EURO Mini Conference (MEC XXVIII) on Variable Neighborhood Search

We are presenting in this volume selected, peer-reviewed, short papers that were presented at the EURO Mini Conference XXVIII on Variable Neighborhood Search (MEC XXVIII VNS) which was held during October 4-7, 2012, in Herceg Novi, Montenegro.

Lecture XXVIII: Horizons and the area theorem

We begin by reconsidering the nature of the horizon. As we found in the Schwarzschild case, when properly considered in terms of a set of coordinates that are nonsingular at the horizon (ũ, ṽ, θ, φ), the horizon (in that case, ũ = 0) is actually a 3-dimensional submanifold H of the overall 4D manifold M. This is not surprising since it represents a boundary between the region observable by an o...

Two Papers on c · rcuit Extraction

"'.his paper describes thc algorithms. implementation, and performance of a hierarchical circuit extractorfor NMOS designs. The input to the circuit extractor is a description of the layout of the chip. and its outputis a hierarchical wirelist describing the circuit. The extractor is divided into two parts, a front-end and aback-end. The front-end analyzes the CIF description of...

Hydrogen-vacancy interactions in Fe-C alloys.

Energetics and concentrations of hydrogen-containing point defect clusters (PDCs) in Fe-C alloys are calculated and cast into a PDC dominance diagram. Because of the strong binding effects of iron vacancies on the stability of the clusters, hydrogen accumulation requires the total hydrogen and vacancy concentrations to be comparable. As a result of the interplay between repulsive and attractive...
