Grid Computing: Towards a Global Interconnected Infrastructure (Computer Communications and Networks)
Grid Computing: Towards a Global Interconnected Infrastructure (Computer Communications and Networks)

Grid Computing was a vision of using and sharing computers and data in the early 1990s. The integration, coordination, and sharing of computer resources which are geographically disperse among different physical domains and organizations became an every day reality. This emerging infrastructure aims to provide a mechanism for sharing...

Renewable and Efficient Electric Power Systems
Renewable and Efficient Electric Power Systems
Engineering for sustainability is an emerging theme for the twenty-first century, and the need for more environmentally benign electric power systems is a critical part of this new thrust. Renewable energy systems that take advantage of energy sources that won’t diminish over time and are independent of fluctuations in...
Windows Azure programming patterns for Start-ups
Windows Azure programming patterns for Start-ups
Windows Azure was officially announced at PDC 2008, but looking back, I had a quick look in the kitchen of Windows Azure in 2007 while I was visiting Redmond during the Lead Enterprise Architect Program (LEAP) sessions. Pat Helland, a senior architect at Microsoft, gave a talk on The irresistible forces meet the movable objects....

Development and Modelling of a Thermophotovoltaic System
Development and Modelling of a Thermophotovoltaic System
The thermophotovoltaic (TPV) generation of electricity is based on the direct conversion of a thermal radiation coming from an emitter at high temperature into electric power by using photovoltaic (PV) cells. As shown in Figure 1.1 a heat source (generally a combustion process) is used to heat up an emitter material that converts...
