Considering the manufacturing and packaging process, three-dimensional integrated circuits design often requires irregular chip structures. Three-dimensional with structures can facilitate differentiated reduce costs. Highly complex through-silicon vias have not been considered in past thermal modeling analysis of irregularly structured circuits. Thus, a detailed model three-layer 3D circuit mi...

In this paper we present a data-parallel language called MPL, for which the basic data structure is the graph. The purpose of this language is to program numerical algorithms that use irregular data, and to allow them to execute on distributed memory MIMD machines. We deene the graph data structure and give some examples of how irregular data structures can be described from graphs with our app...

although treated properly for epilepsy, a number of epileptic children have intractable seizures and about 5-10 per cent of them do not respond to anti -epileptic drugs. in the years 1986-1996 about 10,000 epileptic patients were treated in the children's medical center in tehran. a retrospective study of their medical records revealed that 41 of them had intractable seizures. i of these 4...

Mass spring systems (MSS) are frequently used to simulate deformable objects because of their conceptual simplicity and computational speed. Unfortunately, the model parameters (spring coefficients, masses) are not related to material constitutive laws in an obvious way. In our earlier work we proposed a method, which can be used to relate the parameters of the MSS to constitutive models, often...

We present a volumetric method that can e ciently create triangular meshes from 3-D geometric data. This data can be presented in the form of images, pro les or unordered points. The mesh model can be created at di erent resolutions and can also be closed to make a true volumetric model.

This paper describes pertinent digital terrain model data structures, namely, grid/raster, quadtree, and triangular irregular network. A basic concept of DIM data structure is also explained. The aspects of TIN storage, TIN data structure conversion, advantages and disadvantages of each structure are discussed. A complete data structure conversion program is also presented. n. 1.0 INTRODUCTION ...
