This paper presents the analysis and design of a boost converter with bipolar Dickson voltage multiplier. The bipolar Dickson voltage multiplier offers high gain with low stress on both capacitors and switches. Connecting bipolar Dickson cell to a boost converter yields several benefits such as an overall high static voltage gain and at the same time reduces the required inductance that ensures operation...
This paper presents a novel compact AC/AC converter suitable for hybrid microgrids. The proposed topology is used to interconnect two three-phase renewable energy resources and one three-phase load to the grid, side by side with the appropriate generalized pulse width modulation and control method of the microgrid power flow. The proposed topology, generalized pulse width modulation, and the utilized...
As more number of distributed generators like PV are penetrated into the power system network, the interaction of the filter elements associated with PV inverter and rest of the distribution system elements on network resonance needs to be investigated. Although the recent investigation of network resonance is focusing only on distributed generators like PV, the impact from distribution lines coming...
This paper proposes a distributed controller placement problem that finds out the pareto optimal solutions minimizing the switch-to-controller delay, controller-to-controller delay, and controller load imbalance for wide area software defined networks. We introduce a general model that not only considers the controller placements but also the switch assignments, so that this model can further be used...
Servers in a network are typically assigned a static identity. Static assignment of identities is a cornerstone for adversaries in finding targets. Moving Target Defense (MTD) mutates the environment to increase unpredictability for an attacker. On another side, Software Defined Networks (SDN) facilitate a global view of a network through a central control point. The potential of SDN can not only...
The majority of business activity of our integrated and connected world takes place in networks based on cloud computing infrastructure that cross national, geographic and jurisdictional boundaries. Such an efficient entity interconnection is made possible through an emerging networking paradigm, Software Defined Networking (SDN) that intends to vastly simplify policy enforcement and network reconfiguration...
Multipath TCP (MPTCP) has gained great attention by the researchers and network application developers due to its features providing better bandwidth utilization and higher reliability recently. Utilizing MPTCP in the datacenters provides performance gain to the applications. If the underlying network has Software Defined Networking (SDN) architecture, the routing of the MPTCP subflows can be specialized...
This paper presents analysis, design, and implementation of the high-frequency split-pi converter. Split-Pi converter has distinctive features like the symmetry of the input and the output components. Also, the continuity of the input and output currents makes this converter more desirable in applications like electric vehicles and power management. Split-pi converter is a bi-directional voltage-fed...
Adiabatic logic is an alternative architecture design style to reduce the power consumption of digital cores by using AC power supply instead of DC ones. The energy saving of the digital gates is strongly related to the efficiency of adiabatic AC power supplies. In this paper, we propose a resonant reversible power-clock supply design with four different phases. The resonance deviation between the...
The thickness of the boundary layer of the discrete-time Tracking-Differentiator is variable, so that the control characteristic line is asymmetric. In general, the nonlinear boundary transform is used to get the control synthesis function. However, it contains square root operations, and the compute is more complex. This study is conducted to put forward a new algorithm to simplify partition boundary...

Gene Expression Networks (GENs) attempt to model how genetic information stored in the DNA (Genotype) results in the synthesis of proteins, and consequently, the physical traits of an organism (Phenotype). Deciphering GENs plays an important role in a wide range of applications from genetic studies of the origins of life to personalized healthcare. Probabilistic graphical models such as Bayesian Networks...

These conditions include the arbitrary switching signal case and the state feedback switching signal case. In addition,...
Dependability of computer and communication networks is an important aspect of the customer-provider relationship in the telecommunication industry. Considering the increasing interest in Software-Defined Networking (SDN) technologies, as well as unclear understanding of dependability in the context of traffic flows in such networks, it is not clear how to define the related objectives in Service...
The emergence of 5G wireless and IoT (Internet of Things) technologies, as well as the continuous evolution of cloud computing is driving the need for easy and on-demand creation of end-to-end network services. We have developed an integrated system called the end-to-end network service orchestrator, which realizes seamless service orchestration across multiple on-premises and cloud infrastructures...
In the event of a large blackout in the smart distribution system with distributed generators, a power supply restoration plan for the non-fault blackout regions must be devised quickly. According to the actual operation of the smart distribution network with DG after fault and the prin-ciple of islanding, this paper determines the running range of the island, maintains the power supply of the important...
Even while engaged in an attention-consuming activity such as watching TV, social media users often end up paying attention to one or more social media. This is an example of a behavioral phenomenon called Continuous Partial Attention (CPA). Quantification of user attention can be a valuable metric in understanding user behavior under scenarios where their attention is divided. In this study, we propose...
Scanning of main beam of radiation digitally at fixed millimeter wave frequency in a Substrate Integrated Waveguide (SIW) Leaky Wave Antenna (LWA) has not been investigated so far in literature.
