A method to solve weakly non-linear partial differential equations with Volterra series is presented in the context of single-input systems. The solution x(z,t) is represented as the output of a z-parameterized Volterra system, where z denotes the space va ...
Problems that exhibit multiple time scales arise frequently in many scientific and engineering fields. The modeling and simulation of such systems leads naturally to singular perturbation models. For systems of partial differential-algebraic equations (PDA ...
Thermal management is a critical challenge in the design of high performance multi-processor system-on-chips (MPSoCs). Therefore, accurate and fast thermal modeling tools are necessary for efficiently analyzing the thermal profiles of MPSoCs. This paper ad ...
Neuronavigation systems are usually subject to inaccuracy due to intraoperative changes like brain shift or tumor resection. In order to correct for these deformations a biomechanical model of the brain is proposed. Not only elastic tissues, but also fluid ...
Systems and synthetic biology are two emerging disciplines that hold promise to revolutionize our understanding of biological systems and to herald a new era of programmable hardware, respectively. Mathematical abstraction and today's abundance of quantita ...
Different physical problems have been analysed in the preceding {chapters}: they relate to water transfer, to heat transfer, to pollutant transfer and to mechanical equilibrium. All these problems are governed by differential equations and boundary conditi ...
In recent work, we have shown that in a Gaussian network, nodes can often recover linear combinations of transmitted codewords much more efficiently than the codewords themselves. These nodes, after decoding their linear equations, simply send them towards ...

Performance evaluation of the 802.11 MAC protocol is classically based on the decoupling assumption, which hypothesizes that the backoff processes at different nodes are independent. A necessary condition for the validity of this approach is the existence ...
Recent years have seen a surge in mathematical modeling of the various aspects of neuron-astrocyte interactions, and the field of brain energy metabolism is no exception in that regard. Despite the advent of biophysical models in the field, the long-lastin ...
Disseminating a piece of information, or updates for a piece of information, has been shown to benefit greatly from simple randomized procedures, sometimes referred to as gossiping, or epidemic algorithms. Similarly, in a network where mobile nodes occasio ...
