This monograph covers some recent advances in a range of acceleration techniques frequently used convex optimization. We first use quadratic optimization problems to introduce two key families methods, namely momentum and nested schemes. They coincide the case form Chebyshev method. discuss methods detail, starting with seminal work Nesterov structure convergence proofs using few master templat...

an enhanced displacement feedback structural control procedure is presented for performance-based design in this paper. at first, a comparative study is implemented assessing three most common active control algorithms including state, acceleration, and displacement feedback controls. the advantage of the displacement feedback algorithm for active control of structures against earthquakes is de...

The trajectory planning, which is known as a movement from starting to end point by satisfying the constraints along the path is an essential part of robot motion planning. A common way to create trajectories is to deal with polynomials which have independent coefficients. This paper presents a trajectory formulation as well as a procedure to arrange the suitable trajectories for applications. ...

This paper presents a brief overview of past and current hardware acceleration (HwA) approaches that have been proposed for the most computationally intensive compression tools of the MPEG-4 standard. These approaches are classified based on their historical evolution and architectural approach. An analysis of both evolutionary and functional classifications is carried out in order to speculate...

A method is presented for convergence acceleration of the generalized hypergeometric series 3F2 with the argument ±1 , using analytic properties of their terms. Iterated transformation of the series is performed analytically, which results in obtaining new fast converging expansions for some special functions and mathematical constants.
