Power–Packet Conversion Methods and Analysis of Scheduling Schemes for Wireless Power Transfer by Yuma Takahashi, Takefumi Hiraguri, Kazuki Maruta, Shuma Okita, Takahiro Matsuda, Tomotaka Kimura, Noboru Sekino

“…These evaluations were conducted using a proposed power–packet conversion method that discretizes continuous power into packet units, allowing for the application of communication network-inspired scheduling and control techniques. The capacity to construct such models enables the simulator to analyze the flow and distribution of power, predict potential issues that may arise in real systems in advance, and devise optimal control methodologies. …”

A new temporal locality-based workload prediction approach for SaaS services in a cloud environment by Wiem Matoussi, Tarek Hamrouni

“…The method will be implemented in order to simultaneously achieve a twofold benefit: obtain precise forecast results while optimizing response time. In this regard, we have chosen to control the computation time by dynamizing the size of the sliding window associated to the recent history to be analyzed, since the larger the size of the entry in the prediction model, the more the algorithmic complexity increases. …”
