the administrative system is a means of achieving the goals of political, economic, social and cultural systems of any society. it seems the nature and content of administrative management system affected by the construction and nature of governing system in every society. thus, there is a proactive relationship between these systems. therefore competency-based administrative system is equivale...

In this review we present a biased review of the ground state properties of the Falicov-Kimball models in 1, 2 and ∞ dimensions, considering either fermions or hard core bosons. In particular we want to show the very rich structure that these models exhibit, and to point out the analogies and differences associated with the statistic of the quantum particles and the nature of the lattice (bipar...

Supersymmetry and Yang-Mills type gauge invariance are two of the essential properties of most, and possibly the most important models in fundamental physics. Supersymmetry is nearly trivial to prove in the (traditionally gauge-noncovariant) superfield formalism, whereas the gauge-covariant formalism makes gauge invariance manifest. In 3+1dimensions, the transformation from one into the other i...

“T-fold” backgrounds are generically-nongeometric compactifications of string theory, described by T fibrations over a base N with transition functions in the perturbative T-duality group. We review Hull’s doubled torus formalism, which geometrizes these backgrounds, and use the formalism to constrain the D-brane spectrum (to leading order in gs and α ) on T fibrations over S with O(n, n;Z) mon...

Sediment profiles in open channels are usually predicted by advection-diffusion models. Most basic forms consider the terminal settling velocity of a single particle in still clear water. Alternative forms account for hindered settling at higher concentrations. It is not known, however, how these modifications relate to mass and momentum conservation of each phase. For dilute flow, it is known ...

— Space-time block codes from square complex orthogonal designs (SCOD) have been extensively studied and most of the existing SCODs contain large number of zeros. The zeros in the designs result in high peak-to-average power ratio and also impose a severe constraint on hardware implementation of the code while turning off some of the transmitting antennas whenever a zero is transmitted. Recentl...

This paper proposes an extension to the formalism of regular expressions with a form of predicate logic where quantified propositions apply to substrings. The implementation hinges crucially on the manipulation of auxiliary symbols which has been a common, though previously unsystematized practice in finitestate language processing. We also apply the notation to give alternate compilation metho...

A condition based preventive and corrective maintenance policy is proposed for a continuously operating system. The condition of the system is assumed to deteriorate with time. The model incorporates both deterioration as well as random common cause failures. The deterioration stages are modeled as discrete state processes. The system is put to random inspection to know the condition. The mean ...

In the present study, we analyze the multi-channel service system with ordered entryfrom finite-source and finite-storage at each channel. The arrival and service rates are assumedto be state dependent. The steady state probabilities of the system are obtained by usingChapmann-Kolmogorov equations. Some other performance indices viz. utilization of servers,expected number of units in the system...

On every n-long input, every two-way finite automaton (fa) can reverse its head O(n) times before halting. A fawith few reversals is an automaton where this number is only o(n). For every h, we exhibit a language that requires Ω(2) states on every deterministic fa with few reversals, but only h states on a nondeterministic fa with few reversals.
