A Triangular Periodic Table of Elementary Circuit Elements

Superconductivity and the periodic table: from elements to materials.

Based on the normal-state electronic band structure, the necessary condition for a metal to become a superconductor is the simultaneous occurrence of flat and steep bands at the Fermi level. The sufficient condition at least for conventional superconductors is a strong enough coupling of the flat band states to the lattice, e.g. via phonons. Selected elements (Te) and compounds of the rare eart...

Elementary Maps on Triangular Algebras

In this note we prove that elementary surjective maps on triangular algebras are automatically additive. The study of elementary maps was initiated by Brešar and Šerml. Following ([1]), elementary maps are defined as follows. Definition 1. Let R and R be two rings. Suppose that M : R → R and M : R → R are two maps. Call the ordered pair (M,M) an elementary map of R×R if

Towards a Periodic Table of Connectors

Connectors are the glue for combining components and are a critical aspect of software architecture design. Providing a framework similar in spirit to that of the periodic table of chemical elements, this work strives to obtain a set of high level canonical properties that can describe all possible connectors and allow operations to be de ned over them. Connector factorization obtains a new con...

Towards a “Periodic Table of Component Models”

When applying model-driven architecture to component models, a significant issue is to address challenges such as component architecture transformation, compositional consistency analysis, and component code synthesis in a reusable way. Mostly, this is due to the substantial differences among abstractions of component models. As a remedy, the paper presents Periodic Table of Component Models (P...
