Dynamic power budget redistribution under a power cap on multi-application environments

We present a two-level implementation of an infrastructure that allows performance maximization under a power-cap on multi-application environments with minimal user intervention. At the application level, we integrate BAR (Power Budget-Aware Runtime Sched ...

Techno-economic and environmental impact assessment of an olive tree pruning waste multiproduct biorefinery

Elia Mercedes Ruiz Pachon

This work focuses on the economic performance and environmental assessment of two biorefinery schemes using 100 t/day of olive tree pruning waste as feedstock. The first scheme is based on a multiproduct biorefinery producing 6363.64 m3/yr of ethanol, 999. ...

Crowdsourcing with Fairness, Diversity and Budget Constraints

Boi Faltings, Naman Goel

Recent studies have shown that the labels collected from crowdworkers can be discriminatory with respect to sensitive attributes such as gender and race. This raises questions about the suitability of using crowdsourced data for further use, such as for tr ...

Design of an Energy-Efficient Current-to-Frequency Converter for a Wearable Sensor Platform

Maher Kayal, Evgenia Voulgari, François Krummenacher

This paper presents the design of the ANTIGONE ASIC in AMS 0.35 mu m technology that interfaces with ion-sensitive field effect transistors (ISFETs) to detect biomarkers like pH, Na+ and K+ in human sweat. The ISFET sensors generate a low current dc signal ...

Information Gathering with Peers: Submodular Optimization with Peer-Prediction Constraints

Boi Faltings, Goran Radanovic, Andreas Krause

We study a problem of optimal information gathering from multiple data providers that need to be incentivized to provide accurate information. This problem arises in many real world applications that rely on crowdsourced data sets, but where the process of ...

Network design of a transport system based on accelerating moving walkways

Michel Bierlaire, Riccardo Scarinci, Iliya Dimitrov Markov

Pollution, congestion and urbanistic considerations are leading to a change in the use of private vehicles in dense city centers. More frequently, the last-mile is covered with systems such as public transport, car sharing and bike sharing as well as an in ...

A 65nm pixel readout ASIC with quick transverse momentum discrimination capabilities for the CMS Tracker at HL-LHC

Alessandro Caratelli, Davide Ceresa

A readout ASIC for the hybrid pixel detector with the capability of performing quick recognition of particles with high transverse momentum has been designed for the requirements of the CMS Outer Tracker at the High Luminosity LHC. The particle momentum di ...

Control of Interbank Contagion Under Partial Information

Léo Hamed Amini

We consider a stylized core-periphery financial network in which links lead to the creation of projects in the outside economy but make banks prone to contagion risk. The controller seeks to maximize, under budget constraints, the value of the financial sy ...

Energy/Reliability Trade-Offs in Low-Voltage ReRAM-Based Non-Volatile Flip-Flop Design

Giovanni De Micheli, Andreas Peter Burg, Davide Sacchetto, Yusuf Leblebici, Pierre-Emmanuel Julien Marc Gaillardon, Pascal Andreas Meinerzhagen

The total power budget of Ultra-Low Power (ULP) VLSI Systems-on-Chip (SoCs) is often dominated by the leakage power of embedded memories as well as status registers. On the one hand, supply voltage scaling down to the near-threshold (near-VT

The emergence of an educational tool industry: Opportunities and challenges for innovation in education

Dominique Foray, Julio Diego Salvador Raffo

The paper addresses two issues. One concerns the general conditions and procedures involved in the emergence of a tool industry. Tool industries emerge and evolve as a collection of capital goods and tool inventors and manufacturers. One of our goals is to ...

Leaning Against Boom-Bust Cycles in Credit and Housing Prices

Luisa Lambertini

This paper studies the potential gains of monetary and macro-prudential policies that lean against house-price and credit cycles. We rely on a model that features Borrowers and Savers and allows for over-borrowing induced by news-shock-driven cycles. We fi ...

Making Cluster Applications Energy-Aware

Dejan Kostic, Nedeljko Vasic, Vincent Salzgeber, Martin Barisits

Power consumption has become a critical issue in large scale clusters. Existing solutions for addressing the servers' energy consumption suggest ``shrinking'' the set of active machines, at least until the more power-proport-ional hardware devices become a ...

A Budget-balanced, Incentive-compatible Scheme for Social Choice

Boi Faltings

Many practical scenarios involve solving a social choice problem: a group of self-interested agents have to agree on an outcome that best fits their combined preferences. We assume that each outcome presents a certain utility to an agent and that the best ...

In situ characterization of impedance mismatch in a medium voltage network

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri

An in situ methodology is proposed to characterize the impedance mismatch at each power line communication transmission port in medium voltage network. Based on path loss and impedance measurements, a complete characterization of a non energized medium vol ...
