We present a tile system for assembling a counter of width K and height N = 2 on top of a seed-row in optimum time Θ(N). Our counter works at temperature 2. Earlier known constructions either took sub-optimal time or required temperature 3. Using existing techniques, our system for assembling a counter from a seed row can be extended into a system for assembling an N × N square in optimum time ...

when the degree of saturation at intersection approaches one, webster’s optimum cycle length equation becomes inapplicable, because the cycle length will becomes very big when the degree of saturation approaches one and will be fully unrealistic when the degree of saturation becomes greater than one. this is not a problem for hcm2000 method. but optimum cycle length calculation in this method h...

— Optimum préventive maintenance policies and optimum repair time limit policies are derived for a system which générâtes earnings and is subject to f allure and repair.

The design of partial-band linear periodically time-varying systems (PBTV) imitating linear time-invariant (LTI) systems is approached using a relative ` error criterion. This error criterion results from a natural extension of the Chebyshev error criterion for the design of LTI systems. A complete analysis of the error criterion is presented. An algorithm is introduced which nds a locally opti...

This paper presents big-M (penalty) method for optimum time coordination of overcurrent (OC) relays. The method is based on the simplex algorithm which is used to find optimum solution of linear programming problem (LPP). The method introduces artificial variables in the objective function to get an initial basic feasible solution (IBFS). Artificial variables are removed using iterative process...

This paper introduces some known non-optimum to the networks security, categorizes the non-optimum, and analyses protection mechanisms and techniques for countering the non-optimum. The non-optimum have been classified more so as definitions and then followed by the classifications of these non-optimum. Also mentioned are the protection mechanisms. The paper establishes the syndrome and empiric...

Slow-twitch motor units in the medial gastrocnemius muscle of the anesthetized cat were found to have an average optimum length for active tension that was 0.8 +/- 0.5 (SE) mm longer than the whole muscle optimum. For fast-twitch units (time to peak < 50 ms), the average optimum was 1.3 +/- 0.3 mm shorter than the whole muscle optimum. After the muscle had been subjected to 10 stretches while m...

ultrasound-assisted extraction was used to determine the optimum processing conditions and to achieve the maximum extraction yield and viscosity of the gum extracted from quince seed. using response surface methodology (rsm) to design the experiments and adopting the central composite rotatable design (ccrd), the effect of extraction temperature (25-55°c), time (3-10 minutes), and ph (6-8) were...

This paper presents a novel approach to nonoptimum analysis based on experience recognition. Our goal is to provide support for optimization of uncertainty system. Our approach allows the practice courses and results of mankind are classified by their natures into two categories: optimum, and non-optimum. It is considered that the nonoptimum system does not exclude the targets and the results o...

effect of different ratios of sucrose to fruit concentrate (orange and sour cherry), level of cacl2 (0-2%) and storage time (0-90 days) on physicochemical properties of candied apples were investigated using of a combined design. different quality indices such as total sugars content, ascorbic acid, color attribute (chroma) and overall acceptance were modeled and then multiobjective optimizatio...
