Abstract. An important surface modeling problem in CAD is to connect two disjoint B-spline patches with the second-order geometric continuity. In this paper we present a study to s...
We present a new passive model reduction algorithm based on the Laguerre expansion of the time response of interconnect networks. We derive expressions for the Laguerre coefficie...
Data replication in distributed databases has been investigated extensively with the hope that it will improve performance, reliability, and availability. However, the growth of t...
The proposed shape descriptor is based on the beams originated from a boundary point, which are defined as lines connecting that point with the rest of the points on the boundary....
This paper presents a computationally efficient method for deriving coordinate representations for the equations of motion and the affine connection describing a class of Lagrangi...
