SNAP: A Sensor-Network Asynchronous Processor
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a Sensor-Network Asynchronous Processor (SNAP), which we have designed to be both a processor core for a sensor-network node and a component of a chip multiprocessor, the Network on a Chip (NoC), which will execute a novel sensor-network simulator. We discuss the advantages of using the same processor for nodes in physical and simulated sensor networks. We describe the attributes that a processor must possess to function well in both roles, and we then describe the way we designed SNAP to have these attributes.

Synaptotagmin-7 Is an Asynchronous Calcium Sensor for Synaptic Transmission in Neurons Expressing SNAP-23
Synchronization of neurotransmitter release with the presynaptic action potential is essential for maintaining fidelity of information transfer in the central nervous system. However, synchronous release is frequently accompanied by an asynchronous release component that builds up during repetitive stimulation, and can even play a dominant role in some synapses. Here, we show that substitution ...
متن کاملDisTriB: Distributed Trust Management Model Based on Gossip Learning and Bayesian Networks in Collaborative Computing Systems
The interactions among peers in Peer-to-Peer systems as a distributed collaborative system are based on asynchronous and unreliable communications. Trust is an essential and facilitating component in these interactions specially in such uncertain environments. Various attacks are possible due to large-scale nature and openness of these systems that affects the trust. Peers has not enough inform...

Bearings only tracking is a challenging issue with many applications in military and commercial areas. In distributed multi-sensor multi-target bearings only tracking, sensors are far from each other, but are exchanging data using telecommunication equipment. In addition to the general benefits of distributed systems, this tracking system has another important advantage: if the sensors are suff...

This paper demonstrates the utility of the Semantic Network Array Processor (SNAP) as a massively parallel platform for high performance and large-scale natural language processing systems. SNAP is an experimental massively parallel machine which is dedicated to, but not limited to, the natural language processing using semantic networks. In designing the SNAP, we have investigated various natu...
