Abstract. In the paper the design methodology and stability analysis of parallel distributed fuzzy model based predictive control is presented. The idea is to design a control law for each rule of the fuzzy model and blend them together. The proposed control algorithm is developed in state space domain and is given in analytical form. The analytical form brings advantages in comparison with opt...

We present a new Algorithm for In-Place Rectangular Transposition of an m by n matrix A that is efficient. In worst case it is O(N logN) where N = mn. It uses a bit-vector of size IWORK words to further increase its efficiency. When IWORK=0 no extra storage is used. We also review some of the other existing algorithms for this problem. These contributions were made by Gower, Windley, Knuth, Mac...

We introduce a phenomenological investigation of the evolution and large scale distribution of quasars using a modified version of the Field and Colgate gravitational contraction model for proto-galaxies. By studying the distribution of about 7000 quasars in 5 luminosity classes, it seems that, such a model is capable of solving the energy problem and discussing some of the observational proper...

H = ρ0(r, B1, B2)(r dφ + dr)− ρ1(r)(B1 sin 2φ+B2 cos 2φ)− ρ2(r) cosφ (2) where B1, B2 are constants and ρ0, ρ1, ρ2 are some functions. It has been shown in [5] that this family reduced to the case of Kovalevskaya when B1 = B2 = 0. We say that a conservative system on S is smooth if the Hamiltonian is a sum of a smooth Riemannian metric on S (kinetic energy) and a smooth function U on S (potenti...

The paper presents a study of various environmental factors which influence respira tion, glycolysis, and the Crabtree Effect in the Ehrlich ascites carcinoma cells. The factors examined for influence on respiration include: (1) pH in the presence and ab sence of glucose and (2) varying concentrations of inorganic phosphate in: (a) media used to wash the cells, (6) incubation media, with no sup...

Interoperability is a key issue for information system nowadays. The need for integration of different sources of data is needed when working in a distributed environment as well as when thinking of use data captured in the web. In both cases data may come with heterogeneities in many aspects, and thus the integration is mandatory to allow the correct use of data. A first step in this sence is ...

One hundred adult South African Negro skulls having a complete maxillary dentition were examined for the pre­ sence of dehiscence and fenestrations o f the labial or buccal alveolar plate. The defects were diagnosed ac­ cording to the definition in the Journal o f Periodontology, Glossary.of Terms (1977). It was found that 8,4 per cent o f teeth had either dehiscences or fenestrations and 28,5 ...
