Dynamic power sharing is used to extend the operation time of self-reconfigurable modular robots [1]. In this area of research, power and energy consumption has consistently been a critical factor in the determination of a robot’s operation time. To this end, a method to dynamically share power would enable the robot to extend its operation time and allow it to function well beyond its individu...

sharing constitution and Togo did not—Norris’s puzzle highlights the potential that different types of institutional arrangements can have for processes of democratization. Norris conceptualizes power-sharing and powerconcentrating regimes on the basis of four formal institutional features—the type of electoral system, the horizontal concentration of powers in the type of executive, the vertica...

Organizational workforce reductions can negatively affect a company’s ability to preserve its knowledge base. The problem researched in this study was the perceived effect of downsizing on knowledge sharing among surviving employees. The purpose of this study was to determine the perceived effect of downsizing on knowledge sharing. Survivors’ knowledge sharing behavior was examined in relation ...

In this paper, a new circuit scheme is proposed to reduce the power consumption of dynamic circuits. In the proposed circuit, an NMOS keeper transistor is used to maintain the voltage level in the output node against charge sharing, leakage current and noise sources. Using the proposed keeper scheme, the voltage swing on the dynamic node is lowered to reduce the power consumption of wide fan-in...

The rising rate of consumption and price of fossil fuel along with environmental pollution by conventional power generation draw global attention to renewable energy sources and technology. Paper gives analysis study on current sharing issues of parallel DC converters in standalone photovoltaic (PV) WIND system. Solar wind power generating system with maximum power point tracking (MPPT) techniq...

Load sharing among distributed generation systems (DGS) is one of the most important topics in wireless-enabled smart microgrids, where a set of power inverters at different geographical locations work coordinately and collaboratively through wireless networks to meet the load requirement. Parallel power inverters operated in distributed generation systems rely on the underlying wireless commun...
