The objective of this work is to provide simple, e cient, yet reasonably accurate interconnect performance estimation models for synthesis and design planning under various complex interconnect optimization techniques. We have developed a set of closed-form delay estimation models as functions of interconnect length as well as some other key interconnect and device parameters with the considera...

Ships play the major role in bulk transportation and they need their special energy system. This paper proposes a stochastic programing method for optimal sizing of a hybrid ship power system with energy storage system (ESS), photovoltaic power (PV) and diesel generator. To account for uncertainties, in this study a two-stage stochastic mixed-integer non-linear programing is used to model the o...

Distributed Generations (DGs) are utilized to supply the active and reactive power in the transmission and distribution systems. These types of power sources have many benefits such as power quality enhancement, voltage deviation reduction, power loss reduction, load shedding reduction, reliability improvement, etc. In order to reach the above benefits, the optimal placement and sizing of DG is...

Power consumption has emerged as the premier and most constraining aspect in modern microprocessor and application specific designs. Gate sizing has been shown to be one of the most effective methods for power (and area) reduction in CMOS digital circuits. Recently, as the feature size of logic gates (and transistors) is becoming smaller and smaller, the effect of soft error rates caused by sin...
