This paper describes a virtual instrumentation system developed for the laboratory evaluation of high voltage power capacitor units in the end of life. The system was designed and developed to meet the demand of a large Brazilian electrical energy transmission company. As some power capacitor units in a bank of 500 kV failed, the company asked CEPEL Electrical Energy Research Center to evaluate certain...
Current pre-silicon verification techniques can not guarantee error free designs for complex integrated circuits during their first fabrication. Some errors are only uncovered when the device is running at full clock speed. Using post-silicon debug techniques, the designer can monitor the device capturing errors that occur only after millions of clock cycles. However, in order to identify the cause...
Verification is the most challenging stage in an integrated circuit development cycle. The current techniques used in pre-silicon verification helps the designer catch and fix some errors, but it can not guarantee error free designs for complex integrated circuits in the first fabrication. Some errors are only uncovered after millions of clock cycles. Using post-silicon debug techniques, the designer...
In this paper we present an Open Connectivity Services architecture, which has been conceived such as to cope with the challenges posed by the Future Internet. By relying on currently working solutions and establishing a trustworthy migration strategy, the proposed architecture provides a flexible framework that supports both legacy and enhanced connectivity mechanisms. It is able to dynamically adapt...
Three experiments assessed how speakers avoid linguistically and nonlinguistically ambiguous expressions. Speakers described target objects (a flying mammal, bat) in contexts including foil objects that caused linguistic (a baseball bat) and nonlinguistic (a larger flying mammal) ambiguity. Speakers sometimes avoided linguistic-ambiguity, and they did so equally regardless of whether they also were...
