This may be due either to very local processes operating within the average galaxy, or to external, environmental effects. Specifically, the build-up of structure may be responsible for terminating star formation in some gal...

Synthesis of Externally Synchronous, Internally Asynchronous Circuits

The purpose of this work is to take an arbitrary 2phase synchronous circuit and eliminate its global clock while preserving its externally visible behavior. This is done by converting it into a set of self-timed combinational circuits with latches and a clock generation network that uses only a local handshake. We discuss the overhead required by this approach to selftiming and outline opportun...

Tense in Adjuncts Part 2: Temporal Adverbial Clauses
