The mth Chebyshev polynomial of a square matrix A is the monic polynomial that minimizes the matrix 2-norm of p(A) over all monic polynomials p(z) of degree m. This polynomial is u...
We develop a general theory of the swelling kinetics of polymer gels, with the view that a polymer gel is a two-phase fluid. The model we propose is a free boundary problem and ca...

This paper presents the notion of Semantic Associations as complex relationships between resource entities. These relationships capture both a connectivity of entities as well as ...
One of the main objectives of developing component-based software systems is to enable efficient building of systems through the integration of components. All component models def...
