Since the rst programming language taught to students of the faculty of Applied Sciences is Scheme We brie y describe our preference for Scheme and give an overview of the course The controversial language choice induced a lot of reactions…

The purpose of this paper is to describe how some theorems about constructions in categories can be seen as a way of doing generic programming. No prior knowledge of category theory is required to understand the paper.
We explore the…

This Ph.D. thesis has covered the scientific issues of defect reactions involving dopants and impurities in Si, and the applications of this knowledge to reactive ion etching (RIE) and Fe gettering processes. The reactions among self-interstitials (Sii), vacancies (V), impurities…

This paper proposes three tests to determine whether a given nonlinear device noise model
is in agreement with accepted thermodynamic principles. These tests are applied to several
models. One conclusion is that every Gaussian noise model for any nonlinear device…

Effective document retrieval using domain knowledge and semantics is one of the major challenges in Information Retrieval. Over the last years, there has been a growing interest in ontologies as an artifact for human knowledge representation and a critical component…
