Architetture del divenire. Innovazioni contemporanee/Emerging Architecture. Contemporary Innovations (presentazione di Giuseppe Pellitteri) - Quadern…

2014

La posizione assunta dall'architettura all'inizio del ventunesimo secolo è ambigua e così la forma degli edifici che ambiscono a convogliare significati. Il processo di radicale trasformazione dell’architettura, avvenuto sin dal primo Novecento, quale conseguenza della graduale sostituzione delle tecniche edilizie tradizionali con le tecniche “moderne”, ha subito un notevole slancio nell'ultimo ventennio, per effetto del crescente mutamento tecnologico. I materiali, le tecniche costruttive e l’innovazione tecnologica hanno condizionato sensibilmente ed irreversibilmente il pensiero architettonico, producendo in questi ultimi anni nuove espressività linguistiche del tutto “insolite” rispetto…

Decentralized Deployment of Mobile Sensors for Optimal Connected Sensing Coverage

2008

In this paper, we address the optimal connected sensing coverage problem, i.e., how mobile sensors with limited sensing capabilities can cooperatively adjust their locations so as to maximize the extension of the covered area while avoiding any internal “holes”, areas that are not covered by any sensor. Our solution consists in a distributed motion algorithm that is based on an original extension of the Voronoi tessellation.

Transient stability simulation of a fixed speed wind turbine by Matlab/Simulink

2007

This paper describes the dynamic behavior of a typical fixed speed wind turbine connected to the grid; the model is developed in the simulation tool Matlab/Simulink and created as a modular structure. The pitch control system is used for stabilization of the wind turbine at grid faults. In this way, voltage stability of the system with grid-connected wind turbines can be improved by using blade-angle control for a temporary reduction of the wind turbine power during a short-circuit fault in the grid. This paper shows a new variable control for maintaining of voltage stability, when a three-phase fault is applied close to the wind turbine and cleared by disconnecting the affected line. In th…

A scalable multiagent system architecture for interactive applications

2013

Interactive applications like crowd simulations need to properly render the virtual world while simulating the interaction of thousands of agents at the same time. The computational workload generated by these two tasks highly increases with the number of the simulated agents, requiring a scalable design of the multiagent system. In this paper, we present, in an unified manner, a distributed multiagent system architecture that can manage large crowds of autonomous agents at interactive rates while rendering multiple views of the virtual world being simulated. This architecture consists of a distributed multiagent system and a complementary distributed visualization subsystem. We also presen…

Optimizing the Integration Area and Performance of VLIW Architectures by Hardware/Software Co-design

2021

The cost and the performance are major concerns that the designers of embedded processors shall take into account, especially for market considerations. In order to reduce the cost, embedded systems rely on simple hardware architectures like VLIW (Very Long Instruction Word) processors and they look for compiler support. This paper aims at developing a design space explorer of VLIW architectures from different perspectives like processing performance and integration area. A multi-objective Genetic Algorithm (GA) was used to find the optimum hardware configuration of an embedded system and the optimization rules applied by compiler on the benchmarks code. The first step consisted in represen…

Multi-Agent Based Energy Management in Microgrids Using MACSimJX

2019

Excessive growth in electricity consumption has been experienced over the past few years due to an increase in population around the world.This tends to increase the use of renewable energy and randomness of the load. So.it is important to improve the traditional methodologies and techniques applied on microgrid to make it more intelligent. In this paper, multi agent system is employed over autonomous microgrid framework to endorse its intelligence. The Multi-Agent system is simulated in Java Agent Development Environment (JADE) environment and matlab toolbox Simulink is used for the implementation of the microgrid model. Further, MACSimJX is used to communicate between the micro grid and a…

Large Networks of Dynamic Agents: Consensus under Adversarial Disturbances

2012

This paper studies interactions among homogeneous social groups within the framework of large population games. Each group is represented by a network and the behavior described by a two-player repeated game. The contribution is three-fold. Beyond the idea of providing a novel two-level model with repeated games at a lower level and population games at a higher level, we also establish a mean field equilibrium and study state feedback best-response strategies as well as worst-case adversarial disturbances in that context.

Emotional Business Intelligence : Enabling experience-centric business with the FeelingsExplorer

2014

The domain of Emotional Business Intelligence (EBI) aims to support business-relevant emotional and emotionaware decisions in addition to rational decision making. EBI originates from three root domains: Emotional Business, Emotional Intelligence and Business Intelligence (BI). In this paper we emphasize emotional empowerment of the traditional BI function; outline its main characteristics as a business working model of an emotionally smart, continuously learning organization; and introduce a first candidate of the EBI Toolkit, the FeelingsExplorer (FE). FE is a mash-up browser based on 4i (“ForEye”) technology, capable of visualizing objects in an emotional semantic space and thereby suppo…

Resource Allocation and Computation Offloading for Multi-Access Edge Computing With Fronthaul and Backhaul Constraints

2021

Edge computing is able to provide proximity solutions for the future wireless network to accommodate different types of devices with various computing service demands. Meanwhile, in order to provide ubiquitous connectivities to massive devices over a relatively large area, densely deploying remote radio head (RRH) is considered as a cost-efficient solution. In this work, we consider a vertical and heterogeneous multi-access edge computing system. In the system, the RRHs are deployed for providing wireless access for the users and the edge node with computing capability can process the computation requests from the users. With the objective to minimize the total energy consumption for proces…
