Background and Objectives: Virtual inertia control, as a component of a virtual synchronous generator, is used for the implementation of synchronous generator behaviour in microgrids. In microgrids that include high-capacity distributed generation resources, in addition to virtual inertia, virtual damping can also lead to improvement of frequency stability of the microgrid. The purpose of the c...

We propose, implement, and evaluate VIPER, a system to isolate, provide QoS, and manage virtual networks. Contrary to previous approaches, VIPER guarantees a fine sharing of physical resources among virtual networks according to the different parameters that describe the service level agreements. The main components of the proposed system are the resource sharing manager and the virtual network...

Biaxial tensile strained Si grown on SiGe virtual substrates will be incorporated into future generations of CMOS technology due to the lack of performance increase with scaling. Compressively strained Ge-rich alloys with high hole mobilities can also be grown on relaxed SiGe. We review progress in strained Si and dual channel heterostructures, and also introduce high hole mobility digital allo...

A flat panel, compact virtual image projection display is presented. It is based on a light- guided optical configuration that includes three linear holographic gratings recorded on one planar transparent substrate so as to obtain a magnified virtual image for a small input display. The principles of the projection display, unique design, and procedures for experimentally recording an actual pl...

the current research tries to offer a conceptual model in order to create trust among people for choosing virtual universities. to this end, the conceptual model of research has been designed with nine factors. the relationship among factors tested by using statistical methods such as factor analysis and path analysis. in the end, five components were established from among the affecting factor...

Seven novel binders, binding in the active site of Plasmodium falciparum spermidine synthase, were identified by structure-based virtual screening. The binding of these compounds was experimentally verified by NMR techniques. Spermidine synthase, an enzyme involved in the polyamine pathway, has been suggested as a target for treating malaria. The virtual screening protocol combined 3D pharmacop...

virtual technology can be a useful tool for designing models of healthy urban environments. the resilience and sustainability in any urban environment involves the establishment and maintenance of the health of its citizens. the well-being of youth, the future workforce of every society, is a highly important consideration in the design of cities. cities are only truly sustainable when the work...
