Abstract: Latest technological development in VLSI design permits more functions integrated in a single chip. Multipliers are crucially important building structures for advanced computing and as a part of digital processing system. These logic and arithmetic structures should have to be speedy as well as precise enough so that number of such circuits can be integrated along a single chip. Considering this there is advancement in IC fabrication and design is still going on. In VLSI circuit area, power and delay are the parameters which are considered as design parameters. However, there exists a trade-off amongst them for an optimal design. Multipliers have very crucial and important part in designing of microprocessors, multimedia system and digital signal processors etc. Almost 15% of total IC power is consumed by multiplication unit alone. So it becomes very important to have a well organized design in terms of performance, area and its processing speed of multipliers and same as for Booth multiplication algorithm which gives a fundamental platform for such improvements in the designing of high speed multipliers with great performance.
Booth algorithm gives such an efficient encoding scheme of the bits through first steps of the multiplication process. This work is based on configurable logic for 16-bit Booth multiplier using Radix-2 and Radix-4 Method. Booth multiplier can be configured to perform multiplication on 16-bit operands. The multiplier will identify the range of the operands during configuration register. The configuration register can be configured through input ports. The multiplier has been synthesized using Xilinx 14.5 and in this simulation we have achieve minimum combinational delay. Modelsim is used for the simulation part in this work.

With the release of Esri's new ArcGIS Pipeline Referencing (APR) tools in 2017, we got to work immediately deploying the new extensions for our clients. This presentation will focus on SCANA Energy's APR implementation and lessons learned throughout the deployment. Topics will range from source data preparation, UPDM extensions, APR architecture, installation, licensing, APR core data loading and end user data editing workflows.
The new Esri Utility Network was released into beta earlier this year. SSP has worked with many utility customers to extensively test the new network including data migration, creating circuits & systems, editing data, and utility tracing. Join SSP and Intermountain REA to review how the testing has gone, what works well, and what needs improvement in the new Utility Network. We will also cover key aspects of the new network that will affect your utility so you can be prepared for your move to the Utility Network!
UPDM & APR Implementation for Gas TransmissionSSP Innovations
With the release of Esri's ArcGIS Pipeline Referencing (APR) in early 2017, Memphis Light, Gas & Water (MLGW) identified the extensions as desirable tools to manage their gas transmission assets. The key driver for MLGW was the ability to utilize software within the Esri stack for editing linear referenced pipelines, viewing and reporting. This presentation will focus on MLGW’s APR implementation and include elements around the hardware/software architecture, Utility Pipeline Data Model, data migration across multiple sources, implementation of the Esri software and creation of a viewing/reporting application within Web App Builder.
In 2015, CoServ made the determination to migrate all asset data management into IBM Maximo. We opted to leverage ArcGIS for Server as our main integration point between Maximo and GIS. By hosting our utility infrastructure data in feature services, we allowed Maximo to view spatially enabled information for visualization within its own environment. Additionally, Maximo updates feature classes and their related tables based upon changes made in Maximo seamlessly through the services. By leveraging Global IDs and GUIDs as the direct linkage between Maximo assets and GIS features, CoServ is now able to ingest Maximo assets directly into the GIS environment. This presented GIS end users access to asset related information in their native environment. The migration has been a highly successful implementation. It has alleviated the strain on GIS to manage and maintain asset related information while still providing a way for GIS to access it. This solution has provided a stable integration between the two environments with minimal customizations. By thinking a bit out of the box, CoServ was able to create a unique integration that solved all of our problems.
The Utility Network is the on the horizon. Duane Holt from Intermountain Rural Electric Association (IREA) has had a chance to use the beta of the Utility Network. He will share his experience and give his positives and negatives of this new technology. John Coleman from SSP Innovations, an Esri partner, will demonstrate the tools they have been building to answer the questions and concerns IREA and other utilities have about the Utility Network. This will include a few demonstrations covering each of the topics that IREA experienced during the Utility Network jumpstart.
MTEMC’s State 0 Changes with 1700+ Versions IntactSSP Innovations
MTEMC recently completed a major project to merge multiple geodatabases into a single new GDB, apply data model changes along with corresponding data migration, and to implement voltage levels with feeder manager 2.0 to provide connectivity upstream of a circuit breaker. Several of these changes required the geodatabase to be at state 0 (no versions). MTEMC utilized SSP Innovations' All Edits State 0 technology to successfully complete this project while maintaining their 1700+ design versions.
Maximizing ROI on Utility Work Management SystemsSSP Innovations
Utility IT Departments must carefully assess several factors when searching for and acquiring new enterprise systems that ultimately affect the overall success or failure of the system. This presentation will review important high value considerations of Work Management Systems at utility organizations. Considerations such as implementation personnel expertise, extensibility, configurability, support, and system data models all play a role in the end cost of a system. Each of these factors and more will be examined in light of examples provided by SSP’s Work Management System, WFM aka Workforce Management.
Connexus Energy needed to find a new way to report outages to their Responder™ OMS beyond traditional IVR. With a combination of web portal, middleware and a Multispeak-based web service, customers can now log into the portal and report outages. This allows Connexus to handle more outage calls by alleviating the restriction on the number of phone lines required, and reduces the time it takes to report an outage. Learn more about the technologies used and the outcome in this informative session.
CoServ has been using ArcGIS/ArcFM/Designer™ successfully for over 10 years. As part of a recent Maximo/GIS integration effort, CoServ has reviewed its business workflows with SSP. In particular, and within GIS, CoServ’s designs life cycles have been altered to include: Pre-Posting to DEFAULT, and removal from SDE of the Esri version as soon as the design is in construction. As well as Partial Energization as a means to gradually post portions of as-built network into DEFAULT.
The most important benefits from introducing these steps are: A.- Early availability to the whole company of GIS data regarding designs under construction. B.- Network energization status (and other details) monitored during the construction phases of a design. C.- Minimizing the number of active versions in the SDE state tree. The first two benefits improve overall company-wide business, by having early and timely knowledge of the projects being constructed in the field, overlaid on the current distribution network. While minimizing the versions dramatically improves the GDB performance and efficiency.
Rule-Driven, Fully-Configurable Asset Tracking with GISSSP Innovations
For the last seven years MLGW has successfully implemented GIS using ArcGIS/ArcFM ™. The GIS serves as an enterprise backbone for a variety of business applications where utility assets play a crucial role: Inspection, Maintenance, New Construction, OMS, among others.To support the life cycle of MLGW’s assets, SSP has implemented a rule-driven and fully-configurable asset tracking mechanism built into the GIS. Rules specified by different business units determine: What network elements are to be tracked as assets. What attributes of those assets are to be monitored. How and when these attributes may change.
CoServ has been preparing for the future by adding several connections to their OMS. These connections have evolved over the years and now include: SCADA-initiated device status, outage creation and status through IVR, and web-based outage tools for reporting and status. This session will cover the evolution and future plans for utlizing the information from OMS and the business value the existing tools have made for CoServ and their customers.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

