| The channel segmentation design problem for symmetrical FPGAs is the problem of designing segmented tracks in the interconnection channels to provide good net routability and delay performance at the same time. In this paper, we show how to decompose the problem into the segmentation design problems of the vertical and horizontal channels by a statistical analysis of the net distribution on a...

This paper deals with the decentralized overlapping control of interconnected systems. The notion of a quotient overlapping fixed mode (QOFM) is first introduced and it is shown that a mode of an interconnected linear time-invariant system can be shifted by means of a general decentralized overlapping controller if and only if it is not a QOFM. It is then asserted that any interconnected system...

Joint source-channel coding (JSCC) has emerged to be a major field of research recently. Channel optimized vector quantization (COVQ) is a simple feasible JSCC scheme introduced for communication over practical channels. In this work, we propose an iterative design algorithm, referred to as the iterative maximum a posteriori (MAP) decoded (IMD) algorithm, to improve COVQ systems. Based on this ...

Kwabena Boahen Physics of Computation Laboratory California Institute of Technology MS 136-93, Pasadena, CA 91125, USA [email protected] ABSTRACT I discuss the tradeo s faced when asynchronous pulse trains are transmitted among large, two-dimensional, arrays of neurons on di erent chips, using time-division multiplexing, and present an implementation of an arbitered, random-access, channe...

The Multi-channel learning environment is nebulous and incidental configuration where channels reinforce as well as contradict each other. The Multi-channel learning system is a deliberate, planned configuration to create the sync and synergize the power of various media to achieve optimal learning. This articles examines instructional design for the classroom, for self instructional materials,...

This paper is motivated by the problem of integrating multiple sources of measurements. We consider two multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) channels, a primary channel and a secondary channel, with dependent input signals. The primary channel carries the signal of interest, and the secondary channel carries a signal that shares a joint distribution with the primary signal. The problem of part...

When designing a product line, a manufacturer is often aware that it does not control the ultimate targeting of the products in the line to the different consumer segments. While the manufacturers can attempt to influence the target customers through communications in appropriate media, product design, and the choice of channels of distribution, the ultimate targeting is made by a retailer, whi...

This report proposes a design flow and algorithms to implement the channel mapping, which generates interconnection topology of the system architecture, selects bus protocols, maps the communication channels among PEs to the generated buses, and configures bus parameters. Unlike previous work, the proposed design flow and algorithms are tailored for complex systems which contain hundreds of PEs...

This paper presents DTV transmitter design based on the SW/HW hybrid architecture. Parts of the DTV transmission algorithm with less computational complexity are processed by the SW module in PC whereas computationally intensive parts are processed by the HW module in FPGA. The two parts are interconnected by the high speed serial link. To provide the multichannel DTV signal, we design an archi...

In this correspondence, we generalize the theory of compactly supported biorthogonal two-channel wavelet bases to M -channel. A sufficient condition for the M -channel perfect reconstruction filter banks to constructM -channel biorthogonal bases of compactly supported wavelets is derived. It is shown that the construction of biorthogonal M -channel wavelet bases is equivalent to the design of a...
