In this paper, a non isolated multi-input multi-output dc–dc boost converter is proposed. This converter is used to implant alternative energy sources in electric vehicles. However, advantages of different sources of energy are achievable by the implant energy sources. This converter has many outputs with different voltage levels, which can be interfaced with multilevel inverters. In this conve...

Nanoelectromechanical (NEM) switches are similar to conventional semiconductor switches in that they can be used as relays, transistors, logic devices and sensors. However, the operating principles of NEM switches and semiconductor switches are fundamentally different. These differences give NEM switches an advantage over semiconductor switches in some applications--for example, NEM switches pe...

Bidirectional promoters, which show great application potential in genetic improvement of plants, have aroused great research interest recently. However, most bidirectional promoters were cloned individually in the studies of single genes. Here, we initiatively combined RNA-seq data and cDNA microarray data to discover the potential bidirectional promoters in rice genome. Based on the expressio...

Bidirectional model transformation is useful for maintaining consistency between two models, and has many potential applications in software development including model synchronization, round-trip engineering, and software evolution. Despite these attractive uses, the lack of a practical tool support for systematic development of well-behaved and efficient bidirectional model transformation pre...
