A new three-component measured equation of invariance (MEI) boundary condition is developed and applied to the hybrid edge/nodal vector finite element method. The electric field distribution on the cross section of various lossy transmission lines is calculated. The propagation constant of a lossy transmission line with coated conductor strip is also calculated. The three-component MEI boundary...

Pattern mining, one of the most important problems in data mining, involves finding existing patterns in data. This article provides a survey of the available literature on a variant of pattern mining, namely erasable itemset (EI) mining. EI mining was first presented in 2009 and META is the first algorithm to solve this problem. Since then, a number of algorithms, such as VME,MERIT, and dMERIT...

The design of the memory hierarchy is crucial to the performance of high performance computer systems. The incorporation of multiple levels of caches into the memory hierarchy is known to increase the performance of high end machines but the development of architectural prototypes of various memory hierarchy designs is costly and time consuming. In this paper, we will describe a single pass met...

Meiotic recombination and DNA repair are mediated by overlapping sets of genes. In the yeast Saccharomyces cereuisiae, many genes required to repair DNA doublestrand breaks are also required for meiotic recombination. In contrast, mutations in genes required for nucleotide excision repair (NER) have no detectable effects on meiotic recombination in S. cereuisiae. The Drosophila melanogaster mei...
