What is the relationship between the complexity and the fitness of evolved organisms, whether natural or artificial? It has been asserted, primarily based on empirical data, that the complexity of plants and animals increases as their fitness within a part ...
A coupling of the electrical networks of ENTSO-E and IPS/UPS would result in a power system unprecedented in size and complexity, and potentially could have severe effects on operation and stability. ...
The problem of control synthesis to maximize the probability of satisfying automata specifications for systems with uncertainty is addressed. Two types of uncertainty are considered; stochasticity in the dynamical system and in the sets defining the specif ...
Since its creation in 1863, the ICRC has maintained a special relationship with Switzerland and its government, based on the pursuit of neutrality and on the perception of a common destiny. Such a perception and the adherence to shared political values wer ...
Self-stabilization ensures that, after any transient fault, the system recovers in a finite time and eventually exhibits correct behavior. Speculation consists in guaranteeing that the system satisfies its requirements for any execution but exhibits signif ...
We consider quadratic stochastic programs with random recourse—a class of problems which is perceived to be computationally demanding. Instead of using mainstream scenario tree-based techniques, we reduce computational complexity by restricting the space o ...
This work deals with the development and application of reduction strategies for real-time and many query problems arising in fluid dynamics, such as shape optimization, shape registration (reconstruction), and shape parametrization. The proposed strategy ...
We consider a blind calibration problem in a compressed sensing measurement system in which each sensor introduces an unknown phase shift to be determined. We show that this problem can be approached similarly to the problem of phase retrieval from quadrat ...
By focusing on the construction of thermodynamically stable structures, the self-assembly of mesoscopic systems has proven capable of formidable achievements in the bottom-up engineering of micro- and nanosystems. Yet, inspired by an analogous evolution in ...
Several natural products derived from entomopathogenic fungi have been shown to initiate neuronal differentiation in the rat pheochromocytoma PC12 cell line. After the successful completion of the total synthesis program, the reduction of structural comple ...
