A newmethod of the symbolic circuit tolerance analysis has been proposed. The approach is based onMiddlebrook’s extra element theorem and the generalized parameter extraction method. It does not need the matrix network description or presentation as algebraic sets or topological graphs. The proposed techniques have been realized in the computer program (Toleralize). To verify the theoretical an...

Thie paper presents a representation echeme for polyhedral objects in arbitrary dimensions. Each object ie represented as the algebraic sum of convex polyhedra (cells). Each cell in turn ie represented ae the intereection of halfspacee and encoded in a vector. The notion of vertices is abandoned completely aa it ie not needed for the eet and eearch operators we intend to support. We ehow how th...
