Evaluating complex systems is the subject of this paper, the third in a series investigating prototyping. It provides an interesting and helpful overview of how to evaluate systems prototypes and outlines the iterative stream of developer-user interactions that is replacing older approaches to testing and evaluating new military systems, which promise to reduce the time required to develop and field future military capabilities. Changes to the acquisition process, such as those the paper sketches, will facilitate the nation's rapid transit through its current revolution in military affairs.

This paper presents a new switching control scheme for static var compensator (SVC) using fuzzy logic control rules to enhance the overall stability of electric power systems. In addition, the coordination with power system stabilizers (PSS) is also considered to achieve a wider stable region. An SVC is set on one of the busbars in the transmission system, where the real power flow signal is utilized at the location of the SVC to determine the firing angle of the thyristor switch. The switching control scheme is simple so as not to require heavy computation on the microcomputer based switching controller. The PSSs are also set on the generators in the study system. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed fuzzy logic switching control scheme for the SVC. The coordination between SVC and PSS is also effective to enlarge the stable region.

Broadband ISDN (integrated services digital network) should provide various kinds of communication services for multimedia traffic, including voice, computer data, still picture and motion video, and an ATM (asynchronous transfer mode) technology is expected to satisfy those demands. In ATM networks, a VP (virtual path) concept is introduced for simplifying the network resource management. However, if the bandwidth of each VP is fixed, it cannot absorb traffic load fluctuation. In this case, it is likely to happen that one VP has no remaining bandwidth while other VPs on the same physical link have free capacities. Another extremity is that a VP is not introduced, and that all VCs along the same physical link share the whole bandwidth of the link. This can achieve an efficient use of the link, but it apparently requires complicated call set-up procedures. In this paper, we propose a new dynamic VP bandwidth control method, in which the bandwidth allocated to each VP is dynamically changed according to traffic fluctuation. More specifically, in the case that multiple VPs are multiplexed on the same link between two nodes, when the utilization of some VP is increased, that VP requests an additional bandwidth. When the traffic load becomes low and the utilization of a VP is decreased, a part of the assigned bandwidth is released. We consider two methods for this purpose;one is the basic method in which the bandwidth increase request is issued after the VP bandwidth is exhausted. The other is the look-ahead method where the bandwidth increase is requested in advance before the bandwidth starvation. An approximate analysis for the above methods is provided, and the validation of its accuracy is assessed by comparing with simulation results. Through numerical examples, we show that our methods can provide performance improvement in terms of call loss probabilities of each VP.

In today's techno world,teachers worldwide can learn the world-famous masterclasses and access all sorts of courses for school teachers. Learners have more learning opportunities based on the excellent sharing of resources. Technical support is provided in developing the Fuzzy Integrated Cloud Computing Framework (FICCF) to develop Online Courses. This paper explores the educational capabilities of cloud computing, the real-time contact between teachers and students, studying, and heterogeneous terminal access to track evaluation-based fuzzy variables. It addresses the benefits of open-ended modes, creating an English course design system in a cloud-based environment, modifying lecture mode, and reforming the English course design mode. The experimental result shows that the proposed cloud computing framework has better efficiency in developing and promoting English online *** self-learning systems make it possible to provide the best possible learning environment. It ensures that sensitive data generated by an application is deleted, and this feature ensures accuracy.
