Perceived and Reported Reliability of the Electricity Supply at Three Urban Locations in Indonesia
Energies, 2018 This paper focuses on the reliability of electricity supply at three different locations in Indonesia, namely in Sumatra, Timor, and Papua, through a comparison of reported indices of power reliability (SAIFI and SAIDI) and experimental results from user

Proceedings of the IEEE, 2005 Securing a Grid environment presents a distinctive set of challenges. This work groups the activities that need to be secured into four categories: naming and authentication; secure communication; trust, policy, and authorization; and enforcement of access control. It examines the current state of the art in securing these activities and introduces new

Scintillating Grid Illusion Without the Grid [PDF]
i-Perception, 2020 The scintillating grid illusion is a phenomenon where illusory black spots are perceived on white patches located at the intersections of a grid pattern. In this study, I report that the illusory spots as observed in the illusion are perceived with a stimulus pattern without grid bars. In two experiments, I investigated the perceptual properties of the

Grid Characteristics and Uses: A Grid Definition [PDF]
, 2004 This paper discusses the concept of grid towards achieving a complete definition using main grid characteristics and uses found in literature. Ten definitions extracted from main literature sources have been studied allowing the extraction of grid characteristics while grid uses are defined in terms of the different types of application support ...

Robot Path Planning Based on Improved A* Algorithm
Cybernetics and Information Technologies, 2015 Due to the characteristic that A* algorithm takes a long time when traversing an OPEN table and a CLOSED table, an improved method is proposed that is a new way of array storing in an OPEN table and a CLOSED table.

The Effect of Answering in a Preferred Versus a Non-Preferred Survey Mode on Measurement
Survey Research Methods, 2014 Previous research has shown that offering respondents their preferred mode can increase response rates, but the effect of doing so on how respondents process and answer survey questions (i.e., measurement) is unclear.
