Decision Tree-Based Online Voltage Security Assessment Using PMU Measurements
2009
IEEE Transactions on Power Systems
Timely and accurate assessment of voltage security is necessary to detect post-contingency voltage problems in order to prevent a large scale blackout. ...
The associated synchronized critical attributes are obtained in real time from phasor measurement units (PMUs) and compared with the offline thresholds determined by the DTs to assess security. ...
In such situations, the loss of critical transmission lines or transformers may cause a continuous decline of bus voltages and result in a voltage collapse if the system lacks effective reactive power ...

Combining compiler and runtime IPC predictions to reduce energy in next generation architectures
2004
Proceedings of the first conference on computing frontiers on Computing frontiers - CF'04
To achieve energy reduction, we use IPC information at various granularities, to adaptively adjust voltage and speed, and to throttle the fetch rate in response to changes in ILP. ...
One of the trends we expect is more extensive utilization of compiler information directly targeting energy optimizations. ...
By fetch-throttling at times of low-ILP, the branch prediction can be more effective. ...
