Clos Solutions to Binary Methods

Binary Methods Programming: the Clos Perspective

Implementing binary methods in traditional object-oriented languages is difficult: numerous problems arise regarding the relationship between types and classes in the context of inheritance, or the need for privileged access to the internal representation of objects. Most of these problems occur in the context of statically typed languages that lack multi-methods (polymorphism on multiple argum...

Asymptotic Analysis of Binary Gas Mixture Separation by Nanometric Tubular Ceramic Membranes: Cocurrent and Countercurrent Flow Patterns

Analytical gas-permeation models for predicting the separation process across  membranes (exit compositions and area requirement) constitutes an important and necessary step in understanding the overall performance of  membrane modules. But, the exact (numerical) solution methods suffer from the complexity of the solution. Therefore, solutions of nonlinear ordinary differential equations th...

comparison between to versions of the SAFT EOS in the study of PVT and VLE phase behavior of pure polymer melts and binary polymer solutions

A Comparison Between GA and PSO Algorithms in Training ANN to Predict the Refractive Index of Binary Liquid Solutions

A total of 1099 data points consisting of alcohol-alcohol, alcohol-alkane, alkane-alkane, alcohol-amine and acid-acid binary solutions were collected from scientific literature to develop an appropriate artificial neural network (ANN) model. Temperature, molecular weight of the pure components, mole fraction of one component and the structural groups of the components were used as input paramet...

Solid-Connection Rearrangeability for 3-Stage Clos Networks in the Multirate Environment

In this paper, we study one aspect of the rearrangeably nonblocking (RNB) operation of generalized, multirate, 3-stage Clos switching networks. In order to achieve RNB operation in a Clos network, we must find a way to route any given traffic load through the middle-stage switches, possibly rearranging existing connections. The model under consideration assumes that a single connection (or call...
