Abstract: The ring-on-ring bending principle allows the fabrication of simple, low-cost thick-film piezoresistive sensors for compressive forces in the 10 to 400 N range. However some imperfections are encountered in its basic embodiment, such as relativel ...
We consider a transmission of a delay-sensitive data stream from a single source to a single destination. The reliability of this transmission may suffer from bursty packet losses - the predominant type of failures in today's Internet. An effective and wel ...
We address the problem of joint optimal rate allocation and scheduling between media source rate and error protection rate in scalable streaming applications over lossy multipath networks. Starting from a distortion representation of the received media inf ...

We report the experimental demonstration of all-optical
wavelength multicasting of OC-768 (40 Gbps) channel using
a single-pass, pump modulated parametric amplifier. The performances
of 1-to-20 and 1-to-40 multicasting with excellent signal fidelity
we ...

Using forward error correction (FEC) in off-line streaming, permitting large buffers, yields spectacular results, but real-time streaming puts hard restrictions on the buffer size and therefore does not allow FEC to deal with long link failures on a single ...
On-chip wires are becoming unreliable as the effect of various noise sources increases with technology scaling. This leads to unpredictable timing delay variations on the interconnect wires. There is a significant need to mitigate the effect of parasitics ...
Underwater communications is a very challenging topic due to its singular channel characteristics. Most protocols used in terrestrial wireless communications can not be directly applied in the underwater world. A high bit error rate and low propagation del ...
With the latest developments in video coding technology and fast deployment of end-user broadband internet connections, real-time media applications become increasingly interesting for both private users and businesses. However, the internet remains a best ...
So far, performance and reliability of circuits have been determined by worst-case characterisation of silicon and of environmental conditions such as noise and temperature. As nanometer technologies exacerbate process variations and reduce noise margins, ...
The robustness of the delivery of digital compressed video streams has always been one of the main topic of the standardization bodies to assure the Quality of the Service (QoS). The MPEG standard which is nowadays the reference for digital television defi ...
