We consider a macroscopic (drift-diffusion) model describing a simple microwave generator, consisting of a special type of semiconductor material that, when biased above a certain ...
Various algorithms can compute approximate feasible points or approximate solutions to equality and bound constrained optimization problems. In exhaustive search algorithms for gl...
With increased global interconnectivity, reliance on e-commerce, network services, and Internet communication, computer security has become a necessity. Organizations must protect ...
