"For time-invariant (nonimpulsive) systems, it is already well-known that the input-to-state stability (ISS) property is strictly stronger than integral input-to-state stability (iISS). Very recently, we have shown that ...

"In this paper we study the stability of nonlinear and time-varying switched systems under restricted switching. We approach the problem by decomposing the system dynamics into a nominal-like part and a perturbationlike ...

"We provide a Lyapunov-function-based method for establishing different types of uniform input-to-state stability (ISS) for time-varying impulsive systems. The method generalizes to impulsive systems with inputs the well...

The purpose of this paper is to examine how the economic instability in Argentina and Brazil affected key Uruguayan variables during the period 1974-1997, and to identify the channels through which regional shocks were t...

We present a full-sky 100 km map that is a reprocessed composite of the COBE/DIRBE and IRAS/ ISSA maps, with the zodiacal foreground and conrmed point sources removed. Before using the ISSA maps, we remove the remaining ...

In this paper, we propose an efficient diagnosis scheme to detect and locate the switching network defects/faults in reconfigurable array architecture. This diagnosis scheme performs the test of switching network based o...

A loosely coupled distributed system is composed by nodes, usually heterogenous, connected by a network. These systems have enormous aggregate computing potential. However most of this potential is not realized unless th...

The failure of the Fifth Ministerial Conference in Cancun2 was not only a setback for the Doha Round, but also for the World Trade Organization’s efforts to enhance international trade as means to growth and developmen...

UML (Unified Modeling Language) is one of the most used languages to specify and document informatics applications. However, UML is a generalpurpose language, so it often lacks of elements to model and represent concrete...

In wireless mobile ad hoc networks, packet delivery is achieved through two closely related network-layer operations: ad hoc routing and packet forwarding. As a result any security solution should encompass the protectio...

The protection and enforcement of intellectual property rights for digital media has become an important issue in many countries of the world. There is increase in the popularity and accessibility of the Internet to reco...

The ESC Guidelines represent the views of the ESC and were produced after careful consideration of the scientific and medical knowledge and the evidence available at the time of their publication.The ESC is not responsib...

The advancement in wireless communications and electronics has enabled the development of low-cost sensor networks. The sensor networks can be used for various application areas (e.g., health, military, home). For differ...

In this paper we are concerned with the practical issues of working with data sets common to finance, statistics, and other related fields. pandas is a new library which aims to facilitate working with these data sets an...

An up-to-date handbook on conceptual and methodological issues relevant to the study of industrial and organizational behavior. Chapters contributed by leading experts from the academic and business communities cover sub...

BACKGROUND: RNA-Seq is revolutionizing the way transcript abundances are measured. A key challenge in transcript quantification from RNA-Seq data is the handling of reads that map to multiple genes or isoforms. This issu...

This review describes a new paradigm of electronics based on the spin degree of freedom of the electron. Either adding the spin degree of freedom to conventional charge-based electronic devices or using the spin alone ha...

Automated structure validation was introduced in chemical crystallography about 12 years ago as a tool to assist practitioners with the exponential growth in crystal structure analyses. Validation has since evolved into ...
