OLED display technology is gaining popularity among original equipment manufacturers (OEM). Production costs are decreasing, making this technology more readily available. OLED displays have a better contrast, no backlight and the ability to estimate the contribution of each pixel to the power of the display. This feature allows to experiment spatial algorithms to improve the image quality in relation to its power consumption. In this article we present a framework to evaluate the performance of spatial algorithms such asjust noticeable distortion and saliency maps on OLED displays. We introduce a comprehensive power model that takes into account each pixel value and the display screen brightness. We validate the effectiveness of this model by implementing a power reduction method based on power saving and perceptual quality metric.

Place-based Services Platform Quickly Establishing Connectivity Services between Smart Devices and E...

January 2016 · Fujitsu Scientific & Technical Journal

Recent years have seen the increasing adoption of smart devices in places where people gather for specific purposes, such as stores and schools. Hitherto, the realization of services to link people's smart devices to others' smart devices or equipment at a given place required a multitude of prior set-up processes for users, on the one hand, and complicated programming for application developers, ... [Show full abstract] on the other. Thus, Fujitsu Laboratories has developed platform technology for place-based services, enabling connectivity services to be established quickly, linking people's smart devices to others' smart devices or equipment at a given place without a need for member registration or driver installation. The technology may achieve a reduction of up to 90% in the time required for developing application programs to enhance the connectivity at places where people gather for particular purposes. Potential applications of this technology include facilitating group study in a school, providing product information to a customer's smart device in a store, or introducing merchandise by linking devices to a big screen display. This paper explains the component technologies for the place-based services platform and its applications, drawing on some actual cases.

Do distribution companies loose money with an electricity flexible tariff?: A review of the Chilean...

June 2013 · Proceedings of the ICE - Energy

We can get an (energy efficiency) EE improvement if we produce a flatter daily load curve, leading to a higher efficiency of the power system, making better use of the generation and transport electricity chain, thus avoiding over-investment in equipment used just few hours a year. Tariff flexibility of the (Time of Use) TOU type is one of these measures. Generally, TOU systems are designed to ... [Show full abstract] minimize total system cost, which may cause losses in distribution companies (DISCOs), generating opposition. On the contrary, the present paper proposes a TOU system for electricity consumption in Chile where optimal prices are obtained in order to maximize total income of DISCOs. In this manner, the proposed TOU system is, by definition, beneficial for DISCOs and it may lead to a win–win situation among DISCOs and consumers. In particular, we show that such a system, implemented in a country like Chile, would allow for DISCOs a total potential benefit of 811.7 millions of dollars for the 3-year study period (2005–2007), considering initiatives that promote a 5% savings in real consumption during on-peak hours, obtained by the spread or difference between the proposed and the current systems.

Safer formwork and falsework practice

October 2006

S. Bamford

SGB has improved its jumpform system by adding 4m-high edge protection screens and an optional function of a guided climbing system. The whole equipment is lifted without leaving the concrete face with the help of crane-lifted climbing formwork system or Multiform Guided Climbing. The GASS system is a lightweight aluminum shoring system with a 140kN heavy-duty capacity and features advance ... [Show full abstract] guardrails for safe erection and dismantling. The system enables greater volumes of falsework to be assembled being manufactured from lightweight aluminum components. SGB has enhanced the safe assembly of this product through a custom-designed advanced guardrail system, giving edge protection to the falsework erectors prior to them climbing onto the deck. It has also produced a one-hour-long DVD containing 3D animations of its formwork and falsework products being assembled and dismantled.

New method for monitoring scale buildup helps eliminate bleaching deposit problems

July 2003

A novel proprietary scale rate monitor (SRM) developed to quickly and accurately determine the scaling potential of various stages in a bleach plant is presented. The SRM allows pulp filtrates, squeezings, or process waters to be rapidly screened on site to determine their propensity for depositing calcium carbonate or calcium oxalate scales on equipment surfaces.

Capability limited-hierarchy evaluation of weapon equipment system based on ANP

April 2015

To solve the proplem of the combat capability comprehensive evaluation of weapon equipment system, a limited-hierarchy evaluation method is proposed based on the analytic network process (ANP). Taking into account the correlation between combat capabilities, the multi-level-network index system is built for the combat capability evaluation. And the equivalent processing unit is set based on ... [Show full abstract] capability requirement to map the system element into the capability. Furthermore, the limited-hierarchy model of combat capabilities is given and the index weight is gotten by utilizing the ANP. Based on it, general capability map is designed to display the evaluation result more reasonably. Finally, citing the armored equipment system as an example, efficiency of the proposed algorithm is analyzed and validated. ©, 2015, Xi Tong Gong Cheng Yu Dian Zi Ji Shu/Systems Engineering and Electronics.

Innovative Use of Quality Management Methods for Product Improvement

December 2016 · Management Systems in Production Engineering

Organisations constantly look for new, innovative solutions and methods which could be used to improve their efficiency and increase the quality of their products. Identifying the causes for returns is an important issue for modern companies, as returns are the cause for the increase in production costs and, most importantly, the loss of credibility in the eyes of the client. Therefore, for the ... [Show full abstract] company to be able to sustain or strengthen its position on the market, it has to follow the rules of quality management. Especially important is the rule of constant improvement. This rule is primarily connected with preventing errors and defects from occurring at all the stages of the production process. To achieve that, one must, among other things, use quality management tools. The article presents an analysis of causes for returns of a vibrating screen produced by a company which manufactures machinery and equipment for the extractive industry, using quality management tools such as the Ishikawa diagram and Pareto analysis. The analysis allowed for the identification of the causes of client returns which could not be previously identified, and proposing solutions for them.

Sampling, Detection and Screening of Chemicals Related to the Chemical Weapons Convention

September 2006

David B. Cooper

The Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC), which entered into force on April 29, 1997, prohibits the development, production, stockpiling and use of chemical weapons (CW). It is administered by the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW), which is based in The Hague. During the course of inspections, whether routine or challenge, there may be a requirement for the inspection team ... [Show full abstract] (IT) to investigate unresolved ambiguities. The IT has the right to request clarification, and if ambiguities cannot be clarified by negotiation then samples may be taken for analysis. Examples of sampling equipment, procedures and sample management techniques are described, together with a brief description of screening and detection. Some analyses may be performed on-site by the inspectors, using equipment they bring with them, but for more difficult questions it may be necessary to remove a sample for analysis on an anonymous basis in two or more of a global network of laboratories “designated” by the OPCW. The end result of any sampling and analysis operation must be able to stand up to international scrutiny, and therefore chain-of-custody or audit-trail procedures must be strictly followed. The process should allow the re-creation of the position or state of the sample at any time during the handling of the sample from cradle to grave.
