This paper presents a modeling of photovoltaic (PV) module in PSCAD/EMTDC and design of maximum power point tracking (MPPT) using boost converter. The model can be used for simulation studies of grid interface applications using voltage source conver... Read More about Modeling and design of MPPT controller for a PV module using PSCAD/EMTDC.

A novel agent-based simulation framework for sensing in complex adaptive environments (2010)
Journal Article
Niazi, M., & Hussain, A. (2011). A novel agent-based simulation framework for sensing in complex adaptive environments. IEEE Sensors Journal, 11(2), 404-412. https://doi.org/10.1109/JSEN.2010.2068044

In this paper, we present a novel formal agent-based simulation framework (FABS). FABS uses formal specification as a means of clear description of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) sensing a complex adaptive environment. This specification model is th...

Verification & validation of an agent-based forest fire simulation model (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Niazi, M. A., Siddique, Q., Hussain, A., & Kolberg, M. (2010, April). Verification & validation of an agent-based forest fire simulation model. Presented at SpringSim '10 - Spring Simulation Multiconference, Orlando, Florida

In this paper, we present the verification and validation of an agent-based model of forest fires. We use a combination of a Virtual Overlay Multi-Agent System (VOMAS) validation scheme with Fire Weather Index (FWI) to validate the forest fire Simula...

Controlled and automatic processing in animals and machines with application to autonomous vehicle control (2009)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Gurney, K., Hussain, A., Chambers, J., & Abdullah, R. (2009, September). Controlled and automatic processing in animals and machines with application to autonomous vehicle control. Presented at ICANN: International Conference on Artificial Neural Networks, Limassol, Cyprus

There are two modes of control recognised in the cognitive psychological literature. Controlled processing is slow, requires serial attention to sub-tasks, and requires effortful memory retrieval and decision making. In contrast automatic control is...
