This paper provides design and implementation of a DC-DC boost converter control system by using gain scheduling PI-controller to achieve stable regulated output voltage with improved dynamic performance. The proposed controller parameters are obtained from system output response based on step input signal. A test step input is applied to the system and the three parameters of the plant are obt...

This letter proposes the fuzzy logic-based fast gain scheduling(FFGS) controller for regulation problem in nonlinear systems. It utilizes the fuzzy scheduling variable which reeects the derivative information on the original scheduling variable in order to achieve better performance than the existents.

Given a parallel program to be executed on a heterogeneous computing system, the overall execution time of the program is determined by a schedule. In this paper, we analyze the worst-case performance of the list scheduling algorithm for scheduling tasks of a parallel program in a mixed-machine heterogeneous computing system such that the total execution time of the program is minimized. We pro...

In this study, we investigated the influence of mood on a production scheduling managerial task by comparing the effects of positive and neutral mood on individual judgments and their accuracy. When the subjects have been exposed to the task and thus have gained experience doing the task, the subjects in a positive mood performed significantly better than the subjects in a neutral mood.

Scheduling is a fundamental operating system function, since almost all computer resources are scheduled before use. The CPU is one of the primary computer resources. Central Processing Unit (CPU) scheduling plays an important role by switching the CPU among various processes. A processor is the important resource in computer; the operating system can make the computer more productive. The purp...

Scheduling algorithm is a key technology in satellite switching system with input-buffer. In this paper, a new scheduling algorithm and its realization are proposed. Based on Crossbar switching fabric, the algorithm adopts serial scheduling strategy and adjusts the output port arbitrating strategy for the better equity of every port. Consequently, it increases the matching probability. The algo...

Tasks of an application program of an embedded system are managed by the scheduler of a real-time operating system (RTOS). Most RTOSs adopt just fixed priority scheduling, which is not optimal in all cases. Some applications require earliest deadline first (EDF) scheduling, which is an optimal scheduling algorithm. In order to develop an efficient real-time embedded system, the scheduling algor...
