Embedded systems are becoming increasingly popular due to their widespread applications. Hardware/software partitioning with reliability in consideration is becoming one of the most crucial steps in the design of complex embedded systems, especially for safety critical applications. In this paper, a reliability-centric approach is proposed to increase the reliability and decrease the potential errors...
This study presents an application of Nondominated sorting genetic algorithm II (NSGA-II) to the multi-objective optimal placement of distributed generation (DG) in distribution system with special requirements for power quality and power supply. To effectively replicate different perspectives and satisfy some consumers' special requirements, a multi-objective optimization model, which considers technical,...
Reliability analysis is important in the life cycle of safety critical Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) system. The complexity of PLC system reliability analysis arises in handling the complex relations between hardware components and embedded software. Different embedded software may lead to different arrangements of hardware execution and different system reliability quantities. In this paper,...
Through analyzing the statistical properties of measured vibratory data for X-type aircraft, it confirms that non-Gaussian or nonstationary vibration environment exist in transportation and employment of equipments. The deficiencies of the existing vibration test methods and standard are pointed out, and the vibration test methods and flow chart based on measured data are proposed, which can effectively...
The hidden process detection thread-based scheduling list exist hardcode problem and some hidden processes could be skipped by some malicious programs. The article proposes a new method based on the routines of thread scheduling list, which derived through the system exporting Routine Long Instructions Disassembling (RLID) to find a Thread Scheduling List (TSL) to solve the hardcode problem as we...
The reliability of interconnects continues to be a formidable challenge as dimensions shrink from generation to generation. In this paper we demonstrate barrier/seed scaling, enabled by HCMreg IONX PVD technology. We report high electromigration activation energy of ~ 1 eV, and Jmax > 6 MA/cm2, exceeding the ITRS 2007 requirements for the next several generations by a wide margin. Thinner barrier/seed...
An evaluation method for the network reliability of communication networks based on the entropy measures is presented. Without the previous knowledge of the reliability of nodes and links, this method quantizes the uncertainty of the link and node importance through the entropy measures and evaluates the network reliability according to the network entropy. The theoretical analysis indicates that...
