최근 Web 서비스, MP3, 동영상 재생, 무선통신 등 다양한 기능을 제공하는 스마트폰, 테블릿 PC와 같이 베터리로 동작하는 디지털 컨버젼스 기기들의 사용량이 증가되었고, 이러한 이동형 임베디드 기기들은 베터리 용량에 따라 사용시간이 제한된다. 그렇기 때문에 기기들의 평가항목 중 전력소모라는 성능지표가 대두되고 있으며, 소비전력을 낮추기 위한 저전력 기법이 전 세계적으로 연구되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이동형 임베디드 기기에 사용 가능한 cnu_RTOS에 DPM(Dynamic Power Management)과 S3C2450에서 제공하는 DPM(Device Power Management)을 이용한 저전력 기능을 구현하여, 소비전력 감소율을 측정하였다.

STT-RAM is attracting as a next generation Non-volatile memory for replacing cache memory with low leakage energy, high integration and memory access performance similar to SRAM. However, there is problem of write operations as the other Non_volatile memory. Hybrid cache memory using SRAM and STT-RAM is attracting attention as a cache memory structure with lowe power consumption. Despite this, reducing the leakage energy consumption by the STT-RAM is still lacking access to the Dynamic energy. In this paper, we proposed as energy management method such as a way-selection approach for hybrid L2 cache fo SRAM and STT-RAM and memory selection method of write/read operation. According to the simulation results, the proposed hybrid cache memory reduced the average energy consumption by 40% on SPEC CPU 2006, compared with SRAM cache memory.

In recent years, embedded mobile systems have been expanding their application domains from embedded portable devices which only execute a specialized application such as MP3 player or digital camcoder to digital convergence devices which execute more complicated applications converged various functionalities such as video and audio play, digital dictionary, DMB, games, phone, etc. As it requires the increasing hardware performance such as more faster CPU and more larger RAM, display, disk size, it has brought about a corresponding increase in power consumption. However, coupled with relatively small gains in battery capacity over recent years, the importance of software architecture including intelligent power management has become paramount. In this paper, we have ported UbiFOSTM with energy saving techniques on the ARM9-based MBA2440 platform. For energy savings, we adapted the dynamic power management and the device power management schemes based on monitoring workload. Experimental results with some well-known applications show that proposed low power technique could save energy up to 24 %.

A smart grid is an electric-power grid that employs a new information technology.This technology makes it possible to exchange real-time energy information between suppliers and consumers, finally resulting in high energy efficiency. The energy management system in smart grid provides up to date information on electricity consumption as well as dynamic electricity price to consumers of smart grid system. However, the existing energy management systems only focus on pricing system, for example, real-time electricity prices. In this paper, we try to improve the existing energy management system and propose the energy management system that mainly focuses on the efficiency of electricity consumption. In the proposed management system, PMU(Phasor Measurement Units) installed in switchboards gathers electricity data in a real time. We also propose to use data mining method, which is applied to analyzed electricity data for improving energy efficiency. Also, the proposed energy management system is designed to efficiently control the electricity between PMU and management system in case of a shortage of electricity or surplus electricity.

Determination of the required reserve capacity has an important function in operation of power system and it is calculated based on the largest loss of supply. However, conventional method cannot be applied in future power system, because potential grid-connected distributed generator and abnormal temperature cause the large load imbalance. Therefore this paper address new framework for determining the optimal required reserve capacity taking into account the real time load imbalance. At first, we introduce the way of operating reserve resources which are the secondary, tertiary, Direct Load Control (DLC) and Load shedding reserves to make up the load imbalance. Then, the formulated problem can be solved by the Probabilistic Dynamic Programming (PDP) method. In case study, we divide two cases for comparing the cost function between the conventional method and the proposed method.

In recent years, integration of new distributed generation (DG) technology in distribution networks has become one of the major management concerns for professional engineers. This paper presents a dynamic methodology of optimal allocation and sizing of DG units for a given practical distribution network, so that the cost of active power can be minimized. The approach proposed is based on a combined Genetic/Fuzzy Rules. The genetic algorithm generates and optimizes combinations of distributed power generation for integration into the network in order to minimize power losses, and in second step simple fuzzy rules designs based upon practical expertise rules to control the reactive power of a multi dynamic shunt FACTS Compensator (SVC, STATCOM) in order to improve the system loadability. This proposed approach is implemented with the Matlab program and is applied to small case studies, IEEE 25-Bus and IEEE 30-Bus. The results obtained confirm the effectiveness in sizing and integration of an assigned number of DG units.

As the distributed power system with PV and ESS is highlighted to be one of the most prominent structure to replace the traditional electric power system, power flow scheduling is expected to bring better system efficiency. Optimal energy management system (EMS) where the power from PV and the grid is managed in time-domain using ESS needs an optimization process. In this paper, main optimization method is implemented using dynamic programming (DP). To overcome the drawback of DP in which ideal future information is required, prediction stage precedes every EMS execution. A simple auto-regressive moving-average (ARMA) forecasting followed by a PI-controller updates the prediction data. Assessment of the on-line optimal EMS scheme has been evaluated on several cases.
