A Toolbox of Subarrays for Optimizing Wide-Angular Scanning Arrays Using Trade-Offs Between Scan Loss and Side Lobe Level

Design of Non-uniform Circular Antenna Arrays Using Firefly Algorithm for Side Lobe Level Reduction

A design problem of non-uniform circular antenna arrays for maximum reduction of both the side lobe level (SLL) and first null beam width (FNBW) is dealt with. This problem is modeled as a simple optimization problem. The method of Firefly algorithm (FFA) is used to determine an optimal set of current excitation weights and antenna inter-element separations that provide radiation pattern with m...

System-Level HardwarelSoftware Trade-offs

Achieving timely and comprehensive functional design verifi-cation is a ubiquitous problem in electronics. This panel offers per-spectives on verification from designers of cardiac pacemakers,communications satellites, compute servers, networking equip-ment, and IP. The panelists will begin by dissecting the bottlenecks in theirverification processes. For example, are simula...

A one-model approach for Computation of congestion With productions trade-offs and weight restrictions

A Differential Equations Approach to Optimizing Regret Trade-offs

We consider the classical question of predicting binary sequences and study the optimal algorithms for obtaining the best possible regret and payoff functions for this problem. The question turns out to be also equivalent to the problem of optimal trade-offs between the regrets of two experts in an “experts problem”, studied before by [14]. While, say, a regret of Θ( √ T ) is known, we argue th...

Optimizing your live - cell microscopy : Tricks and trade - offs

With ZEISS LSM 800 you are choosing a flexible and compact confocal laser scanning microscope, complete with highly sensitive GaAsP detector technology and fast linear scanning. Add Airyscan, the revolutionary detection concept from ZEISS, and you will gain 1.7× higher resolution in all three dimensions – resulting in a 5× smaller confocal volume. And you will be pushing sensitivity beyond the ...
