This paper proposes a new integrative view of manufacturing cell formation and both inter-cell and intra-cell layout problems. Cells formation and their popular bi-directional linear layout are determined simultaneously through a Dynamic Programming algorithm (with the objective of minimizing the inter-cell flow cost under a cell size constraint). This Dynamic Programming algorithm is implement...

Developing a group of machine cells and their corresponding part families to minimize the inter-cell and intra-cell material flow is the basic objective of the designing of a cellular manufacturing system (CMS). Afterwards achieving a competent cell layout is essential in order to minimize the total inter-cell part travels, which is principally noteworthy. There are plentiful articles of CMS li...

The approach is based on a design of threshold logic gates (TLGs) and their seamless integration with conventional standard-cell design flow. We first describe a new robust, standard-cell library of configurable circuits for implementing threshold functions. Abstractly, the threshold gate behaves as a multi-input, single output, edge-triggered flip-flop, which computes a threshold function of t...

Nowadays cell phone is the most common communicating used by mass people. SMS based communication is a cheap and popular communication method. It is human tendency to have the opportunity to write SMS in their mother language. Text input in mother language is more flexible when the alphabets of that language are printed on the keypad. Bangla mobile keypad based on phonetics has been proposed ea...

In this paper we explore, extend and simplify the localization of the description ability of the well-established MPEG-7 (SCD, CLD and EHD) and MPEG-7-like (CEDD) global descriptors, which we call the SIMPLE family of descriptors. Sixteen novel descriptors are introduced, that utilize four different sampling strategies for the extraction of image patches to be used as points-of-interest. Design...

Self-aligned double patterning (SADP) has become a promising technique to push pattern resolution limit to sub-22nm technology node. Although SADP provides good overlay controllability, it encounters many challenges in physical design stages to obtain conflict-free layout decomposition. In this paper, we study the impact on placement by different standard cell layout decomposition strategies. W...

Standard cell layouts may need only slight modifications to meet timing constraints. In these situations, general purpose algorithms, which consider numerous parameters of the layout, may be too time consuming or too coarse to make the changes where needed. This paper presents an incremental timing driven placement algorithm designed to “cleanup” a handful of critical paths in a previously plac...
