The AE32000 processor core, developed by Advanced Digital Chips Inc., Korea, is used primarily in the embedded processing environment. The AE32000 simulator models this embedded processor core having high code density. An enhanced simulator was developed to study the performance of the present Instruction Set Architecture after comparison with the...
Embedded processors are utilized in many applications with considerable time spent developing and maintaining functionality and performance. Performance being a key factor in adding features such as video and audio to a product. Configurable processors, such as X32V, allow the addition of functionality and performance without large increases in design...
Increasing automation and highly flexible manufacturing processes cause increasing complexity for manufacturing system. FMS (Flexible Manufacturing System) is an approach to solve this problem. Since the elements of the FMS and manufacturing process performance are closely interrelated, the application of simple modeling and emulation techniques in the planning stages for...
Expert systems is an area of artificial intelligence that shows promise for a wide
variety of applications, particularly in solving problems that have always been considered
too large and complex for solution by conventional approaches. However, the process of
eliciting expertise from an expert, knowledge acquisition, is recognized as the...
A method for improving performance/watt of an embedded single-instruction multiple-data (SIMD) architecture using application-guided a priori scheduling of hardware resources is presented. A multi-core architectural simulator is adopted that accurately estimates power, performance, and utilization of various processor components (logic, interconnect and memory). A greedy search is then performed on...
The widespread use of TCP as a transport layer protocol for mobile ad-hoc networks and wireline networks has motivated the need to make its implementation highly power efficient specially with respect to ad hoc radio networks. Over the past years many researchers have developed energy efficient protocols for mobile ad-hoc...
In data-centers, running multiple isolated workloads while getting the most performance out of available hardware is key. For many years Virtual Machines (VMs) have been an enabler, but native containers which offer isolation similar to virtual machines while reducing overhead costs associated with emulating hardware resources have become an increasingly...
The term "Intuitive use" has become a common phrase to describe interfaces and products, however it is rarely defined. Research regarding intuitive use is in its infancy, beginning primarily in 2003. With the development of new terms in Human Factors and Human-Computer Interaction, it is important for Designers and Users...
A high speed adaptive signal processing concept and several high
speed adaptive logic circuit elements are presented.
The adaptive signal processing system operates in a "goal" oriented
mode; the system tries to optimize its characteristics to
achieve a given goal in spite of unforeseen variations in the inputs,
the system,...
Automated Storage and Retrieval (AS/R) Systems
have had a considerable impact on manufacturing and
distribution processes. The configuration of AS/R systems
vary considerably, depending on the particular application.
The effect of different retrieval scheduling rules
is analyzed and compared for three different unit-load
AS/R systems operating under dual-command cycle. The...
