This article addresses the challenging task of developing a procedure for day-ahead dispatch planning wind power which emanates from wide geographical area. Using complete ensemble empirical mode decomposition technique, it is shown that low-frequency components area aggregated account largest proportions perturbing energy harnessed wind. By taking advantage slow-varying characteristics compone...

Large input-output buffering with a moderate speedup has been widely considered as the most feasible solution for large-capacity switches. We propose a new terabit per second packet switch and call it the Saturn switch. It uses a simple dual round-robin arbitration scheme to schedule packets, and achieves high throughput and low statistical delay bound. It employs a bit-sliced crossbar fabric t...

Abstract : Video streaming demands high data rates and hard de−lay constraints, and it raises several challenges on to−day’s packet−based and best−effort internet. In this paper, we propose a simple multiple−description coding (MDC) technique based on sub−sampling and cubic−spline interpolation to provide spatial diversity, such that no additional buffering delay or storage is required. Analysi...

Both proteins and RNAs can misfold into non-functional conformations. Protein chaperones promote native folding of nascent polypeptides and refolding of misfolded species, thereby buffering mutations that compromise protein structure and function. Here, we show that RNA chaperones can also act as mutation buffers that enhance organismal fitness. Using competition assays, we demonstrate that ove...

Interactive audio–video applications over IP networks have subjective tradeoffs between fidelity and latency owing to packet buffering at the receiver. Increasing the buffering time improves the fidelity, whereas it degrades the latency. This paper makes the subjective tradeoff between fidelity and latency clear in a quantitative way. In addition, we examine the effect of tasks on the subjectiv...

Spatial-temporal calcium dynamics due to calcium release, buffering, and re-uptaking plays a central role in studying excitation-contraction (E-C) coupling in both healthy and defected cardiac myocytes. In our previous work, partial differential equations (PDEs) had been used to simulate calcium dynamics with realistic geometries extracted from electron microscopic imaging data. However, the co...

A new receiver-based playout scheduling scheme is proposed, which estimates the network delay from past statistics and adaptively adjusts the playout time of the voice packets. In contrast to previous work, the adjustment is not only performed in between talkspurts, but also within the talkspurts in a highly dynamic way. Proper reconstruction of continuous output speech is achieved by scaling i...

Checkpointing and recovery is a technique for saving process state during normal execution and restoring the saved state after a failure to reduce the amount of lost work. One of its important capabilities is to save and restore the state of user files of the process. This paper presents an approach called Modification Operation Buffering to support this capability. MOB approach buffers all the...
