Energy Efficiency Optimization for Downlink Cloud RAN with Limited Fronthaul Capacity.

ABSTRACT: In the downlink cloud radio access network (C-RAN), fronthaul compression has been developed to combat the performance bottleneck caused by the capacity-limited fronthaul links. Nevertheless, the state-of-arts focusing on fronthaul compression for spectral efficiency improvement become questionable for energy efficiency (EE) maximization, especially for meeting its requirements of large-scale implementation. Therefore, this paper aims to develop a low-complexity algorithm with closed-form solution for the EE maximization problem in a downlink C-RAN with limited fronthaul capacity. To solve such a non-trivial problem, we first derive an optimal solution using branch-and-bound approach to provide a performance benchmark. Then, by transforming the original problem into a parametric subtractive form, we propose a low-complexity two-layer decentralized (TLD) algorithm. Specifically, a bisection search is involved in the outer layer, while in the inner layer we propose an alternating direction method of multipliers algorithm to find a closed-form solution in a parallel manner with convergence guaranteed. Simulations results demonstrate that the TLD algorithm can achieve near optimal solution, and its EE is much higher than the spectral efficiency maximization one. Furthermore, the optimal and TLD algorithms are also extended to counter the channel error. The results show that the robust algorithms can provide robust performance in the case of lacking perfect channel state information.

Optimization of carbon and energy utilization through differential translational efficiency.

Project description:Control of translation is vital to all species. Here we employ a multi-omics approach to decipher condition-dependent translational regulation in the model acetogen Clostridium ljungdahlii. Integration of data from cells grown autotrophically or heterotrophically revealed that pathways critical to carbon and energy metabolism are under strong translational regulation. Major pathways involved in carbon and energy metabolism are not only differentially transcribed and translated, but their translational efficiencies are differentially elevated in response to resource availability under different growth conditions. We show that translational efficiency is not static and that it changes dynamically in response to mRNA expression levels. mRNAs harboring optimized 5'-untranslated region and coding region features, have higher translational efficiencies and are significantly enriched in genes encoding carbon and energy metabolism. In contrast, mRNAs enriched in housekeeping functions harbor sub-optimal features and have lower translational efficiencies. We propose that regulation of translational efficiency is crucial for effectively controlling resource allocation in energy-deprived microorganisms.

On the efficiency of nature-inspired metaheuristics in expensive global optimization with limited budget.

Project description:Global optimization problems where evaluation of the objective function is an expensive operation arise frequently in engineering, decision making, optimal control, etc. There exist two huge but almost completely disjoint communities (they have different journals, different conferences, different test functions, etc.) solving these problems: a broad community of practitioners using stochastic nature-inspired metaheuristics and people from academia studying deterministic mathematical programming methods. In order to bridge the gap between these communities we propose a visual technique for a systematic comparison of global optimization algorithms having different nature. Results of more than 800,000 runs on 800 randomly generated tests show that both stochastic nature-inspired metaheuristics and deterministic global optimization methods are competitive and surpass one another in dependence on the available budget of function evaluations.

Time-varying optimization of COVID-19 vaccine prioritization in the context of limited vaccination capacity.

Project description:Dynamically adapting the allocation of COVID-19 vaccines to the evolving epidemiological situation could be key to reduce COVID-19 burden. Here we developed a data-driven mechanistic model of SARS-CoV-2 transmission to explore optimal vaccine prioritization strategies in China. We found that a time-varying vaccination program (i.e., allocating vaccines to different target groups as the epidemic evolves) can be highly beneficial as it is capable of simultaneously achieving different objectives (e.g., minimizing the number of deaths and of infections). Our findings suggest that boosting the vaccination capacity up to 2.5 million first doses per day (0.17% rollout speed) or higher could greatly reduce COVID-19 burden, should a new wave start to unfold in China with reproduction number ≤1.5. The highest priority categories are consistent under a broad range of assumptions. Finally, a high vaccination capacity in the early phase of the vaccination campaign is key to achieve large gains of strategic prioritizations.

Ethyl lactate production by reactive distillation - optimization of reaction kinetics and energy efficiency.

Project description:Background: Ethyl lactate is an environmentally benign solvent, which could substitute petrol-based volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in many applications if production costs are reduced. It is usually produced by the esterification of lactic acid with ethanol - two important chemical building blocks of biorefineries that are available at industrial scale. Reactive distillation is a promising alternative production process, which utilises process intensification to increase energy efficiency and space-time yield by enhancing the reaction kinetics. Methods: In this work, process intensification of ethyl lactate production by means of distillation was analysed with special focus on the efficient separation of water. Different setups were evaluated. The feedstock requirements were studied and the process was optimized regarding reaction kinetics in experiments on laboratory level. The preparation of anhydrous starting mixtures for ethyl lactate formation was tested in batch experiments and applied to reactive distillation. The simultaneous distillation was optimized and assessed for its energy efficiency. For this purpose, integrated reactive distillation was compared to a simple setup for distillation enhanced esterification. Results: It was found that an optimized serial setup of reactors and distillation steps can offer similar process intensification at a lower distillate rate compared to simultaneous reactive distillation and is therefore more energy efficient. Moreover, the serial setup is more flexible and straight-forward to regulate and scale-up. Conclusions: Based on the experimental results, the optimal setup and parameters of a continuous process for ethyl lactate production by distillation enhanced esterification was presented.

Optimization of energy efficiency and COVID-19 pandemic control in different indoor environments.

