The droop control strategy is the most common approach for microgrids control but its application is limited due to frequency deviation following a load change. Complementary control strategy has then been proposed to solve the problem using a communication network. However, under this strategy, regular loads profile produces a continuous change of output power of all distributed generators (DG...

Article history: Received 19 February 2008 Received in revised form 7 June 2012 Accepted 7 June 2012 Available online 1 July 2012 Enterprise resource planning (ERP) implementation projects often fail to achieve their objectives. These often problematic projects are frequently the setting for intense and growing power struggles. Existing studies (e.g., Boonstra, 2006; Shepherd, Clegg, & Stride, ...

Exclusive-OR (XOR) operation plays an important role in the hardware implementation of many cryptographic algorithms. Since the hardware implementation of XOR gate is vulnerable to side channel analysis such as power analysis attacks, efficient countermeasures are required. The existing approaches provide countermeasures by placing more number of transistors at key locations in the gate impleme...

Abstract A protocol conversion method of intelligent distribution equipment for a new power system is proposed to aim at the problems short data reading distance and high packet loss rate in current process equipment. The divided into two parts, uplink channel, downlink channel. multi-protocol designed. data-based scheme set up realize bidirectional protocol. original gateway replaced by CAN-PR...

EFFICIENT PARALLEL PROCESSING WITH OPTICAL INTERCONNECTIONS

Evidence of effectiveness does not equal successful implementation. To progress the field, practical tools are needed to bridge the gap between research and practice and to truly unite effectiveness and implementation evidence. This paper describes the Knowledge Transfer Scheme integrating existing implementation research frameworks into a tool which has been developed specifically to bridge th...

Problem-Based Learning (PBL) is an inductive learning approach that uses a realistic problem as the starting point of learning. Unlike in medical education, which is more easily adaptable to PBL, implementing PBL in engineering courses in the traditional semester system setup is challenging. While PBL is normally implemented in small groups of up to ten students with a dedicated tutor during PB...

INTRODUCTION Interdisciplinary collaboration is a critical component of translation, dissemination, implementation, and improvement (TDII) science. Yet, little is known about effective frameworks and practices regarding interdisciplinary research in TDII. METHODS This study drew on data collected from an expert panel during a regional symposium. RESULTS Findings highlight facilitators and b...
