Detection of separable predicates on series-parallel systems
… on distributed computations having the series-parallel property. This deviates from the approach used in the past where the detection problem was addressed for small classes of predicates to be detected on general distributed computations. The detection algorithm is based on a …

Construction of Reliable Series-Parallel Networks: A Combinatorial Approach
… by number of links. This thesis studies maximal series-parallel graphs (equivalent to a class of graphs known as 2-trees) and closely related graphs. We coin the term generalized fan to describe those maximal series-parallel networks with the fewest vertices of degree two. We find a simple …

Development of a Series Parallel Energy Management Strategy for Charge Sustaining PHEV Operation
… Future Advanced Vehicle Technology Competition series organized by Argonne National Lab (ANL), and sponsored by General Motors Corporation (GM) and the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). The goals of the competition are to reduce well-to-wheel (WTW) petroleum energy consumption (PEU), WTW …

On the Synthesis of Passive Networks without Transformers
… a biquadratic minimum function), among all series-parallel networks. Moreover, we show that these procedures produce the only series-parallel networks which contain exactly six reactive elements and two resistors and realise a biquadratic minimum function. We further show that the networks …

Machine learning and combinatorial methods for discrete optimization problems
… the most important problems in this field are parallel machine scheduling problems and network flow problems, which have attracted sustained research in operations research and computer science for over half a century. In this thesis, we develop and implement algorithms for variants of these …

Model realization using sensitivity functions
… the hybrid pi transistor model and possibly a series, parallel, series-parallel, or parallel-series connection would prove even more beneficial than the cascaded block time domain approach.

Dynamic reconfigurable battery systems via graph-based deep reinforcement learning
… or thousands of battery cells connected in fixed series-parallel configurations. These rigid topologies limit efficient power management, making it difficult to respond to dynamic cell imbalance and thereby reducing overall battery operating time. To address these limitations, reconfigurable …

Enhanced Mineralization of Phenol and other Hydroxylated Compounds in a Photocatalytic Process assisted with Ferric Ions
… PC reaction of phenol is represented with a series-parallel reaction network incorporating all intermediate species and their interactions. Intermediate compounds include aromatics (ortho-dihydroxybenzene, para-dihydroxybenzene and 1,4-benzoquinone) and carboxylic acids (fumaric acid, maleic …

Effective modeling of throughput time in semiconductor assembly processes
… dependent. In addition, we devise heuristics to parallelize the simulation process and significantly reduce computational expense in DES models, thereby affording the inclusion of detailed factors. We perform various sensitivity studies on the assembly's constraining process which indicate that …

Time dependant redundancy optimization
… optimal reliability design models with a series-parallel system are formulated. An efficient heuristic procedure for each problem is elucidated, and the results are described. The redundancy optimization problem using the time-dependent reliability function is solved so that the system …

Multicriteria optimisation in design for reliability
A novel methodology for series-parallel systems’ reliability optimisation has been proposed developed and tested. It formulates the problem as a multi-criteria optimisation, to maximise the subsystem reliabilities while minimising the system cost modelled as a penalty function of component …

Contention Bounds for Locking Computations
… by expanding the theoretical model of task-parallel execution traces to account for mutual exclusion locks. While lock profiling and contention detection tools abound in software, empirical measurements of contention suffer from wide fluctuations across different executions of the same code …

Nondeterminator-3 : a provably good data-race detector that runs in parallel
… the Nondeterminator-3, which runs efficiently in parallel. A data race occurs in a multithreaded program when two logically parallel threads access the same location while holding no common locks and at least one of the accesses is a write. The Nondeterminator-3 checks for data races in programs …

Provably good race detection that runs in parallel
A multithreaded parallel program that is intended to be deterministic may exhibit nondeterminism clue to bugs called determinacy races. A key capability of race detectors is to determine whether one thread executes logically in parallel with another thread or whether the threads must operate in …

A MULTI-AGENT BASED APPROACH FOR SOLVING THE REDUNDANCY ALLOCATION PROBLEM
… a well known mathematical problem for modeling series-parallel systems. It is a combinatorial optimization problem which focuses on determining an optimal assignment of components in a system design. Due to the diverse possible selection of components, the RAP is proved to be NP-hard. Therefore, …
