OMBINING entered variable (EV) subfunctions and C XOR patterns in a Karnaugh map (K-map) extraction process [3] is a special and powerful form of K-map multilevel function minimization. Used with two-level logic forms (AND and OR functions) this multilevel minimization approach leads to XOIUSOP, EQVPOS and hybrid forms that often represent a substantial reduction in the hardware not possible ot...

In digital communication, convolutional codes are important to control the errors between the transmitter and receiver. Convolutional code is a type of error correction code (ECC) which can perform both error detection and correction operation between transmitter and receiver side. Here information bits are transformed serially through the architecture which is one of the major advantages as co...

We propose a new experimentally corroborated paradigm in which the functionality of the brain's logicgates depends on the history of their activity, e.g. an OR-gate that turns into a XOR-gate over time. Our results are based on an experimental procedure where conditioned stimulations were enforced on circuits of neurons embedded within a large-scale network of cortical cells in-vitro. The under...

Quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA) is a novel nanotechnology that promises smaller size, lower power consumption, with faster speed and is considered as a solution to the scaling problems in complementary metal oxide semiconductor technology. We propose a novel QCA F-shaped XOR gate. The proposed gate is simple in structure and powerful in terms of implementing digital circuits. We implement n...
