In this report, we compute closed forms of M-polynomial, first and second Zagreb polynomials and forgotten polynomial for Jahangir graphs Jn,m for all values of m and n. From the M-polynomial, we recover many degree-based topological indices such as...
This paper presents a fully integrated on-chip switched-capacitor (SC) DC–DC converter that supports a programmable regulated power supply ranging from 2.6 to 3.2 V out of a 5 V input supply. The proposed 4-to-3 step-down topology utilizes two conven...
The Crank–Nicolson method can be used to solve the Black–Scholes partial differential equation in one-dimension when both accuracy and stability is of concern. In multi-dimensions, however, discretizing the computational grid with a Crank–Nicolson sc...
In the Internet of Things (IoT) networking, numerous objects are connected to a network. They sense events and deliver the sensed information to the cloud. A lot of data is generated in the IoT network, and servers in the cloud gather the sensed data...
A simplified Keller–Segel model is studied by means of Lie symmetry based approaches. It is shown that a (1 + 2)-dimensional Keller–Segel type system, together with the correctly-specified boundary and/or initial conditions, is invariant with respect...
For the mean curvature vector field
A novel orthogonal multi-swarm cooperative particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm with a particle trajectory knowledge base is presented in this paper. Different from the traditional PSO algorithms and other variants of PSO, the proposed orthogo...
In this paper, we discuss stochastic comparisons of lifetimes of series and parallel systems with heterogeneous Fréchet components in terms of the usual stochastic order, reversed hazard rate order and likelihood ratio order. The partial results esta...
This study develops a model for essay scoring and article relevancy. Essay scoring is a costly process when we consider the time spent by an evaluator. It may lead to inequalities of the effort by various evaluators to apply the same evaluation crite...
Infrastructure as a service with desktops (DIaaS) based on the extensible mark-up language (XML) is herein proposed to utilize surplus resources. DIaaS is a traditional surplus-resource integrated management technology. It is designed to provide fast...
The improved version of the author’s previously declared asymmetric cipher protocol based on matrix power function (MPF) is presented. Proposed modification avoids discrete logarithm attack (DLA) which could be applied to the previously declared prot...
The Zagreb eccentricity indices are the eccentricity reformulation of the Zagreb indices. Let
The recent discovery of boron triangular nanotubes competes with carbon in many respects. The closed form of M‐polynomial of nanotubes produces closed forms of many degree‐based topological indices which are numerical parameters of the structure and,...
A topological index of graph G is a numerical parameter related to G, which characterizes its topology and is preserved under isomorphism of graphs. Properties of the chemical compounds and topological indices are correlated. In this report, we compu...
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) with auto-pilot capabilities are often used for surveillance and patrol. Pilots set the flight points on a map in order to navigate to the imaging point where surveillance or patrolling is required. However, there is t...
Diffusion-limited erosion is a distinct universality class of fluctuating interfaces. Although its dynamical exponent
State of health (SOH) prediction in Li-ion batteries plays an important role in intelligent battery management systems (BMS). However, the existence of capacity regeneration phenomena remains a great challenge for accurately predicting the battery SO...
Reduction operators, i.e., the operators of nonclassical (or conditional) symmetry of a class of variable coefficient nonlinear wave equations with power nonlinearities, are investigated within the framework of a singular reduction operator. A classi...
