——Superconductor logic has the potential of extremely low-power consumption and ultra-fast digital signal processing. Unfortunately, the obtained yield of the present processes is low and specific faults occur. This paper deals with fault-modelling, Design-for-Test structures, and ATPG for these integrated circuits. Index Terms—— Fault modelling, Design-for-Test, Defect Monitor Structures, ATPG

A program for manual scheduling of digital signal processing algorithms is presented. The program works with a cyclic scheduling formulation that yield maximally fast implementations. The operations can be moved across a number of sample intervals by drag-and-drop-operations. By implementing the program in Java it can be used on all platforms supporting Java.

This paper describes a method to integrate digital topology informations in image-processing libraries. This additional information allows a library user to write algorithms respecting topological constraints, for example, a seed fill or a skeletonization algorithm. As digital topology is absent from most image-processing libraries, such constraints cannot be fulfilled. We describe and give cod...

In this paper we will show a way how to detect edges in digital images. Edge detection is a fundamental part of many algorithms, both in image processing and in video processing. Therefore it is important that the algorithm is efficient and, if possible, fast to carry out. The fuzzy set theory based approach on edge detection is good for use when we need to make some kind of image segmentation,...

In this thesis, I designed and implemented a program which simulates a television receiver on a workstation. The television receiver is connected to a network called the Media Bank. The Media Bank is a distributed database which is being developed at the MIT Media Laboratory. The program is written in C and runs on the OSF3.2 UNIX operating system. This software package simulates a future telev...

the article introduces cyclic dilation groups and finite affine groups for prime integers, and  as an application of this theory it presents a unified group theoretical approach for the  cyclic wavelet transform (cwt) of prime dimensional periodic signals.

The current methods of turfgrass evaluations are often based on human-based assessment methods. However, eliminating subjective errors from such evaluations is often impossible. This research compared the accuracy of human-based and digital image processing-based methods for quality assessment of turfgrasses. Four turfgrass plots were evaluated using the two mentioned methods. In the human-base...

The fundamental advantages of superconducting single flux quantum (SFQ) circuits in low energy switching (~10-19 J/bit for 4K operation), high switching speed (a few ps/bit) and lossless, low dispersion interconnect can substantially increase energy efficiency digital data and signal processors. This should have a profound impact to computing systems for high-end data centers, next generations ...

Recent improvements in the speed and complexity of commercially available digital signal processing (DSP) devices have allowed digital techniques to be extended to a number of new areas. Now many applications in RF and communications are within the bandwidth capability of current generation DSP systems. This paper demonstrates a system developed recently for such applications. It uses standard ...
