California is a leader among states in its efforts to cut greenhouse gas emissions. Under the California Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006 (Assembly Bill 32), the state has set itself on a course to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels by the year 2020. In addition to its cap-and-trade program, California aims to accomplish this objective via a large assortment of complementary...

A new method to deal with reduced dynamics of open systems by means of the Schrödinger equation is presented. It allows one to consider the reduced time evolution for correlated and uncorrelated initial conditions.

Software services offer many opportunities like reduced cost for IT infrastructure. They also introduce new risks, for example the clients lose control over their data. While data can be secured against external threats using standard techniques, the service providers themselves have to be trusted to ensure privacy. In this paper, we examine methods that can increase the level of privacy a serv...

This paper deals with the optimization of the catalytic convertor for CNG Lean burn Engine based on BS4 compliances. In addition to the present catalytic convertor the work is carried out for the optimization of catalytic convertor and also to meet the BS4 compliance and also to reduced cost for the same. In this project we have prepared the samples with some variation in the substrate with res...

We compare average impulse response of rate of return curves computed from more than sixty-seven years of historical Dow Jones Industrial, Transportation, and Utility Average closing values. The curves are relatively consistent in shape until the 1990s, when marked changes, indicative of improved market efficiency, occur for the Dow Jones Industrial Average. We argue that the effect is a result...

In this paper we treat the time evolution of unitary elements in the N level system and consider the reduced dynamics from the unitary group U(N) to flag manifolds of the second type (in our terminology). Then we derive a set of differential equations of matrix Riccati types interacting with one another and present an important problem on a nonlinear superposition formula that the Riccati equat...

A Radial Distribution network is important in power system area because of its simple design and reduced cost. Impact of Distributed generation in radial distribution feeder is increased because of its application of green technology and it also meet out some of the power system issues. Allocation of Distributed Generation at non-optimal places leads to increased power loss and reduced bus volt...

Many production facilities generate and update production schedules. Rescheduling is necessary because the manufacturing system is dynamic and unexpected events occur. This paper discusses rescheduling policies and how they affect the performance of manufacturing systems. The benefits of proper rescheduling include improved manufacturing system performance with reduced cost due to computational...

Antennas are becoming crucial in an increasingly growing number of applications namely with the emerging of the wireless internet communications, military systems like aircrafts, missiles and submarines or even oil drilling systems where efficiency, compactness and cost play a decisive role. Nonetheless, a major drawback of such solutions is that the aforementioned criteria are hard to simultan...
