In this paper, we investigate the implementation of reconfigurable computing in commercial applications. A Reconfigurable Processing Unit, the Xilinx XC6200 is introduced and our design flow with the HOTWorks development system is shown. We show the design of reconfigurable computing versions of Photoshop plug-ins, and compare various approaches of implementation. We analyze the test result and...

A mathematical model for anaerobic digestion in plug-flow reactors is proposed on the basis of mass balance considerations. The consists a system parabolic partial differential equations variables representing concentrations bio-components constituting waste matrix and takes into account convective diffusive phenomena. reactor modelled as one-dimensional domain; moves direction axis undergoes p...

A numerical methodology for three-dimensional fluid dynamics and chemical kinetics simulation of the combustion gas-exchange processes in Wankel engine was developed validated. Two approaches performance enhancement were studied—the addition a slot rear side rotor recess, installation third plug trailing working chamber, to two available plugs mounted leading baseline engine. The obtained resul...

As discussed in the previous lecture, we are interested in forcing fluid to flow in a fuel cell in order to increase the limiting current, and thus the power output of the device. The model problem considered has a steady uniform flow of fluid carrying the reactant at a constant concentration, c0, into a 2-D channel of height H. In this model we will assume that the fluid velocity profile acros...

The electromigration (EM) performance of W-plug vias of different sizes, different capping layer types and electron flow directions in a multilevel metallization system was investigated. When the electron flow direction was from metal 2 to metal 1, with a TiN-capped metallization system, the time-to-failure dispersion (sigma) was greatly influenced by via size. However, when the electron flow d...

The combining calculus [MSK07] provides a framework for analyzing the information flow of multi-threaded programs. The calculus incorporates so called plug-in rules for integrating several previously existing analysis techniques. By applying a plug-in rule to a subprogram, one decides to analyze this subprogram with the given analysis technique, and not with the rules of the combining calculus....

Real-time and on-line continuous monitoring of reactants, intermediates, and final products for dicarbonyl compound bioreduction in a continuous plug flow reactor packed with baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) whole cells immobilized on calcium alginate beads was performed by membrane introduction mass spectrometry (MIMS) via selective ion monitoring.
