Optimal Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) Placement (OPP) aims to reduce equipment costs while maintaining electrical systems observability. PMUs synchronized phasor data provide information with high quality and frequency enabling the implementation of faster than real-time state estimators. We applied Chemical Reaction Optimization (CRO) method at OPP problem, testing it successfully IEEE power s...

Most current load balancing systems are based on process placement or process migration. We introduce placement of user login sessions as a load balancing approach, and compare it to the process placement and process migration approaches. A load balancing system based on user placement is described, and some experimental results are given. We conclude that user placement has several advantages ...

modern integrated circuits consist of millions of standard cells and routing paths. in nano-scale designs, mis-prediction is a dominant problem that may diminish the quality of physical design algorithms or even result in the disruption of the convergence of the design cycle. in this paper, a new planning methodology is presented in which a master-plan of the chip is constructed at the early le...

in recent years, size of vlsi circuits is dramatically grown and layout generation of current circuits has become a dominant task in design flow. standard cell placement is an effective stage of physical design and quality of placement affects directly on the performance, power consumption and signal immunity of design. placement can be performed analytically or heuristically. analytical placer...
