In this paper we describe an implementation of a 2dimensional DCT processor and shows that the GALS (Globally Asynchronous Locally Synchronous) approach is highly suitable for implementation of such processors. Primarily it increases the design efficiency by using the divide-and-conquer approach.

We show a generic, simple way to amplify the error-tolerance of locally decodable codes. Specifically, we show how to transform a locally decodable code that can tolerate a constant fraction of errors to a locally decodable code that can recover from a much higher error-rate. We also show how to transform such locally decodable codes to locally list-decodable codes. The transformation involves ...

groups of infinite rank in which every subgroup is either normal or self-normalizing are characterized in terms of their subgroups of infinite rank.

in this paper we introduce the concept of topological number for locally convex topological spaces and prove some of its properties. it gives some criterions to study locally convex topological spaces in a discrete approach.

in a fuzzy metric space (x;m; *), where * is a continuous t-norm,a locally fuzzy contraction mapping is de ned. it is proved that any locally fuzzy contraction mapping is a global fuzzy contractive. also, if f satis es the locally fuzzy contractivity condition then it satis es the global fuzzy contrac-tivity condition.

In a fuzzy metric space (X;M; *), where * is a continuous t-norm,a locally fuzzy contraction mapping is de ned. It is proved that any locally fuzzy contraction mapping is a global fuzzy contractive. Also, if f satis es the locally fuzzy contractivity condition then it satis es the global fuzzy contrac-tivity condition.    

In this paper, firstly, we obtain some new results about bornological convergence in locally convex cones (which was studied in [1]) and then we introduce the concept of bornological completion for locally convex cones. Also, we prove that the completion of a bornological locally convex cone is bornological. We illustrate the main result by an example.

‎let $g$ be a locally compact abelian group‎. ‎the concept of a generalized multiresolution structure (gms) in $l^2(g)$ is discussed which is a generalization of gms in $l^2(mathbb{r})$‎. ‎basically a gms in $l^2(g)$ consists of an increasing sequence of closed subspaces of $l^2(g)$ and a pseudoframe of translation type at each level‎. ‎also‎, ‎the construction of affine frames for $l^2(g)$ bas...
