A new stochastic clustering algorithm is introduced that aims to locate all the local minima of a multidimensional continuous and differentiable function inside a bounded domain. ...
The existence of large sets of 5-(14,6,3) designs is in doubt. There are five simple 5-(14,6,6) designs known in the literature. In this note, by the use of a computer program, we...
Fixed point calculus is about the solution of recursive equations de˛ned by a monotonic endofunction on a partially ordered set. This tutorial presents the basic theory of ˛xed ...
: In this paper, an algorithm for simultaneous logic restructuring and placement is presented. This algorithm first constructs a set of super-cells along the critical paths and the...
Helly's theorem says that, if every d+1 elements of a given finite set of convex objects in Rd have a common point, there is a point common to all of the objects in the set. I...
