Introduction: Based on Voyager imaging of Jupiter’s moon Europa, Lucchita and Soderblom [1] classified the surface of this icy satellite into two major terrain types: plains and mottled terrain. Mottled terrain was defined as consisting of isolated small spots, hummocky topography, and sometimes broken-up lineae. One of the primary goals of the Galileo mission was to determine the origin and pa...

The concept of molecular chaos dates back to Boltzmann [3], who derived the fundamental equation of the kinetic theory of gases under the hypothesis that the molecules of a nonequilibrium gas are in a state of “molecular disorder.” The concept of propagation of molecular chaos is due to Kac [8, 9], who called it “propagation of the Boltzmann property” and used it to derive the homogeneous Boltz...

BACKGROUND The benefits of medication adherence to control cardiovascular disease (CVD) are well defined, yet multiple studies have identified poor adherence. The influence of life chaos on medication adherence is unknown. Because this is a novel application of an instrument, our preliminary objective was to understand patient factors associated with chaos. The main objective was to evaluate th...

generate very wide bandwidth waveforms directly and efficiently. With chaos control, we can produce a vast array of waveforms that are ideal for spread-spectrum communications and for highly accurate ranging. We believe a system designed around a chaotic source can perform comparably to conventional systems while requiring far fewer components. The idea of exploiting the complexity of chaos in ...

In many scientific applications, arrays containing data are indirectly indexed through indirection arrays. Such scientific applications are called irregular programs and are a distinct class of applications that require special techniques for parallelization. This paper presents a library called CHAOS, which helps users implement irregular programs on distributed memory message-passing machines...

Computer networks require sophisticated control mechanisms to realize fair resource allocation among users in conjunction with efficient resource usage. To successfully realize fair resource allocation in a network, someone should control the behavior of each user by considering fairness. To provide efficient resource utilization, someone should control the behavior of all users by considering ...

Chaos should occur often in gene regulatory networks (GRNs) which have been widely described by nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations, if their dimensions are no less than 3. It is therefore puzzling that chaos has never been reported in GRNs in nature and is also extremely rare in models of GRNs. On the other hand, the topic of motifs has attracted great attention in studying biolo...

This article presents a comprehensive review of chaos embedded meta-heuristic optimization algorithms and describes the evolution of this algorithms along with some improvements, their combination with various methods as well as their applications. The reported results indicate that chaos embedded algorithms may handle engineering design problems efficiently in terms of precision and convergenc...

if we accept this idea that in talking about art, there is a chasm between thought and unthought debating on art theory in the sociohistorical context of after revolutionary iran requires at least two items in which understanding and creating art meet one another: 1) art as door separates intelligible from sensible, rational from irrational, and logos from pathos as well and 2) art as bridge no...
