A compact high-power yellow pulsed laser has been. demonstrated by use of intracavity sum-frequency mixing in a diode-end-pumped Q-switched Nd:YVO4 dual-wavelength laser. A three-mirror configuration forming two separate laser cavities is used to optimize the gain match for simultaneous dual-wavelength emission in Q-switched operation. Under the optimum cavity-length condition, the highest yellow average power is 340 mW and the peak power is 2 kW, obtained at 12.5 W of pump power. (C) 2002 Optical Society of America.

Multimedia technology has played an important role in modern computing because it offers more natural and user-friendly interactions with an automated system. This is particularly true for systems utilizing graphical, icon or window-based input and output. Multimedia technology also facilitates "reuse" more naturally, since the basic components and functions of presentation and animation can be reused for several different animation scenarios. This is evidenced by the rapid prototyping capability of computer and video games where although the characters and story lines change, the basic animation remains constant. In this paper we utilize multimedia technology for eliciting requirements of software systems, particularly those systems that utilize windows- (or graphical)-based interactions with the user. Our methodology will implicitly emphasize reuse since in our approach reusable components include not only code and documents, but also voice narration, animation sequences and message mechanisms. We call such software components as multimedia reusable components (MRCs). Using MRCs. one can view software requirements instead of reading textual representation of the requirements.

Bi12TiO20 (BTO) single crystals nominally pure and doped with ruthenium are grown by top-seeded solution growth method. The effect of ruthenium concentration on optical and photorefractive properties is studied. Strong influence of doping on these properties is observed. It is shown that optical transmission of crystal samples with higher ruthenium content is shifted to the near IR spectral region, while the absorption coefficient is considerably increased. The optical activity of Ru doped crystals is further reduced in comparison with undoped BTO. Photochromic effect is observed in strongly doped crystal. Photorefractive properties are experimentally investigated using two-beam coupling. Response time and diffraction efficiency are changed with ruthenium content. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.

An ad hoc network is a cooperative engagement of a collection of mobile hosts that requires no intervening of any centralized access point or existing infrastructure, Each mobile host, operating as a specialized router, forwards packets from other mobile hosts. The possibility of fast movement of mobile hosts means network topologies may change frequently. Thus, applying traditional routing schemes to ad hoc networks is inappropriate. In this paper, we present an efficient routing protocol called the multiple next hops (MNH) routing protocol, which is based on the ad hoc on-demand distance vector (AODV) routing protocol for ad hoc networks. The proposed MNH protocol establishes multiple paths for a route discovery procedure, thus conserving network bandwidth and reducing route reconstruction times when routing paths fail. Numerical experiments are given to show the effectiveness of the MNH routing protocol. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

This paper proposes a fuzzy seasonal ARIMA (FSARIMA) forecasting model, which combines the advantages of the seasonal time series ARIMA (SARIMA) model and the fuzzy regression model. It is used to forecast two seasonal time series data of the total production value of the Taiwan machinery industry and the soft drink time series. The intention of this paper is,to provide business which are affected by diversified management with a new method to conduct short-term forecasting. This model includes both interval models with interval parameters and the possible distribution of future value. Based on the results of practical application, it can be shown that this model makes good forecasts and is realistic. Furthermore, this model makes it possible for decision makers to forecast the best and worst estimates based on fewer observations than the SARIMA model. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.

Structured silicates/fluorinated polyimide nanocomposites display excellent water-absorption retardation behavior. This leads to lower leakage-current densities and lower dielectric constants under higher humidity conditions than those of the pristine fluorinated polyimides. Part of the chemical structure of the lavered silicate used in this work is shown in the Figure.

We construct the CPn model on fuzzy sphere. The Bogomolny bound is saturated by (anti-)self-dual solitons and the general solutions of BPS equation are constructed. The dimension of moduli space describing the BPS solution on fuzzy sphere is exactly the same as that of the commutative sphere or the (noncommutative) plane. We show that in the soliton backgrounds, the number of zero modes of Dirac operator on fuzzy sphere, Atiyah-Singer index, is exactly given by the topological charge of the background solitons.

Real index-guided buried ridge InGaAlP 650 nm band lasers with p(+)-n(+) buried tunnel junctions are demonstrated. Located on top of the buried ridges, the tunnel junctions, made of InGaAs/GaAs superlattices with modulation doping, were introduced as the current injection window areas. The large band gap In0.5Al0.5P layers were directly regrown around the ridges using metalorganic chemical vapor deposition to serve as the current blocking layers. Real index optical waveguiding in the lateral direction was also provided by the smaller refractive index of In0.5Al0.5P layers. The lasers showed lower threshold current and higher slope efficiency compared to conventional complex index-guided InGaAlP lasers with GaAs current blocking layers, and had low internal loss of about 5.4 cm(-1).

The effect of annealing temperature, especially at high temperatures, on the physical and electrical properties of Bi3.25La0.75Ti3O12 (BLT) thin films on Al2O3 (10 nm)/Si has been investigated. The width of memory window in capacitance-voltage curves for BLT/Al2O3/Si capacitors annealed at temperature range of 700 degreesC-950 degreesC increases with increasing annealing temperature. At the highest annealing temperature of 950 degreesC, a large ferroelectric memory window of 13 V is obtained under +/-15 V sweep voltage, and this large ferroelectric memory window should be related to the reduced leakage current. Owing to the excellent electrical properties, the high-temperature stable BLT/Al2O3/Si capacitor is compatible with current very large scale integrated technology process.

This study presents a model for obtaining the exact optimal solution of inventory replenishment policy problem. The proposed model, called the "two-equation model", includes two governing equations and a time-frequency algorithm: the first equation determines the optimal replenishment times for a specified number of replenishments; the second equation determines the optimal number of replenishments. The time-frequency algorithm includes two main procedures to solve the first and second equations. In contrast to many approximation approaches, this model exactly solves the first equation, a simultaneous non-linear equations system using a generalized matrix-based solver. This study also examines the classical no-shortage inventory replenishment policy for linear increasing and decreasing trend demand. According to these results, the solution given by the two-equation model is an exact solution. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

The dynamic behavior of a gyrostat system subjected to external disturbance is studied in this paper, By applying numerical results, phase diagrams, power spectrum, period-T maps, and Lyapunov exponents are presented to observe periodic and choatic motions. The effect of the parameters changed in the system can be found in the bifurcation and parametric diagrams. For global analysis, the basins of attraction of each attractor of the system are located by employing the modified interpolated cell mapping (MICM) method. Several methods, the delayed feedback control, the addition of constant torque, the addition of periodic force, the addition of periodic impulse torque, injection of dither signal control, adaptive control algorithm (ACA) control and bang-bang control are used to control chaos effectively. Finally, synchronization of chaos in the gyrostat system is studied. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd.

The miscibility behavior and specific interaction of phenolic resin with poly(acetoxystyrene) (PAS) blends were examined using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and solid-state NMR. This phenolic/PAS blend is fully miscible, as indicated by a single glass-transition temperature, due to the formation of inter-hydrogen bonding between the hydroxyl group of the phenolic resin and the carbonyl group of PAS. The DSC study indicates that this phase-separation exothermic peak area is closely related to the interaction between the components. Furthermore, C-13 solid-state NMR and FT-IR spectroscopies were used to study the extent of specific interaction with various compositions and degrees of inter- and intramolecular hydrogen bonding, Moreover, the inter-association equilibrium constant and the related enthalpy of this phenolic/PAS blend were determined and used to predict the free energy and fraction of the hydrogen bonding according to the Painter-Coleman association model.
