Development of a dynamic control strategy for automated window shades

Commercial and multi-unit residential buildings located in cities with high sun exposure often experience challenges regulating indoor temperature due to the uneven distribution of solar radiation and localized overheating. For buildings located in cold climate zones, localized overheating – and in turn, localized indoor cooling – during the winter heating season is often overshadowed by […]

A semantic-based packet forwarding model for SDN

Software designed Networks (SDN), in particular OpenFlow and FORCES, encourage the writing of network protocols and policies as programs with the stated goal to make those programs ever more expressive, more predictable, more evolvable and more usable. Within the OpenFlow initiative, the level of programmability is expressed in a set of policy rules that are […]

Advancing initial state preparation techniques for ground state energy calculation in periodic solids with the quantum phase estimation algorithm

To design and produce better materials for construction and manufacturing, as well as discover new and improved drugs, scientists need to be able to predict properties of molecules or crystalline solids – ideally, before they are made in the lab. At the atomic level, these properties are governed by quantum mechanics, which makes the prediction […]
