The component characteristic curve tracer consists of hardware and software parts. Hardware part is a PC-based acquisition card mounted in standard personal computer. Software part is developed in National Instruments LABVIEW package. The tracer can be used for educational purposes, as well as in science purposes, for testing semiconductor or any other nonlinear electronic component.

In this paper we present a system for accelerating special kinds of neural networks. It is a hardware supported system consisting of diierent parts. A special-purpose neural coprocessor is connected to a personal computer (PC) by a special, asynchronous interface. Two diierent neural coprocessors are available, KO-KOS, a coprocessor for Kohonen's selforganizing map, and KOBOLD, accelerating bac...

Abstract The paper presents an accelerating of solving potential boundary value problems (BVPs) with curvilinear boundaries by modified parametric integral equations system (PIES). fast multipole method (FMM) known from the literature was included into PIES. To consider complex shapes a boundary, modification binary tree used FMM is proposed. combined PIES, called also allows significant reduct...

New development in the design and implementation of a distributed, real-time image processing system is presented in this work. The system uses an IBM personal computer as the front end to a remote computer via the Internet. The standard TCP/IP networking protocols are utilised to link the IBM-PC and high performance remote devices such as transputer networks and super-computers. The access to ...

A brain-computer interface (BCI) based on electroencephalography (EEG) is a promising technology for enhancing virtual reality (VR) applications-in particular, gaming. We focus the so-called P300-BCI, stable and accurate BCI paradigm relying recognition of positive event-related potential (ERP) occurring in EEG about 300 ms post-stimulation. implemented basic version such displayed an ordinary ...

The digital divide has attracted enormous attention from both the popular press and information systems researchers. A survey study was conducted to determine the impact of the digital divide on students’ selfdirected learning in an information technology-based learning environment through their computer selfefficacy, and to assess the role of the school IT environment in bridging this digital ...

The present study investigated the recreational use of video and computer games in the workplace. In an online survey, 833 employed users of online casual games reported on their use of computer games during working hours. The data indicate that playing computer games in the workplace elicits substantial levels of recovery experience. Recovery experience associated with gameplay was the stronge...

With the availability of powerful personal computers, workstations and networking devices, the recent trend in parallel computing is to connect a number of individual workstations (PC, PC SMP) to solve computation-intensive tasks in parallel way on such typical clusters as NOW, SMP, Grid). In this sense it is not more true to consider traditionally evolved parallel computing and distributed com...
