In this paper we describe an automatic procedure for successively reducing the set of possible nonzeros in a Jacobian matrix until eventually the exact sparsity pattern is obtained...
Fuzzy rule based image segmentation techniques tend in general, to be application dependent with the structure of the membership functions being predefined and in certain cases, t...
An exact parameterization for the boundary of the Minkowski product of N circular disks in the complex plane is derived. When N > 2, this boundary curve may be regarded as a gen...
It is well known that optimal server placement is NP-hard. We present an approximate model for the case when both clients and servers are dense, and propose a simple server alloca...
Being able to model contention for software resources (e.g., a critical section or database lock) is paramount to building performance models that capture all aspects of the delay...
