 A survey on the approximation properties of Schurer-Stancu operators Author: Dan Bărbosu Abstract: The paper is a survey of some results obtained by the author in the last two years, concerning approximation properties of Schurer-Stancu operators.PDF | DVI | No. of downloads: 658 Full access PDF | Obituary: Gheorghe Micula (1943-2003) Author: Nicolae Pop / Andrei Vernescu Abstract: No. of downloads: Full access PDF | The connection between the implicit function theorem and the existence theorem for differential equations Author: Iulian Coroian Abstract: The paper presents a variant of implicit function theorem, as a corollary of existence theorem for solutions of a first order system of partial differential equations. This results is then extend to the case of implicit function theorem for functions of several independent variables.PDF | DVI | No. of downloads: 424 Full access PDF | DVI | PS | A property of the convolution of two $\phi$-convex functions Author: Gabriela Cristescu Abstract: The convolution of two $\varphi$-convex functions is estimated by means of an inequality of Hadamard type. The sharpness of this inequality is discussed. As consequence, few inequalities for the convolution of two classically convex functions are obtained, providing us with a possibility of comparing the convolution product of two functions with their ordinary product, in the case of a class of convex functions.PDF | DVI | No. of downloads: 417 Full access PDF | Advanced Object Database Design Techniques Author: Adrian Sergiu Darabant / Alina Câmpan Abstract: Class fragmentation is an important task in the design of Distributed Object Oriented Databases (DOOD). However, fragmentation in DOOD is still at its beginnings and mostly adapted from the relational approaches. In this paper we propose an alternative approach for horizontal fragmentation of DOOD. Our method uses two different AI clustering techniques for partitioning class instances into fragments: the agglomerative hierarchical method and the k-means centroid based method. Class objects are modelled in a vector space; similarity be- tween objects is computed using different measures. Finally, we provide quality and performance evaluations using a partition evaluator function .PDF | No. of downloads: 248 Full access PDF | DVI | PS | The orthogonality principle and conditional densities Author: Cristina Ioana Fătu Abstract: PDF | No. of downloads: 246 Full access PDF | A New Approach of Genetic Chromodynamics Author: Anca Gog / Dan Dumitrescu Abstract: Genetic Algorithms are general purpose optimization/search techniques relying on a biological metaphor. They usually detect a unique optimum, but many real world prob- lems need multiple optima. Genetic Chromodynamics is a strategy for preventing premature convergence and detecting multiple optimal solutions. A new technique of applying genetic operators is proposed. The Parallel Mutation Based Genetic Chromodynamics (PMGC) improves the local search from the standard approach and combines it with the global search, by using an appropriate mutation strategy.PDF | No. of downloads: 235 Full access PDF | Another General Fixed Point Principles Author: Andrei Horvat-Marc / Mădălina Berinde Abstract: In the terms of fixed point structures two general fixed point principle was given by I. A. Rus ([3], [4]). In this paper we establish another fixed point principles in terms of fixed point structures.PDF | No. of downloads: 267 Full access PDF | On an information divergence measure and information inequalities Author: Pranesh Kumar / Laura Hunter Abstract: Information divergence measures are often useful for comparing two probability distributions. An information divergence measure is suggested. This measure is symmetric in respect of the probability distributions and belongs to the well known class of Csisz´ar’s f-divergences. Its properties are studied and bounds in terms of often used information divergences are obtained. A numerical illustration based on symmetric and asymmetric probability distributions compares some of these divergence measures.PDF | No. of downloads: 268 Full access PDF | Numerical experiment with the embedded Runge-Kuta formulae of the 6th order to the 5th order Author: Marcela Lascsakova / Vladimir Penjak Abstract: PDF | No. of downloads: 231 Full access PDF | Very well-covered graphs with log-concave independence polynomials Author: Vadim E. Levit / Eugen Mândrescu Abstract: PDF | No. of downloads: 256 Full access PDF | Reliability of a system with renewable components and fast repair Author: Bogdan Munteanu Abstract: We present several results concerning on the ergodicity property of the birth and death processes with application in reliability theory, in other words we investigate the convergence in distribution of lifetime and repair time to a standard exponential random variable.PDF | No. of downloads: 234 Full access PDF | On some relations on n-monoids Author: Maria Sânziana Pop / Adina Pop Abstract: In this paper we introduce the notion of n-monoid, n > 2, and we generalize for n-monoids two relations defined by F. Wehrung on the binary case. These relations can be interpreted as a ”distance” between a n-monoid and the set of n-groups.PDF | No. of downloads: 255 Full access PDF | A quadratic programming method for saddle point formulations in contact problems with friction Author: Nicolae Pop / Ioana Zelina Abstract: The paper is concerned with the numerical solution of the quasi-variational in- equality modelling a contact problem with Coulomb friction. After discretization of the problem by mixed finite elements and with Lagrangian formulation of the problem by choosing appropri- ate multipliers, the duality approach is improved by splitting the normal and tangential stresses. The novelty of our approach in the present paper consists in the splitting of the normal stress and tangential stress, which leads to a better convergence of the solution, due to a better conditioned stiffness matrix. This better conditioned matrix is based on the fact that these blocks diagonal matrices obtained, contain coefficients of the same size order. For the saddle point formulation of the problem, using static condensation, we obtain a quadratic programming problem. We use Gauss-Seidel iterations to approximate the solution of this problem.PDF | No. of downloads: 217 Full access PDF | About the first order modulus of smoothness Author: Ovidiu T. Pop Abstract: PDF | No. of downloads: 254 Full access PDF | Efficient algorithms for the Generalized Minimum Spanning Tree Problem Author: Petrică Claudiu Pop / Ioana Zelina / Corina Pop Sitar Abstract: We consider a generalization of the classical minimum spanning tree problem called the generalized minimum spanning tree problem and denoted by GMST problem. It is known that the GMST problem belongs to the hard core of NP-hard problems. The aim of this paper is to present an exact exponential time algorithm for the GMST problem as well three efficient algorithms, two of them based on Prim’s and Kruskal’s algorithms for the minimum spanning tree problem and one based on the local global approach. These three algorithms are implemented and computational results are reported for many instances of the problem.PDF | No. of downloads: 243 Full access PDF | Order relation on the solutions sets of Z-conditional Cauchy equations on groups Author: Vasile Pop Abstract: PDF | No. of downloads: 218 Full access PDF | Fixed points, upper and lower fixed points: abstract Gronwall lemmas Author: Ioan A.

These formulas are of Gauss-Christoffel-Stancu type. The coordinates of the Gaussian nodes are determined by using the roots of the orthogonal polynomials of Christoffel-Szego.PDF | No. of downloads: 201 Full access PDF |
