Efficient energy management in ultra-dense wireless networks by Wambi, Paul James

“…After cellassociation and resource allocation phases, the proposed solution in order to further reduce power consumption performs Cell On/Off. Then, by using the computer simulation tools/environments, the “Distributed Resource Allocation with Cell On/Off” scheme’s performance, in comparison to four other resource allocation schemes, is analysed and evaluated given a number of different network scenarios. …”

Fast and Accurate Automatic Design of Spiral Inductors from High-Level Specification by Ismail, Heba

“…Various approaches tackle this difficulty, but the most prevalent approaches for designing inductors are using an electromagnetic simulator or a library of pre-designed inductors. The latter approach requires an extensive amount of time and computational resources, whereas the former restricts the design space and performance. …”

Chaotic behaviour of disordered nonlinear lattices by Senyange, Bob

“…Furthermore, we investigate the numerical performance of several integrators (mainly based on the two part splitting approach) for the 1D and 2D DKG systems, by performing extensive numerical simulations of wave packet evolutions in the various dynamical regimes exhibited by these models. …”
