During the routing of global interconnects, macro blocks form useful routing regions which allow wires to go through but forbid bu ers to be inserted. They give restrictions on bu er locations. In this paper, we take these bu er location restrictions into consideration and solve the simultaneous maze routing and bu er insertion problem. Given a block placement de ning bu er location restriction...

The relative location of simultaneous transmitters, i.e. the set of nodes transmitting a frame at a given time, has a crucial impact on the performance of multi hop wireless networks. Two fundamental aspects of wireless network performances are related to these locations: capacity and interference. Indeed, as interference results from the summation of signals stemmed by concurrent transmitters,...

Receptive fields of neurons in somatosensory area 3b of monkeys are typically described as restricted to part of a single digit or palm pad. However, such neurons are likely involved in integrating stimulus information from across the hand. To evaluate this possibility, we recorded from area 3b neurons in anesthetized owl monkeys with 100-electrode arrays, stimulating two hand locations with el...

In this work we present an infrared location system for relative pose (position and orientation) estimation in a multi-robot system. Pose estimates are essential for tasks like cooperative simultaneous localization and mapping (C-SLAM), and formation control. In simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) relative pose estimates enable more accurate and less time-consuming map building. Respec...

three antituberculosis medications are investigated in this work consist of rifampicin, isoniazid and pyrazinamide. the ultra violet (uv) spectra of these compounds are overlapped, thus use of suitable chemometric methods are helpful for simultaneous spectrophotometric determination of them. a generalized version of net analyte signal standard addition method (gnassam) was used for determinatio...
