In this paper, at first, a 24/16 three-phase switched reluctance motor is designed, then the rotor poles shape tips corrected for reduction ripple of single-phase torque waveform. By doing this, the single-phase torque waveform has a flat surface and consequently, the single-phase torque ripple is reduced. Also, due to the commutation between the machine phases, the torque drops during this tim...

This paper presents an economic production quantity (EPQ) model with a periodic order quantity (POQ) policy, product reliability and periodic demand. The machine reliability has decreased over time; therefore, the rates of perfect and defective products reduce and increase over time, respectively. A fixed percentage of these products are reworked while the rest is wasted. Some equipment in thei...

The paper proposes a minimalistic network to learn a set of movement primitives and their sequencing in one single feedforward network. Utilizing an extreme learning machine with output feedback and a simple inhibition mechanism, this approach can sequence movement primitives efficiently with very moderate network size. It can interpolate movement primitives to create new motions. This work thu...

The J-Machine network is a 3-D mesh employing wormhole routing and virtual channels to provide two network priorities. Each network channel is 9 bits wide and operates at 32MHz. Each J-Machine node contains network routers that guide messages between the six bidirectional channels incident on each node, and a network interface that handles messages originating or terminating at the node. The ro...

Abstract. Virtualization technology plays an important role in modern data center, as it creates an opportunity to improve resource utilization, reduce energy costs, and ease server management. However, virtual machine deployment issues arise when allocating virtual machines into single or multiple physical servers. In this paper, we explore the performance and scalability issues for virtual ma...

This paper presents an extensible framework for testing the behavior of networked machines running the Linux operating sytem in the presence of faults. The framework allows to inject a variety of faults, such as faults in the computing core or peripheral devices of a machine or faults in the network connecting the machines. The system under test as well as the faultand workload run on this syst...
