Computer networks stability independence of the queuing delays
2015
Communication in intelligent computer networks is an indispensible attribute of the dataflow quality in Web traffic. We propose a model that investigates intelligent computer networks stability while specifying its limits. Packet queuing delay affects the performance of the network, and especially its stability. If the network is presented as a dynamic system in block diagram form, we compute a transfer function and determine the quasi-polynomial system. The characteristic polynomial distribution of zeros of complex variable quasi-plane determines the boundaries of the network stability. The approach relies on estimation of the network system's transfer functions and its quasi-polynomial. C…
Simulation of parallel mechanisms for motion cueing generation in vehicle simulators using AM-FM bi-modulated signals
2018
Abstract The use of robotic motion platforms in vehicle simulators is relatively common. However, the process of testing and tuning the so-called washout algorithms, used for motion cueing generation in motion-based vehicle simulators, is complex. This process can be reduced in cost, simplified, improved, shortened and performed safer if virtual motion platforms are used instead of real devices. This paper deals with identifying a method to perform a fast but reliable simulation of parallel mechanisms to be used for motion cueing generation. The method relies on the use of Laplacian polynomial transfer function models by means of using AM-FM bi-modulated signals as reference inputs to achie…
Generalized wavelets design using Kernel methods. Application to signal processing
2013
Abstract Multiresolution representations of data are powerful tools in signal processing. In Harten’s framework, multiresolution transforms are defined by predicting finer resolution levels of information from coarser ones using an operator, called the prediction operator, and defining details (or wavelet coefficients) that are the difference between the exact values and the predicted values. In this paper we present a multiresolution scheme using local polynomial regression theory in order to design a more accurate prediction operator. The stability of the scheme is proved and the order of the method is calculated. Finally, some results are presented comparing our method with the classical…

Reply to comment by C. Morhange, C. Flaux, P.A. Pirazzoli, M.B. Carre on “Holocene Sea level Change in Malta”
2013
The pits of Birzebbugia are located near the present-day mean sea level, and some are partially submerged. They were dated using pottery discovered in an archaeological site close to the coast, dated to the Bronze Age (Zammit, 1928; Abela, 1999). As they have been interpreted as sites for the retting of flax, during their utilization they should have remained dry and the sea could not submerge them. This is the reason why these structures are not directly related to the sea level, as suggested by Biolchi et al. (2011), so they represent an upper limit.
Algebras with intermediate growth of the codimensions
2006
AbstractLet F be a field of characteristic zero and let A be an F-algebra. The polynomial identities satisfied by A can be measured through the asymptotic behavior of the sequence of codimensions and the sequence of colengths of A. For finite dimensional algebras we show that the colength sequence of A is polynomially bounded and the codimension sequence cannot have intermediate growth. We then prove that for general nonassociative algebras intermediate growth of the codimensions is allowed. In fact, for any real number 0<β<1, we construct an algebra A whose sequence of codimensions grows like nnβ.
Varieties of Algebras with Superinvolution of Almost Polynomial Growth
2015
Let A be an associative algebra with superinvolution ∗ over a field of characteristic zero and let $c_{n}^{\ast }(A)$ be its sequence of corresponding ∗-codimensions. In case A is finite dimensional, we prove that such sequence is polynomially bounded if and only if the variety generated by A does not contain three explicitly described algebras with superinvolution. As a consequence we find out that no intermediate growth of the ∗-codimensions between polynomial and exponential is allowed.
Asymptotics for Capelli polynomials with involution
2021
Let F be the free associative algebra with involution ∗ over a field F of characteristic zero. We study the asymptotic behavior of the sequence of ∗- codimensions of the T-∗-ideal Γ∗ M+1,L+1 of F generated by the ∗-Capelli polynomials Cap∗ M+1[Y, X] and Cap∗ L+1[Z, X] alternanting on M + 1 symmetric variables and L + 1 skew variables, respectively. It is well known that, if F is an algebraic closed field of characteristic zero, every finite dimensional ∗-simple algebra is isomorphic to one of the following algebras: · (Mk(F ), t) the algebra of k × k matrices with the transpose involution; · (M2m(F ), s) the algebra of 2m × 2m matrices with the symplectic involution; · (Mh(F ) ⊕ Mh(F )op, e…
Preliminary results on antimicrobial activity of Rhynchophorous ferrugineus hemolymph
2011
Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), known as the Red Palm Weevil (RPW) and accidentally introduced in the Mediterranean areas, is considered a quarantine pest for tree palms especially in the urban environment. In order to understand the relationship among potential pathogens and RPW several studies were carried out on RPW immune system. Here we report the results of a preliminary study undertaken to investigate the effect of naturally occurring antimicrobial activities present both in the cell free hemolymph and in hemocytes lysate supernatant of RPW. The hemolymph was extracted from the older larvae sampled from infested palm trees. The protein fractions were extracted …
The Impact of Climate, Resource Availability, Natural Disturbances and Human Subsistence Strategies on Sicilian Landscape Dynamics During the Holocene
2022
This paper presents a multidisciplinary summary of the most recent discoveries and hypotheses concerning factors driving the human subsistence economy and landscape shaping in Sicily during the Holocene. A number of scientific papers have recently pointed out the key role played by paleogeography, resource (water, food) availability and natural disturbances (volcanic eruptions, tsunamis) in local human activities. Modern anthropology and archaeology increasingly use biological remains (e.g. soils, bones, wood, plant macroremains, pollen) to better understand how human communities managed to survive and spread. Likewise, refined reconstructions of past human demographic fluxes and socio-econ…
