A delay-insensitivity verification method is proposed for bit-level pipelined systolic dual-rail threshold logic adders, which achieve speed-up through early and input-incomplete carry output generation and which employ bit-wise completion at pipeline registers. The proposed method simplifies the verification task significantly, regardless of the operand length of the adder, such that analysis of three adjacent systoles for the eight possible early/late carry output generation scenarios is sufficient for detecting the input combinations which violate delay insensitivity. Using this method, structural modifications for re-establishing delay-insensitivity could be devised without sacrificing the speed-up advantages due to early carry generation. The method could also be applied to other pipelined data processing applications in dual-rail threshold logic.

Wave component sampling method for high performance pipelined circuits Sever, Refik; Aşkar, Murat; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2011) In all of the previous pipelining methods such as conventional pipelining, wave pipelining, and mesochronous pipelining, a data wave propagating on the combinational circuit is sampled whenever it arrives to a synchronization stage. In this study, a new wave-pipelining methodology named as Wave Component Sampling Method (WCSM), is proposed. In this method, only the component of a wave, whose maximum and minimum delay difference exceeds the tolerable value, is sampled, and the other components continue to pr...
Application of bit-level pipelining to delay insensitive null convention adders Ismailoglu, A. Neslin; Askar, Murat (2007-05-30) In this study, two asynchronous delay insensitive adder topologies in Null Convention Logic [1] style are adopted for bit-level pipelining: The reduced Null Convention Logic Adder [2] and a Null Convention Carry Save Adder. When pipelined at bit-level, early carry generation feature of both adders violate the requirements of delay insensitivity. To solve this problem, new topologies are proposed. Resultant adders maintain both reliable delay insensitive operation and speedup advantages of early carry genera...
Numerical implementation of magneto-acousto-electrical tomography (MAET) using a linear phased array transducer GÖZÜ, Mehmet Soner; ZENGİN, Reyhan; Gençer, Nevzat Güneri (2018-02-01) In this study, the performance and implementation of magneto-acousto-electrical tomography (MAET) is investigated using a linear phased array (LPA) transducer. The goal of MAET is to image the conductivity distribution in biological bodies. It uses the interaction between ultrasound and a static magnetic field to generate velocity current density distribution inside the body. The resultant voltage due to velocity current density is sensed by surface electrodes attached on the body. In this study, the theory...
Concurrency control in distributed databases through time intervals and short-term locks Halıcı, Uğur (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 1989) A method for concurrency control in distributed database management systems that increases the level of concurrent execution of transactions, called ordering by serialization numbers (OSN), is proposed. The OSN method works in the certifier model and uses time-interval techniques in conjunction with short-term locks to provide serializability and prevent deadlocks. The scheduler is distributed, and the standard transaction execution policy is assumed, that is, the read and write operations are issued contin...
Stabilization of the Fast Multipole Method for Low Frequencies Using Multiple-Precision Arithmetic Karaosmanoglu, Bariscan; Ergül, Özgür Salih (2014-08-23) We stabilize a conventional implementation of the fast multipole method (FMM) for low frequencies using multiple-precision arithmetic (MPA). We show that using MPA is a direct remedy for low-frequency breakdowns of the standard diagonalization, which is prone to numerical errors at short distances with respect to wavelength. By increasing the precision, rounding errors are suppressed until a desired level of accuracy is obtained with plane-wave expansions. As opposed to other approaches in the literature, u...
