ASIC for real time data authentication

Creator:: Anjum, Vaseem
Abstract:: Authentication is a means of developing an electronic signature that works like a written signature. It assumes that your data is publicly known but nevertheless ensures that the message is not tampered with and that you have an audit trail. This project discusses the techniques and concepts used to design...

A multiprocessor node for communication and control

Creator:: Atluri, Venkata Ram
Abstract:: This paper describes the design and implementation of "A multiprocessor node for communication and control" (MPCC). MPCC is a high speed, high performance local area network capable of performing real time control tasks. This is achieved by the concurrent operation of two 8051 microcontrollers, a dual port RAM and the...

Implementation of remote job control of the draft machine through Unix mail

Creator:: Jin, Sue-May
Abstract:: A remote job control system for the DRAFT machine is developed. It provides the user a convenient remote computing environment with facilities for job submission, a means of servicing the job queue on a first-come-first-serve basis, and usage reporting. It provides a logging facility to keep track of the user's...

Task Grapher : task graph scheduling in multiprocessor computer systems

Creator:: Chu, Lee-Jung Julie
Abstract:: This report presents a graphical tool for implementation of the scheduling heuristics provided by Kruatrachue. The input of scheduling is a task graph and the output is a schedule in the form of a Gantt chart. The implemented scheduling heuristics are: 1) Hu's HLF (highest level first) algorithm. 2) Yu's...

A programmable system scheduler for control oriented local area networks (COLAN)

Creator:: Lim, Choo-chiang
Abstract:: The Control-Oriented Local Area Network (COLAN) is a distributed control system for a series of networked microcontrollers, which has been under development at Oregon State University since 1986. A reliable master controller, functioning both as a task scheduler and as a network controller, is required to allow users to perform...

Implementation of processor allocation in an N-Cube multiprocessor on Macintosh

Creator:: Liu, Jinyue
Abstract:: The processor allocation in an n-dimensional hypercube multiprocessor using buddy strategy, gray code strategy, and a new strategy is implemented on Macintosh. Our implementations show that when processor relinquishment is not considered (i.e. static allocation), all these strategies are optimal in the sense that each incoming request sequence is always...

Linda, tuple spaces and its implementation on a network of Unix workstations

Creator:: Cherala, Janakiram
Abstract:: In this paper we outline an implementation of Linda on a network of Unix workstations. A literature survey was done to gain a better perspective on state of the art and to learn from the experiences of other implementations. The tuple space which is central to the Linda system is...

Design and implementation of an advanced GUI for the Petri Net Editor

Creator:: Qazi, Sanjeev
Abstract:: The problem addressed in this paper is that of usability of the Petri Net Editor used to create applications in the Objex framework. This editor puts a lot of burden on the user, in that the user needs to remember all the GUI resources previously created for the application, has...

Scheduling system of affine recurrence equations by means of piecewise affine timing functions

Creator:: Mui, Lap K.
Abstract:: Many systematic methods exist for mapping algorithms to processor arrays. The algorithm is usually specified as a set of recurrence equations, and the processor arrays are synthesized by finding timing and allocation functions which transform index points in the recurrences into points in a space-time domain. The problem of scheduling...

A programmable network interface unit for hybrid meshnet local area networks

Creator:: Merchant, Shashank C.
Abstract:: A Hybrid Meshnet LAN, a new local area network architecture, has been proposed by Dr. Cheoul-Shin Kang and Dr. James Herzog. It provides for distributed control hybrid architecture which is good for effective load sharing under various local area network environments. Hybrid Meshnet has a dual channel structure, a token...

Efficient arithmetic using self-timing

Creator:: Ramachandran, Ravichandran
Abstract:: The recent advances in VLSI technology have facilitated feature shrinking and hence a rapid increase in the levels of integration at the chip level. This increase in the level of integration has brought along with it a host of other constraints, the most crucial being timing management and increased power...

A pipelined baseband digital predistortion architecture for RF amplifier linearization

Creator:: Xu, Xiangqing
Abstract:: This thesis describes the design of a baseband digital predistortion architecture for radio frequency (RF) amplifier linearization. Existing amplifier linearization techniques are first examined. The nonlinearity of an amplifier can be characterized as amplitude-to-amplitude distortion and amplitude-to-phase distortion. The distortion can be corrected by providing a predistorted driver signal (both...

Smalltalk-like collection classes in Java

Creator:: Sirimalle, Vinod
Abstract:: Data structures are essential for any programming task. Most of modem programming languages have a library of reusable data structures. In this project, Smalltalk-like collection classes have been implemented as a Java package. This package, collections, contains several useful data structures such as binary tree, B-Tree, bag, list, hash table...

Little Smalltalk in Java

Creator:: Pandrangi, Phani Srikanth
Abstract:: Little Smalltalk is a small, reasonably fast, easy-to-understand, easy-to-modify Smalltalk system. The system was originally developed in 1984 as a part of an implementation project to develop a minimal Smalltalk system, closely resembling Smalltalk-80. The system was developed in C. The current project is an experiment to port the Little...
