READING and, with the help of colleagues, 'field-testing' this manual at various times throughout the Christmas season, I was struck with how sihiilar the editors' problem is with that of the housewife. The latter has to recycle traditional dishes in a fresh manner just as the editors of this manual attempt to rearrange material that has appeared elsewhere often by the same publisher and invari...

Reflection on past achievements and future challenges 10 years after the establishment of the Australian General Practice Training program.

Magnetic excitations in the quasi-one-dimensional antiferromagnet IPA-CuCl3 are studied by cold neutron inelastic scattering. Strongly dispersive gap excitations are observed. Contrary to previously proposed models, the system is best described as an asymmetric quantum spin ladder. The observed spectrum is interpreted in terms of composite Haldane spin chains. The key difference from actual S=1...

Adders are some of the most critical data path circuits requiring considerable design effort in order to squeeze out as much performance gain as possible. Various adder structures can be used to execute addition such as serial and parallel structures and most of researches have done research on the design of high-speed, low-area, or lowpower adders. Adders like ripple carry adder, carry select ...

The FFT is commonly used essential tool in digital signal processing applications .The adders used in Conventional Fast Fourier transform(FFT) are no longer appropriate for the reason that of its degraded rapidity concert. There are many dissimilar kinds of fast adders such as Carry Select Adder, Carry Save Adder and Carry Look Ahead Adder have been used for Fast Fourier Transform. However, the...
