel that is representative of the entire family and obtain a set of piecewise affine transformations that optimally align each gel of the family to the ideal gel. The coefficients defining the transformations as well as the ideal...

Designing an adequate fitness function requires substantial knowledge of a problem and of features that indicate progress towards a solution. Coevolution takes the human out of the loop by dynamically constructing the evaluation function based on interactions between evolving individuals. A question is to what extent such automatic evaluation can be adequate. We define the notion of an ideal ev...
