Recent thrust of research has focused on non-conventional classrooms for teaching to EFL learners. Amongst the newly developed models, Unplugged Classroom Model (UCM) is the most debated one as textbooks are aside and the syllabus is based on conversation-driven activities. This study sought to determine the pros and cons of unplugged teaching for enhancing EFL learners' oral proficiency. From ...

Increasingly demanding computation requirements and tighter energy constraints have motivated distributed and/or hierarchical register file (dhrf) organizations as a mean to efficiently sustain a sufficient alu utilization in processors targeting embedded applications with many alus. Compared to conventional centralized register file organizations, dhrfs lead to tighter coupling between registe...
