This paper studies value predictor design under table access latency and energy constraints for high-frequency, wide-issue microprocessors. Previous value prediction efforts make generous assumptions regarding table sizes and access conditions, while ignoring prediction latencies and energy issues. Our work shows that the latency of a high-performance value predictor cannot be completely hidden...

the purpose of this study is the utilization of furfural residue for heating energy and activated carbon production. to evaluate the energy production of the residue, bulk density, melting point, and heating value were measured. furthermore, moisture, ash, volatile compounds, fixed carbon, lignin, and elements were determined. ash and volatile content average were measured at 15.4% and 68.9%, r...

Train energy saving problem investigates how to control train's velocity such that the quantity of energy consumption is minimized and some system constraints are satis ed. On the assumption that the train's weights on different links are estimated by fuzzy variables when making the train scheduling strategy, we study the fuzzy train energy saving problem. First, we propose a fuzzy energy ...

This paper analyzes the effects of structures and loads on the static bending and free vibration problems of bilayer beams. Based on static mechanical equilibrium and energy equilibrium, the static and dynamic governing equations of bilayer beam are established. It is found that the value of the thickness ratio has a significant effect on the static and dynamic responses of the beam, and the st...

an experiment was conducted to determine the effect of different inclusion rates and degree of saturation of fat sources on true metabolizable energy corrected to zero nitrogen retention ( tmen) values in broiler chickens at 42 days of age. animal fat and cotton seed oil were blended in the proportions of: 0.25:0.75 , 0.50:0.50 , 0.75:0.25. the three blends together with the animal fat and cott...

in this paper, a study and design of energy conservation actions and the obtention of energy efficiency titles, according to the italian ministerial decree 20th july 2004, applied to lighting and electrical systemsin a school district managed by perugia province (italy), is presented.specifically, the analysis regarded the replacement of neon lamps with high efficiency ones, and the power facto...

A digestion trial using cannulated lactating cows was conducted to evaluate the influence of barley grain processing on characteristics of ruminal fermentation and the site and extent of digestion. The experiment consisted in 4 periods and lasted 84 days. The total mixed rations contained 39.86% of grains and 42.90% of alfalfa hay and the rest of ration was composed mainly by cane molasses, fat...

In order to obtain the best performance of the solar air heaters, it is necessary to find optimum performance conditions. The aim of this research paper is to achieve optimum conditions, by comparing single and double pass solar air heaters. Also, a brief review study of various related research works of all scenarios for a single and double pass and packed bed (including particle technologies)...

in the present attempt, flow behavior and thermal convection of one type of nanofluids in a disc geometry was investigated using computational fluid dynamics (cfd). influence of gravity induced sedimentation also has been studied. the commercial software, fluent 6.2, has been employed to solve the governing equations. a user defined function was added to apply a uniform external magnetic field....
