This paper demonstrates a method to how reserve capacity and cost allocation could be determined in a pool-based and disaggregated market model. The method considers both the spinning reserve and interruptible loads as the operating reserve services. In the proposed market, generators and consumers (including participation of interruptible loads) submit offers and bids to the independent system...

This paper presents an optimal utilization of Photovoltaic (PV) solar system based Shunt Active Filter (PV-SAF) for harmonic mitigation, real and reactive power compensation at the point of common coupling (PCC) throughout the day. This PV system operated SAF reduces the energy consumption by disconnecting the utility grid from the load through semiconductor switches, when the PV system generat...

Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is a lethal disease caused by the dreaded pathogen, human virus (HIV). Fortunately, antiretroviral therapy (ART) distinctly reduces plasma viral load from blood and thus mitigates HIV-associated morbidity mortality. Further, ART also markedly risk of HIV transmission to sexual partners infants. Consequently, has converted infection into manageable chron...

UML 2.0 activity diagrams (ADs) are largely used as a modeling language for flow-oriented behaviors in software and business processes. Unfortunately, their place/transition operational semantics is unable to capture and preserve semantics of the newly defined high-level activities constructs such as Interruptible Activity Region. Particularly, basic Petri nets do not preserve the non-locality ...

A contract algorithm is an algorithm which is given, as part of the input, a specified amount of allowable computation time. The algorithm must then compute a solution within the alloted time. An interruptible algorithm, in contrast, can be interrupted at an arbitrary point in time and must produce a solution. It is known that contract algorithms can simulate interruptible algorithms using iter...

We consider the distribution of the intermediate filaments (IFs) in the retinal cells of the Pied flycatcher (Ficedula hypoleuca, Passeriformes, Aves) in the foveolar zone, which has the most specialized morphology, where the passerines have neither the rods nor the second-order neurons that service these rods, with only the single and double cones acting as photoreceptors. We report that singl...

In this paper, Chaotic Aquila Optimization has been proposed for the solution of demand response program a grid-connected residential microgrid (GCRMG) system. Here, main objective is to optimize scheduling pattern connected appliances building such that overall user cost are minimized under dynamic price rate electricity. The GCRMG model considered analysis equipped with fuel cell, combined he...
