With the rapid growth of the Internet, IP-lookup becomes the bottle-neck in network traffic management. Therefore, the design of high speed IP routers has been a major area of research. The focus of this paper is on achieving significant reduction in memory requirements for the longest prefix-match operation needed in IPv4/v6 lookups. The Longest Prefix Matching (LPM) is one of the problems in ...

This paper proposes a two-dimensional (2-D) VLSI architecture using a uni ed systolic array for fast computation of the discrete cosine transform/discrete sine transform/discrete Hartley transform (DCT/DST/DHT). The N -point discrete transform is decomposed into evenand oddnumbered frequency samples and they are computed independently at the same time. The proposed uni ed systolic array archite...

Traditionally, parallel programming paradigms are associated with only a single class of parallel architecture. No single model of parallel computation has been able to span the range of parallel architecture classes. This has resulted in a lack of portability of software between parallel architectures, also a lack of portability of programmers' skills. This report describes the latest developm...

A uni® ed system of photometry is proposed that is based on human vision and allows the speci® cation of visual stimuli at all light levels. To be useful, however, photometry can never be entirely synonymous with vision. Additivity is an essential characteristic of photometry, yet many visual responses, such as brightness matching, incorporate visual channels that are inherently non-additive in...

This paper constitutes a re nement of the fuzzy uni cation algorithm based on fuzzy compatibility relations, which we have developed with the aim of including the data type fuzzy set in a logic programming environment which supports a family of in nitely-valued logics. To be precise, we treat the problem of fuzzy uni cation by focusing on the distinction between general and speci c knowledge. F...

This study investigates the plural form uni/une deriving from numeral ‘one’ in Istriot dialect of Sissano. Sissano is located Istrian peninsula, an area characterized by high intensity linguistic contact. We argue that rise such a peculiar indeed induced contact with Croatian and unique Italo-Romance domain since, generally, indefinite forms derived Latin are pronouns never occur attributive po...

We have previously shown that fetal uninephrectomy (uni-x) at 100 days of gestation (term = 150 days) in male sheep results in a 30% nephron deficit, reduction in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and renal blood flow, and elevation in arterial pressure at 6 mo of age. Furthermore, in response to an acute 0.9% saline load, sodium excretion was significantly delayed in uni-x animals leading us to...

College students, especially women, demonstrated negativity toward math and science relative to arts and language on implicit measures. Group membership (being female), group identity (self female), and gender stereotypes (math male) were related to attitudes and identification with mathematics. Stronger implicit math male stereotypes corresponded with more negative implicit and explicit math a...

OBJECTIVE Nightmares are a robust and modifiable predictor of increased suicidality and poor psychiatric outcomes, yet nightmare screening and treatment remain rare, even in sleep centers. This paper aims to examine what proportion of nightmare sufferers have discussed nightmares with a healthcare provider, as well as possible explanations for low rates of nightmare complaints. METHODS The pr...
