Duplication with Comparison (DWC) is an effective software-level solution to improve the reliability of computing devices. However, it introduces performance and energy consumption overheads that could be unsuitable for high-performance or real-time safety-critical applications. In this article, we present Reduced-Precision (RP-DWC) as a means lower overhead DWC by executing redundant copy in r...

We consider the post-training quantization problem, which discretizes weights of pre-trained deep neural networks without re-training model. propose multipoint quantization, a method that approximates full-precision weight vector using linear combination multiple vectors low-bit numbers; this is in contrast to typical methods approximate each single low precision number. Computationally, we con...

Application of information and communication technologies in various agricultural branches is done by using the Precision Agriculture methods and approaches. Beekeeping is old and traditional branch of agriculture where still many manual operations are done to care bee colonies and observe the apiary state and conditions. Information technologies can be used in the beekeeping to partly support ...

1 INTRODUCTION The technical requirements of precision injection molded components demand a heightened level of process performance, and with corresponding process monitoring and control technologies. To obtain the desired critical to quality attributes (CTQs) of the molded products, the injection molding process must be consciously designed such that the key process variables (KPVs) are observ...

High-resolution and high-precision angle sensors are expected for nanotechnology control system. The technology for manufacturing high-precision disks, and the measurement evaluation technology through the angle calibration system, and the development of a high-resolution optical angle sensor with high-precision and a self-accuracy calibrating function was achieved. This was accomplished using ...

abstract the quality of soil maps depends upon their ability to show the soils variability. thus, the accuracy of the maps used for crop recommendations is due to the accuracy of soil maps. this study was performed to investigate the amount of soil properties and crop yield spatial variability in s 2 and s3 units of a semi-detailed quantitative suitability map (1:50000 scale) for irrigated whea...
