Efficient ICT for efficient Smart Grids [PDF]

open access: yes2012 IEEE PES Innovative Smart Grid Technologies (ISGT), 2012
In this extended abstract the need for efficient and reliable ICT is discussed. Efficiency of ICT not only deals with energy-efficient ICT hardware, but also deals with efficient algorithms, efficient design methods, efficient networking infrastructures, etc. Efficient and reliable ICT is a prerequisite for efficient Smart Grids.

Efficiency 360: Efficient Vision Transformers

open access: yesCoRR, 2023
Transformers are widely used for solving tasks in natural language processing, computer vision, speech, and music domains. In this paper, we talk about the efficiency of transformers in terms of memory (the number of parameters), computation cost (number of floating points operations), and performance of models, including accuracy, the robustness of ...

The Efficiency of Equity [PDF]

open access: yesReview of Political Economy, 2008
Abstract In standard neoclassical economics, efficiency and equity issues are largely treated as separate and separable issues. While this has been challenged within and outside the neoclassical tradition for some time, this paper argues that four recent strands of literature largely within the neoclassical tradition provide a solid empirical ...

Increasing the efficiency of study selection for systematic reviews using prioritization tools and a single-screening approach

open access: yesSystematic Reviews, 2023
Background Systematic literature screening is a key component in systematic reviews. However, this approach is resource intensive as generally two persons independently of each other (double screening) screen a vast number of search results.

Resource Efficiency: A New Paradigm on Energy Efficiency and Spectral Efficiency Tradeoff [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications, 2014
Spectral efficiency (SE) and energy efficiency (EE) are the main metrics for designing wireless networks. Rather than focusing on either SE or EE separately, recent works have focused on the relationship between EE and SE and provided good insight into the joint EE-SE tradeoff.
