Quantum-dot Cellular Automata (QCA) is an emerging and promising technology that provides significant improvements over CMOS. Recently QCA has been advocated as an applicant for implementing reversible circuits. However QCA, like other Nanotechnologies, suffers from a high fault rate. The main purpose of this paper is to develop a fault tolerant model of QCA circuits by redundancy in hardware a...

Novel digital technologies always lead to high density and very low power consumption. One of these concepts is Quantum-dot Cellular Automata (QCA), which is one of the new emerging nanotechnology-based on Coulomb repulsion. This article presents three architectures of logical “XOR” gate, a novel structure of two inputs “XOR” gate, which is used as a module to implement four inputs “XOR” gate a...

fitzhugh-nagumo (fhn) model is a famous reaction-diffusion system which first introduced for the conduction of electrical impulses along a nerve fiber. this model is also considered as an abstract model for pattern formation. here, we have used the cellular automata method to simulate the pattern formation of the fhn model. it is shown that the pattern of this model is very similar to those of ...

urban settlements and their connectivity will be the dominant driver of global change during the twenty-first century. in an attempt to assess the effects of urban growth on available land for other uses and its associated impacts on environmental parameters, we modeled the change in the extent of gorgan city, the capital of the golestan province of iran. we used landsat tm and etm+ imagery of ...

Among emerging technologies, Quantum-dot Cellular Automata (QCA) is an attractive alternative for transistor based technologies. In this paper, novel efficient Quantum-dot Cellular Automata (QCA) devices are proposed that provide 3-input and 4-input AND & OR gates. These gates have simple structure and are efficient in term of cell counts, complexity and latency. These components are suitable f...

Quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA) are one of the most promising alternative platforms of the future. Recent years have witnessed the development of basic logic structures as well as more complex processing structures, however most in the realm of binary logic. On the grounds that future platforms should not disregard the advantages of multi-valued logic, Lebar Bajec et al. were the first to s...
