چکیده

Recently, there has been a resurgence of interest in asynchronous design techniques. The research activity in this area has pointed to the need for suitable techniques for modelling and simulating asynchronous systems. The occam programming language allows the rapid development of parallel simulation models of asynchronous systems but its distributed nature introduces time modelling problems. This paper presents an approach for dealing with these problems.

Building Parallel Distributed Models for Asynchronous Computer Architectures

Recently, there has been a resurgence of interest in asynchronous design techniques. Asynchronous logic provides a solution to the clock-related timing problems of synchronous systems and can offer higher performance and lower power consumption. This paper presents an approach for modeling and simulating asynchronous computer architectures using occam as a description language.

Petri Net analysis of the MASCOT Pool IDA Communication Mechanisms

The paper is concerned with modelling and analysis of the MASCOT Pool IDA communication mechanisms. Both the Four-slot fully asynchronous mechanism and the Two-slot conditionally asynchronous mechanism are investigated. The mechanism properties are defined first, to provide the basis for Petri nets modelling. Place/Transition nets and Coloured Petri nets are used to produce the models. The Desi...

Parallelizing Assignment Problem with DNA Strands

Background:Many problems of combinatorial optimization, which are solvable only in exponential time, are known to be Non-Deterministic Polynomial hard (NP-hard). With the advent of parallel machines, new opportunities have been emerged to develop the effective solutions for NP-hard problems. However, solving these problems in polynomial time needs massive parallel machines and ...

Simulating Asynchronous Architectures on Transputer Networks

Recently, there has been a resurgence of interest in asynchronous design techniques due to the potential of asynchronous logic for higher performance, power ef-ciency and immunity from clock-related timing problems. Occam, a CSP-based parallel language provides for the rapid development of asynchronous architectural simulation models which may then be executed on a transputer network to achieve...
