The function f(z) = $e^{p(z)}$ where p(z) is a polynomial of degree n has 2n Julia lines. Julia lines of $e^{p(z)}$ divide the complex plane into 2n equal sectors with the same vertex at the origin. In each sector, $e^{p(z)}$ has radial limits of 0 or innity. Main results of the paper are concerned with maximum curves of $e^{p(z)}$. We deal with some properties of maximum curves of $e^{p(z)}$ and we give some examples of the maximum curves of functions of the form $e^{p(z)}$.

Differential power processing (DPP) systems are among the most effective architectures for photovoltaic (PV) power systems because they are highly efficient as a result of their distributed local maximum power point tracking ability, which allows the fractional processing of the total generated power. However, DPP systems require a high-efficiency, high step-up/down bidirectional converter with broad operating ranges and galvanic isolation. This study proposes a single, magnetic, high-efficiency, high step-up/down bidirectional DC-DC converter. The proposed converter is composed of a bidirectional flyback and a bidirectional isolated switched-capacitor cell, which are competitively cheap. The output terminals of the flyback converter and switched-capacitor cell are connected in series to obtain the voltage step-up. In the reverse power flow, the converter reciprocally operates with high efficiency across a broad operating range because it uses hard switching instead of soft switching. The proposed topology achieves a genuine on-off interleaved energy transfer at the transformer core and windings, thus providing an excellent utilization ratio. The dynamic characteristics of the converter are analyzed for the controller design. Finally, a 240 W hardware prototype is constructed to demonstrate the operation of the bidirectional converter under a current feedback control loop. To improve the efficiency of a PV system, the maximum power point tracking method is applied to the proposed converter.

Our D2D (Device-to-Device) advertisement dissemination algorithm based on the convergence of a D2D communication and a social commerce service is able to efficiently deliver advertisement messages of small business owners. We here assume high user-density areas as target-areas, and these target areas can form several target-groups based on geographical proximity. Also, the isolated target-areas which are not included in the target-groups may have the opportunities for forming a new target-group in consideration of the maximum distance with AP. In this paper, we evaluate performances with respect to the total number of successfully received users and the average number of relay users in accordance with variation in the maximum distance for isolated target-areas.

A dP/dV feedback-controlled MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) method for photovoltaic power systems using II-SEPIC (Isolated Inverse-SEPIC; Single Ended Primary Inductance Converter) is presented and a current-mode dP/dV feedback-controlled MPPT method is devised to apply for the PV power converter system. A control strategy for the current-mode dP/dV feedback control system is developed in this paper and the proposed MPPT shows relatively satisfactory dynamics against rapidly changing insolation conditions. In order to verify the validity and effectiveness of the proposed method, simulations and experiments of the PV power system using II-SEPlC converter are performed. These simulation and experiment results show that the proposed method enables the PV power system to extract maximum power from the photovoltaic module against the solar insolation variation.

In this paper, we propose a software reliability growth model (SRGM) based on the testing domain, which is isolated by the executed test cases. This model assumes an imperfect debugging environment in which new faults are introduced in the fault-correction process. We consider that the fault detection rate of NHPP model is changed in the proposed SRGM. We obtain the maximum likelihood estimate, and compare goodness-of-fit with another existing software reliability growth model.

