چکیده

The tradeoff between the ease of sketching a mechanical system on paper and the power of representing it on a computer is too great, as evidenced by the fact that mechanical designers typically begin by sketching their designs on paper, then transfer them to the computer only after the initial design process is complete. To bring early design to the computer, we must develop a tool that allows the user to sketch freely, yet still interprets and understands the user’s drawing as a mechanical system. We present a tool that allows users to sketch simple 2-D mechanisms and report on early reactions to it.

Reversible Logic Multipliers: Novel Low-cost Parity-Preserving Designs

Reversible logic is one of the new paradigms for power optimization that can be used instead of the current circuits. Moreover, the fault-tolerance capability in the form of error detection or error correction is a vital aspect for current processing systems. In this paper, as the multiplication is an important operation in computing systems, some novel reversible multiplier designs are propose...
