Optimized Scheduling Of Distribution Network With Distributed Generation Based On Coronavirus Herd Immunity Optimizer Algorithm, Xiaomeng Wu, Rongze Yuan, Yingliang Li, Qi Zhu

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: Following the large-scale entry of distributed new energy into the network, the uncertainty factor of the distribution network increases significantly, and the difficulty of reactive power optimization scheduling increases accordingly. Traditional optimization solutions have many limitations and shortcomings, and a dynamic reactive power optimization scheme for active distribution networks based on a multi-scenario approach is proposed. The mathematical modeling is carried out separately for the uncertainty of new energy and load, and the multi-scenario method is used to transform the uncertainty problem into a deterministic problem. A mathematical model is constructed on the distribution network side to pursue the …

Application Of Improved Path Tracking Algorithm In Robot Slam, Qian Li, Ye Tao, Hui Li 2023 School of Information Science and Technology, Qingdao University of Science and Technology, Qingdao 266061, China

Application Of Improved Path Tracking Algorithm In Robot Slam, Qian Li, Ye Tao, Hui Li

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: Mapping is an important part of automated logistics. At present, SLAM is widely used. However, in large-scale scenes, errors are accumulated because robots often repeatedly measure and scan the region edge, which makes it impossible to quickly build a high-precision and complete map. An autonomous mapping method based on auxiliary path tracking is proposed, in which the given initial sketch is grid denoised and the auxiliary path is fitted and improved by multi segment cubic polynomial. The improved pure pursuit algorithm is used to guide the robot to build the map and improve the total distance and time of …

A Critical Computing Curriculum Design Case: Exploring Tribal Sovereignty For Middle School Students, Kristin A. Searle, Aubrey Rogowski, Colby Tofel-Grehl, Mengying Jiang

Journal of Computer Science Integration

We report on our efforts to design an integrated computing curriculum for middle school students in Montana that is in line with the Kapor Center’s focus on culturally sustaining-revitalizing pedagogies. Montana provides a unique context for doing this work because a state constitutional mandate requires all K-12 students to learn about tribal histories and cultures through Indian Education For All (IEFA). IEFA centers around seven essential understandings about Indigenous peoples in Montana that are integrated across content areas. In addition, implementation of Montana’s CS standards began in the 2021–2022 school year. In the curricular design, we sought to bring together …

Isolation And Characterization Of Caffeine-Degrading Bacteria From Coffee Plantation Areas In Malaysia, Elvina Clarie Dullah, Mohd Fazli Farida Asras

Makara Journal of Technology

Decaffeination by microbial degradation is currently the most optimal and low-cost approach, involving only microbial cells and/or their enzymes. The bacterium was characterized using a series of biochemical tests. Positive results were obtained from carbohydrate fermentation, citrate utilization, and catalase tests, while negative results were obtained from Voges-Proskauer (VP) and indole tests. Three different caffeine concentrations of 0.25%, 0.4%, and 2% were tested and measured through Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrophotometry (GC-MS) analysis. The highest caffeine reduction (89.25%) was found when 0.25% caffeine was used in the media. Only a small amount of caffeine was reduced to 0.4% and 2%, with 34.78% …

Decentralized Computing For Reliable Home Automation, Rahav Dor 2023 Washington University in St. Louis

Decentralized Computing For Reliable Home Automation, Rahav Dor

McKelvey School of Engineering Graduate Student Theses & Dissertations

Smart homes are distributed systems that should provide reliable home automation services. Distributed controllers have been used to improve the reliability of smart homes. However, despite the redundancy in controllers, the reliability of smart homes is hindered by the unreliable network infrastructure comprising home Wi-Fi and low-power wireless networks. As a result, smart homes cannot be trusted with much more than casual automation to date. This dissertation identifies the limitations of traditional fault-tolerant approaches that require inter-controller coordination over an unreliable network infrastructure. A new class of decentralized control paradigm named Banyan, with fully autonomous controllers, is introduced by this …

Fragmentation is a fundamental term in the history of critical urban thought,yet the product of fragmentation is manifested in fragments. Urban fragmentationis used to describe the phenomenon that occurs when the urban environment isbroken up into smaller units or dispersed areas. This means that cities becomefragmented rather than cohesive and integrated. This disintegration can be the resultof various factors such as poor planning, lack of infrastructure, different land uses,and social dispersion. This research addresses the problem of urban fragmentationas one of the challenges facing the urban structure of cities, and clarifies the mostimportant factors affecting the city structure during the …

Using Artificial Intelligence To Diagnose Demented In The Elderly, Ohood Fadil Alwan

Al-Esraa University College Journal for Engineering Sciences

In addition to possible other symptoms, memory loss and impairment are the hallmarks of Demented or Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Despite the fact that dementia is incurable and has a significant negative impact on patients' lives, an early diagnosis can help start the right treatment and prevent additional brain damage. Over the years, machine learning techniques have been used to classify AD; nevertheless, the efficacy of the results depends on the use of multi-step classifiers and manually created features. Thanks to recent advances in deep learning, patterns may now be classified using neural networks' final stage. In order to diagnose dementia …
