The increasing cost of carbon based fuels pushes the electricity generation market towards more efficient electricity generation technologies. In this context, fuel cells offer the opportunity to increase efficiency and lower CO2 and NOx emissions, in part ...
In this paper we introduce a new hardware/software approach to reduce the energy of the shared register file in upcoming embedded architectures with several VLIW processors. This work includes a set of architectural extensions and special loop unrolling te ...
The consumption of primary energy is often used to compare energy systems from a sustainability viewpoint at regional, national or even world level. For such comparisons to be “fair” and meaningful, this implies however to define primary energies in a cohe ...
We use the intense, 5-ns-long, excitation pulses provided by the fourth harmonic of a neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd:YAG) laser to induce a strong high-energy shift of the photoluminescence of a 7.8-nm-wide GaN/Al0.15Ga0.85N single quantum wel ...

The pulp and paper (P&P) industry in industrially mature countries is facing a long-term crisis. Large and modern manufacturing facilities in tropical regions emerge as new competitors. The constant increase of energy costs has also contributed to the fina ...
The paper discusses the interest of the multi-objective optimization approaches for the design of complex energy systems and the basics of the original evolutionary algorithm used. The specific problems linked to the design of the concentrators of solar to ...
Supercapacitors represent one of the newest innovations in the field of electrical energy storage, and will find their place in many applications where energy storage is needed, or can help to the smoothing of strong and short time power solicitations of a ...
We propose methods for reducing the energy consumed by snoop requests in snoopy bus-based symmetric multiprocessor (SMP) systems. Observing that a large fraction of snoops do not find copies in many of the other caches, we introduce JETTY, a small, cache-l ...
