Polarization and charge transfer in classical molecular dynamics
1) Polarization and charge transfer are important effects usually neglected in classical molecular dynamics simulations.
2) The document presents a new charge transfer model, QTPIE, that corrects deficiencies in existing fluctuating charge models while maintaining similar computational cost.
3) Simulations of linear water chains using QTPIE demonstrate quantitative polarization trends and qualitative charge transfer trends that agree with ab initio results, showing an improvement over existing models.

This document describes fluctuating charge models that represent molecules as electrical circuits with atomic charges that fluctuate. It introduces the QTPIE model, which improves upon previous models like QEq by including an overlap integral that introduces an explicit notion of distance, allowing it to better describe charge transfer and polarization. The QTPIE model is shown to predict correct dissociation behavior and charge distributions compared to ab initio results.
Constructing a rigorous fluctuating-charge model for molecular mechanics
The document describes a new fluctuating charge model called QTPIE (charge transfer with polarization current equilibration) that aims to improve upon existing fluctuating charge models. QTPIE focuses on charge transfer variables that account for where charge came from and where it is going. This allows QTPIE to explicitly penalize long-distance charge transfer and better describe polarization and charge transfer. Tests on water fragments show QTPIE gives more accurate asymptotic charges compared to existing models like QEq and produces parameters that are transferable across different geometries.
Dynamical localization in the microwave ionization of Rydberg atoms
1) Rydberg atoms are highly-excited atoms with loosely bound outer electrons that behave classically and are sensitive to microwave radiation.
2) The ionization of Rydberg atoms by microwaves shows a phenomenon called dynamical localization, where ionization is suppressed at certain frequencies due to quantum interference effects.
3) Calculations show that while hydrogen Rydberg atoms can be well described classically, alkali atoms exhibit different ionization behavior due to electron correlations within the atom core.
Resolving the dissociation catastrophe in fluctuating-charge models
The document discusses issues that arise when using fluctuating charge models to describe chemical systems. It summarizes the concept of fluctuating charges based on electronegativity equalization. However, this leads to an unphysical "dissociation catastrophe" where charges do not decay to zero at infinite separation. The document proposes fixing this by introducing distance-dependent electronegativity or charge transfer variables between atoms to attenuate long-range charge transfer. It also discusses the topological relationship between charge transfer variables and atomic charges to convert between representations.

QTPIE: A new charge model for arbitrary geometries and systems
1) QTPIE is a new charge model that accounts for polarization effects in molecular dynamics simulations through charge transfer and polarization-dependent interactions.
2) When implemented in the TIP3P water model (TIP3P/QTPIE), it correctly describes the dissociation of water molecules and predicts dipole moments in water chains better than previous charge equilibration methods.
3) However, TIP3P/QTPIE does not accurately capture polarizability, as it does not include out-of-plane polarizability and underestimates in-plane components.

Excitation Energy Transfer In Photosynthetic Membranes
This document summarizes research on excitation energy transfer in the light harvesting complex II (LHC-II) found in plants. It discusses how LHC-II is able to efficiently funnel light energy absorbed by chlorophyll pigments to the reaction center in picoseconds using two mechanisms: Dexter electron exchange and Förster dipole-dipole interactions. Computational modeling of LHC-II's atomic coordinates and transition dipole strengths shows that the strongest couplings between chlorophylls lead to the fastest energy transfer rates, with an overall light harvesting efficiency of 98.7% and a mean passage time of 13.52 picoseconds for excitons to travel between pigments.

Final
This document describes a theoretical study of graphene membrane rupture under strong electric fields using molecular dynamics simulations. The study examined pristine and defective graphene membranes of various sizes under electric fields of varying strengths, both with and without ion bombardment, to determine the cause of experimental membrane ruptures. The simulations found that electric fields alone did not rupture membranes. Ion bombardment was shown to be able to rupture membranes if ions possessed kinetic energies of approximately 0.7 electronvolts upon impact. Sequential ion bombardment, mimicking experimental conditions, was also found to potentially rupture membranes through accumulated damage.

In the conventional MMC, two arm inductors are placed in each phase to limit the circulating current. In the proposed topology, the inductors are replaced by a transformer. The proposed circuit gives a 50% reduction of the voltage rating of the power devices and the capacitors in comparison with the conventional MMC. The required dc-link voltage which is fed directly by PV panels is also reduced by half. The paper presents a PWM method to control the solar inverter output voltage. The proposed concept is confirmed through simulation and experimental results.

Energy management and control strategy of photovoltaic battery hybrid distrib...
Photovoltaic (PV)/battery hybrid power units have attracted vast research interests in recent years. For the conventional distributed power generation systems with PV/battery hybrid power units, two independent power converters, including a unidirectional dc_dc converter and a bidirectional converter, are normally required. This paper proposes an energy management and control strategy for the PV/battery hybrid distributed power generation systems with only one integrated three-port power converter. As the integrated bidirectional converter shares power switches with the full-bridge dc_dc converter, the power density and the reliability of the system is enhanced. The corresponding energy management and control strategy are proposed to realize the power balance among three ports in different operating scenarios, which comprehensively takes both the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) benefit and the battery charging/discharging management into consideration. The simulations are conducted using the Matlab/Simulink software to verify the operation performance of the proposed PV/battery hybrid distributed power generation system with the corresponding control algorithms, where the MPPT control loop, the battery charging/discharging management loop are enabled accordingly in different operating scenarios.
Ieee xplore full text pdf 44
This document analyzes a unified output MPPT control strategy for a subpanel PV converter system (SPMC) to address real-world mismatch issues in photovoltaic systems. The SPMC system connects a dedicated MPPT converter to each PV cell string in a panel. This allows each string to operate at its individual maximum power point regardless of mismatch conditions. However, implementing independent MPPT control for each string increases costs. Therefore, the document proposes a unified output MPPT control structure that reduces costs by saving on analog-to-digital units, current sensors, and MPPT controllers while still allowing each SPMC to operate at its optimal maximum power point. Simulation and experimental results confirm the effectiveness of this unified output control approach.

