Statistical Assertions for Validating Patterns and Finding Bugs in Quantum Programs

open access: yes, 2019
In support of the growing interest in quantum computing experimentation, programmers need new tools to write quantum algorithms as program code. Compared to debugging classical programs, debugging quantum programs is difficult because programmers have ...

Optimal multi‐period planning of the distribution network in the presence of wide‐spread penetration of small‐scale solar resources

open access: yesIET Renewable Power Generation, 2023
This paper proposes a mixed‐integer non‐linear programming (MINLP) model for the multi‐period active low voltage (LV) distribution network expansion planning problem, which can be solved by off‐the‐shelf optimization solvers. In addition, the wide‐spread

On the Location of Fog Nodes in Fog-Cloud Infrastructures

open access: yesSensors, 2019
In the fog computing paradigm, fog nodes are placed on the network edge to meet end-user demands with low latency, providing the possibility of new applications. Although the role of the cloud remains unchanged, a new network infrastructure for fog nodes
