In this paper, we propose Secure Intermittent-Robust Computation (SIRC) for Energy Harvesting Powered Internet of Things (IoT) Devices. This effort innovates a new duty-cycle-variable computing approach to facilitate and invigorate security in energyharvesting-powered IoT network nodes. The proposed SIRC architecture is developed from the ground up by extending emerging postCMOS switching eleme...

We study the construction of prediction algorithms in a situation in which a learner faces a sequence of trials with a prediction to be made in each and the goal of the learner is to make few mistakes We are interested in the case that the learner has reason to believe that one of some pool of known algorithms will perform well but the learner does not know which one A simple and e ective metho...

A new hardware structure for implementation of soft morphological filters is presented in this paper. This is based on the modification of the majority gate technique. A pipelined systolic array architecture suitable to perform real-time soft morphological filtering is presented as an illustrative example. The processing times of the proposed hardware structure do not depend on the data window ...

In digital topology, the use of a pair of connectivities is required to avoid topological paradoxes. In mathematical morphology, selfdual operators and methods also rely on such a pair of connectivities. There are several major issues: self-duality is impure, the image graph structure depends on the image values, it impacts the way small objects and texture are processed, and so on. A sub-class...

An antimedian of a profile π = (x1, x2, . . . , xk) of vertices of a graph G is a vertex maximizing the sum of the distances to the elements of the profile. The antimedian function is defined on the set of all profiles on G and has as output the set of antimedians of a profile. It is a typical location function for finding a location for an obnoxious facility. The ‘converse’ of the antimedian f...

This paper presents a novel low-power majority function-based 1-bit full adder that uses MOS capacitors (MOSCAP) in its structure. It can work reliably at low supply voltage. In this design, the timeconsuming XOR gates are eliminated. The circuits being studied are optimized for energy efficiency at 0.18-mm CMOS process technology. The adder cell is compared with seven widely used adders based ...

The Varian Real-time Position Management (RPM) system allows respiratory gating based on either the phase or displacement (amplitude) of the breathing waveform. A problem in clinical application is that phase-based gating, required for respiration-correlated (4D-CT) simulation, is not robust to irregular breathing patterns during treatment, and a widely used system version (1.6) does not provid...

we only show one further result that emphasizes our point that understanding LMP is fundamental to understanding any generalization of this process. A simple generalization of the local majority process would allow vertex v to have some resistivity towards color switch. Formally, for a nonnegative integer kv, we de ne a kv-local majority rule for vertex v: ct+1 v = ( ctv if jfw 2 Nv : ctw = ctv...
