Estimating and minimizing the maximum power dissipation during testing is an important task in VLSI circuit realization since the power value affects the reliability of the circuits. Therefore during testing a methodology should be adopted to minimize power consumption. Test patterns generated with –D 1 option of ATALANTA contains don’t care bits (x bits). By suitable filling of don’t cares can...

purpose the aim of this study was to investigate the relation between anthropometric variables and total race time including split times in 184 recreational male ironman triathletes. methods body mass, body height, body mass index, lengths and circumferences of imbs, thicknesses of skin-folds, sum of skin-fold thicknesses, and percent body fat were related to total race time including split tim...

In this work, we show how to use the positive results on succinct argument systems to prove impossibility results on leakage-resilient black-box zero knowledge. This recently proposed notion of zero knowledge deals with an adversary that can make leakage queries on the state of the prover. Our result holds for black-box simulation only and we also give some insights on the non-black-box case. A...

New applications demand very high processing power when run on embedded systems. Very Long Instruction Word (VLIW) architectures have emerged as a promising alternative to provide such processing capabilities under the given energy budget. However, in this new VLIW-based architectures, the register file is a very critical contributor to the overall power consumption and new approaches have to b...

Biologic valves can sometimes have a small closure or leakage backflow jet originating from the central coaptation point. This is physiologic regurgitation that usually only requires monitoring, and not treatment.Another non-central transvalvular leakage is occasionally seen in both porcine and pericardial valves and originates from the base of the stent post. Typically, it spontaneously decrea...

We present two techniques to reduce the power consumption in FPGAs. The first technique uses two supply voltages: timing-critical paths run on normal Vdd, while the non-critical ones save power by using a lower Vdd. Our programmable dual-Vdd architectures and Vdd assignment algorithms provide an average power saving of 61% across the MCNC benchmarks. The second technique targets applications wh...

abstract background: the pressure of consumption spots in eater supply systems is one of the most important hydraulic parameters can be used in optimized management of water distribution networks. since the pressure has some different effects on various parameters of the network management including its hydraulic functions, reliability, stability and leakage, its control is of great importance ...

In this paper we rst present several compiler techniques to reduce the overhead of run-time parallelization. We show how to use static control ow information to reduce the number of memory references that need to be traced at run-time. Then we introduce several methods designed speciically for the parallelization of sparse applications. We detail some heuristics on how to speculate on the type ...

Privacy preservation is a fundamental issue in data mining and knowledge discovery. The primary objective of privacy preservation is to protect an individual’s confidential information in released data sets. In recent years, several simulation-based approaches for privacy preservation have been proposed. The idea is to generate a synthetic data set with the constraint that the probability distr...
