The efficient synthesis of circuits is a well-studied problem. Due to the NP-hardness of the problem, no optimal algorithm has been presented so far. However, the heuristics presented by several researchers in the past, which are also adopted by commercial ...
In this paper, we propose a Markov chain modeling of complicated phenomena observed from coupled chaotic oscillators. Once we obtain the transition probability matrix from computer simulation results, various statistical quantities can be easily calculated ...
To characterize the behavior and robustness of cellular circuits with many unknown parameters is a major challenge for systems biology. Its difficulty rises exponentially with the number of circuit components. We here propose a novel analysis method to mee ...
This report concerns a technical analysis of the greenhouse gas calculator developped by the International Road Federation (IRF). A specific analysis of the databases is performed. ...
The finite element method has been employed in order to simulate the behaviour of a HTS cable for transport current applications. The E-J model includes an anisotropic dependence of the critical current density Jc and power index n on the local magnetic fi ...
In this paper, a novel circuit referred to as complex Gm-C sampler that can be used for sub-sampling IF signals is presented. The circuit employs a conventional cross-coupled Gm-C filter structure with a built-in sampler to combine th ...

This paper describes the first VLSI implementation of lattice reduction (LR) aided multi-antenna broadcast precoding with vector perturbation. The considered LR scheme is based on Brun's algorithm for finding integer relations. We analyze its high-level ar ...

This paper presents a recently introduced switching principle for emerging monolithic bidirectional devices. Based on the hypothesis that those switches may overcome conventional diode type solutions in power converters, an active self-switching process be ...

This paper deals with the determination of large synchronous machine characteristic quantities using an extended 2D-finite element method and based on the knowledge of the geometry and of the physical properties of the electrical and magnetic circuits of t ...
In this paper, we provide a formal analysis of a rational exchange protocol proposed by Syverson. A rational exchange protocol guarantees that misbehavior cannot generate benefits, and is therefore discouraged. The analysis is performed using our formal mo ...
