Dynamic PTDF Implementation in the Market Model

This master thesis aims at developing the methodology to form dynamic PTDF families, for the implementation into the market model. The main procedures to create a dynamic PTDF family are developed and presented with a study case (See Chapter 4). By fitting data from the market model into the data mining tools, typical scenarios of the time...

Throughput-constrained Voltage and Frequency Scaling for Real-time heterogeneous multiprocessors

Voltage and Frequency Scaling (VFS) has been shown to reduce energy consumption effectively on system level. Most existing work in this field focused on deadline-constrained applications with finite schedule lengths. However, in typical real-time streaming applications, data processing is constantly activated by infinitely long data streams and...

Multi-Carrier Wakeup Radio Receiver

In the development of wireless sensor networks, power consumption is one of the bottlenecks for wide applications. In order to improve the energy efficiency of wireless sensor networks, a wakeup radio scheme is presented. The main transceiver that is responsible for data communication is in the sleep mode most of the time. An additional device...
