Guidelines for distributing a buck converter rectifier for application to three-dimensional (3-D) circuits is described. The 3-D rectifier exploits the properties of transmission lines to generate and distribute power supplies to different planes. As compared to a conventional rectifier, the proposed rectifier circuit only requires moderately size capacitors without the use of onchip inductors....

Several logics for reasoning under uncertainty distribute probabil ity mass over sets in some sense These include probabilistic logic Dempster Shafer theory other logics based on belief functions and second order probabilistic logic We show that these logics are in stances of a certain type of linear programming model typically with exponentially many variables We also show how a single linear ...

In the paper “Groups that Distribute over Mathematical Structures”, [5], we stated that a group (S, ·) on a set S left (or right) distributes over an arbitrary mathematical structure (S, ∗) on the same set S if and only if respectively for all fixed t ∈ S the permutation Lt (x) = t · x (or Rt (x) = x · t) is a similarity mapping on (S, ∗). A similarity mapping f on (S, ∗) is a permutation on S ...

We study the problem of optimizing the performance of a system shared by selfish, noncooperative users. We consider the concrete setting of scheduling jobs on a set of shared machines with loaddependent latency functions specifying the length of time necessary to complete a job; we measure system performance by the total latency of the system. Assigning jobs according to the selfish interests o...

To solve the problem of distributed data streams clustering, the algorithm DB-DDSC (Density-Based Distribute Data Stream Clustering) was proposed. The algorithm consisted of two stages. First presented the concept of circular-point based on the representative points and designed the iterative algorithm to find the densityconnected circular-points, then generated the local model at the remote si...

Distribution networks were conceived to distribute the energy received from transmission and subtransmission supply passive loads. This approach, however, is not valid anymore due presence of distributed generation, which mainly based on renewable energies, increased number plug-in electric vehicles that are connected at this voltage level for domestic use. In paper ongoing transition distribut...

Code reuse between different object model implementations is rare. Most object models cannot easily be shared because they are implemented at a lower level of abstraction than that of the language in which they are designed to operate, rendering their semantics opaque and unavailable for modification by end users. We show that three object types and four methods are sufficient to bootstrap an o...
