In this short note an alternative definition of the Bit-Search Generator (BSG) is provided. This leads to a discussion of both the security of the BSG and ways in which it might be modified to either improve its rate or increase its security.

This paper presents a tool developed to obtain qualitative trend representations from signals, Qualtras. The aim of such a type of description is to offer an understandable representation of process behavior based on the concept of qualitative episode. The tool is intended to be used as a numeric to qualitative interface for supervisory applications. The applicability of this tool is demonstrat...

This paper examines optimum selection of wind turbines between site and wind turbine generators. An analysis methodology is done at the planning and development stages of installation of wind power stations will enable the wind power developer or the power utilities to make a judicious and rapid choice of suitable wind energy conversion system from the available potential sites. The methodology...

in this paper, an algorithm is presented for the formation of optimal null basis vectors corresponding to sparse flexibility matrices. for controlling the independence of the vectors, a generator is selected in each corresponding self-equilibrating systems, and the sequence of generators is modeled as decision variables. since the equilibrium conditions and uniqueness of generators consists a u...

Introducing distributed generation into a power system can lead to numerous benefits including technical, economic, environmental, etc. To attain these benefits, distributed generators with proper rating should be installed at suitable locations. Given the similar effects of distributed generators and capacitor banks on operation indices of a distribution system, simultaneous assignment of best...

Permanent magnet synchronous generators (PMSGs) are novel generators which can be used in high-performance wind farms. High efficiency and flexibility in producing electricity from variable rotation make them good candidate for wind power applications. Furthermore, because these kinds of generators have no excitation winding, there is no copper loss on rotor; hence, they can operate at high pow...

When a programming activity is well-understood, it can be automated. Automation transforms software development from activities like rote coding and tedious debugging to that of specification, where the “what” of an application is declared and the “how” is left to a complex, but automatable mapping. Programs that perform such mappings are application generators (or just generators). In the tech...

We use the notion of Borel generators to give alternative methods for computing standard invariants, such as associated primes, Hilbert series, and Betti numbers, of Borel ideals. Because there are generally few Borel generators relative to ordinary generators, this enables one to do manual computations much more easily. Moreover, this perspective allows us to find new connections to combinator...
