This paper presents an original approach to the kinematic synthesis of planar mechanisms for finitely separated positions. The technique, referred to here as geometric constraint programming, uses the sketching mode of commercial parametric computer-aided design software to create kinematic diagrams. The elements of these diagrams are parametrically related so that when a parameter is changed, ...

Many applications of constraint programming languages concern geometric domains. We propose incorporating strong algorithmic techniques from the study of geometric and algebraic algorithms into the implementation of constraint programming languages. Interesting new computational problems in computational geometry and computer algebra arises from such considerations. We look at what is known and...

In this paper a nonlinear model is presented to demonstrate the relation between production and marketing departments. By introducing some functions such as pricing cost and market share loss functions it will be tried to show some aspects of market modelling which has not been regarded before. The proposed model will be a constrained signomial geometric programming model. For model solving, af...

A tutorial of the Mathematica1 package CGAlgebra, for conformal geometric algebra calculations is presented. Using rule-based programming, the 5-dimensional conformal geometric algebra is implemented and defined functions simplify the calculations of geometric, outer and inner products, as well as many other calculations related with geometric transformations. CGAlgebra is available from https:...

Big data knowledge discovery emerged as an important factor contributing to advancements in society at large. Still, researchers continuously seek to advance existing methods and provide novel ones for analysing vast data sets to make sense of the data, extract useful information, and build knowledge to inform decision making. In the last few years, a very promising variant of genetic programmi...

Geometric programming is an important class of optimization problems that enable practitioners to model a large variety of real-world applications, mostly in the field of engineering design. In many real life optimization problem multi-objective programming plays a vital role in socio economical and industrial optimizing problems. In this paper we have discussed the basic concepts and principle...