Limiting the displacement of seismic isolators causes a pounding phenomenon under severe earthquakes. Therefore, the ASCE 7-16 has provided minimum criteria for the design of the isolated building. In this research the seismic response of isolated buildings by Triple Friction Pendulum Isolator (TFPI) under the impact, expected, and unexpected mass eccentricity was evaluated. Also, the effect of different design parameters on the seismic behavior of structural and nonstructural elements was found. For this, a special steel moment frame structure with a surrounding moat wall was designed according to the criteria, by considering different response modification coefficients (RI), and 20% mass eccentricity in one direction. Then, different values of these parameters and the damping of the base isolation were evaluated. The results show that the structural elements have acceptable behavior after impact, but the nonstructural components are placed in a moderate damage range after impact and the used improved methods could not ameliorate the level of damage. The reduction in the RI and the enhancement of the isolator's damping are beneficial up to a certain point for improving the seismic response after impact. The moat wall reduces torque and maximum absolute acceleration (MAA) due to unexpected enhancement of mass eccentricity. However, drifts of some stories increase. Also, the difference between the response of story drift by expected and unexpected mass eccentricity is less. This indicates that the minimum requirement displacement according to ASCE 7-16 criteria lead to acceptable results under the unexpected enhancement of mass eccentricity.

Since a 13% dietary protein level is generally accepted as a standard in evaluating net protein utilization values of protein sources in chicks, limiting amino acids a 13% protein basal diet containing 15% isolated soy-protein as the only source of dietary protein, were identified. Of such amino acids as methionine, lysine, threonine and tryptophan added to the basal diet singly or as a combination, methionine appeared as the only limiting amino acid for optimum growth of the chicks. When the requirement of total sulfur-containing acids (TSAA) was estimated as the point at which the dose-response curve intersected a line representing the plateau for maximum performance, the TSAA requirements for maximum growth and feed intake were 4.73% and 3.73% of dietary protein, respectively. The values, expressed in terms of TSAA intake, required for maximum weight gain, feed intake and gain/feed ratio were 167.1, 136.8 and 159.1 mg/bird/day, respectively.

This paper proposes a power conditioning system (PCS) for distributed photovoltaic (PV) applications using an asymmetric cascaded multilevel inverter with a single PV source. One of the main disadvantages of the cascaded multilevel inverters in PV systems is the requirement of multiple isolated DC sources. Using multiple PV strings leads to a compromise in either the voltage balance of individual H-bridge cells or the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) operation due to localized variations in atmospheric conditions. The proposed PCS uses a single PV source with a flyback DC-DC converter to facilitate a reduction of the required DC sources and to maintain the voltage balance during MPPT operation. The flyback converter is used to provide input for low-voltage H-bridge cells which processes only 20% of the total power. This helps to minimize the losses occurring in the proposed PCS. Furthermore, transient analyses and controller design for the proposed PCS in both the stand-alone mode and the grid-connection mode are presented. The feasibility of the proposed PCS and its control scheme have been tested using a 1kW hardware prototype and the obtained results are presented.

In this paper, design algorithms for SMP(Single Mated Pair) and MMP (Multipli Mated Pair) structure of CCS (Common Channel Signaling) network are proposed through the study of the structure of CCS network. High reliability and fast messagy transfer time are the most important requirements for the CCS network. Based on it, three parameters such as monotraffic, reliability (maximum isolated SP(Signalling Point) number when any two STP(Signalling Transfer Points) fail and total network cost are defined. And the proposed algorithms different from preexisted algorithm that minimizes total network cost, maximize monotraffic with two constraints, reliability and total network cost. Comparing the experimental results of the proposed algorithms with those of the preexisted algorithm that minimizes total network cost, shows that the proposed algorithms produce a more reliable topology that has more monotraffic and a little higher total network cost. Additionaly, with the results of the proposed algorithms, SMP and MMP structures are compared.

In the car environment that the first priority is a safety problem, the large vocabulary isolated word recognition system with POI domain is required as the optimal HMI technique. For the telematics terminal with a highly limited processing time and memory capacity, it is impossible to process more than 100,000 words in the terminal by the general speech recognition methods. Therefore, we proposed phoneme recognizer using the phonetic GMM and also PDM Levenshtein distance with multi-layer architecture for the POI recognition of telematics terminal. By the proposed methods, we obtained high performance in the telematics terminal with low speed processing and small memory capacity. we obtained the recognition rate of maximum 94.8% in indoor environment and of maximum 92.4% in the car navigation environments.
