In Small Things Discounted: Architecture and World Making. In this talk Arijit Sen discusses the growth of an immigrant fast food store in Berkeley in order to explore how small inconsequential transformations in the material environment, when cumulatively examined, can provide us a window from which to study larger processes framing world makin...

This talk discusses the problem of frequency regulation in islanded ac microgrids with no inertia, i.e., those consisting entirely of generators interfaced through power electronics. The control architecture we propose to achieve this is designed to drive the average frequency error to zero while ensuring that the frequency at every bus is equal...

This talk will present an engineering perspective on 'architecture' in complex engineered systems. The role of protocols and interfaces will be emphasized, along with other architectural concepts such as modularity, evolvability and reusability. Examples of architecture as applied to autonomous vehicles will be used to illustrate modern engineer...

In this talk we examine how high performance computing has changed over the last 10-year and look toward the future in terms of trends. These changes have had and will continue to have a major impact on our software. Some of the software and algorithm challenges have already been encountered, such as management of communication and memory hierar...

RNA architecture results from the hierarchical assembly of preformed double-stranded helices defined by Watson-Crick base pairs and RNA modules maintained by non-Watson-Crick base pairs. Surprisingly, the most common RNA-RNA interaction motif, the A-minor motif, is also the least specific in its local requirements. A-minor motifs are mediated by...
