Abstract The recent and fast‐growing trends related to the development of wearable technologies have raised need for efficient high‐performance energy storage devices having extra features such as flexibility lightweight. Polymer hydrogels, viscoelastic lightweight porous nanostructures with tunable surface structural properties, can play a crucial role in design these future devices. Herein, d...

This paper introduces a novel speech coder structure for storage applications operating at low bit rates. The coder exploits the inherent segmental nature of speech signals by dividing the input into segments of variable length. Quite often the length of the segment is the same as the length of the phoneme. The individual segments are coded using adaptive techniques that take into account the r...

Storage systems have storage devices which run real time embedded software. Most storage devices use C and occasionally C++ to manage and control the storage device. Software for the storage device must meet the time and resource constraints of the storage device. The prevailing wisdom in the embedded world is that objects and in particular Java only work for simple problems and can not handle ...

in order to maintain the quality and increase the shelf life of fruits, many studies have been carried out in terms of the packaging specially applications of the nano-composite packages in the packaging. because of the low storage ability of the plum fruit, in this study, the effects of the four nano-composite packages and common polyethylene (as a control) were analyzed on maintaining quality...

Executive Summary Direct PCI Express (PCIe) attached flash storage offers unparalleled performance levels and vastly outperforms SAS/SATA-attached flash storage solutions. However, such PCIe attached flash storage cards, in their existing form, are restricted to the confines of the PCIe slots in the host server. This approach can neither support a disaggregated storage (JBOD/RAID-like) mode tha...

We describe the Logistical Networking Testbed, built using the Network Storage Stack, and sample applications that use the testbed. The testbed uses the Network Storage Stack, developed at the University of Tennessee, which allows for flexible sharing and utilization of writable storage as a network resource. The sample applications include content delivery, multimedia streaming, overlay routin...

This special issue presents a review of recent advances in electrochemical energy storage, battery management systems, and power electronics for grid-scale energy storage applications. The importance of energy storage across the entire electricity infrastructure is growing rapidly. In particular, this is highlighted by the urgent need to address the intermittency challenge caused by the large-s...
