Renewable Energy Consumption and Carbon Emissions: Evidence from an Oil-Rich Economy
Published 2022“…The results reveal that renewable energy consumption has a negative impact on CO<sub>2</sub> emissions, while real GDP per capita has a positive effect. According to the findings, a 1% increase in renewable energy consumption leads to a 0.26% decrease in consumption-based CO<sub>2</sub> emissions, while a 1% rise in real GDP per capita leads to a 0.46% rise in consumption-based CO<sub>2</sub> emissions. …”

An efficient failure-resilient mutual exclusion algorithm for distributed systems leveraging a novel zero-message overlay structure
Published 2024“…An extensive simulation study demonstrates the viability and efficiency of the proposed algorithm under various node failure models, and relevant metrics (e.g., node queue dimension, number of exchanged messages, and number of disconnected nodes) indicate a graceful degradation in performance with decreasing number of functioning nodes. For instance, for 4,096 nodes organized in a logical tree of arity 4 and with 4 physical nodes for logical node, a negligible number of nodes is disconnected from the tree after 250 epochs when the per-node per-epoch failure probability is p f ≤ 0 . 0008 . …”
