Device, interconnect scaling and interconnection bottleneck are among the major challenges for CMOS scaling. Furhtermore, signal integrity issues like crosstalk-leakage of charge between capacitively coupled nets among neighboring signal lines-is becoming inexorable. We propose to astutely turn this detrimental effect into an advantage by engineering the interference among signal lines. Our proposal...
Data validation and reconciliation (DVR) plays key role in industries because it uses process information and statistical methods to estimate correct measurements from the observed data. DR is very effective when measurement is free from gross error. Data observed from chemical processes can be serially correlated. Serial correlation in data can arise when a process, takes time to adjust, is exposed...
Acoustic Echo Cancellation (AEC) is a signal processing method which ensures a pleasant duplex communication in hands free system by suppressing the echo signal. Acoustic Echo is a major stumbling factor in maintaining quality and intelligibility of speech signal. Poor quality of speaker and low cost amplifier in typical mobile equipment introduce the non-linearity in the acoustic echo signal. In...
LabVIEW is an application software used in virtual instrumentation (VI). It offers better data acquisition and interfacing with hardware. Haptic technology has vast applications in various fields such as medical, military and other day-to-day life's products, for example, smart phones, video games. In the haptic system, stability and transparency are the key performance issues which are affected by...
Biocryptosystem is an emerging concept in the field of template security because it has advantages of cryptography and biometrics. Rather than randomly generating a cryptography key, fuzzy extractor is used to extract a cryptography key from biometric template itself. This paper proposes a multitrait fingervein and iris robust key extractor biocryptosystem which provides authentication and security...
Local force distribution in motors has been widely studied to analyze the origins of torque ripple and vibration. In most cases, there are multiple force waves which need to be identified and analyzed individually. While separation of these forces and the corresponding fields is simpler if the core is below saturation limits, special techniques are required if significant portion of the core is in...
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) gives the loaded advantages of ad hoc and flexible network deployments in an uncontrolled environments. Revealing of any information communicated is not desirable in any mission critical applications. There are methods to provide securities for these applications by implementing cryptographic methods. However due to their resource constraint nature, public-key cryptography...
Over the past decade, a wide-ranging collection of network functions in middleboxes has been used to accommodate the needs of network users. Although the use of general-purpose processors has been shown to be feasible for this purpose, the serial nature of microprocessors limits network functional virtualization (NFV) performance. In this paper, we describe a new heterogeneous hardware-software approach...
Many FPGA computations, including block ciphers, require repetitive loop operations that are difficult to parallelize. Sequential loop implementation leads to significant clock powerwhile loop unrolling can lead to significant glitch power. In thispaper, we provide a low overhead approach to unroll blockciphers and other loops in low-cost FPGAs to reduce energyconsumption. A latch-based glitch filter...
Frozen Shoulder, also known as Adhesive Capsulitis ceases the mobilization of internal rotators of the shoulder joints. This paper proposes an easy-to-use intervention for frozen shoulder rehabilitation using low-cost markerless depth camera Microsoft Kinect. Our system consists two applications developed with Kinect Software Development Kit 2.0 (SDK). One application is shoulder angle measurement...
Communication aid helps people with disability to communicate with the individuals around them. This paper presents design and development of an assistive user interface application for patients having communication disability like Stroke, Cerebral Palsy (CP), Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). Our application is integrated with low-cost Tobii EyeX eye tracker. The eye tracker tracks the user's...
With the exponential growth in mobile data traffic, the number of content access requests is increasing and hence, the load on the LTE eNodeB (eNB) is also increasing. In such a scenario, transferring data files using Device- to-Device (D2D) communication helps in offloading cellular data traffic. In order to reduce the load on eNB, Centralized Area Controller (CAC) has been proposed earlier to take...
The alarming statistics of Diabetes Mellitus (DM) Type 2 as the most common and prevalent disease in India and world over [1] has fuelled research in the direction of non-invasive and continuous monitoring of this disease. This paper describes a demonstration of an inexpensive mobile-phone based android application which can collect Photoplethysmogram (PPG) from fingertip via built-in camera and flash...
In the age of modernization, the demand of energy is increasing day by day. Petroleum based fuel is the main source of energy. Petroleum reserves are very limited so alternative fuel like biodiesel, has great prospects to be explored. Biodiesel is considered as best substitute of diesel fuel. In present research article waste cooking oil is used as a feedstock for the production of biodiesel. Ultrasonic...
It is often noticed in the public transportation that the conductors face a lot of problem in collecting the fare from the passengers. Money handling and returning the excess amount to the passengers after deducting the fare amount, inspecting a travel pass becomes complex when the congestion that is the number of passengers are very large in numbers is high and this complexity cannot be managed effectively...
Realization of an application using Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) using Sensor Nodes (SNs) brings in profound advantages of ad-hoc and flexible network deployments. Implementation of these networks face immense challenges due to short wireless range; along with limited power, storage & computational capabilities of SNs. Also, due to the tiny physical attributes of the SNs in WSNs, they are prone...
Many architects believe that major improvements in cost-energy-performance must now come from domain-specific hardware. This paper evaluates a custom ASIC-called a Tensor Processing Unit (TPU)-deployed in datacenters since 2015 that accelerates the inference phase of neural networks (NN). The heart of the TPU is a 65,536 8-bit MAC matrix multiply unit that offers a peak throughput of 92 TeraOps/second...

Recent research has shown that the integration of a custom-silicon network-on-chip (NoC) into an FPGA fabric can significantly help on-chip communication bandwidth. Although not appropriate for all communication, FPGA hard NoCs provide a scalable infrastructure that will increase in importance as FPGA sizes increase. To date, most FPGA hard NoC implementation has focused on packet-switched routing...
