Flyback inverter topology is attractive because of its simplicity, low cost and high efficiency, when compared with other topologies for the photovoltaic ac module application. This paper aims to improve the poor performance of the grid-connected current in continuous conduction mode(CCM). A proportional-integral and repetitive controller(RC) is proposed to regulate the grid current, high power factor...
System-level thermal management techniques normally map applications on non-adjacent cores to guarantee the safe temperature in many-core systems, while the communication efficiency will be oppositely affected by long-distance data transmission over conventional Network-on-Chips (NoC). SMART NoC has enabled single-cycle multi-hop bypass channels between distant cores, which can significantly reduce...
In this dark silicon era, techniques have been developed to selectively activate nonadjacent cores in physical locations to maintain the safe temperature and allowable power budget on a many-core chip. This will result in unexpected increase in the communication overhead due to longer average distance between active cores in a typical mesh-based Network-on-Chip (NoC), and in turn reduce the system...
Mobile applications are becoming increasingly computation-intensive, while the computing capacity of mobile devices is limited. A powerful way to reduce completion time of an application is to offload tasks to the cloud for execution. However, online offloading an application with general taskgraph is a difficult task. In this paper we present an online task offloading algorithm that minimizes the...
Slc11a1 is an integral membrane protein with 12 putative transmembrane domains (TMDs) and functions as a pH‐coupled divalent metal cation transporter. The conservation of three negatively charged residues in the TMD3 of Slc11 protein family implies the important role of this domain in the function of the proteins. However, aggregation of the transmembrane peptide in micelles prevents structural study...
Take support structure as the object, studied the multi-objective optimization of optimization layout of structural materials and maximize natural frequency under multiple load cases. Based on the SIMP (solid isotropic material with penalization) method, compromise programming method was adopted to define objectives of multi-objective topology optimization. With the supporting structure for the study,...
Designed to adapt spectrum usage on-the-fly, frequency-agile radios can drastically improve performance of wireless networks. Such flexibility, however, comes with a cost of increased hardware complexity. This motivates us to understand when and why having higher degree of frequency-agility helps and how much improvement it can lead to. In this paper, we approach this question by comparing two types...
How to distribute radio spectrum across network nodes is a critical problem in spectrum auctions and management. In this paper, we consider the problem of distributing spectrum using SINR-driven physical interference models. We propose Optimus, a new line of approximation algorithms that perform within a constant distance of min {2?? + 1, 10} from the optimum in terms of spectrum usage efficiency,...
We propose a model for growing fractal networks based on the mechanisms learned from the diffusion-limited aggregation (DLA) model in fractal geometries in the viewpoint of network. By studying the DLA network, our model introduces multiplicative growth, aging and geographical preferential attachment mechanisms, whereby featuring topological self-similar property and hierarchical modularity. According...
Inspired by the diffusion-limited aggregation (DLA) model, we propose a new fractal network model with tunable fractal dimension. By introducing multiplicative growth, aging and geographical preferential attachment mechanisms, our model not only has a fractal topological structure but also hierarchical modularity. This paper focuses on the error and attack tolerance of the model. By changing the values...
