In this paper we study the relation between energy-efficiency and parallel executions when implemented with a fine-grained task-centric programming model. Using a simulation framework comprised of an architectural simulator and a power and area estimation tool, we have investigated the potential energy-savings when employing parallelism on multi-cores system. In our experiments with 2 8 multi-c...

Integration of energy storage resources into electricity markets face multiple barriers including high capital costs, sitting difficulties, significant energy penalties due to roundtrip efficiency, and the lack of market structures that appropriately reflect the value of storage. Capital and operating costs could be reduced with advanced storage systems consisting of modular multilevel series/p...

Abstract We study the concept of reversibility in connection with parallel communicating systems finite automata (PCFA short). define notion case PCFA (also covering non-deterministic case) and discuss relationship its components. show that a system can be reversible non-reversible components, other way around, components does not necessarily imply as whole. also investigate computational power...

We describe a particular control method for system controlled by several actuators with the same constants. show under certain assumptions that constants whole can be obtained immediately from single actuator, and no gain scheduling is required.

The curse of dimensionality and computational time cost are a great challenge to operation of large-scale hydropower systems (LSHSs) in China because computer memory and computational time increase exponentially with increasing number of reservoirs. Discrete differential dynamic programming (DDDP) is one of the most classical algorithms for alleviating the dimensionality problem for operation o...
