 Some applications of integral sums Author: P. Kortesi Abstract: The correct introduction of definite integrals plays an important role in teaching analysis. This paper is aimed to present one of the possible applications of definite integrals, which could serve the deeper understanding of the basic notion, to show how the basic definition ''is working''. The paper is partially supported by the didactical research cooperation due to the CEEPUS network H127.

Miclauș Abstract: In the twelve form textbooks ([2], [3]) are presented some groups of geometric transformations: homotheties, translations, rotations etc. In this paper we will present two geometric transformations and we will show their relationship to groups of complex functions of the same type, namely isomorphic structures: the group of the rotations of a polygon with n vertices and Klein's group. At the end, we will show that the type of the group of the rotations of a regular polygon with four vertices (the square) and Klein's group of geometric transformations exhaust all types of groups of order 4.

Miclauș Abstract: PDF | DVI | PS | No. of downloads: 443 Full access PDF | DVI | PS | Some remarks on orthogonal polynomials Author: Ovidiu T. Pop Abstract: In this article we demonstrate some general results, from which, through particularities, we obtain identities satisfied by Legendre's, Laguerre's and Hemite's polynomials.

Pop / Constantin Voicu Abstract: We will prove some inequalities between the elements of a right triangle.

Popa Abstract: Should mathematicians learn the Prolog language? Due to its ability of modeling algebraic structures having complex operations and its backtracking algorithm able to scan a search space looking for solutions, Prolog becomes a great tool to study complex algebraic structures. The model of interactions between compilers when computer scientists are attempting to bootstrap a system or to create a new language or a new compiler is such an algebraic structure. This paper tries to answer yes'' our previous question. PDF | DVI | PS | No. of downloads: 427 Full access PDF | DVI | PS | Danilovskaia's problem, revisited Author: R. Răducanu Abstract: The present paper describes a thermal shock problem on a semi-space within the frame of linear thermoelasticity. The analytical solution is obtained and two types of a finite difference numerical algorithm to solve the problem are also described. The solutions are discussed.

There are also presented some results of implementing a Borland C program for a linear differential equation with initial values.

This transform was chosen for efficiency, but has the major disadvantage that it does not localize the frequency components in space. Because of that, the image has to be partitioned prior transform, and the margins of the blocks become visible at high compression ratios. This problem is solved in the JPEG 2000 standard, which uses the Discrete Wavelet Transform. PDF | DVI | PS | No. of downloads: 428 Full access PDF | The Window Fourier Transform -- a suitable alternative for image compression? Author: Ovidiu Cosma Abstract: The Discrete Cosine Transform [6], [8] on which the best-known image compression schemes are based [7], [1], has the major disadvantage that it does not localize the frequency components in time. The Window Fourier Transform (WFT) [3], [4], [5] solves this problem, but has limitations related to the resolutions in time and frequency. This article contains a visual evaluation of the WFT characteristics.

IPng is designed as an evolutionary upgrade to the Internet Protocol and will, in fact, coexist with the older IPv4 for some time. This paper also reviews the features of the IPv6 protocol, the transition between today's IPv4 Internet and a future IPv6-based one, the structure of an IPv6 packet, the IPv6 header.

Palma Abstract: PDF | DVI | PS | No. of downloads: 444 Full access PDF | DVI | PS | A simulation of the action of terrestrial gravitation Author: Cristian Eduard Rusu Abstract: This paper is a simple illustration of how a low-degree-difficulty abstract formula, concerning a physical phenomenon, can be implemented in an interactive and graphically suggestive way, with the use of a computer. A short historical view on the subject is included. Input data sets and graphic results are presented.

The practical situations, where the analyzed methods are suitable, are also indicated. PDF | DVI | PS | No. of downloads: 481 Full access PDF | DVI | PS | Theon of Alexandria and Hypatia Author: M. Lambrou Abstract: In this paper we present the story of the most famous ancient female mathematician, Hypatia, and her father Theon of Alexandria.

A case study was chosen: Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Valparaiso. The problems regarding higher education in Computer Science are, generally speaking, similar in all countries. The system has to develop in harmony with the systems used abroad, taking advantage of the experience of others.

I have been looking for historical data that prove that this parallelism is natural, and precedents can be found not only in ancient Greek history, but also in the Hungarian history of science.
