Asynchronous Communication Mechanisms Permit the Implementation of Data Interfaces between Heterogeneously Timed Entities at Various Hardware

چکیده
Practical examples of systems with heterogeneous timing requirements include the embedded real-time control and decisionmaking systems used in aerospace, automotive, and telecommunication applications. It is attractive to construct such systems as digital networks with inherent heterogeneous timing conditions. In these hets (short for heterogeneously timed nets), computational elements interact through asynchronous communication mechanisms (ACMs). Hets offer applications

Testing the data freshness properties of asynchronous communication mechanisms
1 Abstract Data freshness properties of asynchronous communication mechanisms (ACMs) are related to the relative timing of reader and writer statements. When a hardware implementation of an ACM is tested at the highest operating speed, such relative timing is difficult to measure if the observing hardware is not constructed of faster technology than the ACM. Here an indirect method is proposed ...
متن کامل2 Key Advances and Supporting Methodology
1 Background/Context There is a consensus among the international research community that asynchrony is becoming an increasingly important issue at all levels because of rapid advances in complexity and feature-size-reduction of integrated electronic circuits and advances in distributed multiple computer systems for many real-time applications. (cf. the findings of ITRS-2003 and the CDS Panel h...
متن کاملTesting a Self-Timed Asynchronous Communication Mechanism (ACM) VLSI Chip
A testing method and on-chip testing circuits for our VLSI chip of asynchronous communication mechanism (ACM) using self-timed circuits are presented in this paper. The three properties of ACMs, asynchrony, coherence and freshness, are what we want to test. Besides these, the general function of the chip and data loss are also of interest. Although this work is a specific solution for a specifi...
متن کاملA Secure Chaos-Based Communication Scheme in Multipath Fading Channels Using Particle Filtering
In recent years chaotic secure communication and chaos synchronization have received ever increasing attention. Unfortunately, despite the advantages of chaotic systems, Such as, noise-like correlation, easy hardware implementation, multitude of chaotic modes, flexible control of their dynamics, chaotic self-synchronization phenomena and potential communication confidence due to the very dynami...
متن کاملAsynchronous Communication Mechanisms Using Self-Timed Circuits
Two asynchronous data communication mechanisms (ACMs) using self-timed circuits are presented. Mutual exclusion elements are used to concentrate potential metastability to discrete points so that it can be resolved entirely within the ACMs themselves. Self-timed circuits allow the minimisation of the interface between the reader and writer processes and the ACMs. Initial analysis shows that the...
