Master Slave Flip-Flop is advanced version of Flip-flops. To make Master Slave Flip-Flop Normal Flip-Flop is followed by Clocked S-R Flip-Flop. According to Moore's law the no. of transistor in a meticulous chip area is two times in every 18 months. This announcement gives new age of VLSI meadow. If we want to increase the no. of component in chip area so we diminish the size of component. Appling this quality in chip component, the size of transistor reduced. As we scale down the device parameter after a certain rule, the short channel effects like leakage power, surface scattering, velocity saturations, takes place. Fin-FET is a superior device to eliminate or decrease above mentioned problems. We evaluate the various parameters like temperature effect to the total power, total power consumption, average DC power, calculation etc. For calculation of these results we are use cadence tools. After simulating the circuit we get values of Average DC power which is 160nW, Instantaneous Transient Power Consumption is 65.20nW, Delay is 30nS.","PeriodicalId":337074,"journal":{"name":"2014 International Conference on Power, Control and Embedded Systems (ICPCES)","volume":"227 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128863021","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 control scheme is based on phase advance compensation technique used for the series controller. Using this technique the series controller not only compensates the voltage sag/swell but also controls the flow of power in the grid. The PV supported series controller also include DC-DC boost converter for maximum power point tracking (MPPT) and supports the dc link voltage of the VSL The proposed controller successfully controls the flow of power to the grid depending upon the availability of power from the PV system and requirement by the load.

One of the important limitation of the wireless sensor network is limited life-time, wireless nodes typically operates with small batteries for which replacement, when possible, is very difficult and expensive. Therefore nodes must operate without battery replacement for long time. Consequently, minimizing the energy consumption is a very important design consideration and energy-efficient transmission schemes must be used for the data transfer in wireless sensor networks. This paper, proposes the energy efficient transmission scheme to minimize the per node energy consumption. In the proposed scheme after the cluster formation in the network potential cluster head will select the cooperative node to transfer data from one cluster to other. The results shows that by transmitting and/or receiving information jointly, tremendous energy saving is possible for larger transmission distances, even after considering the local energy cost necessary for joint information transmission and reception.","PeriodicalId":337074,"journal":{"name":"2014 International Conference on Power, Control and Embedded Systems (ICPCES)","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129486638","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}

Digital databases of plants should be maintained for proper tracking of local flora and making data-driven policies/decisions for their preservation. Plant identification is important for medical as well as educational purposes but maintaining an exhaustive digital database is a challenging task due to the presence of large number of plant species. This paper proposes a system for building a digital database of local flora and recognizing different plants using their leaf images. The system proposed in this paper involves four steps: 1) image acquisition, 2) image preprocessing, 3) feature extraction, and 4) classification. Images are acquired using commonly available general purpose desktop scanner with white paper as a background. In the image-preprocessing module, the system applies several image-processing techniques to prepare a leaf image for the feature extraction process. Then twelve leaf-shape based features are estimated and IBI classifier is used to classify the plant species. The proposed system was used to build a dataset of local flora of Uttarakhand region, consisting of 1684 images of thirty-two different plant species. The database contains around fifty leaves of each plant species. The proposed system gives promising results with an average classification accuracy of 79% for these thirty species of plants.","PeriodicalId":337074,"journal":{"name":"2014 International Conference on Power, Control and Embedded Systems (ICPCES)","volume":"266 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123266770","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}
