Log-based Hardware Transactional Memory (HTM) systems offer an elegant solution to handle speculative data that overflow transactional L1 caches. By keeping the pre-transactional values on a software-resident log, speculative ...

This paper describes a Fault Tolerance System (FTS) implemented in a new self-adaptive hardware architecture. This architecture is based on an array of cells that implements in a distributed way self-adaptive capabilities. ...

The developments of rationally designed binder-free metal chalcogenides decorated flexible electrodes are of paramount importance for advanced energy storage devices. Herein, binder-free patronite (VS4) flower-like ...

This paper proposes a Self-organized Spectrum Assignment strategy in the context of next generation multicell Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access networks. The proposed strategy is able to dynamically find ...

This paper presents a high-bandwidth capacitance estimation and driving circuit especially tailored for its use with MEMS electrostatic actuators. The circuit can be integrated as a part of a system comprising an electrostatic ...

This work presents a semantic model meant to help with the identification and prediction of individuals at risk of social exclusion. The model is based on the self-sufficiency matrix, a tool that evaluates a person's ...

This paper proposes a simple semi-analytical method for designing coil-systems for homogeneous magnetostatic field generation. The homogeneity of the magnetic field and the average magnitude of the magnetic flux density ...

Pipeline free spans may be caused by uneven seabed, by surrounding subsea infrastructure such as pipeline crossings or by erosion processes like seabed scouring. On the seabed, the pipeline is subject to wave and current ...
