Selection of suitable sites for wind power plants is one of the most important decision on wind resources development. Site selection for the establishment of large wind power plants requires spatial evaluation taking technical, economic, and environmental considerations into account. This study has applied a combination of PROMETHEE and Fuzzy AHP methods in a geographical information system en...

Wireless sensor network a powerful network contains many wireless sensors with limited power resource, data processing, and transmission abilities. Wireless sensor capabilities including computational capacity, radio power, and memory capabilities are much limited. Moreover, to design a hierarchy topology, in addition to energy optimization, find an optimum clusters number and best location of ...

The process of building Latin American autonomy through regional integration has lost its momentum in recent years and some cases, are seriously questioned. hypothesis put forward here is that neopresidentialism replicated institutions configurating an essentially intergovernmental model which, combined with the logic hierarchy power international order, ends up giving privileges to most powerf...

In this paper, simultaneous placement of distributed generation, capacitor bank and protective devices are utilized to improve the efficiency of the distribution network. The objectives of the problem are reduction of active and reactive power losses, improvement of voltage profile and reliability indices and increasing distribution companies’ profit. The combination of firefly algorithm, parti...

The power-efficient implementation of motion estimation algorithms on a system comprised by an FPGA and an external memory is presented. Low power consumption is achieved by implementing an optimum on-chip memory hierarchy inside the FPGA, and moving the bulk of required memory transfers from the internal memory hierarchy instead of the external memory. Comparisons among implementations with an...
