In this paper we investigate the generalized HyersUlam stability of the functional equation f(2x + y) + f(2x − y) = f(x + y) + f(x − y) + 2f(2x)− 2f(x) in fuzzy Banach spaces.

A relation between coprlme fractions and the gap metric is presented. USlng this result we provlde some sufficient condi Hons for BIBO robust stabll1za tion for a very wlde class of systems. These conditions allow the plant and compensator to be disturbed simutaneously. K.e.Y words: Robust stabllization; Gap metric; Coprime fraction.

We distinguish between two types of grasp stability, which we call spatial grasp stability and contact grasp stability. We show via examples that spatial stability cannot capture certain intuitive concepts of grasp stability and hence that any full understanding of grasp stability must include contact stability. We derive a model of how the positions of the points of contact evolve in time on t...

The emergence of the field of spintronics has brought half-metallic ferromagnets to the centre of scientific research. A lot of interest was focused on newly created transition-metal pnictides (such as CrAs) and chalcogenides (such as CrTe) in the metastable zinc-blende lattice structure. These compounds were found to have the advantage of high Curie temperatures in addition to their structural...

European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) ERA-Interim reanalysis total precipitation estimates are validated against ten years of in situ precipitation measurements onboard of ships over the Baltic Sea. A statistical analysis for binary forecasts and mean rain rates derived from all data show a good agreement with observations. However, a closer look reveals an underestimation ...

Virtual teams, enabled by information technology, represent a new organizational form that has the potential to change the workplace and provide organizations with increased levels of flexibility and responsiveness. A gap exists in the current information systems literature. Previous studies seem to implicitly assume that virtual teams will be self-directed—i.e., that managerial control mechani...

Yahoo! is on track to realize its goal of real-time enterpriselevel reporting. Accessing real-time reports allows executives and decision makers to program content and advertising in a way that benefits both the business and the end user. This paper describes our legacy architecture, as well as a new, low latency pipeline. In particular, we show that by using a combination of novel JavaScript i...

Thriving towards a successful career is full of experiences. The experiences are dependent on the nature of the job, context and its interplay with life. The description on a career is further intensified when the issue of gender is incorporated. Especially among women who have been involved heavily as educators, there is a dearth of knowledge on what makes them excel in the field of higher edu...
