A novel and low-cost passively compliant mechanism is described that can be used with RC servos to actuate legged robots in tasks involving high dynamic loads such as bouncing. Compliance is achieved by combining visco-elastic material and metal parts. Joi ...
We propose a protocol that can be used between an RFID tag and a reader to exchange a secret without performing any expensive computation. Similarly to the famous blocker tag suggested by Juels, Rivest, and Szydlo, our scheme makes use of special tags that ...
As dictated by ongoing technology scaling and the advent of multi-core systems, each new generation of microprocessors and digital signal processors provides higher computing power and data throughput. However, the available bandwidth of the input/output ( ...
We present iterative subdomain methods based on a domain decomposition approach to solve the coupled Stokes/Darcy problem using finite elements. The dependence of the convergence rate on the grid parameter h and on the physical data is discussed; some diff ...
Biochips are emerging as a useful tool for high-throughput acquisition of biological data and continue to grow in information quality and in discovering new applications. Recent advances include CMOS-based integrated biosensor arrays for deoxyribonucleic a ...

With the development of atomic force microscopes that allow higher scan speeds, the need for data acquisition systems (DAQ) that are capable of handling the increased amounts of data in real time arises. We have developed a low cost data acquisition and sc ...
In the scope of the development of a complete top-down design flow targeting clock and data recovery circuits for high-speed data links, we present two methods to analyze the jitter tolerance of such links, based on statistical simulation of incoming data ...
In this work, MOS Current Mode Logic (MCML) is analyzed for low power, low noise, mixed signal applications demanding high security such as embedded cryptographic processors and smart cards. We emphasize the possible extension of MCML gate usage for low sp ...
To perform a current sensing in capacitorless 1-transistor (IT) DRAMs on SOI, we have developed a sensing scheme with automatic reference generation. The reference current is generated by an adjustable current source. The electrical calibration of the refe ...
Design and simulation of two-dimensional diffractive optical elements are often limited by the amount of data required to represent the element in the computer's memory. We present a technique based on a geometrical description of the element, which requir ...
