In embedded systems, modeling the performance of off-the-shelf processors is very important to enable the designer to estimate the capability of each candidate processor against the target application. Considering the large number of available embedded processors, the need has increased for building an infrastructure by which it is possible to estimate the performance of a given application on ...

Recently, sensor nodes in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have been using Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) for high-speed, low-power processing and reconfigurability. Reconfigurability enables adaptation of functionality performance to changing requirements. This paper presents an efficient architecture full remote reconfiguration FPGA-based wireless sensors. The novelty the work includes ...

We study the effect of disorder on hardcore bosons in two dimensions at the SU(2) symmetric “Heisenberg point”. We obtain our results with quantum Monte Carlo simulations using the directed loop algorithm. In the absence of disorder, the system has no long-range order at finite temperature due to the enhanced symmetry. However, the introduction of a disordered potential, uniformly distributed f...

This paper will present the socioeconomic profile and nutritional status of children aged 1-6 years in the rubber smallholdings of Peninsula Malaysia. A total of 323 households were involved in this study. The sociodemographic data were obtained through interviews with heads of households using a set of questionnaires. Anthropometric measurements were taken from 506 children aged 1-6 years from...

A theorem of Green, Tao, and Ziegler can be stated (roughly) as follows: ifR is a pseudorandom set, andD is a dense subset of R, then D may be modeled by a set M that is dense in the entire domain such that D and M are indistinguishable. (The precise statement refers to“measures” or distributions rather than sets.) The proof of this theorem is very general, and it applies to notions of pseudora...
