Due to its many advantages such as the improved power quality, high energy efficiency and controllability, etc., the variable speed wind turbine using a double-output induction generator (DOIG) is becoming a popular concept and thus the modeling of the DOIG based wind turbine becomes an interesting research topic. As the wind power penetration continually increases, power utilities concerns are shifting focus from the power quality issue to the stability problem caused by the wind power connection. In such cases, it becomes important to consider the wind power impact properly in the power system planning and operation. Unfortunately, few power system analysis tools have included wind turbine models such as have been developed for traditional Power generators. The paper develops analytical steady-state and dynamic models to provide this insight and correlates the operating performance of DOIG for wind energy conversion systems using MATLAB-Simulink environment. This paper considers a grid-connected system; a further paper will describe a stand-alone system.","PeriodicalId":269929,"journal":{"name":"2008 First International Conference on Emerging Trends in Engineering and Technology","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124121341","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thus generating a set of rules, this is used by the forthcoming operation on the XML database. The constraint validator checks for integrity, referential integrity, relative, absolute and value based constraints on the single, the intra and inter document database. The validator obtained by our method is used not only for checking the correctness of the existing XML document but also for incrementally validating updates over this document. The validator maintains the consistency of XML data after update operations, which can be classified into insertion, deletion and replacement. In this way both the static and incremental constraints checking are performed. The experimental results generated from the real data reveal that the algorithm works well in practice.","PeriodicalId":269929,"journal":{"name":"2008 First International Conference on Emerging Trends in Engineering and Technology","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123516153","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The DTC scheme is characterized by the absence of PI regulators, coordinate transformations, current regulators and PWM signals generators. In spite of its simplicity, DTC allows a good torque control in steady state and transient operating conditions to be obtained. This paper is aimed to analyze DTC principles, the strategies and the problems related to its implementation and the possible improvements using Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (SVPWM). In SVPWM for each sampling period the switching instants of different space vectors are determined to reduce torque ripple. The time durations of two adjacent voltage space vectors and the corresponding zerovoltage space vectors are determined in this method depending on maximum and average switching frequency, allowable for the switching devices in the three phase inverter. Simulation studies have been carried out for different operating conditions of the drive system. The results have been presented and compared with those of the conventional method.","PeriodicalId":269929,"journal":{"name":"2008 First International Conference on Emerging Trends in Engineering and Technology","volume":"151 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123653477","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Barrel shifter is an important block in the processor design and not much effort has been done to minimize itpsilas power dissipation. A barrel shifter needs nlog2n MUX for n-bit shifting and therefore designing a MUX for low power to use it as a repetitive block in the barrel shifter will considerably reduce the simulation time. This paper compares conventional CMOS based design with adiabatic All the circuits are designed using cell based design approach and 180 nm device size in Cadence.

The material properties are modeled as independent basic random variables. The temperature field considered is assumed to be a uniform distribution over the plate surface and through the plate thickness. The material properties are assumed to be independent of temperature. Based on the higher order deformation theory, C0 finite element method is employed to derive the eigen value problems in term of fundamental frequency. A mean-centered first order perturbation technique (FOPT) is adopted to evaluate the mean and standard derivation of the fundamental frequency with all edges simply supported boundary conditions. The effects of foundation parameters on the critical temperature are analyzed. The results have been validated with independent Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) and those available in the literature.","PeriodicalId":269929,"journal":{"name":"2008 First International Conference on Emerging Trends in Engineering and Technology","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122109833","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper I have used genetic algorithm to find the solution for this kind of problem. Genetic algorithms are being used extensively in optimization problem as an alternative to traditional heuristics. It is an appealing idea that the natural concepts of evolution may be borrowed for use as a computational optimization technique and the result is \"genetic algorithm\", which is based on the principle \"survival of the fittest\" given by \"Darvin\"..

A lot of work has been done in the area of privacy and security in databases. Though the number of attacks and complexity for database attacks are increasing day by day, there has been no attempt to design honeypots for privacy enforcing databases. The use of honeypots for databases would help in confirming the suspicion (malafide intention) of a suspicious user without leaking the target information (information which would fulfill the malafide intention) to the attacker. We propose a framework for database honeypots for certain types of attacks in privacy context.

Two performance criteria were utilized for the comparison. First, settling times and overshoots of the frequency deviation were compared. Later, the absolute error integral analysis method was calculated to compare all the controllers. The Simulation results show that the FGPI controller developed in this study performs better than the other controllers with respect to the settling time and overshoot, and absolute error integral of the frequency deviation.","PeriodicalId":269929,"journal":{"name":"2008 First International Conference on Emerging Trends in Engineering and Technology","volume":"117 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131920984","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Comparing with the basic binary particle swarm optimization (BPSO), this improved algorithm introduces the distance between gbest and pbest as a new velocity update equation which maintains the diversity in the swarm and makes it more effective and efficient in solving MKP.