15. Fiber Manager – It’s Physical
Connection Manager allows you to connect fiber, microwave, etc. to
a physical port on a device on each end
No internal connectivity between device ports within a device
Circuit Manager allows you to create a named physical path from
device to device
Does a good job in tracking physical assets and connectivity
16. Track master/header circuits that traverse through devices
Custom Trace Linking Multiple Fiber Manager Physical Circuits

Establish bandwidth between end points
Systems / Master Circuits
21. Creating Master Circuits
Select the starting port
which initiates an
outbound trace on the
connected line.
At the site on the other end of the trace, review
the inbound port and select an outbound port if
available/required.
24. Bandwidth Hierarchy
Define a bandwidth hierarchy for each master circuit up
to an OC-192 (10 Gb/s)
Allocate logical trunk circuits
(reserved bandwidth, ex. a full STS-1 or DS1)
Provision logical tributary circuits
(committed bandwidth) down to a DS0

29. Provisioning a Logical Circuit
Provisioning is initiated from
the Tri-State toolbar.
Define the properties of the
logical circuit.
Choose the start and end sites.
30. Provisioning a Logical Circuit
Any eligible paths are shown. Selecting a path
shows the systems that are crossed.
31. Provisioning a Logical Circuit
For any systems included in
the path, the user must
provision the timeslot of each
logical circuit.
Here the user chooses:
The 8th DS0
in the 3rd VT
in the 1st STS
of the TSGT-C OC-3
32. Provisioning a Logical Circuit
When some circuits are
provisioned, the color
changes to orange.
When all circuits are
provisioned for the system,
the color changes to green.
Repeat for each system
crossed within the path.
The save button is then
activated.
33. Technical Benefits
What can we do with this level of detailed data?
Recommend circuit provisioning based on available timeslots
Track allocated bandwidth vs. capacity at all points on network
Create a GIS heat map showing bottlenecks
Drive capital planning for network expansion
Poke the network at any point to see:
Hierarchy of the master circuit(s)
Which logical circuits are present
The use of each logical circuit (down to the DS0)
Result is a scalable system
35. Bandwidth vs. Capacity
The map zooms to the extent of the system, which is shown here in green. Note that:
< 50% the system will be displayed in green
50% to 75%, the system will be displayed in yellow
75% to 90%, the system will be displayed in orange
> 90%, the system will be displayed in red
37. Business Justifications
Current system is not supported by Vendors
No significant system upgrades over last 20 years
Key personnel are nearing retirement gone!
Growing number and complexity of assets
$100M in Capital project over next 5 years
Need for spatial analysis of assets
Inefficient circuit design and fiber tracking process
38. Business Benefits
Reduces time required to manage circuit/fiber
design and installation
Replaces existing unsupported system with a
GIS based platform
Consolidates several systems into one platform
(CSMgmt, Telecom Room Database, AutoCAD drawings, Excel
Spreadsheets, etc.)
Standardizes work flow and processes
39. Business Benefits

