Recently, several mechanisms have been proposed as a basis for designing molecular electronic logic switching elements. Many two terminal molecular devices functioning as diodes have been synthesized with responses similar to silicon devices such as rectifying and resonant tunneling diodes. In this paper, the feasibility of integrating these molecular diodes into current circuit architectures i...

Two ways to exploit chips with a very large number of transistors are multicore processors and programmable logic chips. Some data parallel algorithms can be executed efficiently on ordinary parallel computers, including multicores. A class of data parallel algorithms is identified which have characteristics that make implementation on multiprocessors inefficient, but they are well suited for d...

− Noise in deep submicron technology combined with the move towards dynamic circuit techniques for higher performance have raised concerns about reliability and energyefficiency of VLSI systems in the deep submicron era. To address this problem, a new noise-tolerant dynamic circuit technique is presented. In addition, the average noise threshold energy (ANTE) and the energy normalized ANTE metr...

DNA strand displacement techniques have been used to implement a broad range of information processing devices, from logic gates, to chemical reaction networks, to architectures for universal computation. Strand displacement techniques enable computational devices to be implemented in DNA without the need for additional components, allowing computation to be programmed solely in terms of nucleo...

Neural network holds great promise to be the next generation computer for the sake of its strong capacity of massive parallel processing, good capability of discerning, compatibility with analog computing, self-learning ability, and so on. In this course project, I designed a basic biological function unit cell, which can mimic one basic biological conditioned reflex function in two versions: c...

Routing wires are dominant performance stoppers in deep sub-micron technologies, and there is an urgent need to take them into account already at higher levels of abstraction. However, the normal design flow gives the designer only limited control over the details of the lower levels, risking the quality of the final result. We propose a language, called Wired, which lets the designer express c...

The main goal of this project is to provide a method of correct design of digital circuit. It combines the advantages of VHDL, the well-known language of circuit design, with the power of B method that guarantees the correct design (w.r.t. a formal specification). This allows avoiding the design test since it is ”correct by proven construction”. Furthermore, this project provides a tool, called...

design and optimization of a single crystalline silicon (c-si) solar cell is performed to achieve the maximum light conversion efficiency. various parameters such as doping concentration and thicknesses, and geometrical dimension of surface pyramids are studied. the inverted surface pyramid is used to increase the efficiency of the solar cell, and engineered oxide layer is used as the passivati...

For simple digital circuits, conventional method of designing circuits can easily be applied. But for complex digital circuits, the conventional method of designing circuits is not fruitfully applicable because it is time-consuming. On the contrary, Genetic Programming is used mostly for automatic program generation. The modern approach for designing Arithmetic circuits, commonly digital circui...
