Abstract: System and computer-implemented method for generating multi-cloud recommendations for workloads uses costs and performance metrics of appropriate instance types in specific public clouds for target workloads to produce recommendation results. The appropriate instance types in the specific public clouds are determined based on instance capabilities and the workload type of the target workloads. In addition, a recommended cloud resource offering is determined for the target workloads, which is sent as a notification with the recommendation results of the appropriate instance types in the specific public clouds.

Abstract: An SR drive with an acoustic noise reduction system for reducing vibration and acoustic noise in a switched reluctance motor (SRM). The vibration and acoustic noise at specific harmonics of current excitation in SRM are in a proportional relationship with the radial force harmonics acting at SRM stator teeth. The acoustic noise reduction system includes a processor on which is installed an acoustic noise reduction application designed to derive an optimum current waveform for generating an average torque satisfying an optimum torque condition and creating radial force with minimum amplitude at the desired order of harmonics of current excitation. A reduction in the amplitude of the specific radial force harmonics utilizing the optimum current waveform minimizes the vibration and acoustic noise in the SRM. The acoustic noise reduction system applies turn-on and turn-off angles at the optimum current waveform to improve the system efficiency.
