The multipliers are the key structure for designing high performance digital systems. Design considerations of multiplier include high speed, less power consumption, less PDP (power-delay product) and regularity of layout. These design parameters make it suitable for various compact low power VLSI implementations. This paper presents an application of the proposed XNOR-XOR cell for a 2x2 array ...

According to Bowers (2009), the finding that there are neurons with highly selective responses to familiar stimuli supports theories positing localist representations over approaches positing distributed representations (including PDP models). However, his conclusions derive from an overly narrow view of the range of possible distributed representations and of the role that PDP models can play ...

In this thesis we study the geometry and topology of Riemannian 3-orbifolds which are locally volume collapsed with respect to a curvature scale. Our main result is that a sufficiently collapsed closed 3-orbifold without bad 2-suborbifolds satisfies Thurston’s Geometrization Conjecture. We also prove a version of this result with boundary. Kleiner and Lott indepedently and simultanously proved ...

Kad imbas sangat lazim digunakan sebagai bahan bantu mengajar (BBM) dalam pengajaran dan pembelajaran (PdP) kanak-kanak prasekolah sejak abad ke-19. Kajian kes ini meneroka amalan PdP yang berasaskan kad BBM oleh tiga orang guru terdiri daripada sektor berbeza, iaitu kerajaan, swasta, pusat perkembangan kanak-kanak. Data diperoleh dengan pengaplikasian teknik triangulasi menerusi gabungan kaeda...

One problem in collaborative pickup delivery (PDP) was excessive outsourced jobs. It happened many studies on the PDP. Besides, revenue sharing it unclear although important. This work aimed to propose a novel PDP model which minimizes total travel distance while maintains low proposed several contributions. First, prioritized internal jobs first rather than full model. Second, new adopted clus...

Restriction Site Mapping is one of the interesting tasks in Computational Biology. A DNA strand can be thought of as a string on the letters A, T, C, and G. When a particular restriction enzyme is added to a DNA solution, the DNA is cut at particular restriction sites. The goal of the restriction site mapping is to determine the location of every site for a given enzyme. In partial digest metho...

I came up with the name TECO in 1962 while sitting in Ye Hong Guey, my favorite restaurant in Boston’s Chinatown during my undergraduate years at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. I had been working on a little program to help me write other programs, a common activity in the day when a computer (the Digital Equipment Corporation PDP-1) would be delivered with almost no software. My pr...
