Conventional digital clock distribution interconnection causes a severe power consumption problem for GHz clock distribution because of transmission line losses, and it exhibits difficult signal integrity problems due to clock skew, clock jitter and signal reflection. To overcome these conventional digital clock distribution limitations, optical clock distribution techniques, based on guided-wa...

Optimization of process parameter is one of the ideal goals in laser sintering. The results of this process were measured as output parameters like: density, micro hardening, macro hardening, tension, roughness, stiffness, balling. In this paper, the influence of input parameter such as laser power, scan speed, material powder and etc are surveyed on output parameter like balling affection and ...

This study presents new low-power multiple-valued logic (MVL) circuits for nanoelectronics. These carbon nanotube field effect transistor (FET) (CNTFET)-based MVL circuits are designed based on the unique characteristics of the CNTFET device such as the capability of setting the desired threshold voltages by adopting correct diameters for the nanotubes as well as the same carrier mobility for t...

In this paper we propose a new lifetime distribution which can handle bathtub-shaped, unimodal, increasing and decreasing hazard rate functions. The model has three parameters and generalizes the exponential power distribution proposed by Smith & Bain (1975) by inclusion of an additional shape parameter. Maximum likelihood estimation procedure is discussed. A small-scale simulation study examin...

A new parametric (3-parameter) survival distribution, the lognormal-power function distribution, with flexible behaviour is introduced. Its hazard rate function can be either unimodal, monotonically decreasing or can exhibit a bathtub shape. Special cases include the lognormal distribution and the power function distribution, with finite support. Regions of parameter space where the various for...