Project description:The COVID-19 pandemic has led to considerable morbidity and mortality, and consumed enormous resources (e.g. energy) to control and prevent the disease. It is crucial to balance infection risk and energy consumption when reducing the spread of infection. In this study, a quantitative human, behavior-based, infection risk-energy consumption model for different indoor environments was developed. An optimal balance point for each indoor environment can be obtained using the anti-problem method. For this study we selected Wangjing Block, one of the most densely populated places in Beijing, as an example. Under the current ventilation standard (30 m3/h/person), prevention and control of the COVID-19 pandemic would be insufficient because the basic reproduction number (R0 ) for students, workers and elders are greater than 1. The optimal required fresh air ventilation rates in most indoor environments are near or below 60 m3/h/person, after considering the combined effects of multiple mitigation measures. In residences, sports buildings and restaurants, the demand for fresh air ventilation rate is relatively high. After our global optimization of infection risk control (R0 ≤ 1), energy consumption can be reduced by 13.7% and 45.1% on weekdays and weekends, respectively, in contrast to a strategy of strict control (R0 = 1 for each indoor environment).

Tetramethylpyrazine: an electrolyte additive for high capacity and energy efficiency lithium-oxygen batteries.

Project description:Lithium-oxygen batteries have attracted great attention in recent years owing to their extremely high theoretical energy density, however, factors such as low actual capacity and poor rate performance hinder the practical application of lithium-oxygen batteries. In this work, a novel electrolyte additive, tetramethylpyrazine (TMP), is introduced into an electrolyte system to enhance the electrochemical performance of the lithium-oxygen batteries. TMP does not undergo its own redox reaction within the charge-discharge voltage range, which will not affect the electrochemical stability of the electrolyte. The results show that the addition of TMP can increase the reduction current of oxygen, which will promote the ORR process, and with an optimal TMP content (50 mM), the cell shows a high discharge capacity of 5712.3 mA h g-1 at 0.1 mA cm-2. And its rate capability is almost doubled compared with the system without TMP additive at a large current density of 1 mA cm-2. Further analysis by SEM and XRD reveals that the addition of TMP can reduce the formation of by-products and promote the solution growth of large-size Li2O2 particles to achieve a large discharge capacity. This approach could provide a new idea for improving the electrochemical performance of lithium-oxygen batteries.

A Prader-Willi locus lncRNA cloud modulates diurnal genes and energy expenditure.

Project description:Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS), a genetic cause of childhood obesity, is characterized by intellectual disabilities and sleep abnormalities. PWS-causing deletions include a neuronal long, non-coding RNA (lncRNA) processed into small nucleolar RNAs and a spliced lncRNA,116HG. We show that 116HG forms a subnuclear RNA cloud that co-purifies with the transcriptional activator RBBP5 and active metabolic genes, remains tethered to the site of its transcription and increases in size in postnatal neurons. Snord116del mice lacking 116HG exhibited increased energy expenditure corresponding to dysregulation of diurnally expressed Mtor and circadian genes Clock, Cry1, and Per2. Genomic and metabolic analyses demonstrate altered diurnal energy regulation in the Snord116del mouse cortex and link the loss of 116HG to the energy imbalance observed in PWS. Examination of lncRNA binding sites by ChIRP-seq using an oligo-based purification method from WT and Snord116del (+/-) mouse brain with specific and nonspecific control oligos. Transcript abundance levels by RNA-seq analysis of 3 adult WT and 2 adult Snord116del (+/-) mouse brain cortices at Zt+6 and 2 adult WT and 2 adult Snord116del (+/-) mouse brain cortices at Zt+16.

3D printed Mg-NiTi interpenetrating-phase composites with high strength, damping capacity, and energy absorption efficiency.

Project description:It is of significance, but still remains a key challenge, to simultaneously enhance the strength and damping capacities in metals, as these two properties are often mutually exclusive. Here, we provide a multidesign strategy for defeating such a conflict by developing a Mg-NiTi composite with a bicontinuous interpenetrating-phase architecture through infiltration of magnesium melt into three-dimensionally printed Nitinol scaffold. The composite exhibits a unique combination of mechanical properties with improved strengths at ambient to elevated temperatures, remarkable damage tolerance, good damping capacities at differing amplitudes, and exceptional energy absorption efficiency, which is unprecedented for magnesium materials. The shape and strength after deformation can even be largely recovered by heat treatment. This study offers a new perspective for the structural and biomedical applications of magnesium.

Asynchronous parallel Bayesian optimization for AI-driven cloud laboratories.

Project description:MotivationThe recent emergence of cloud laboratories-collections of automated wet-lab instruments that are accessed remotely, presents new opportunities to apply Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in scientific research. Among these is the challenge of automating the process of optimizing experimental protocols to maximize data quality.ResultsWe introduce a new deterministic algorithm, called PaRallel OptimizaTiOn for ClOud Laboratories (PROTOCOL), that improves experimental protocols via asynchronous, parallel Bayesian optimization. The algorithm achieves exponential convergence with respect to simple regret. We demonstrate PROTOCOL in both simulated and real-world cloud labs. In the simulated lab, it outperforms alternative approaches to Bayesian optimization in terms of its ability to find optimal configurations, and the number of experiments required to find the optimum. In the real-world lab, the algorithm makes progress toward the optimal setting.Data availability and implementationPROTOCOL is available as both a stand-alone Python library, and as part of a R Shiny application at https://github.com/clangmead/PROTOCOL. Data are available at the same repository.Supplementary informationSupplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.
