Conventional 6T SRAM design involves balancing trade-offs among several critical metrics yield, power, performance and area. Reducing noise margins and worsening variation makes scaling the 6T bitcell to newer technologies and lower supply voltage difficult, especially due to the need to balance the trade-offs between various metrics. In particular, lowering the SRAM voltage for low-power opera...

binary decision diagram (bdd) is a data structure proved to be compact in representation and efficient in manipulation of boolean formulas. using binary decision diagram in network reliability analysis has already been investigated by some researchers. in this paper we show how an exact algorithm for network reliability can be improved and implemented efficiently by using cudd - colorado univer...

because of high strength to weight ratio, 6061 aluminum has many applications in different industries like automotive and aerospace industries and can help to reduction of fuel consumption. forming limit diagram (fld) is a useful method for sheet metal formability identification. whereas calculation of forming limit diagram by experimental tests is expensive and time consumption, in the present...

this research discusses the process of designing a conceptual model for a new information system, i.e. electronic document management system. the new system is designed for an educational institute (itvhe) whose managers are the research population. the research methodology is based on structured analysis and design methodology (ssadm). in the end, the new system proposed using a data flow diag...

Recently, aggressive voltage scaling was shown as an important technique in achieving highly energy-efficient circuits. Specifically, scaling Vdd to near or subthreshold regions was proposed for energy-constrained sensor systems to enable long lifetime and small system volume [1][2][4]. However, energy efficiency degrades below a certain voltage, Vmin, due to rapidly increasing leakage energy c...

In this article, a Binary Particle Swarm Optimization (BPSO) algorithm is proposed incorporating hamming distance as a distance measure between particles for feature selection problem from high dimensional microarray gene expression data. Hamming distance is used as an similarity measurement for updating the velocities of each particles or solutions. It also helps to reduce extra parameter (i.e...

Background: During experimental cardiac arrest, continuous insufflation of air or oxygen (CIO) through microcannulas inserted into the inner wall of a modified intubation tube and generating a permanent positive intrathoracic pressure, combined with external cardiac massage, has previously been shown to be as effective as intermittent positive pressure ventilation (IPPV). Methods: After basic c...

forming limit diagram (fld) is an important diagram by which the formability of sheet metals is studied. strain rate is a very effective parameter influencing the fld which is, in turn, influenced by the forming velocity. in this work, forming limit diagram for st14 was investigated both experimentally and numerically. in addition, the effect of forming velocity was studied and the experiments ...
