Transient analysis and synthesis of linear circuits using constraint logic programming

In this paper describes the design of a transient analysis program for linear circuits and its implementation in a Constraint Logic Programming language, CLP(R). The transient analysis program parses the input circuit description into a network graph, analyses its semantic correctness and then performs the transient analysis. The test results show that the program is at least 97% accurate when run at two decimal places. We have also compared the performance of our program with a commercial package implemented in an imperative language. The advantages of implementing the analysis program in a CLP language include: quick construction and ease of maintenance. We also report on the synthesis of generation of a circuit with given transient characteristics

Transformations between HCLP and PCSP

We present a general methodology for transforming between HCLP and PCSP in both directions. HCLP and PCSP each have advantages when modelling problems, and each have advantages when implementing models and solving them. Using the work presented in this paper, the appropriate paradigm can be used for each of these steps, with a meaning-preserving transformation in between if necessary

Over-Constrained Systems in CLP and CSP

This thesis is concerned with constraint-based logical and computational frameworks for resolving and relaxing over-constrained systems. The context is provided by two such frameworks, Hierarchical Constraint Logic Programming (HCLP) and Partial Constraint Satisfaction Problem techniques (PCSP), both of which have been extensively discussed in the literature. Our work is driven by the reasons why over-constrained systems arise, the characteristics of the ‘ideal’ paradigm for resolving them, and the issue of compositionality which is very important in general if we wish to examine large systems by examining and then combining smaller parts. We abstract away from programming language issues in order to focus on constraint solving. The main original work of this thesis is divided into three parts. Firstly we present a complete method for transforming between the HCLP and PCSP representations of a problem, thus showing that theoretically they have equivalent expressive power. Secondly, having discussed compositionality in general, we present a two-stage variant of HCLP; the first stage is compositional but calculates a superset of the solutions we expect from HCLP. The second stage removes precisely those solutions which are not acceptable to HCLP, but at the cost of re-introducing HCLP’s non-compositional behaviour. We also discuss the compositional aspects of PCSP. The third part of this thesis presents Gocs, our system which allows the use of both the HCLP and PCSP approaches to problem relaxation and ordering. The Gocs integrated framework has HCLP and PCSP as special cases and also subsumes all of their separate advantages, when considering the characteristics of the ideal system for relaxing and resolving over-constrained problems. We present examples throughout the thesis, some of which are comparative and so may be used to substantiate our claims. Finally, we present conclusions and discuss further work

N-Methylimidazole Promotes The Reaction Of Homophthalic Anhydride With Imines

The addition of N-methylimidazole (NMI) to the reaction of homophthalic anhydride with imines such as pyridine-3-carboxaldehyde-N-trifluoroethylimine (9) reduces the amount of elimination byproduct and improves the yield of the formal cycloadduct, tetrahydroisoquinolonic carboxylate 10. Carboxanilides of such compounds are of interest as potential antimalarial agents. A mechanism that rationalizes the role of NMI is proposed, and a gram-scale procedure for the synthesis and resolution of 10 is also described
