The Dual Elliptic Curve Pseudorandom Generator (DEC PRG) is proposed by Barker and Kelsey [2]. It is claimed (see Section 10.3.1 of [2]) that the pseudorandom generator is secure unless the adversary can solve the elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem (ECDLP) for the corresponding elliptic curve. The claim is supported only by an informal discussion. No security reduction is given, that is,...

In this paper the performance of Synchronous Generator which is act as a Dispersed Generator is examined in controlling the flow of power over the transmission line. This project presents real and reactive power flow control through a transmission line by placing Synchronous Generator at the load end along with UPFC at the midpoint of a power system. The real and reactive powers can be easily c...

Economic load dispatch (ELD) is an important optimization task in power system. It is the process of allocating generation among the committed units such that the constraints imposed are satisfied and the energy requirements are minimized. There are three criteria in solving the economic load dispatch problem. They are minimizing the total generator operating cost, total emission cost and sched...

This paper presents a new photonic integrated circuit, namely optical pulse-train generator, which is developed based on the transfer matrix analysis of microrings and utilizes a time-interleaved architecture. This circuit can generate multiple optical pulses sequentially from a single trigger pulse, with the timing and amplitude of each pulse determined by circuit design. Hence it can be appli...

Recentry, Viola (CCC’08) showed that the sum of d small-biased distributions fools degree-d polynomial tests; that is, every polynomial expression of degree at most d in the bits of the sum has distribution very close to that induced by this expression evaluated on uniformly selected random bits. We show that this is tight by showing an explicit construction of a small-bias generator (with expo...

Experiments in crisis management are expensive and difficult to realize. There is also a lack of training facilities in real crisis environments. Serious games and simulation can provide an alternative. We developed a system which enables interactive simulation for crisis management. It is called IMACSIM (Interactive Multi Agent Crisis Simulator Interpreter and Monitor). It is composed of the f...

In this paper, a sequential 2D unstructured grid generator based on iterative point insertion and local reconnection is coupled with a Delauney tessellation domain decomposition scheme to create a scalable parallel unstructured grid generator. The Message Passing Interface (MPI) is used for distributed communication in the parallel grid generator. This work attempts to provide a generic framewo...

A serious problem of most transformation-based generators is that they are trying to achieve three mutually antagonistic goals simultaneously: 1) deeply factored operators and operands to gain the combinatorial programming leverage provided by composition, 2) high performance code in the generated program, and 3) small (i.e., practical) generation search spaces. The hypothesis of this paper is ...

Random numbers following a Standard Normal distribution are of great importance when using simulations as a means for investigation. The Ziggurat method (Marsaglia and Tsang, 2000; Leong, Zhang, Lee, Luk, and Villasenor, 2005) is one of the fastest methods to generate normally distributed random numbers while also providing excellent statistical properties. This note provides an updated impleme...

A new topology of a hybrid distributed generator based on photovoltaic and wind-driven permanent magnet synchronous generator is proposed. In this generator, the sources are together connected to the grid with the help of only a single boost converter followed by an inverter. Thus, compared to earlier schemes, the proposed scheme has fewer power converters. Model of the proposed scheme in d-q a...
