Strategy to systematically design and deploy the ITER plasma control system: A system engineering and model-based design approach

Federico Alberto Alfredo Felici, Richard Pitts, Federico Pesamosca, Anna Ngoc Minh Trang Vu

The paper details the process of developing the ITER Plasma Control System (PCS), that is, how to design and deploy it systematically, in the most efficient and effective manner. The integrated nature of the ITER PCS, with its multitude of coupled control ...

The Case for Performance Interfaces for Hardware Accelerators

George Candea, Jiacheng Ma, Rishabh Ramesh Iyer

While systems designers are increasingly turning to hardware accelerators for performance gains, realizing these gains is painstaking and error-prone. It can take several person-months to determine if a given accelerator is a good fit for a given piece of ...

Hallerbau in the age of reuse: renovation strategies for a serial heritage

Anna Mc Cuan

Fritz Haller (1924-2012) developed building systems Maxi (industrial halls), Midi (offices), and Mini (private homes) in the mid 1960’s with USM (current Haller-designed furniture manufacturer). Rejecting the individuality of most architectural projects, H ...

A semantic-driven tradespace framework to accelerate aircraft manufacturing system design

Jinzhi Lu, Xiaochen Zheng

During the design phase of an aircraft manufacturing system, different industrial scenarios need to be evaluated according to key performance indicators to achieve the optimal system performance. It is a highly complex process involving multidisciplinary s ...

A Theory of Value for Service Ecosystems

Blagovesta Hristova Kostova

In this thesis, we present a theory of value for the design and analysis of service ecosystems. The theory is based on general systems thinking. The concept of a system is used for relating knowledge from different disciplines (such as software engineering ...

Infochain: A Decentralized, Trustless and Transparent Oracle on Blockchain

Boi Faltings, Naman Goel, Aris Filos Ratsikas

Blockchain based systems allow various kinds of financial transactions to be executed in a decentralized manner. However, these systems often rely on a trusted third party (oracle) to get correct information about the real-world events, which trigger the f ...

On Katznelson's Question for skew product systems

Florian Karl Richter

Katznelson's Question is a long-standing open question concerning recurrence in topological dynamics with strong historical and mathematical ties to open problems in combinatorics and harmonic analysis. In this article, we give a positive answer to Katznel ...

Stock-constrained truss design exploration through combinatorial equilibrium modeling

Jan Friedrich Georg Brütting

Reusing structural components has potential to reduce environmental impacts of building structures because it reduces new material use, energy consumption, and waste. When designing structures through reuse, available element characteristics become a desig ...

Many-body localization in a fragmented Hilbert space

Loïc Jean Pierre Herviou

We study many-body localization (MBL) in a pair-hopping model exhibiting strong fragmentation of the Hilbert space. We show that several Krylov subspaces have both ergodic statistics in the thermodynamic limit and a dimension that scales much slower than t ...
