Correlation of Ground-Level Computer Installation Error Rates with Solar Activity CSC 2232 Project (Fall 2009)
نویسنده
چکیده
Is the soft error rate in ground-level computer installations correlated with the intensity of solar radiation? This problem is already significant for space-borne systems, but recent analysis of FPGA configuration failures show that radiation-induced soft errors might become a problem even at sea level as silicon device integration increases [1]. This problem would be magnified in large or widely deployed installations.

Fuzzy Logic Controller Design for Staged Heating and Ventilating Systems
Conventional stage controllers (CSC) for interior environment control of agricultural facilities are prevalent and well suited for slowly varying loads, smaller facilities with few stages of control, and in cases where “discrete proportional control” is deemed adequate. Ad hoc implementation schemes for using the same CSC over a range in size of building heating and ventilating systems, from on...

متن کاملGlobal Solar Radiation Prediction for Makurdi, Nigeria Using Feed Forward Backward Propagation Neural Network
The optimum design of solar energy systems strongly depends on the accuracy of solar radiation data. However, the availability of accurate solar radiation data is undermined by the high cost of measuring equipment or non-functional ones. This study developed a feed-forward backpropagation artificial neural network model for prediction of global solar radiation in Makurdi, Nigeria (7.7322 N lo...

متن کاملThe CHAIN-Project and Installation of Flare Monitoring Telescopes in Developing Countries
The Flare Monitoring Telescope (FMT) was constructed in 1992 at Hida Observatory in Japan to investigate the long-term variation of solar activity and explosive events. It has five solar imaging telescopes that simultaneously observe the full-disk Sun at different wavelengths around the H-alpha absorption line or in different modes. Therefore, the FMT can measure the three-dimensional velocity ...
