Errata to 'Nonlinear programming without computation'

Modeling charge injection in MOS analog switches

“…Complex polynomials are encountered in several applications [4], [5], [lo, p. 1931. Bivariate complex polynomials are also now…”

“…There have been some attempts in the literature to model the parasitic conductances are not sufficiently small, and the the switch charge injection. MacQuigg [4] made a qualitative nonlinearity not appropriately shaped.…”

Redes Neurais de Hopfield como Ferramenta de Otimização Aplicado ao Despacho Hidrotérmico

“…Os circuitos propostos por "Kennedy e Chua" em [7] para programação linear e em [8] para programação quadrática e também para programação não linear genérica foram baseados na teoria de circuitos desenvolvida em [20,21,24], denominada "canonical nonlinear programming circuit", a qual é baseada condições de "Kuhn--Tucker" da teoria de programação matemática. Sendo assim, tais circuitos simulam a solucão de problemas de programação não linear genérica através de circuitos e que tem seu circuito analógico mostrado em [22].…”

Global asymptotic stability of nonlinear circuits related to maximum flow problems

“…There has been a long history of attempts to solve optimization problems by means of nonlinear circuits [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. An advantage of this approach is that an exact or approximate optimal solution can be obtained in real time.…”

“…This idea was further extended by Stern [2]. Chua and Lin developed a canonical nonlinear programming circuit for simulating general nonlinear programming problems [3][4][5]. Hopfield and Tank showed that the Hopfield neural network, which can be implemented as a nonlinear circuit, is a powerful tool for solving several optimization problems such as traveling salesman problems, linear programming problems, analog-to-digital conversion, and so on [6,7].…”
