This paper considers the problem of passing from a nonlinear simple-structure model to a low-order approximation by preserving simplicity. The approximation problem is often best posed as an `2 optimization problem. This optimization problem is the core of our order reduction method so-called system matrices optimization. The simplification is formulated as special secondary conditions which ca...

We study the convergence rate of MCMC on the statistically unidentifiable nonlinear model involving the Michaelis-Menten kinetic equation. We have shown that, under certain conditions, the convergence diagnosis of Raftery and Lewis (1992) is consistent with the convergence rate argued by Brooks and Roberts (1999). Therefore, different MCMC schemes developed in linear models are further extended...

Shopping malls in virtual reality (VR) environments have created a new paradigm of distribution as strategy digital consumption experience for sustainable management the fast-changing digitalization SCM. This study implemented VR shopping environment to examine how telepresence and interactivity affect consumers’ usage behavior after experiencing by applying SOM model economy, suggests role SCM...

◈ well-known keystream generator ◈ proposed by Coppersmith, Krawczyk and Mansour [Crypto 93] ◈ use two LFSRs A and S. – Let a 0 , a 1 , … denote the sequence generated by A. – Let s 0 , s 1 , … denote the sequence generated by S. ◈ The resultant sequence is a " shrunken " version of the first one. ◈ modified version of Shrinking Generator ◈ proposed by Meier and Staffelbach [Eurocrypt 94] ◈ use...

In today’s competitive market, it is essential for companies to evaluate and benchmark their supply chain management (SCM) system. This task is difficult due to the lack of a universal index that includes the relevant criteria for any business nature such as manufacturing or service. This paper identified six major criteria and their respected sub-criteria of the SCM cycle based on literature s...

Microwave-based all-analogue (orthogonal) subcarrier multiplexing (SCM) permits a direct processing of baseband data at Gbit/s while achieving low power consumption, low latency, low cost, and tolerance to dispersion. A key figure of merit in any SCM link is the sensitivity in the receiver, which depends on the transmitter, the link and the receiver. By analysing the impact of the nonlinearitie...

This article gives a brief overview of the major portable techniques: those based on optical spectroscopy techniques, including near-infrared (NIR), mid-infrared (mid-IR), and Raman spectroscopy; mass spectrometry (MS) systems, high-pressure MS (HPMS), gas chromatography–MS (GC–MS), ion mobility (IMS); elemental such as X-ray fluorescence (XRF) laser-induced breakdown (LIBS); emerging miniaturi...
