Development and application of a ZigBee-based building energy monitoring and control system. [PDF]
Increasing in energy consumption, particularly with the ever‐increasing growth and development of urban systems, has become a major concern in most countries. In this paper, the authors propose a cost‐effective ZigBee‐based building energy monitoring and control system (ZBEMCS), which is composed of a gateway, a base station, and sensors. Specifically,

Abstract Performance and energy are the two most important objectives for optimization on heterogeneous high performance computing platforms. This work studies a mathematical problem motivated by the bi‐objective optimization of data‐parallel applications on such platforms for performance and energy. First, we formulate the problem and present an exact

Integrating ANFIS and Qt Framework to Develop a Mobile‐Based Typhoon Rainfall Forecasting System
Machine learning methods such as Adaptive Network‐Based Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) have been widely employed in intelligent urban storm water disaster warning for the purpose of smart city. However, there exists lack of research proposed for applying ANFIS and mobile application (App) to reach the purpose of smart city.

Linear array detector for online diagnostics of spectral distributions at MHz repetition rates
The novel line detector KALYPSO has been developed for the measurement of one‐dimensional profiles at high‐repetition‐rate free‐electron lasers (FELs) and synchrotron radiation facilities. The current version has 256 pixels with a continuous data readout at a maximum frame rate of 2.7 MHz.

Translating a system requirement into a low‐level representation (e.g., register transfer level or RTL) is the typical goal of the design of FPGA‐based systems. However, the Design Space Exploration (DSE) needed to identify the final architecture may be time consuming, even when using high‐level synthesis (HLS) tools. In this article, we illustrate our
