We develop a new switch-level simulator, CSim, for MOS transistor cells. CSim simulates cells without circuit parameters, such as the sizing of transistors. To tackle the challenges caused by the lack of circuit parameters, a new transistor-level levelization algorithm is developed. SPICE simulator is used as reference simulator, CSim is accurate in a sense that the simulation results for a cel...

An image of a straight edge in confocal self-interference microscopy (CSIM) is analyzed. Simulations of edge images based on a two-dimensional imaging equation are presented that show a 103% increase in edge gradient and a 43.1% decrease in the 10-90% width. The first experimental results, to our knowledge, for CSIM are presented and show good agreement with the simulation results and a 23% dec...

An image consists of many discrete pixels with greyness of di erent levels, which can be quanti ed by greyness values. The greyness values at a pixel can also be represented by an integral as the mean of continuous greyness functions over a small pixel region. Based on such an idea, the discrete images can be produced by numerical integration; several e cient algorithms are developed to convert...

There are many research and clinical settings in which accurate objective measures of speech intelligibility are either necessary or highly desirable. Unfortunately, most objective measures of intelligibility require blinded human listeners to classify speech tokens obtained from the talker whose speech intelligibility is to be measured, a process that can be both costly and time-consuming to c...

15 We are continuing to extend the capabilities of U.P.S. , and seek to expand its user base and to port it to other platforms. We are implementing an MPI (Message Passing Interface) version; MPI is the newly emerging standard for message-passing applications. When operational, U.P.S. will execute on any platform supporting both CSIM and MPI, which we expect to include most parallel systems as ...

To make feasible and scalable the verification of large complex concurrent systems, it is necessary use compositional techniques even at highest abstraction layers. When focusing on lowest software layers, such as implementation or machine code, high level detail those layers makes direct properties very difficult expensive. It therefore essential to allowing simplify these One technique tackle...

UNLABELLED The current study was undertaken to investigate the impact of speech motor issues on the speech intelligibility of children with moderate to severe speech sound disorders (SSD) within the context of the PROMPT intervention approach. The word-level Children's Speech Intelligibility Measure (CSIM), the sentence-level Beginner's Intelligibility Test (BIT) and tests of speech motor contr...

Wide area networks have a large number of computers capable of providing a wide range of services. Due to their low cost and high performance, autonomous mobile Agents are being used to access information sources in distributed, wide-area, networks. Architectures such as active networks also employ intelligent, mobile network processes. However, there are no analytic models for the performance ...

This paper describes a CSIM-based simulation tool, called MultiSim, which allows eecient simulation of large-scale mul-tiprocessors. Methods are described for simulating several variations of wormhole routing, including multicast communication , the use of variable-sized buuers at routers within the network, and the use of virtual channels. The key to eecient simulation of such networks is that...

The simulation of computer architecture is an important task in the development of new architectures. Exploring novel architectures requires simulations which are flexible, easy to produce, and high performance. The greater these characteristics, the more efficiently the design space can be explored. A number of simulation frameworks exist which can assist the architect in creating new simulato...
