Todays the use of microwave integrated circuits for military and commercial applications has gained much attention, especially riththe advent of monolithic microwave integrated circuits, which provide the possibility of fabrication of amplifiers in large number, sufficient accuracy and affordable price.GaAs pHEMT process, because of good characteristics for noise and power in high frequencies, is a good choice for microwave and millimeter wave integrated circuits. A low noise amplifier is a key block in the receiver and, its noise figure, gain and linearity directly affects the sensitivity and dynamic range of the receiver. Hence, a low noise amplifier with low NF, high gain, good return... 

The brain is constantly placed in stochastic environments. This leads to the brain developing a probabilistic model for the environment. However, sometimes unexpected events occur that lead to surprise and a need for updating the probabilistic model. It can be concluded from this argument that reduction in brian’s surprise is a sign of learning. On the other hand, a probability distribution obtained from a probabilistic model contains an amount of uncertainty. Reducing this uncertainty can also be considered a sign of learning. Surprise and uncertainty can be obtained from a probability distribution using information theory concepts. Another important issue in learning is habituation, which... 

Many 2D lattice models of physical phenomena are conjectured to have conformally invariant scaling limits: percolation, Ising model, self-avoiding polymers, . . .This has led to numerous exact (but non-rigorous) predictions of their scaling exponents and dimensions. We will discuss how to prove the conformal invariance conjectures, especially in relation to Schramm-Loewner Evolution