The document outlines a study on applying intelligent control systems for maximum power point tracking of photovoltaic power systems under partial shading conditions. It discusses modeling the PV system and designing an MPPT controller using fuzzy logic control. The methodology involves developing a fuzzy logic algorithm, simulating the system in MATLAB/Simulink, and comparing results to classical MPPT methods. Simulation results show the fuzzy logic controller tracks the global MPP more accurately than the incremental conductance method under different shading patterns and environmental conditions.

This document discusses maximum power point tracking (MPPT) for photovoltaic (PV) arrays. It outlines the components of a PV array system and factors that affect the arrays' power output such as temperature, irradiance, and shading. The document then presents a mathematical model of a PV array developed in Simulink and shows how changing temperatures and irradiances affect the power curve. It introduces MPPT and two common MPPT algorithms, perturb and observe (P&O) and incremental conductance, developed and compared in Simulink. An experimental setup is described and results show the P&O oscillates more while incremental conductance finds the maximum power point more precisely.

A simplified phase shift pwm-based feedforward distributed mppt method for gr...
The modularity and decreased filter size properties have made cascaded multilevel inverters (MLIs) more applicable than conventional two-level inverters, especially in high and medium power photovoltaic (PV) applications. However, partial shading of PV modules will affect negatively the output power of the unshaded modules. There are several existing solutions in the literature to address this challenge, however almost all of them suffer from complex implementations, low efficiency, and high cost. This paper presents a new simplified feedforward distributed maximum power point tracking (MPPT) method for three-phase grid-connected cascaded MLIs. The cascaded MLI provides a modular, and highly efficient single stage power conversion for PV systems. The proposed distributed MPPT method is depending on the phase-shift pulse width modulation (PSPWM) method with a simplified implementation. The proposed method is developing a feedforward signal that is proportional to the maximum power of the individual module. Then, the current controller, and the modulating signal are multiplied with the proportionality factor of the module maximum power. Furthermore, a modified modulation compensation method without using proportional-integral (PI) controllers is introduced to solve the problem of the unbalanced three-phase PV output currents that results from PV power mismatches and shading. A case study is implemented for 15 kW PV system to investigate the performance of the proposed method. In addition, comprehensive comparisons with the previous attempts in the literature are provided to verify the superior performance of the new proposed control method.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

High performance Serverless Java on AWS- GoTo Amsterdam 2024
Java is for many years one of the most popular programming languages, but it used to have hard times in the Serverless community. Java is known for its high cold start times and high memory footprint, comparing to other programming languages like Node.js and Python. In this talk I'll look at the general best practices and techniques we can use to decrease memory consumption, cold start times for Java Serverless development on AWS including GraalVM (Native Image) and AWS own offering SnapStart based on Firecracker microVM snapshot and restore and CRaC (Coordinated Restore at Checkpoint) runtime hooks. I'll also provide a lot of benchmarking on Lambda functions trying out various deployment package sizes, Lambda memory settings, Java compilation options and HTTP (a)synchronous clients and measure their impact on cold and warm start times.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

In response to the urgency and scale required to effectively address climate change, open source solutions offer significant potential for driving innovation and progress. Currently, there is a growing demand for standardization and interoperability in energy data and modeling. Open source standards and specifications within the energy sector can also alleviate challenges associated with data fragmentation, transparency, and accessibility. At the same time, it is crucial to consider privacy and security concerns throughout the development of open source platforms.
This webinar will delve into the motivations behind establishing LF Energy’s Carbon Data Specification Consortium. It will provide an overview of the draft specifications and the ongoing progress made by the respective working groups.
Three primary specifications will be discussed:
-Discovery and client registration, emphasizing transparent processes and secure and private access
-Customer data, centering around customer tariffs, bills, energy usage, and full consumption disclosure
-Power systems data, focusing on grid data, inclusive of transmission and distribution networks, generation, intergrid power flows, and market settlement data

Mutation Testing for Task-Oriented Chatbots
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.
GNSS spoofing via SDR (Criptored Talks 2024)
In the realm of cybersecurity, offensive security practices act as a critical shield. By simulating real-world attacks in a controlled environment, these techniques expose vulnerabilities before malicious actors can exploit them. This proactive approach allows manufacturers to identify and fix weaknesses, significantly enhancing system security.
This presentation delves into the development of a system designed to mimic Galileo's Open Service signal using software-defined radio (SDR) technology. We'll begin with a foundational overview of both Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and the intricacies of digital signal processing.
The presentation culminates in a live demonstration. We'll showcase the manipulation of Galileo's Open Service pilot signal, simulating an attack on various software and hardware systems. This practical demonstration serves to highlight the potential consequences of unaddressed vulnerabilities, emphasizing the importance of offensive security practices in safeguarding critical infrastructure.
