The stability criterion of the DSM car-following model is obtained by the linear system stability theory. Numerical simulations are in good agreement with the analytical results, which reveals that the response time would significantly influence the stability of traffic flow on a straight road. The numerical results also indicate that intelligent driving can help to reduce traffic congestion because the unstable flow can be stabilized by adopting the response time.","PeriodicalId":445441,"journal":{"name":"2017 13th IEEE Conference on Automation Science and Engineering (CASE)","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114682499","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}

Performance analysis of hard disk drive (HDD) plays a fundamental role to improve the efficiency of storage system. State-dependent M/G/1/K queue is used to model HDD, but it does not have a closed-form solution in the literature. In this paper, we use an M/G/1/K with state-dependent service time to formulate the dynamics of disk random access, where the service time depends on the queue length (batch size of requests determined by the queue length). A numerical computation approach is then proposed to compute the steady state distribution of this queuing model. By utilizing the block structure of transition probability matrix, we further develop an approach to speed up the computation, which can reduce the model complexity from O(K6) to O(K3). Finally, we apply this approach to a case study of hard disks of Western Digital Corp. It demonstrates the efficiency of our approach and gains useful insights for the optimization of storage system.","PeriodicalId":445441,"journal":{"name":"2017 13th IEEE Conference on Automation Science and Engineering (CASE)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126468235","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 mode, Social Manufacturing Network (SMN) integrates distributed Socialized Manufacturing Resources (SMRs) to provide more precise and professional service for customers. As a decentralized network, SMN cannot ensure the cross-enterprise collaborations because there is no trusted third party as supervisor. In this paper, a blockchain-based Production Credit Mechanism (PCM) for manufacturing services is put forward to regulate the cross-enterprise collaborations among SMRs. The frame and concept of PCM are firstly given, followed by four key enabling technologies supporting the implementation of the mechanism.

Various methods have been developed to monitor the energy consumption rate and predict the consumption efficiency for a given operating condition. The main challenges to maintain the accuracy of modeling and prediction stem from the great diversity of operational and environmental inputs that affect the energy consumption rate dynamically, as well as the lack of a full understanding of the physical relationship between energy efficiency and operation parameters of the system. Operating condition is a key component in system modeling and state identification in many applications because not only the system parameters, but also the structure and complexity of a model might vary significantly during different operation modes. This paper investigates a novel method that integrates a physics-based hydrodynamic model and dynamic parameter learning and estimation, using energy consumption monitoring data and operating condition data, in purpose of improving the prediction accuracy of energy consumption. By leveraging the strengths of both the physics-based models and data-driven parameter learning methods, the proposed method is advantageous when the complex system physics is not perfectly known and the performance of system is affected by the environmental operating condition, while abundant monitoring data are available. We demonstrate the model on a ship propulsion system for fuel consumption prediction, which achieves higher prediction accuracy compared with models without operating condition adaption and tuning.","PeriodicalId":445441,"journal":{"name":"2017 13th IEEE Conference on Automation Science and Engineering (CASE)","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131796545","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 interaction of AC system and DC system after fault is considered in evaluation process. The transient stability analysis is performed firstly when fault occurs in the system and BPA software is applied to the analysis to improve the computational accuracy and speed. Then the new system state is generated according to the transient analysis results. Then a minimum load shedding model of AC/DC hybrid system with HVDC is proposed. And then adequacy analysis is taken to the new state.

We propose a distributed algorithm based on ADMM (Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers) for use in large scale optimization problems in smart grid monitoring. The proposed solution is based upon a local-based optimization process, where a limited amount of information is exchanged only between neighboring nodes in a locally broadcast fashion. Applying the approach to two illustrating examples demonstrates it allows exploiting the scalability and efficiency of distributed ADMM for distributed smart grid monitoring.","PeriodicalId":445441,"journal":{"name":"2017 13th IEEE Conference on Automation Science and Engineering (CASE)","volume":"85 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132916168","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}
