On the complexity of solving ordinary differential equations in terms of Puiseux series
We prove that the binary complexity of solving ordinary polynomial
differential equations in terms of Puiseux series is single exponential in the
number of terms in the series. Such a bound was given by Grigoriev [10] for
Riccatti differential polynomials associated to ordinary linear differential
operators. In this paper, we get the same bound for arbitrary differential
polynomials. The algorithm is based on a differential version of the
Newton-Puiseux procedure for algebraic equations
Performance enhancement of the photovoltaic cells system by using the pneumatic routers
Solar photovoltaic modules are of immense benefits to ordinary people in terms of
independent energy solutions and conventional fuel savings. However, due to the
inherent drawback of lower efficiencies per unit area, these technologies adoption rates
are very slow and face resistance from domestic consumers for widespread acceptance.
Thus, solar photovoltaic thermal hybrid technology was suggested, producing
electrical and thermal output from the same unit area. Unfortunately, the lower
individual efficiencies of the PV/T collector compared to their individual technologies
hinders the potential advantages of this hybrid technology. This is due to the low solar
energy absorption and high thermal resistance between the PV cell and the cooling
medium. This study aims to develop a novel photovoltaic thermal collector to evaluate
PVT performance using three rib configurations with pneumatic guiding devices. This
thereby reduced thermal resistance and improved performance using different angles
to increase system efficiency and reduce thermal losses resulting from increased
temperature. The channel was developed and designed in the new model in three
phases to study the improvement of heat transfer. The first phase is to test the
simulation of the pneumatic routers numbers in the ribs, while the second phase is to
test the simulation of the ribs numbers in the channel. Simulation analysis was
conducted using 3D simulation by ANSYS-Fluent software to determine the optimum
design of configurations in terms of the airflow channel. The results best from the
simulation test indicate that the PVT complex with seven polygons and five vectors
was the best design. The simulation results are shown in a combined PVT efficiency
of 70.86 % and electrical PVT efficiency of 11.22% with a mass flow rate of 0.17 kg/s
and solar irradiance of 1000 W /m². In the third phase, three different angles were
chosen for pneumatic routers tested experimentally to determine the best angle. All
configurations were set and tested experimentally outdoor under the Iraq climatic
conditions to ASHRAE standard at different air mass flow rates. Experimental results of a PV inboard consisting of pneumatic ribs and angle guides
with highest daily performance and electrical and thermal efficiency at angle guides
of 30 ° compared to 45 ° and 15 ° and an empty PVT collector tube at air mass flow
rate of (0.08- 0.17) kg/s. A good agreement was obtained when the 3D simulation and
experimental results were compared. It was the average difference in the outlet air
temperatures obtained in the numerical and experimental results from 6.18 % to
6.47 % and of the electrical and thermal efficiency from 5.25 % to 6.37 % respectivel
On Permutation Binomials over Finite Fields
Let be the finite field of characteristic containing elements and a binomial with coefficients in
this field. If some conditions on the gcd of an are satisfied then
this polynomial does not permute the elements of the field. We prove in
particular that if permutes , where
and , then , where , and that this bound of in term of only, is sharp. We
show as well how to obtain in certain cases a permutation binomial over a
subfield of from a permutation binomial over
New Method of Measuring TCP Performance of IP Network using Bio-computing
The measurement of performance of Internet Protocol IP network can be done by
Transmission Control Protocol TCP because it guarantees send data from one end
of the connection actually gets to the other end and in the same order it was
send, otherwise an error is reported. There are several methods to measure the
performance of TCP among these methods genetic algorithms, neural network, data
mining etc, all these methods have weakness and can't reach to correct measure
of TCP performance. This paper proposed a new method of measuring TCP
performance for real time IP network using Biocomputing, especially molecular
calculation because it provides wisdom results and it can exploit all
facilities of phylogentic analysis. Applying the new method at real time on
Biological Kurdish Messenger BIOKM model designed to measure the TCP
performance in two types of protocols File Transfer Protocol FTP and Internet
Relay Chat Daemon IRCD. This application gives very close result of TCP
performance comparing with TCP performance which obtains from Little's law
using same model (BIOKM), i.e. the different percentage of utilization (Busy or
traffic industry) and the idle time which are obtained from a new method base
on Bio-computing comparing with Little's law was (nearly) 0.13%.

Elliptic nets and elliptic curves
An elliptic divisibility sequence is an integer recurrence sequence
associated to an elliptic curve over the rationals together with a rational
point on that curve. In this paper we present a higher-dimensional analogue
over arbitrary base fields. Suppose E is an elliptic curve over a field K, and
P_1, ..., P_n are points on E defined over K. To this information we associate
an n-dimensional array of values in K satisfying a nonlinear recurrence
relation. Arrays satisfying this relation are called elliptic nets. We
demonstrate an explicit bijection between the set of elliptic nets and the set
of elliptic curves with specified points. We also obtain
Laurentness/integrality results for elliptic nets.Comment: 34 pages; several minor errors/typos corrected in v
