A new performance estimation technique for FPGA implementation based designs is presented. The interest and originality of the method is to rapidly test a great number of implementation solutions while staying independent as far as possible of the technology used, and to include power consumption estimation. Thanks to this method, the designer can quickly have realistic information about the pe...

— Development of Concentrating Solar Power Systems has started about 40 years ago. A first commercial implementation was performed between 1985 and 1991 in California. However, a drop in gas prices caused a longer period without further deployment. It was overcome in 2007 when new incentive schemes for renewables in Spain and the US enabled a commercial restart. In 2016, almost 100 commercial C...

This paper demonstrates an enhancement of power quality in grid integrated systems with the help of the proposed control strategy for voltage source converter based active power filters. The Shunt Active Power filters (SAPF) are extensively utilized in modern grid integrated systems to diminish the power quality concerns associated with it. The SAPF is one of the various power filters, which ha...

Intel® Architecture Servers White Paper Intel® Architecture Servers During the last decade, Intel has added several new technologies that enable users to improve the power efficiency of Intel® architecture based platforms. Because these technologies have been introduced in different generations of microprocessors and chipsets over several years, it may not be apparent how they work together and...

well-designed lighting decreases accidents and diseases of eyes and can increase productivity and concentration. increase of energy price and a high proportion of electric lighting energy consumption in buildings due to defects in designing and maintenance led to desirable lighting to be reduced. one of our challenges in providing health and quality of lighting is lack of economic justification...

This study attempts to find if better performance in power play leads a team to victory in a Twenty20 match. Based on the methodology devised to do so, the study tries to measure the performance of both the teams during power play overs in terms of batting and bowling. The developed measure is called ‘Prod’ which is a product of the difference of batting and bowling performance of t...

abstract efficacy of encouraging and punishing policies of government in different markets is related to market power. study of market behavior is also important for efficient structuring of tools such as commodity exchanges and cooperatives. in this study, market power structure of pistachio domestic market in iran was investigated. sample was 343 pistachio producers and 252 pistachio traders ...

The role of waveform design is central to effective radar resource management for state-of-the art radar systems. The waveform shape employed by any radar system has always been a key factor in determining the performance and application. The design of radar waveform to minimize mean square error (MSE) in estimating the target impulse response is based on power allocation using waterfilling. ...

Electricity generation in thermal power plants as the largest producer of electricity in Iran is associated with greenhouse gas emissions. In this paper, using the Malmquist-Luenberger method, green productivity, and efficiency changes are measured for 31 thermal power plants (including 12 steam power plants, 13 gas power plants, and six combined cycle power plants) during 2009-2016. The result...
