A combined compact difference scheme is proposed for linear second-order partial differential equations with mixed derivative. The scheme is based on a nine-point stencil at interior with sixth-order accurate local truncation error. Fourier analysis is used to analyze the spectral resolution of the proposed scheme. Numerical tests demonstrate at least sixth-order convergence rate with Dirichlet...

The Bonferroni mean is an important aggregation technique which can reflect the correlations of the aggregation arguments. The classical Bonferroni mean is an extension of the arithmetic mean, and is generalized by some researchers based on the idea of the geometric mean. In this paper, based on the Bonferroni mean and the harmonic mean, we introduce some new aggregating operators: the fuzzy Bo...

This paper develops a modular synthesis algorithm for timed circuits that is dramatically accelerated by partial order reduction. This algorithm synthesizes each module in a hierarchical design individually. It utilizes partial order reduction to reduce the state space explored for the other modules by considering a single interleaving of concurrently enabled transitions. This approach better m...

In this paper, we propose a class of estimators for estimating the finite population mean of the study variable under Ranked Set Sampling (RSS) when population mean of the auxiliary variable is known. The bias and Mean Squared Error (MSE) of the proposed class of estimators are obtained to first degree of approximation. It is identified that the proposed class of estimators is more efficient as...
