we deal with a wide range of colors in our daily life. they are such ubiquitous phenomena that is hard and next to impossible to imagine even a single entity (be it an object, place, living creature, etc) devoid of them. they are like death and tax which nobody can dispense with. this omnipresence of colors around us has also made its way through abstract and less tangible entities via the inte...

the link between studies in discourse analysis and corpus linguistics has created new fields of research previously unattended. one of these areas is the study of semantic prosody produced through frequent collocation of a lexical item with a collection of words. semantic prosody is the positive, negative or neutral shade of meaning which a seemingly neutral word adopts after frequent collocati...

The rate-regulation tradeoff, defined between two objective functions, one penalizing the packet rate and regulation cost, can express fundamental performance bound of networked control systems. However, characterization set globally optimal solutions in this tradeoff for multidimensional Gauss–Markov processes has been an open problem. In article, we characterize a policy profile that belongs ...
