Synchronization of VLSI systems is growing in complexity because of the increase in die size and integration levels, along with stronger requirements for integrated circuit speed and reliability. The size increase leads to delays and synchronization losses in clock distribution. Additionally, the large amount of synchronous hardware in integrated circuits requires large current spikes to be dra...

With increased interests in affordable energy resources, a cleaner environment, and sustainability, more objectives operational obligations have been introduced to recent power plant control systems. This paper presents verified load frequency model predictive (MPC) that aims satisfy the demand of three practical generation technologies, which are wind systems, clean coal supercritical (SC) pla...

This paper fully discusses how to design an observer based decentralized fuzzy adaptive controller for a class of large scale multivariable non-canonical nonlinear systems with unknown functions of subsystems’ states. On-line tuning mechanisms to adjust both the parameters of the direct adaptive controller and observer that guarantee the ultimately boundedness of both the tracking error and tha...

Power dissipation has become one of the main constraints during the design of embedded systems and VLSI circuits in the recent years, due to the continuous increase of the integration level and the operating frequency. The aim of this paper is to present an innovative conceptual framework suitable for achieving accurate and efficient estimation of power dissipation for embedded systems describe...
