In this paper, we present a fast and accurate model for unsteady pressure-driven flows in circular microchannels of variable cross-section. The model is developed for channels of small diameter to length ratio, but allows ...

The Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem (CVRP) is a combinatorial optimization problem where a fleet of delivery vehicles must service known customer demands from a common depot at a minimum transit cost without exceeding ...

The optimal regression testing problem is one of determining the minimum number of test cases needed for revalidating modified software in the maintenance phase. We present two natural optimization algorithms, namely, a ...

We worked on two physical optimization algorithms, Mean Field Annealing and Simulated Tempering, to solve the data mapping problem on multicomputers. We studied the effects of user defined parameters on MFA's behavior. ...

This contribution report on recent scientific methodologies concerning compressible gas-liquid two-phase mixture. Within this context, a one-dimensional set of three partial differential equations that takes account of the ...

While translating, several factors must be considered, such as cultural differences, sentence structure, word choice, etc. Through this article, we aim to study the challenges of translating children’s songs and how rhythm ...

The need to move various items from one location to another has become a primary need of most companies. Items are usually boxed and arranged inside containers to be transported from one location to the other. Most companies ...

Although mobile devices have been considerably upgraded to more powerful terminals, yet their lightness feature still impose intrinsic limitations in their computation capability, storage capacity and battery lifetime. ...

Surveillance in modern western societies has always been a challenge to the foundation of these democratic liberal societies. The line that separates acts of surveillance for the purpose of national security from illegitimate ...
