For many decades, nanotechnology has been developed with cooperation from researchers in several fields of studies including physics, chemistry, biology, material science, engineering, and computer science. In this chapter, we explore the nanotechnology development community and identify the needs and opportunities of computer science research in nanotechnology. In particular we look at methods...

The field equations and boundary conditions of Hořava-Witten theory, compactified on a smooth compact quotient of CH, where CH denotes the hyperbolic cousin of CP, are studied in the presence of Casimir energy density terms. If the Casimir energy densities near one boundary result in a certain constant of integration taking a value greater than around 10 in units of the d = 11 gravitational len...

a common method to determine the order of minimal realization of a continuous linear time invariant descriptor system is to decompose it into slow and fast subsystems using the weierstrass canonical form. the weierstrass decomposition should be avoided because it is generally an ill-conditioned problem that requires many complex calculations especially for high-dimensional systems. the present ...

Developing the right set of educational objectives and activities are some the key factors for a successful education program. Since almost all educational processes intend to improve quality of life or realty it is important to consider the human interaction with reality and its objectives before designing the educational experience. In this paper the concept of realization or dealing with rea...

In the preceding chapters, we presented an analysis of lexical aspect that integrates the many lexical aspectual distinctions relevant to grammar with grammatical consequences into a single model. The model analyzes the aspectual structure of events as a temporal sequence of qualitatively distinct phases. The phases are represented in two geometric dimensions, time and qualitative states. In th...
