The fungi that cause mold and stain of freshly sawn lumber result in millions of dollars in losses to the forest products industry. Stain and mold are typically prevented by either kiln drying or by application of a topical fungicide. While these treatments are effective, kiln drying is costly and...
Fully efficient systolic arrays for the solution of Toeplitz
matrices using Schur algorithm [1] have been obtained. By applying
clustering mapping method [2], the complexity of the algorithm is
0(n) and it requires n/2 processing elements as opposed to n
processing elements developed elsewhere [1].
The motivation of this thesis...
In this dissertation, multi-rate array (MRA) architecture and its synthesis are proposed
and developed. Using multi-coordinate systems (MCS), a unified theory for mapping
algorithms from their original algorithmic specifications onto multi-rate arrays is
developed.
A multi-rate array is a grid of processors in which each interconnection may have its
own...
