Source of energy used to produce synthetic fuels is renewable energy
Abstract: The search for the next major energy solution is undoubtedly underway as oil and fossil fuel resources are depleting globally. It is possible that there won’t be a perfect energy that is always available and does not destroy the environment, nor will there be a panacea to the world’s energy problems. When opposed to traditional oil-based fossil fuels, synthetic fuels, also known as synfuels, provide both benefits and cons. All …

Evolutionary Optimization in MPS: A Brief Review
Abstract: Master production scheduling (MPS) is a combinatorial optimization problem that arises frequently in real-life applications. Because of the complexity and the vast search space, conventional optimization methods such as mathematical programming, dynamic programming and branch-and-bound technique are computationally infeasible. Evolutionary approach-based meta-heuristics have gained prominence in recent years for solving multi-objective optimization problems (MOP). Multi-objective evolutionary approaches (MOEAs) have substantial success across a variety of real-world engineering applications. The present …

Automated Access Backdoor for UVM_REG Layer
Abstract: Systems on chips (SoCs) design have many configuration registers. Configuring the registers through a Bus protocol consumes lot of simulation time. Hence, time saving becomes a challenge in configuring the registers. The other way to configure registers is backdoor access. Backdoor is a zero simulation time access by mapping to the register directly using the hierarchical path. It allows rapid configuration of registers and can uncover hidden bugs as execution …

Hydro-political Interactions: India-Nepal-Bangladesh
Abstract: Rivers are the only naturally occurring resource on land that threads nations though it also divides them bitterly. It’s the “preciousness' of freshwater that makes it’s “possession” an indicator of power and justifies it being a strategic commodity. Indeed, "Water in a Changing World", will assume greater salience and as it does, the drivers impacting water resources, whether climate variability and security issues or electricity-generation and migration, will need to …
