The barriers to improving computers’ performance have led to the emergence of new computing paradigms and technologies. Among these, the memristors are of great concern. In addition to storing data, ...
A Ka-band monolithic low-noise amplifier (LNA) with high gain and high dynamic range (DR) has been designed and implemented in a 100-nm gallium nitride (GaN)-on-Si technology. The LNA is designed as ...
THE problems of cryptography and secrecy systems furnish an interesting application of communication theory. 1 In this paper a theory of secrecy systems is developed. The approach is on a theoretical ...
The theory of the design of optimal cascaded transformer arrangements can be extended to the design of continuous transmission-line tapers. Convenient relationships have been obtained from which the ...
A large number of metaheuristics have been proposed and shown high performance in solving complex optimization problems. While most variation operators in existing metaheuristics are empirically ...
The method of characteristics provides a simple analytic solution for the transient analysis of a uniform, lossless transmission line. The interpretation of this solution in terms of equivalent ...
Read's theory of the negative-resistance avalanche diode has been examined in detail for the small-signal case. The space-charge wave approach has been used in the analysis leading directly to a ...
Two algorithms for solving the (symmetric distance) traveling salesman problem have been programmed for a high-speed digital computer. The first produces guaranteed optimal solution for problems ...
Visual notations form an integral part of the language of software engineering (SE). Yet historically, SE researchers and notation designers have ignored or undervalued issues of visual representation ...
This paper proposes a switched-capacitor multilevel inverter for high-frequency ac power distribution systems. The proposed topology produces a staircase waveform with higher number of output levels ...
In recent years, the environmental problems in China have become more and more serious, for example, resource depletion, environmental pollution, ecological imbalance, and so on. At the same time, the ...
Every field has brief formulas or relationships that are useful for back-of-the-envelope calculations. Rarely do these maxims become popular knowledge; even more rarely do they become as ubiquitous ...
