Fractals are geometric shapes and patterns that can describe the roughness (or irregularity) present in almost every object nature. Many fractals may repeat their geometry at smaller or larger scales. This paper is second (and last) part of a series two papers dedicated to an eclectic survey describing infinite complexity amazing beauty from historical, theoretical, mathematical, aesthetical te...

We refine the recently introduced notion of eclectic spin chains by including a maximal number deformation parameters. These models are integrable, nearest-neighbor n-state with exceedingly simple non-hermitian Hamiltonians. They turn out to be non-diagonalizable in multiparticle sector (n>2), where their "spectrum" consists an intricate collection Jordan blocks arbitrary size and multiplicity....

Bees... by virtue of a certain geometrical forethought... know that the hexagon is greater than the square and the triangle and will hold more honey for the same expenditure of material. Abstract. This paper presents an eclectic approach for compressing weighted nite-state automata and transducers, with minimal impact on performance. The approach is eclectic in the sense that various complement...

The 1970s was a decisive period in terms of theories of internationalization. Suffice it to mention the Uppsala model (1975, 1977), the transaction costs theory (1975) and the Porterian framework which was developed through the late 70s and ultimately presented in 1980. During the 1980s the development was spurred on with increasing emphasis on the process of internationalization. Resource-depe...

The TTC 2013 Flow Graphs case [3] proposes the analysis of Java programs, conforming to the JaMoPP meta-model [2], by transforming them into a language-independent meta-model which represents the structure of the program and includes information about control and data flows. This solution makes use of the Eclectic transformation tool [1] to solve the four proposed tasks. The fourth task has bee...

A course in robotics is being piloted this semester at Purchase College/State University of New York. It was designed for its particular audience: upper-level students in the mathematics/computer science major and in the new media major as well as any other student who have satisfied the programming pre-requisite, possibly through general education courses. However, the general ideas motivating...

Some individuals have a greater capacity than others to carry out sophisticated information processing about emotions and emotion-relevant stimuli and to use this information as a guide to thinking and behavior. The authors have termed this set of abilities emotional intelligence (EI). Since the introduction of the concept, however, a schism has developed in which some researchers focus on EI a...
