Quantum-dot cellular automaton (QCA) is a novel nanotechnology with a very different computational method in compared with CMOS, whereas placement of electrons in cells indicates digital information. This nanotechnology with specifications such as fast speed, high parallel processing, small area, low power consumption and higher switching frequency becomes a promising candidate for CMOS tec...

This study introduces an optical DNA-based logic circuit that mimics a half-subtractor. The system contains an Au-surface immobilized molecular-beacon molecule that serves as a dual-gate molecule and outputs two series of fluorescence signals following Boolean INH and XOR patterns after interacting with one or two single-stranded DNA molecules as input. To the best of our knowledge, the system ...

Over the past decade, DNA has demonstrated remarkable potential in fabrication of molecular logic and arithmetic systems. In this work, a simple DNA-based system mimicking a full-subtractor that handles three inputs including one minuend and two subtrahends for eight input/output conditions is successfully designed. The whole system is established by one gate molecule and three input sequences,...

Floating Point operations is widely used in many areas, especially in signal processing. The greater dynamic range and lack of need to scale the numbers makes development of algorithms much easier. However, implementing arithmetic operations for floating point numbers in hardware is very difficult. The IEEE floating point standard defines both single precision (32-bit) and double precision (64-...

In this paper, we propose a novel approach to perform efficient motion estimation specific to surveillance videos. A real-time background subtractor is used to detect the presence of any motion activity in the sequence. Two approaches for selective motion estimation, GOP-by-GOP and Frame-byFrame, are implemented. In the former, motion estimation is performed for the whole group of pictures (GOP...

Optical half subtractors are required for designing any optical computation system. Operation speed and the on/off contrast ratios very important characteristics logic device. A novel structure composed of three nonlinear ring resonators some waveguides used proposed subtractor with improved operation ratio. The simulation results show that rise time this is 1.5 ps. Also B D 13.7 dB 14.5 respec...

In this paper, we present a new non-restoring square root algorithm that is very efficient to implement. The new algorithm presented here has the following features unlike other square root algorithms. First, the focus of the “nonrestoring” is on the “partial remainder”, not on “each bit of the square root”, with each iteration. Second, it only requires one traditional adder/subtractor in each ...
