As the demand for efficient energy sources continues to grow, electrical systems are becoming more essential to meet these increased needs. Electrical generation and transmission plans must remain cost-effective, reliable, and flexible for further future expansion. As these systems are being utilized more frequently, it becomes imperative to find ways of optimizing their overall function. Novel Advancements in Electrical Power Planning and Performance is an essential reference source that provides vital research on the specific challenges, issues, strategies, and solutions that are associated with electrical transmission and distribution systems and features emergent methods and research in the systemic and strategic planning of energy usage. Featuring research on topics such as probabilistic modeling, voltage stability, and radial distribution, this book is ideally designed for electrical engineers, practitioners, power plant managers, investors, industry professionals, researchers, academicians, and students seeking coverage on the methods and profitability of electrical expansion planning.

Over the last several years, the preparation and utilization of compost from non-conventional sources has increased exponentially, and MSWC made from MSW is one of these efforts. Since agricultural fields suffered from organic carbon, micro-nutrients deficiency and soil quality, there is a need to find out an optimum dose(s) of MSWC in combination with chemical fertilizers to avoid under or over use of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potash (K) and heavy metals loading dynamics with productivity potentials to a particular cropping pattern. This book, therefore, adds a new knowledge on appropriate dose of MSWC in combination with fertilizers in terms of productivity, its nutrients dynamics and benefits in soil quality to the selected cropping pattern. The analysis also reflects the cost and benefit of MSWC production and its quality in respect of plants nutrients and heavy metals loading. This book should be useful to professionals involved in waste management and its marketing, or teacher and students who deal with soil management through organic amendments.

Despite the emergent of a large number of software quality improving techniques, in practice people tend to use the value-neutral approaches in software quality analysis and achievement. Based on the literature survey and empirical results, the traditional views of software quality often lead to stakeholder unsatisfactory outcomes even if sometimes an almost zero-defect product is delivered. The reason is that different systems have different success-critical stakeholders, and even for the same system these stakeholders may depend on it in different ways. There are no universal one- size-fits-all software quality metrics to optimize and we need to balance stakeholders' different value propositions on software quality attributes. Thus, there is an increasing need for stakeholder/value based approaches to software quality modeling and its achievement monitoring and control. A Value-Based Software Quality Analysis framework is being suggested through this book, which consists of the definitions, metrics, model, and process to address various aspects of software and system quality analysis and achievement using value-based approaches.
