naphthol isomers were simultaneously and spectrophotometrically determined in wastewater, using a model based on net analyte signal (nas). the calibration method used is a variation of the original hybrid linear analysis method as proposed by goicoechea and olivieri (hla/go). owing to spectral interferences, the simultaneous determination of mixtures of naphthol isomers, using a spectrophotomet...

In this paper we consider how the performance of wavelength routed networks depends on node capabilities, such as the wavelength selection and the wavelength conversion. For this purpose we propose a modified version of the shortest path algorithm for the wavelength graph (SPAWG), where "virtual links" are added for modeling the utilization and the cost of these node capabilities. Numerical res...

This paper introduces Tabu Search in analytical chemistry by applying it to wavelength selection. Tabu Search is a deterministic global optimization technique loosely based on concepts from artificial intelligence. Wavelength selection is a method which can be used for improving the quality of calibration models. Tabu Search uses basic, problem-specific operators to explore a search space, and ...
