Применение метода контрольных возмущений для определения характерных узлов присоединения комплексной нагрузки при расчетах динамической устойчивости
Рассматривается влияние способа замещения комплексной нагрузки на характер электромеханических переходных процессов в электрических системах (ЭС) от действия больших возмущений. Показано, что установить общие рекомендации относительно способа замещения нагрузки в сложных ЭС затруднительно. Предлагается для определения характерных узлов нагрузки, оказывающих существенное влияние на характер динамического перехода, применять известный метод контрольных возмущений. Приводятся результаты сравнительных расчетов с использованием предлагаемой методики
Nanoscale Metallic Iron for Environmental Remediation: Prospects and Limitations
The amendment of the subsurface with nanoscale metallic iron particles
(nano-Fe0) has been discussed in the literature as an efficient in situ
technology for groundwater remediation. However, the introduction of this
technology was controversial and its efficiency has never been univocally
established. This unsatisfying situation has motivated this communication whose
objective was a comprehensive discussion of the intrinsic reactivity of
nano-Fe0 based on the contemporary knowledge on the mechanism of contaminant
removal by Fe0 and a mathematical model. It is showed that due to limitations
of the mass transfer of nano-Fe0 to contaminants, available concepts cannot
explain the success of nano-Fe0 injection for in situ groundwater remediation.
It is recommended to test the possibility of introducing nano-Fe0 to initiate
the formation of roll-fronts which propagation would induce the reductive
transformation of both dissolved and adsorbed contaminants. Within a
roll-front, FeII from nano-Fe0 is the reducing agent for contaminants. FeII is
recycled by biotic or abiotic FeIII reduction. While the roll-front concept
could explain the success of already implemented reaction zones, more research
is needed for a science-based recommendation of nano- Fe0 for subsurface
treatment by roll-front

Distributed run-time resource management for malleable applications on many-core platforms
Todays prevalent solutions for modern embedded systems and general computing employ many processing units connected by an on-chip network leaving behind complex superscalar architectures In this paper, we couple the concept of distributed computing with parallel applications and present a workload-aware distributed run-time framework for malleable applications on many-core platforms. The presented framework is responsible for serving in a distributed way and at run-time, the needs of malleable applications, maximizing resource utilization avoiding dominating effects and taking into account the type of processors supporting platform heterogeneity, while having a small overhead in overall inter-core communication. Our framework has been implemented as part of a C simulator and additionally as a runtime service on the Single-Chip Cloud Computer (SCC), an experimental processor created by Intel Labs, and we compared it against a state-of-art run-time resource manager. Experimental results showed that our framework has on average 70% less messages, 64% smaller message size and 20% application speed-up gain. Copyright © 2013 ACM
