This paper reviews three main methods in reliability analysis for power systems and applies
them to a micro-grid with significant clean energy penetration. The approaches used are …

Microgrids are constituted of interconnected loads and dispersed energy resources. They
increase the reliability of the power supply, decrease the cost of the per unit energy and …

Complex software networks, as a typical kind of man-made complex networks, have
attracted more and more attention from various fields of science and engineering over the …

The traditional approach to prioritization of customer satisfaction (CS) attributes includes
methods such as analytic hierarchical process (AHP) that do not consider the correlation …

Micro-grids are becoming of more interest worldwide to achieve reliable electrical energy
infrastructure during natural hazards and catastrophic situations due to their ability to …

Recent trends toward increased flexibility and configurability in emerging applications
present demanding challenges for implementing systems that incorporate such capabilities …

Network systems are challenging to model because of the complexity inherent in the
software and hardware designs as well as the numerous ways that they may be synthesized …

This paper presents the RCP (reconfigurable hardware-software codesign platform
incorporating real-time task management technique) for hardware-software codesign of …

In this paper, we propose a novel hardware-software codesign technique of network
protocol stacks on a SoC (system on chip) platform for providing the QoS (quality of service) …

During the synthesis phase of the embedded system design process, the designer has to
