(2019-10-31)
Global shrimp production has steadily increased and is currently one of the primary users of fishmeal (FM). At the same time, Global fishmeal supply has reached a plateau, with demand still continuing to increase resulting ...
A Practical Quaternary FPGA Architecture Using Floating Gate Memories
(2020-05-11)
A new quaternary FPGA (QFPGA) architecture based on floating-gate memory elements is presented and analyzed. While technology scaling has delivered substantial FPGAperformance, consumer demands grow beyond what binary ...
A Practical Rate Adaptation Algorithm for IEEE 802.11 Networks
(2010-07-28)
IEEE 802.11 standard has evolved from the early basic transmission rate to today's multiple transmission rates. The performance of IEEE 802.11 devices has been improved by exploiting multiple transmission rates. However, ...
Practical Stateless Geographical Routing (PSGR) - 3-D Stateless Geographic Routing for Underwater Acoustic Sensor Networks
(2008-05-15)
Underwater acoustic sensor networks have recently gained increasing research attentions due to their vast potential applications. Although the limited bandwidth and power resources in such networks have made stateless ...
Practically Realizing Random Access Scan
(2006-05-15)
The number of clock cycles in a serial scan (SS) test is often prohibitive as the number of flip-flops (FF) increases. Besides, scan-in and scan-out sequences result in unwanted circuit activity. This increases the test ...
