CREEP: Chalmers RTL-based Energy Evaluation of Pipelines

Energy estimation at architectural level is vital since early design decisions have the greatest impact on the final implementation of an electronic system. It is, however, a particular challenge to perform energy evaluations for processors: While the software presents the processor designer with methodological problems related to, e.g., choice of benchmarks, technology scaling has made impleme...

Chalmers Tekniska Högskola, Gothenburg, Sweden

The objective behind Tangible User Interfaces (TUIs) is to allow users to interact with computers through familiar tangible objects, thereby taking advantage of the richness of the tactile world combined with the power of computer-based simulations. TUIs “give physical form to digital information, employing physical artifacts both as representations and controls for computational media” [1]. Th...

CHALMERS Face verification using biometric hashing

Face-based biometrics approach has proved to be robust and efficient for verification systems (comparison with a reference database). While it opens the door to a range of applications principally aimed at securing areas, it fails to get its way to high-security systems, such as banking transactions. In this thesis, we outline an attempt to take a first step in the latter direction, by generati...
