OBJECTIVE To validate a calibrated smartphone-based hearing test in a sound booth environment and in primary health-care clinics. DESIGN A repeated-measure within-subject study design was employed whereby air-conduction hearing thresholds determined by smartphone-based audiometry was compared to conventional audiometry in a sound booth and a primary health-care clinic environment. STUDY SAM...

In this paper we propose a new concept for multiplication by using modified booth algorithm and reversible logic functions. Modified booth algorithm produces less delay compare to normal multiplication process. Modified booth algorithm reduces the number partial products which will reduces maximum delay count a the output. by combining modified booth algorithm with reversible gate logic it will...

This paper describes the pipelined architecture of high-speed modified Booth Wallace Multiply and Accumulator. The proposed multiply and accumulate circuits are based on the Booth algorithm and the pipelining techniques, which are most widely used to accelerate the multiplication speed. A 32-bit MAC Unit is designed in which the multiplication is done using the Modified Booth Wallace Multiplier...

Presently, the design of a compact multiplier is playing a vital role in the stream of VLSI signal processing, DSP, Modern wireless communication etc. The main goal of this proposal is to design a compact booth multiplier by using modified radix4 recoding and an efficient finite state machine (FSM) to achieve small chip size and low delay utilization. In the existing technique, compression base...

This paper proposes two parallelized radix-4 scalable Montgomery multiplier implementations. The designs do not require precomputed hard multiples of the operands, but instead uses Booth encoding to compute products. The designs use a novel method for propagating the sign bits for negative partial products. The first design right shifts operands to reduce critical path length when using Booth e...

We present a new model for polling-booth voting: the voter enters the polling booth with a computational assistant which helps her verify that her vote is correctly recorded. The assistant interacts with the voting system while the voter votes on the machine in the polling booth. We present an independentlyverifiable, coercion-resistant protocol based on this model. Unlike all other independent...

BACKGROUND This study determined the accuracy of pure tone air conduction (AC) thresholds obtained using a synchronous telemedicine approach without a sound booth in a rural South African community. The global need for increased hearing healthcare currently far exceeds the capacity for delivering these services, especially in developing countries. A tele-audiology approach using a portable diag...
