Towards energy-performance trade-off analysis of parallel applications
… on a parallel architecture have different trade-offs, depending on how many cores the algorithm uses, at what frequencies these cores operate, and the structure of the algorithm. The problem of defining metrics to quantify energy performance trade-offs was posed as an important open problem …

Trade-off analysis with cost consideration for quality function deployment
… customer satisfaction and cost targets through a trade-off analysis. The formulation gives a set of Pareto-optimal solutions, i.e. listing down all a??equally gooda?? alternatives, which can provide a basis for further consideration by the management. Other developments are also undertaken so as …

Trade-off analysis of accuracy and spatial resolution in strategic forest planning models
… planning models. In this study, a sensitivity analysis on spatial generalization was conducted to examine the trade-off between accuracy and spatial resolution to meet the objectives of strategic planning. Five scenarios were designed by generalizing forest cover polygons into the uniform …

A decomposition-based approach to linking strategy, performance measurement, and manufacturing system design
… and structure (i.e., design alternatives). Trade-offs among these design alternatives are examined, enabling designers to select the most appropriate feasible alternative and to identify opportunities for improvements. A structured process for trade-off analysis is developed to aid designers …

Lateral stability analysis and MPC tracking control for articulated heavy vehicles
… for improving the stability of AHVs, the trade-off between the static and dynamic instabilities is a necessary research topic. To analyze this trade-off, three different trailer payload schemes and two different tractor rear axle arrangements are considered. This trade-off is quantified …

Design and Analysis of Defect- and Fault-tolerant Nano-Computing Systems
… designers with the capability to carry out trade-off analysis in terms of area, delay, redundancy and reliability. During execution, the next state of a digital system is only dependent on the present state and the digital signals propagate in discrete time. Hence, we have used Markov …

An analysis of distributed solar fuel systems
While solar fuel systems offer tremendous potential to address global clean energy needs, most existing analyses have focused on the feasibility of large centralized systems and applications. Not much research exists on the feasibility of distributed solar fuel systems. This thesis is an attempt to …

A Value Approach To Complex System Design Utilising A Non-Rigid Solution Space
… model causes the designer to make poor value trades. To overcome these problems the VSSD technique incorporates desirements and their associated design desirability functions within the design process to create a non-rigid solution space while the value model has been redeveloped to easily …
