This paper discusses the algorithms for achieving global states and self-stabilization for communication protocols. It first describes a primary algorithm including its suitability for achieving global states and limitation of self-stabilization for communication protocols. and then presents an impr...

Many practical systems in physics, biology, engineering and information science exhibit impulsive dynamical behaviors due to abrupt changes at certain instants during the dynamical processes. The problems of finite-time stability analysis are investigated for a class of Markovian switching stochasti...

Due to the exploding growth in the number of web services, mashup has emerged as a service composition technique to reuse existing services and create new applications with the least amount of effort. Service recommendation is essential to facilitate mashup developers locating desired component serv...

Very Long Instruction Word (VLIW) architectures are commonly used in application-specific domains due to their parallelism and low-power characteristics. Recently, parameterization of such architectures allows for runtime adaptation of the issue-width to match the inherent Instruction Level Parallel...

Multi-level converters have been used extensively in modern industry which calls for energy conversion with high-power and high-or medium-voltage. Because of its modularity and scalability, the multi-level converter with modular structure can be extended to different voltage levels and has a variety...
