  2. Problem solving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Problem_solving

    Problem solving is the process of achieving a goal by overcoming obstacles, a frequent part of most activities. Problems in need of solutions range from simple personal tasks (e.g. how to turn on an appliance) to complex issues in business and technical fields. The former is an example of simple problem solving (SPS) addressing one issue ...

  3. Fructose 2,6-bisphosphate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fructose_2,6-bisphosphate

    Fructose 2,6-bisphosphate, abbreviated Fru-2,6-P2, is a metabolite that allosterically affects the activity of the enzymes phosphofructokinase 1 (PFK-1) and fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase-1) to regulate glycolysis and gluconeogenesis. [1] Fru-2,6- P2 itself is synthesized and broken down in either direction by the integrated bifunctional ...

  4. Two Generals' Problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two_Generals'_Problem

    Armies A1 and A2 cannot see one another directly, so need to communicate by messengers, but their messengers may be captured by army B. In computing, the Two Generals' Problem is a thought experiment meant to illustrate the pitfalls and design challenges of attempting to coordinate an action by communicating over an unreliable link.

  5. Banach's matchbox problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banach's_matchbox_problem

    Banach's match problem is a classic problem in probability attributed to Stefan Banach. Feller [1] says that the problem was inspired by a humorous reference to Banach's smoking habit in a speech honouring him by Hugo Steinhaus, but that it was not Banach who set the problem or provided an answer. Suppose a mathematician carries two matchboxes ...

  7. Concorde TSP Solver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concorde_TSP_Solver

    The Concorde TSP Solver is a program for solving the travelling salesman problem. It was written by David Applegate, Robert E. Bixby, Vašek Chvátal, and William J. Cook, in ANSI C, and is freely available for academic use. Concorde has been applied to problems of gene mapping, [1] protein function prediction, [2] vehicle routing, [3 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2,6-Xylidine

    2,6-Xylidine is an organic compound with the formula C 6 H 3 (CH 3) 2 NH 2. It is one of several isomeric xylidines. It is a colorless viscous liquid. Commercially significant derivatives are the anesthetics lidocaine, bupivacaine, mepivacaine, and etidocaine. Production, occurrence, reactions

  9. Riemann solver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riemann_solver

    Definition. Generally speaking, Riemann solvers are specific methods for computing the numerical flux across a discontinuity in the Riemann problem. They form an important part of high-resolution schemes; typically the right and left states for the Riemann problem are calculated using some form of nonlinear reconstruction, such as a flux limiter or a WENO method, and then used as the input for ...
