چکیده

This paper describes the construction of a high-performance neural processor using fast Sum-And-Threshold logic and Correlation Matrix Memory binary neural network components. The addition of PCIbus and VMEbus interfaces is described. Typical driver support is discussed for the PCI implementation, focusing on a standard x86 PC running Microsoft WindowsNT4 operating system. Processing speed improvements are described over software-based approaches to search and match operations on unstructured data.

A Parallel Architecture for Binary Neural Networks

This paper introduces a novel architecture, PRESENCE , which is a hardware implementation of a binary neural network. The architecture described provides two orders of magnitude of speed-up over a conventional workstation solution. PRESENCE is based on a ve stage pipeline processor implemented using FPGA devices. The design is currently implemented on a VME based bus network, and is also being ...

A PCI Bus Based Correlation Matrix Memory and Its Application to k-NN Classification

This paper describes a PCI bus based implementation of a binary correlation matrix memory (CMM) neural network and its application and performance for use as a k-NN based pattern classification system. The system expands on earlier VME based system incorporating FPGA based implementation through greater integration and lower cost. Experimental results for several benchmarks show that, compared ...

Techniques for Strong Partitioning of Vme- Based Multiprocessor Systemes

The VME bus has been widely used in embedded systems due to its rigorous design, stable specifications, and the fact that it has enjoyed a strong support from multiple vendors. However, the VME bus still lacks some features that are essential to safety-critical systems, such as avionics. In this paper, we address the issue of lacking the capability of fault containment in the current specificat...

A Control and Data Acquisition System Based on the Pxi Bus for the New Photon Beam Position Monitor Prototype

1 [email protected] Abstract Usually, in large experimental physics facilities, systems based on the VME bus, are widely used both for the lower level of the control system and for data acquisition. It is common to use this environment also for those applications that do not really need its features. The PXI bus is an industrial extension of the well-known PCI bus used in the deskto...

A millenium approach to Data Acquisition: SCI and PCI

The international SCI standard IEEE/ANSI 1596a [Ref. 1.] is on its way to become the computer interconnect of the year 2000 since for a first time, low latency desktop multiprocessing and cluster computing can be implemented at low cost. The PCI bus is todays’s dominating local bus extension for all major computer platforms as well as for buses like VMEbus. PCI is a self configuring memory and ...
