This paper tackles the VLSI circuit reverse engineering problem. Actual VLSI circuits are made of several millions of transistors or hundreds of thousands of logical gates. Whether it be for circuit verification, functional abstraction, or simply circuit understanding, reverse engineering aims at building a hierarchy from the transistor level, to gate level, to register level, up to more comple...

Modern computers require an exponential increase in resources when solving computationally hard problems, motivating the need for alternative computing platform to solve such problems energy-efficient manner. Vertex coloring, a nondeterministic polynomial time (NP-hard) combinatorial optimization problem, is one problem. Herein, experimental demonstration of using cardiac cell-based bio-oscilla...

Ontology is the main infrastructure of the Semantic Web which provides facilities for integration, searching and sharing of information on the web. Development of ontologies as the basis of semantic web and their heterogeneities have led to the existence of ontology matching. By emerging large-scale ontologies in real domain, the ontology matching systems faced with some problem like memory con...
