Creator:: Marganus, Martin
Abstract:: Energy expenditures, perceived family well being, and energy conservation actions were analyzed by family composition and level of income. Data were from a three state subsample (Arizona, Colorado, and Oregon; N = 2,633) of a larger stratified random sample of households in the Western United States. Data were collected in...
Resource Type:: Dissertation
Full Text:: A market oriented approach to energy conservation

Creator:: Dabbagh, Mehiar
Abstract:: Energy consumption has become a great deal for cloud service providers due to financial as well as environmental concerns. Studies show that cloud servers operate, most of the time, at only between 10% and 50% of their maximal utilizations. These same studies also show that servers that are kept ON...

Full Text:: : Energy-Efficient Resource Management Techniques for Cloud Data Centers Abstract approved: Bechir

Creator:: Merfeld, Michele Kay
Abstract:: A sample of 893 Oregon individuals from a Western Regional Agricultural Experiment Station Project (W-159 "Consequences of Energy Conservation Policies for Western Region Households") was used to analyze consumer attitudes toward potentially restrictive energy conservation regulations. Belief in the seriousness of the energy problem, a psychological measure of internal control...

Full Text:: Potentially Restrictive Energy Conservation Regulations Redacted for privacy Abstract approved /Suzanne B

Creator:: Pourbagheri, Saeed
Abstract:: The design of mobile wireless devices has always focused on reducing power, area, and cost. This dissertation proposes two techniques that are leveraged to save power and area and therefore cost. The first techniques reduces the noise in the receiver and results in a relaxed power requirement. The second technique...

Full Text:: process. The fabricated prototype achieves an energy efficiency of 0.48 nJ/bit with a sensitivity of -82

Creator:: Zhang, Yi
Abstract:: Incremental ADCs (IADCs) have found wide applications in sensor interface circuitry since, compared to ∆Σ ADCs, they provide low-latency high-accuracy conversion and easy multiplexing among multiple channels. On the other hand, continuous-time ∆Σ ADCs (CTDSM) have been receiving more and more attention as a power-efficient solution in targeting medium to...

Creator:: Lajevardi, Babak
Abstract:: Worldwide, many organizations are pursuing higher energy efficiency by reducing power consumption of their processes, systems, and supporting infrastructure. The rapid growth of the information technology (IT) industry and the miniaturization of semiconductors have resulted in substantial increases in energy consumption and power density of IT equipment, and, subsequently, heat...
