TL;DR: A power analysis technique is developed that has been applied to two commercial microprocessors and can be employed to evaluate the power cost of embedded software and can help in verifying if a design meets its specified power constraints.
Abstract: Embedded computer systems are characterized by the presence of a dedicated processor and the software that runs on it Power constraints are increasingly becoming the critical component of the design specification of these systems At present, however, power analysis tools can only be applied at the lower levels of the design-the circuit or gate level It is either impractical or impossible to use the lower level tools to estimate the power cost of the software component of the system This paper describes the first systematic attempt to model this power cost A power analysis technique is developed that has been applied to two commercial microprocessors-Intel 486DX2 and Fujitsu SPARClite 934 This technique can be employed to evaluate the power cost of embedded software This can help in verifying if a design meets its specified power constraints Further, it can also be used to search the design space in software power optimization Examples with power reduction of up to 40%, obtained by rewriting code using the information provided by the instruction level power model, illustrate the potential of this idea >

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors re-examine linear MW-only ldquodcrdquo network power flow models and show that when their MW flows are reasonably correct, they can often offer compelling advantages.
Abstract: Linear MW-only ldquodcrdquo network power flow models are in widespread and even increasing use, particularly in congestion-constrained market applications. Many versions of these approximate models are possible. When their MW flows are reasonably correct (and this is by no means assured), they can often offer compelling advantages. Given their considerable importance in today's electric power industry, dc models merit closer scrutiny. This paper attempts such a re-examination.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the development and evaluation of an analytical method for the direct determination of transient stability, which is based on the analysis of transient energy and accounts for the nature of the system disturbance as well as for the effects of transfer conductances on systenmbehavior.
Abstract: This paper describes the development and evaluation of an analytical method for the direct determination of transient stability. The method developed is based on the analysis of transient energy and accounts for the nature of the system disturbance as well as for the effects of transfer conductances onsystenmbehavior. It has been evaluated on a 10 generator 39 bus system and on a 20 generator 118 bus system. The method predicts critical clearing times for first swing transient stability which agree very closely with the results of simulations.

TL;DR: In this paper, a generalized theory of instantaneous reactive power for three-phase power systems is proposed, which is valid for sinusoidal or nonsinusoidal, balanced or unbalanced, three phase power systems with or without zero-sequence currents and/or voltages.
Abstract: A generalized theory of instantaneous reactive power for three-phase power systems is proposed in this paper. This theory gives a generalized definition of instantaneous reactive power, which is valid for sinusoidal or nonsinusoidal, balanced or unbalanced, three-phase power systems with or without zero-sequence currents and/or voltages. The properties and physical meanings of the newly defined instantaneous reactive power are discussed in detail. A three-phase harmonic distorted power system with zero-sequence components is then used as an example to show reactive power measurement and compensation using the proposed theory.
