A 16-bit parallel processing in a molecular assembly

A 16-bit parallel processing in a molecular assembly.

A machine assembly consisting of 17 identical molecules of 2,3,5,6-tetramethyl-1-4-benzoquinone (DRQ) executes 16 instructions at a time. A single DRQ is positioned at the center of a circular ring formed by 16 other DRQs, controlling their operation in parallel through hydrogen-bond channels. Each molecule is a logic machine and generates four instructions by rotating its alkyl groups. A singl...

‏‎a 10-bit 50-ms/s parallel successive-approximation analog-to-digital converter‎‏

‏‎applications such as high definition viedeo reproduction, portable computers, wireless, and multimedia demand, and ever-increasing need for ligh-frequency high-resolution and low-power analog-to-digital converters. flash, two-step flash, and pipeline convertors are fast but consume large amount of power and require large area. to overcome these problems, successive approximation converter blo...

Parleda: a Library for Parallel Processing in Computational Geometry Applications

ParLeda is a software library that provides the basic primitives needed for parallel implementation of computational geometry applications. It can also be used in implementing a parallel application that uses geometric data structures. The parallel model that we use is based on a new heterogeneous parallel model named HBSP, which is based on BSP and is introduced here. ParLeda uses two main lib...

Parallel processing of encoded bit strings

.any operations on strings of length n can be speeded up by a factor of p using p processors. String operations can also be speeded up, even when a single processor is used, by compactly encoding the strings, e.g. using run length code. This paper shows how to combine tnese two approaches by using p processors to process compactly encoded strings. DTIC ' SELECTE JAN 2 8 85_ O
