OVERVIEW FPGAs are increasingly used as parallel processing engines for demanding digital signal processing applications. Benchmark results show that on highly parallelizable workloads, FPGAs can achieve higher performance and superior cost/performance compared to digital signal processors (DSPs) and general-purpose CPUs. However, to date, FPGAs have been used almost exclusively for fixed-point...

Abs t rac t . We present a fully abstract, denotationa] model for mobile, timed, nondeterministic data-flow networks whose components communicate in a point-to-point fashion. In this model components and networks of components are represented by sets of stream processing functions. Each stream processing function is required to be strongly guarded, generic and point-to, point. A stream processi...

developed for detection of allergen-specific IgE and could have utility for allergy diagnosis. However, it is only recently that an allergy diagnostic LFT has been introduced to practice. In this issue, Sanchez-Bahillo et al. [6] compare the performance of an allergy diagnostic LFT (ImmunoCAP Rapid, Phadia, Sweden) with skin prick testing in a cohort of allergic children from Cartagena (Spain) ...

The aim of this work is to describe the qualitative behavior of the solution set of a given system of fractional differential equations and limiting behavior of the dynamical system or flow defined by the system of fractional differential equations. In order to achieve this goal, it is first necessary to develop the local theory for fractional nonlinear systems. This is done by the extension of...

Background and Aim: Controversy exists regarding the correlation of saliva secretion with obesity. Considering the significant role of saliva in oral and dental health and the increasing prevalence of obesity in Iran in the past three decades, this study aimed to assess the independent association of anthropometric indices including body mass index (BMI), weight gain after the age of 20 years a...

In this paper the intake manifold as the most effective part on engine’s volumetrice efficiency is in vestigated in detail with emphesizing on flow behavior and characterestics. The eight different design have been  prepared  and  imported to CFD software. Five objective functions for investigation of flow have been connsidered and applied in TOPSIS with different weights. Mass flow rate,massfl...

For G a closed subgroup of S∞, we provide a precise combinatorial characterization of when the universal minimal flow M(G) is metrizable. In particular, each such instance fits into the framework of metrizable flows developed in [KPT] and [NVT]; as a consequence, each G with metrizable universal minimal flow has the generic point property, i.e. every minimal G-flow has a point whose orbit is co...

A robust, integrative algorithm is presented for computing the position of the focus of expansion or axis of rotation (the singular point) in optical flow fields such as those generated by self-motion. Measurements are shown of a fully parallel CMOS analog VLSI motion sensor array which computes the direction of local motion (sign of optical flow) at each pixel and can directly implement this a...
