    • Brenti, Francesco; Mongelli, Pietro; Sentinelli, Paolo (Elsevier, 2016)
      We study the parabolic Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials for the quasi-minuscule quotients of Weyl groups. We give explicit closed combinatorial formulas for the parabolic Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials of type q. Our study implies ...
    • Briceño Zuluaga, F.; Castagna, A.; Rutllant Costa, José; Flores Aqueveque, V.; Caquineau, S.; Sifeddine, A.; Velazco, F.; Gutierrez, D.; Cardich, J. (Elsevier, 2017)
      Dust storms that develop along the Pisco-Ica desert in Southern Peru, locally known as "Paracas" winds have ecological, health and economic repercussions. Here we identify dust sources through MODIS (Moderate Resolution ...
    • Scholliers, Christopher; Tanter, Éric Pierre; Meuter, Wolfgang de (Elsevier, 2014)
      While the actor model of concurrency is well appreciated for its ease of use, its scalability is often criticized. Indeed, the fact that execution within an actor is sequential prevents certain actor systems to take ...
    • Fuentes Sepúlveda, José; Navarro, Gonzalo; Nekrich, Yakov (Elsevier, 2020)
      The Burrows-Wheeler Transform (BWT) has become since its introduction a key tool for representing large text collections in compressed space while supporting indexed searching: on a text of length n over an alphabet of ...
    • Rivara Zúñiga, María Cecilia; Calderón, Carlo; Fedorov, Andriy; Chrisochoides, Nikos (SPRINGER, 2006-09)
      We present a practical and stable algorithm for the parallel refinement of tetrahedral meshes. The algorithm is based on the refinement of terminal-edges and associated terminal stars. A terminal-edge is a special edge in ...
    • Navarro, Cristóbal A.; Canfora, Fabrizio; Hitschfeld Kahler, Nancy; Navarro, Gonzalo (Elsevier, 2014-10-18)
      The computational cost of transfer matrix methods for the Potts model is related to the question in how many ways can two layers of a lattice be connected? Answering the question leads to the generation of a combinatorial ...
    • Mariman, Juan J.; Burgos, Pablo; Maldonado Arbogast, Pedro (Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2019)
      © 2018 Federation of European Neuroscience Societies and John Wiley & Sons Ltd During the control of reaching movements, a key contribution of the visual system is the localization of relevant environmental targets. In ...
    • Caromel, Denis; Mateu Brûle, Luis; Pothier, Guillaume; Tanter, Éric Pierre (JOHN WILEY, 2008-08-25)
      Coordination of parallel activities on a shared memory machine is a crucial issue for modern software, even more with the advent of multi-core processors. Unfortunately, traditional concurrency abstractions force programmers ...
    • Yu, Xiang; Qiao, Yu; Li, Qingpeng; Xu, Gang; Kang, Chuanxiong; Estévez Montero, Claudio; Deng, Chengzhi; Wang, Shengqian (Wiley, 2020)
      Comprehensive learning particle swarm optimization (CLPSO) is a powerful metaheuristic for global optimization. This paper studies parallelizing CLPSO by open computing language (OpenCL) on the integrated Intel HD Graphics ...
    • Cumsille, Patricio; Godoy, Matías; Gerdtzen, Ziomara P.; Conca, Carlos (Public Library of Science, 2019)
      In this work we develop a general mathematical model and devise a practical identifiability approach for gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) metastasis to the liver, with the aim of quantitatively describing therapy ...
    • Natesan, Srinivasan; Jayakumar, J.; Vigo Aguiar, J. (ELSEVIER, 2003-09-01)
      This article presents a numerical method to solve singularly perturbed turning point problems exhibiting two exponential boundary layers. Classical finite-difference schemes do not yield parameter uniform convergent results ...
    • Langer, M.; Wagner, K.; Sebastian, T.; Huebner, R.; Grenzer, J.; Wang, Yutian; Kubota, T.; Schneider, T.; Stienen, S.; Lenz, K.; Schultheiss, H.; Lindner, J.; Takanashi, K.; Arias Federici, Rodrigo; Fassbender, J. (AMER INST PHYSICS, 2016)
      An all-electrical method is presented to determine the exchange constant of magnetic thin films using ferromagnetic resonance. For films of 20 nm thickness and below, the determination of the exchange constant A, a fundamental ...
    • Barceló Baeza, Pablo; Reutter, Juan; Libkin, Leonid (Elsevier, 2013)
      We study regular expressions that use variables, or parameters, which are interpreted as alphabet letters. We consider two classes of languages denoted by such expressions: under the possibility semantics, a word belongs ...
    • Díaz Hernández, Juan José; Martínez Budría, Eduardo; Jara Díaz, Sergio (SPRINGER, 2008-12)
      Port workers services have been usually heavily regulated and reserved exclusively for a special kind of workers, dockworkers, which seems to have been the cause of serious inefficiencies worldwide. During the eighties, ...
    • Peralta Braz, Patricio; Ruiz García, Rafael; Natarajan, Sundaram; Atroshchenko, Elena (Elsevier, 2020)
      Piezo-electric energy harvesters (PEHs) are widely used to recycle waste vibrations for pow-ering small electronic devices. In this work, the performance of PEHs of non-conventional shapes is studied with the aim to optimize ...
    • Sarmiento, Cristobal; Cardemil Iglesias, José; Díaz, Andrés; Barraza, Rodrigo (Elsevier, 2018-07-25)
      Several authors have reported in the literature the benefits of transcritical carbon dioxide regenerative Rankine power cycles using low - and medium - temperature sources. However, their technical potential when driven ...
    • Santis, Patricio; Sáez, Doris; Cárdenas, Roberto; Núñez, Alfredo (Elsevier Ltd, 2019)
      Modulated model predictive control (M 2 PC) allows fixed switching frequency operation of power converters, producing lower ripple and lower total harmonic distortion (THD) in the output signals than those obtained using ...
