Abstract The rapid development of emerging domains, such as the Internet Things and wearable technologies, necessitates flexible, stretchable, non-toxic devices that can be manufactured at an ultra-low cost. Printed electronics has emerged a viable solution by offering not only aforementioned features but also high degree customization, which enables personalization products facilitates low-cos...

Asynchronous design has been an active area of research since at least the mid 1950's, but has yet to achieve widespread use. We examine the benefits and problems inherent in asynchronous computations, and in some of the more notable design methodologies. These include Huffman asynchronous circuits, burst-mode circuits, micropipelines, template-based and trace theory-based delay-insensitive cir...

We implement a test pattern generation algorithm for synchronous sequential circuits. The sequential test generation algorithm, which is effective for small and medium sized sequential circuits, is based on the PODEM algorithm. In this paper we first implement the standard PODEM algorithm using C++ which is fully tested using combinational circuits. Then we generate test patterns for sequential...

This paper introduces a new design of penternary inverter gate based on graphene nanoribbon field effect transistor (GNRFET). The penternary logic is one of Multiple-valued logic (MVL) circuits which are the best substitute for binary logic because of its low power-delay product (PDP) resulting from reduced complexity of interconnects and chip area. GNRFET is preferred over Si-MOSFET for circui...

abstract- the high production of orange fruit in iran calls for quality sorting of this product as a requirement for entering global markets. this study was devoted to the development of an automatic fruit sorter based on size. the hardware consisted of two units. an image acquisition apparatus equipped with a camera, a robotic arm and controller circuits. the second unit consisted of a robotic...

   Multiplier is one of the important components in many systems such as digital filters, digital processors and data encryption. Improving the speed and area of multipliers have impact on the performance of larger arithmetic circuits that are part of them. Wallace algorithm is one of the most famous architectures that uses a tree of half adders and full adders to increase the speed and red...

Nano Magnetic Logic (NML) has been attracting application in optical computing, nanodevice formation, and low power. In this paper nanoscale architecture such as the decoder, multiplexer, and comparator are implemented on perpendicular-nano magnetic logic (pNML) technology. All these architectures with the superiority of minimum complexity and minimum delay are pointed. The proposed architectur...

Finding suitable analysis techniques for networks generated from social processes is a difficult task when the population changes over time. Traditional social network analysis measures may not work in such circumstances. It is argued that agent-based social networks should not be constrained by a priori assumptions about the evolved network and/or the analysis techniques. In most agent-based s...

Various synthesis methods have been proposed in the literature for reversible and quantum logic circuits. However, there are few algorithms to optimize an existing circuit with multiple constraints simultaneously. In this paper, some heuristics in genetic algorithms (GA) to optimize a given circuit in terms of quantum cost, number of gates, location of garbage outputs, and delay, are proposed. ...
