Byzantine chants constitute a form of monophonic vocal music characterized by lengthy phrases and by musical scales with intervals smaller than the western music semitones. Byzantine churches have extremely long Reverberation Time and their acoustics is dominated by the contributions of the diffuse sound field. Thus, the sound character of Byzantine chanting is closely linked to the acoustic re...

High speed Arithmetic Units (AUs) are widely used in architectures used in signal and image processing applications. AUs involve multifunctions and have multiplier as the critical element. In this paper, we present design and implementation of high speed and area efficient AU using Vedic algorithm. The work uses a simple “vertical and crosswise sutra” of Vedic mathematics to produce low complex...

Last December, Hamas held its annual rally in a Gaza stadium. More than 70,000 people— an overflow audience—attended. As Hamas leaders took the podium one after another, making incendiary speeches against the peace accords and calling for jihad against the Jews, the fervor of the crowd mounted. Cries of “Allahu Akbar! [God is great]” and “Mawt lil-Yahud! [Death to the Jews]” greeted the speaker...

In this design our objective is to emphasize the importance of Vedic Mathematics for digital applications. Ancient Vedic mathematics not only facilitate the complex mathematical Operations but also useful for logical applications. In the present work we are using the concept of Urdhva-tiryakbyham, i.e., vertical and crosswise Multiplication and its implementation for 16-bit multiplication. This...
