In this paper, we propose a new architectural technique to reduce energy dissipation of frame memory through adaptive bitwith compression. Unlike related approaches, the technique utilizes the fixed order of memory accesses and data correlation of video sequences by dynamically adjusting the memory bitwidth to the number of bits changed per pixel. Instead of treating data bits independently, we...

A method for creating digital image copyright protection is proposed in this paper. The proposed method in this paper is based on visual cryptography defined by Noor and Shamir. The proposed method is working on selection of random pixels from the original digital image instead of specific selection of pixels. The new method proposed does not require that the watermark pattern to be embedded in...

The memristor is promising to be the basic cell of next-generation computation systems. Compared to the traditional MOSFET device, the memristor is efficient over energy and area. But one of the biggest challenges faced with researchers is how to program a memristor’s resistance precisely. Recently, an algorithm designed to save 8 valid bits in each memristor is proposed, but this is still not ...

We study a class of problems called Modular Inverse Hidden Number Problems (MIHNPs). The basic problem in this class is the following: Given many pairs 〈 xi, msbk ( (α+ xi) −1 mod p )〉 for random xi ∈ Zp the problem is to find α ∈ Zp (here msbk(x) refers to the k most significant bits of x). We describe an algorithm for this problem when k > (log2 p)/3 and conjecture that the problem is hard wh...

the purpose of the present paper is to investigate semantic deviation of the holy quran in amal donqol's poetry. deviation is one of the techniques of defamiliarization, and was first introduced by the russian formalists in 1917. constructivist attitude toward literary texts and emphasis on the aesthetic aspects of the literary works led formalists to consider literary language as the main...
