This paper presents a solution to design and implement a hardware error detection and correction circuit using associative memories. This type of memory allows search of a binary value stored, having input data a partial (or modified) amount of this value. This property can be used in communication, for detection and correction of errors. In our analysis, the obtained experimental results were ...

INTRODUCTION Many are the circumstances in which action–perception dissociations have been observed (e.g. [1], [2]). Among the best known cases there are the pictorial illusions which induce errors in perception but cannot deceive a motor act. It is not yet clear however in which other conditions this separation could be noticed [3]. Following the work of Dubrowski [4] and Zago [5] we wanted to...

Classifying what-type questions into proper semantic categories is found more challenging than classifying other types in question answering systems. In this paper, we propose to classify what-type questions by head noun tagging. The approach highlights the role of head nouns as the category discriminator of whattype questions. To reduce the semantic ambiguities of head noun, we integrate local...

In this study, we investigated the control of the rotation dynamics of an innovative type of rotary micromotors with desired performances by tuning the magnetic interactions among the assembled micro/nanoscale components. The micromotors are made of metallic nanowires as rotors, patterned magnetic nanodisks as bearings and actuated by external electric fields. The magnetic forces for anchoring ...

A gas turbine thermodynamic cycle was computationally simulated and probabilistically evaluated in view of the several uncertainties in the performance parameters, which are indices of gas turbine health. Cumulative distribution functions and sensitivity factors were computed for the overall thermal efficiency and net specific power output due to the thermodynamic random variables. These result...

background: development in students' training management that emphasizes on using objective methods and more faculties' engagement in students evaluation, were motivation for application tools such as flowchart, checklists and rating scales. this study examined the effectiveness of performance rating tables (prts) in evaluation of medical interns in mashhad, iran. methods: internship ...
