Synthesizing Energy-Efficient Embedded Systems with LOPOCOS

In this paper, we introduce the LOPOCOS (Low Power Co-synthesis) system, a prototype CAD tool for system level co-design. LOPOCOS targets the design of energy-efficient embedded systems implemented as heterogeneous distributed architectures. In particular, it is designed to solve the specific problems involved in architectures that include dynamic voltage scalable (DVS) processors. The aim of this paper is to demonstrate how LOPOCOS can support the system designer in identifying energy-efficient hardware/software implementations for the desired embedded systems. Hence, highlighting the necessary optimization steps during design space exploration for DVS enable architectures. The optimization steps carried out in LOPOCOS involve component allocation and task/communication mapping as well as scheduling and dynamic voltage scaling. LOPOCOS has the following key features, which contribute to this energy efficiency. During the voltage scaling valuable power profile information of task execution is taken into account, hence, the accuracy of the energy estimation is improved. A combined optimization for scheduling and communication mapping based on genetic algorithm, optimizes simultaneously execution order and communication mapping towards the utilization of the DVS processors and timing behaviour. Furthermore, a separation of task and communication mapping allows a more effective implementation of both task and communication mapping optimizationsteps. Extensive experiments are conducted to demonstrate the efficiency of LOPOCOS. We report up to 38% higher energy reductions compared to previous co-synthesis techniques for DVS systems. The investigations include a real-life example of an optical flow detection algorithm.

The costs and benefits of tonal centers for chord processing.

Harmonic priming studies have shown that a musical context, with its established tonal center, influences target chord processing. This study investigated costs and benefits of priming tonal centers for target processing by adding a baseline condition (sequences without a specific tonal center). Results confirmed harmonic priming, with faster processing for related than for unrelated and less related targets (tonic chord, out-of-key chord, subdominant chord). Comparing targets in baseline contexts with targets in sequences with well-established tonal centers revealed a benefit of processing for related targets but a cost of processing for unrelated and less related targets. Findings are discussed in terms of tonal knowledge activation and suggest that an activated tonal center gives rise to strong expectations for the tonic.

纵向零序电压保护新方案及其应用

由于结构设计的原因，综合性能较好的一些保护方案如横差保护和不完全纵差保护等将不能应用于大型超临界汽轮发电机。文中重点讨论了纵向零序电压保护方案的改进及其在应用中的问题。研究表明，发电机发生匝间短路故障时3次谐波电势减小，而机组外部故障时发电机3次谐波电势增大。因此，为了提高纵向零序电压保护方案的性能，可以根据故障时3次谐波电压增量的特性作为选取制动量的依据，从而提高保护性能。亦即:当3次谐波电压表现为负增量时，制动量取为0或接近0;而当3次谐波电压表现为正增量时，以该增量值作为制动量。此外，对匝间保护纵向零序电压元件增加一个小延时是可行的，它可以提高保护躲暂态3次谐波影响的能力。仿真计算表明，比例制动式纵向零序电压保护能可靠区分内外部故障，符合大型超临界汽轮发电机的保护要求。
