نویسندگان
چکیده
111 this work a nlassively parallel VLSI architectu re is discussed: PAPRICA, a mesh connected machine that can also simulate a pyramidal architecture. Its computational paradigm is based on the lnatchiug operator as defined in nlathematical morphology. This description is equivalent to the Cellular Automata paradigm, which can simplify the design of PAPRICA applications in low-level vision. PAPRICA is currently simulated on a Unix workstation connected to a Connection Machine CM-2, while the hardware is under testing.

Modified 32-Bit Shift-Add Multiplier Design for Low Power Application
Multiplication is a basic operation in any signal processing application. Multiplication is the most important one among the four arithmetic operations like addition, subtraction, and division. Multipliers are usually hardware intensive, and the main parameters of concern are high speed, low cost, and less VLSI area. The propagation time and power consumption in the multiplier are always high. ...
متن کاملLow Complexity Converter for the Moduli Set {2^n+1,2^n-1,2^n} in Two-Part Residue Number System
Residue Number System is a kind of numerical systems that uses the remainder of division in several different moduli. Conversion of a number to smaller ones and carrying out parallel calculations on these numbers will increase the speed of the arithmetic operations in this system. However, the main factor that affects performance of system is hardware complexity of reverse converter. Reverse co...
متن کاملEfficient implementation of low time complexity and pipelined bit-parallel polynomial basis multiplier over binary finite fields
This paper presents two efficient implementations of fast and pipelined bit-parallel polynomial basis multipliers over GF (2m) by irreducible pentanomials and trinomials. The architecture of the first multiplier is based on a parallel and independent computation of powers of the polynomial variable. In the second structure only even powers of the polynomial variable are used. The par...
متن کاملAnalogue Architectures for Vision: Cellular Neural Networks and Neuromorphic Circuits
Vision machines based on actual computational methods require the development of simple low-level feature detectors. The low-level feature detectors measure local image properties as scale, orientation, and velocity. Analog VLSI devices that mimic some functionality of biological systems appear to be robust, low power consuming, and fast enough to solve vision problems in real time. In this the...