paper documentation
Reduce time to troubleshoot and locate outages
Greater data integrity and access for field mtnce
Provide enhanced reporting functions
Track 3rd Party usage of the telecom network
Provides opportunity to roll to Linux
Abstract:
Those that have implemented Fiber Manager understand that the product focuses on managing the physical infrastructure of your telecom network including fiber optic, microwave, copper, and various other communication mediums. However, many customers have long been interested in managing the logical network in addition to the physical infrastructure. And this means managing bandwidth allocation to the various users, systems, services, or customers whose traffic traverses your physical facilities. Join us for this session as we explore how Tri-State G&T is working to customize Fiber Manager to include the provisioning of their logical circuits from an OC-192 all the way down to a DS0 with everything in between. The future of Fiber Manager may be closer than you think!

I like this slide, definitely focus in on the number of circuits that Tri-State tracks all the way down to the DS0 level. Point out that this is just one example – LOTS o’ data.
Jonathan…
Talk to the current system – hard to understand by anyone but engineers, no GIS component, and LOTS of accumulated data
Jonathan…
Explain the basic goals of the project, I included the third bullet (you can certainly change it) to show the goals of replacing CSMGMT.

– I think this would be a compelling topic to talk about. Explain how you originally were just going after a GIS tool to manage the fiber for your job and then talk about how leadership challenged you to find a solution to also replace CSMGMT which was a whole other can ‘o worms.

Managing your fiber in a geospatial system allows you to create maps of your infrastructure, perform spatial analysis, and answer questions that could not otherwise be answered. Esri ArcGIS is the worldwide leader in GIS and specifically within utilities. Describe the mapping platform based on the understanding in the room…
Skye…
Fiber Manager is an extension on top of the Esri ArcGIS platform that allows the map to manage telecom connected assets. Instead of just showing the lines and points on a map, this tool digs into the physical connectivity to allow you to specify connections at the port, splice, fiber, or frequency level across your assets. This is an example of the Connection Manager which is showing a splice between two fibers. The same tool is used to connect all the other types of telecom assets via configuration.
Skye…
Once the telecom connectivity is built into the GIS the product allows you to do network analysis and tracing. Connection management was shown on the previous slide. Once connections are established, end to end fiber connectivity traces can be performed. These dedicated physical paths can be used to created named circuits. And we can then conduct OTDR tracing and other analysis based on that connectivity.
Skye…
I will talk to the physical nature of fiber manager and why it matters in this discussion.

Talk about the custom data model. The F_Circuit is the product physical circuit. The other objects are custom objects that traverse into the logical provisioning world. This is best captured via an example. Take the case where we have 6 patch locations (or sites) labeled A thru F. In Fiber Manager we establish physical circuits between each of these patch locations – device to device (A to B, B to C, etc.). Next we create master circuits which can also be called systems. System #1 will be from A to C and System #2 will be from C to F. Each system shares the same bandwidth and the same designator/timeslot hierarchy. Now we want to create a logical circuit from B to E which crosses the two systems. (Reference the model.) This logical circuit traverses multiple systems and within each system it is assigned a specific timeslot. That reservation with the system may only use a subset of the physical circuits. In system #1 is only uses B to C and in System #2 it only uses C to D and D to E. It does NOT use A to B or E to F.
To demonstrate the opposite direction we can show a second logical circuit. And now we can easily see that any given physical circuit such as B to C can be part of different timeslots which are being used by differing logical circuits. So in summary, one physcial circuit can host many different logical circuits AND one logical circuit can traverse many different physical circuits.
