This study analyzes a ladder multilevel converter (double ladder topology) with the use of a new averaging modeling technique. This technique introduces an analytical method to compute for the switching losses and is used to conduct an in-depth analysis of the influence of the switching frequency and parasitic resistance of components on converter efficiency. The obtained results enable the selection of switches and switching frequency to minimize losses. Moreover, simulation results and experimental measurements validate the analytical calculations.

The optimized HVAC system design in tall buildings enable owners to save unnecessary energy consumption and residents to have comfort environments. The purpose of this study is to develop design process for optimized HVAC system design in tall buildings. As basic researches, literature researches and case studies of HVAC system design in tall buildings were performed. Survey was processed among expert in the field and key considerations on HVAC system design were drew as conclusions. With these conclusions, studies were performed on effects of wind velocity, outdoor air temperature, and solar radiation that are main factors of load calculation in tall buildings. Finally, air-tightness and stack effect were analyzed and estimated by literature studies, field measurements and computer simulations.

This paper deals with the determination of a firing sequence of transitions in the reachability problem of Safe Petri Net. The determination problem of a firing sequence is very important from the point of practical view, especially in the control of the discrete systems modelled by Safe Petri Net. The determination method of a firing sequence of transitions by means of the matrix equation for the discrete systems modelled by Safe Petri Net is proposed. First, a construction method of the indicence matrix and the firing rule for Safe Petri Net with self-loop are presented by defining the permissive arc in place of self-loop. Next, we develop a method that can find the enable transitions of Safe Petri Net by means of the matrix equation of Safe Petri Net. Finally, by using this method, we propose an algorithm that determines the firing sequence of transitions of Safe Petri Net.

The distribution line through which electricity is supplied from substation to customer generally varies by underground line and overhead line. In contrast that the underground line is shielded, the overhead lines do not have the shield layer. To overcome this weak point of the overhead lines, the aerial bundled cable(ABC) connection systems have been developed. The basic concept of the ABC connection system is the application of the underground cable system containing complete shield layer to the overhead cable system. The ABC system is the innovative technologies which enable the prevention of electric shocks, reduction of the maintenance charge and damage of the cable. This paper give a full detail of vertical connection system applied within a country.

This paper proposes a new driving scheme for single-phase SRM. The driving scheme is very simple and inexpensive. By use of this scheme, simple power devices based on low switching losses enable to high efficiency SRM drive. Starting, one of the main problem in single-phase SRM is overcome 2 using a parking magnet. This drive system has a high efficiency and robust drive characteristics compared to that of a universal motor.

In this paper a computer program has been developed using IT technologies for load flow analysis. The program is written in the Java language for the platform and operating system independence. The software technique, such as Standard Widget Toolkit (SWT), Graphical Editing Framework (GEF), and Java web start, are used for the program. The program also has Graphical User Interface (GUI) to enable users to construct power system displays through simple mouse clicks and map directly into visual power system elements on the screen. The input data of the elements of power system can be entered on the screen. The results of the program cail be checked on the screen.

Modem Industrial control systems tend to adopt a variety of intelligent wireless device controllers to interface front-end computers with active components of the industrial device. Some of the intelligent control systems come equipped with a wireless SMS(Simple Message Service) interface giving an opportunity to use fault alarm Interlock system. Immediately send warning or alert messages to Mobile devices or remote users. Real time monitoring the SMS systems by Mobile devices. Control systems remotely by mobile devices in emergency situation. In order to provide against system fault, SMS Mobile System will enable system administrator to promptly access, monitor and control the system whenever users want and wherever users are, by utilizing wireless Internet and mobile devices. This paper presents the Mobile SMS system for PAL Control System.

In this paper, we propose a new architecture of Genetic Algorithms(GAs)-based Backpropagation(BP). The conventional BP does not guarantee that the BP generated through learning has the optimal network architecture. But the proposed GA-based BP enable the architecture to be a structurally more optimized network, and to be much more flexible and preferable neural network than the conventional BP. The experimental results in BP neural network optimization show that this algorithm can effectively avoid BP network converging to local optimum. It is found by comparison that the improved genetic algorithm can almost avoid the trap of local optimum and effectively improve the convergent speed.

Recently, there is a rapidly growing demand for efficient real-tine playback and transmission of large amounts of multimedia data. But most users' connections are not fast enough to download large chunks of multimedia data. Therefore a streaming technology is needed in which users enable the real-time playback of multimedia date without having to download the whole of the multimedia date. In this paper, we propose a personalized IP streaming system. The proposed IP streaming system enables users to got an intelligent recommendation of multimedia contents based on the user preference information stored on the streaming server or the home media server. Moreover, users are assured of seamless access of streamed content event if they switch to another client device by implementing streaming system based on user identification and device information. We evaluate our approach with simulation results.
