Understanding host-microbe interactions has been greatly enhanced by our broadening knowledge of the regulatory mechanisms at the heart of pathogenesis. The "transcriptomics" approach of measuring global gene expression has identified genes involved in bac ...
We show that locally altering fused silica with femtosecond laser irradiation forms the basis for a novel manufacturing technology platform to produce highly integrated microsystems. In contrast to many common approaches that rely on combining materials to ...
An experimental study of the dc breakdown voltage for planar MEMS interdigitated aluminum electrodes with gaps ranging from 10 to 500 micron is presented. Unlike most research on the breakdown in MEMS electrodes that was performed at atmospheric pressure, ...
Transactional memory (TM) is expected to become a widely used parallel programming paradigm for multi-core architectures. To reach this goal, we need tools that do not only help develop TMs, but also test them and evaluate them on a wide range of workloads ...
In this paper, we discuss an important problem of the selection of the neighborhood radius in the learning schemes of the Winner Takes Most Kohonen neural network. The optimization of this parameter is essential in case of hardware realization of the netwo ...
In this paper we present a software model of the Winner Takes Most (WTM) Kohonen neural network (KNN) with different types of the neighborhood grid. The proposed network model allows for analysis of the convergence properties such as the quantization error ...
There is a rapid rise of multi-cores in recent hardware architectures. To exploit computational power of multi-core architectures, software should shift to be as concurrent as possible; and therefore should have concurrency control mechanisms. There are di ...
3D stacked chips have become a promising integration technology for modern systems. The complexity reached in multi-processor systems has increased the communication delays between processing cores, and an effective way to diminish this impact on communica ...
A new odd-order frequency multiplier topology is demonstrated in this work that uses a subharmonic mixer to realize a frequency tripler. A feedforward circuit is used for fundamental cancellation at the output and eliminates the need for filtering structur ...

New tendencies envisage 2D and 3D Multi-Processor Systems-On-Chip (MPSoCs) as a promising solution for the consumer electronics market. MPSoCs are complex to design, as they must execute multiple applications (games, video), while meeting additional design ...
