The charging infrastructure location problem is becoming more significant due to the extensive adoption of electric vehicles. Efficient charging station planning can solve deeply rooted problems, such as driving-range anxiety and the stagnation of new electric vehicle consumers. In the initial stage of introducing electric vehicles, the allocation of charging stations is difficult to determine ...

We consider algorithms for many-to-many hot potato routing. In hot potato (deflection) routing a packet cannot be buffered, and is therefore always moving until it reaches its destination. We give optimal and nearly optimal deterministic algorithms for many-tomany packet routing in commonly occurring networks such as the hypercube, meshes and tori of various dimensions and sizes, trees and hype...

In this paper, an electric vehicle (EV) charging competition, among EV aggregators that perform coordinated EV charging, is explored while taking into consideration potential non-ideal actions of the aggregators. In the coordinated EV charging strategy presented in this paper, each aggregator determines EV charging start time and charging energy profiles to minimize overall EV charging energy c...

Provision of energy to wireless sensor networks is crucial for their sustainable operation. Sensor nodes are typically equipped with batteries as their operating energy sources. However, when the sensor nodes are sited in almost inaccessible locations, replacing their batteries incurs high maintenance cost. Under such conditions, wireless charging of sensor nodes by a mobile charger with an ant...

Electric vehicles (EVs) are becoming popular in the United States. Battery EVs, powered exclusively by electricity, draw more attention because they emit zero exhaust fumes, transfer energy efficiently and can be more economical compared with internal combustion automobiles. This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the real-world charging, driving and energy consumption patterns of elect...

This paper proposes a computer-based recursion algorithm for automatic charge of power device of electric vehicles carrying electromagnet. The charging system includes charging cable with one end connecting gang socket, electromagnetic gear driving the connecting socket and a charging pile breaking or closing, and detecting part for detecting electric vehicle static call or start state. The gan...

There are a number of physical failure mechanisms that can affect the reliability of a CMOS ASIC. Some of the common mechanisms can be mitigated by adhering to foundry design rules (Electromigration, Time Dependent Dielectric Breakdown (TDDB), and Hot Carrier Damage). Certain fabrication steps can cause stress that may lead to latent damage that may later reduce the useful lifetime of an ASIC. ...

In this paper, we have investigated the turn-around effect of the threshold voltage (Vth) shift in the case of an n-type long channel MOSFET during hot-carrier stress. This effect is explained by the interplay between interface states and oxide traps, i.e. by the partial compensation of the rapidly created oxide charges by the more slowly created interface states. Significant hole trapping is o...

We describe high-speed control of light from silicon nanocrystals under electrical excitation. The nanocrystals are fabricated by the ion implantation of Si(+) in the 15 nm thick gate oxide of a field effect transistor at 6.5 keV. A characteristic read-peaked electroluminescence is obtained either by DC or AC gate excitation. However, AC gate excitation is found to have a frequency response tha...
