A review of Mobile Applications: Architecture, Design, and Development by Valentino Lee, Heather Schneider, and Robbie Schell.

A new pipelined systolic array-based (PSA) architecture for matrix inversion is proposed. The pipelined systolic array (PSA) architecture is suitable for FPGA implementations as it efficiently uses available resources of an FPGA. It is scalable for different ...

We demonstrate a novel Opto-VLSI tunable fiber ring laser structure in which an Opto-VLSI processor driven by steering phase holograms dynamically selects the lasing wavelengths. A proof-of-concept tunable fiber ring laser which has a wavelength tuning ...

Extensible processors allow addition of application-specific custom instructions to the core instruction set architecture. However, it is computationally expensive to automatically select the optimal set of custom instructions. Therefore, heuristic ...

Dynamic and partial reconfiguration of FPGAs enables systems to adapt to changing demands. This paper concentrates on how to take into account specificities of partially reconfigurable components during the high level Adequation Algorithm Architecture ...

TiltType is a novel text entry technique for mobile devices. To enter a character, the user tilts the device and presses one or more buttons. The character chosen depends on the button pressed, the direction of tilt, and the angle of tilt. TiltType consumes ...

Predicting the location of a mobile wireless user is an inherently interesting and challenging problem. Location prediction has received increasing interest over the past decade, driven by applications in location management, call admission control, ...

Integrating wireless LAN (WLAN) techniques with the third generation cellular networks has become a promising way to improve the performance of wireless systems. As WLANs play an important role in such heterogeneous systems, the performance of WLANs ...

In this paper two novel single-ended-input fully-balanced-output circuits (SFC), namely unbuffered and buffered SFCs, are proposed for input interface to fully balanced signal processing systems. The unbuffered SFC overcomes the drawback of uncontrollable ...

The many-to-one communication paradigm is extremely relevant in the emerging contexts of hybrid wireless networks as well as data gathering sensor networks. In this model of communication the point of data-convergence (base-station) becomes a bottleneck, ...

Software pipelining can generate efficient schedules for loop by overlapping the execution of operations from different iterations in order to exploit maximum Instruction Level Parallelism (ILP). Code optimization can decrease total number of calculations ...

We present a routability-driven top-down clustering technique for area and power reduction in clustered FPGAs. This technique is based on a multilevel partitioning approach. It leads to better device utilization, savings in area, and reduction in power ...

Abstract¿Two architectures and VLSI implementations of the AES Proposal, Rijndael, are presented in this paper. These alternative architectures are operated both for encryption and decryption process. They reduce the required hardware resources and achieve ...
