In this paper we discuss layout generation of on-chip matched capacitors with accurate capacitance ratios. Capacitor sizing and placement suitable for design of error insensitive capacitance ratios are discussed including a proposed algoritm for common-centriod placement. Also, a regular layout structure is proposed that is suitable for implementation of capacitors with well matched capacitance...

This article reviews the topic of how to identify and develop a removable partial denture (RPD) path of placement, and provides a literature review of the concept of the RPD path of placement, also known as the path of insertion. An optimal RPD path of placement, guided by mutually parallel guide planes, ensures that the RPD flanges fit intimately over edentulous ridge structures and that the f...

In this paper, we propose an adaptive knot placement algorithm for B-Spline curve approximation to dense and noisy 2D data points. The proposed is based on a heuristic rule placement. It consists in constructing distribution function by blending geometric criteria such as discrete derivatives, angular variations curvature. has been successfully compared three well known methods approximating va...

BACKGROUND Although teamwork is known to optimise good health care, organisational arrangements and funding models can foster, discourage, or preclude functional teamworking. Despite a new, enhanced population-based funding system for primary care in New Zealand, bringing new opportunities for more collaborative practice, fully implemented healthcare teamwork remains elusive. AIM To explore p...

The optical characteristics of the first laser diodes fabricated from a single-InAs quantum-dot layer placed inside a strained InGaAs QW are described. The saturated modal gain for this novel laser active region is found to be 9–10 cm 1 in the ground state. Room temperature threshold current densities as low as 83 A/cm2 for uncoated 1.24m devices are measured, and operating wavelengths over a 1...

e problem of optimal placement of point sources is formulated as a distributed optimal control problem with sparsity constraints. For practical relevance, partial observations as well as partial and non-negative controls need to be considered. Although well-posedness of this problem requires a non-režexive Banach space setting, a primal-predual formulation of the optimality system can be approx...

Child poverty and child well-being have, in recent decades, increasingly become part of strategies and practices in the field of social policy. 1 Following international (e.g. OECD, 2009; UNICEF, 2007; 2010) and specifically EU developments (e.g. Frazer and Marlier, 2007; EU Task-Force, 2008; TÁRKI-Applica, 2010; European Commission, 2012), in 2007 Hungary adopted the ‘Legyen jobb a gyermekekne...

Living subjects (i.e., humans and animals) have abundant sources of energy in chemical, thermal, and mechanical forms. The use of these energies presents a viable way to overcome the battery capacity limitation that constrains the long-term operation of wearable/implantable devices. The intersection of novel materials and fabrication techniques offers boundless possibilities for the benefit of ...

The socio-technical theory is concerned with human well-being; it is democratic, humanistic and provides both freedom and knowledge to those who are part of it. Balanced scorecard is an approach that assesses whether the organization is meeting its objectives in terms of vision and strategy. It measures four perspectives: financial, customer, internal business processes and innovation & learnin...

neon, and directly after this the jail was evacuated, the sick having been transferred to the " old jail" hospital, and the other prisoners (with the exception of the women and children and under-trial prisoners who were sent to the subsidiary jail, and the civil debtors who were removed on the 4th to the camp jail) marched to sheds about two miles from Palamcottah. On the night of the 6th anot...
