| With the dramatic growth of information exchanges within and between organizations, major concerns emerge about the assurance of information. Without clear knowledge of the true needs for information assurance, a company may employ local, specialized solutions that are too restrictive, or not comprehensive. On the other hand, cost-effective, variable integrity and variable security may be economically justifiable and adequate for certain situations and decisions. Therefore, a new definition of information ... |

| Similarity solutions for the flow of granular materials are constructed. Unlike previous work, the present approach can be applied to non- axisymmetric containers. The steady state equations are reduced to a nonlinear Helmholtz equation on a subdomain of the sphere. Existence and local uniqueness of the solutions are established. A spectral numerical method using Fourier/ Chebyshev-Gauss-Radau collocation for discretization and Newton-GMRES as solver is proposed and implemented. Corresponding numerical experiments ... |
