FPGA Based Implementation of Distributed Minority and Majority Voting Based Redundancy for Mission and Safety-Critical Applications
P Balasubramanian, N E Mastorakis
Electronic circuits and systems used in mission and safety-critical applications usually employ redundancy in the design to overcome arbitrary fault(s) or failure(s) and guarantee…
The Virtual Electromagnetic Interaction between Digital Images for Image Matching with Shifting Transformation
Xiaodong Zhuang, N. E. Mastorakis
A novel way of matching two images with shifting transformation is studied. The approach is based on the presentation of the virtual edge current in images, and also the study of v…
A Model of Virtual Carrier Immigration in Digital Images for Region Segmentation
Xiaodong Zhuang, N. E. Mastorakis
A novel model for image segmentation is proposed, which is inspired by the carrier immigration mechanism in physical P-N junction. The carrier diffusing and drifting are simulated…
The Analysis of Local Motion and Deformation in Image Sequences Inspired by Physical Electromagnetic Interaction
Xiaodong Zhuang, N. E. Mastorakis
In order to analyze the moving and deforming of the objects in image sequence, a novel way is presented to analyze the local changes of object edges between two related images (suc…
Matching of Images with Rotation Transformation Based on the Virtual Electromagnetic Interaction
Xiaodong Zhuang, N. E. Mastorakis
A novel approach of image matching for rotating transformation is presented and studied. The approach is inspired by electromagnetic interaction force between physical currents. Th…
Image Segmentation Based on the Self-Balancing Mechanism in Virtual 3D Elastic Mesh
Xiaodong Zhuang, N. E. Mastorakis, Jieru Chi +1
In this paper, a novel model of 3D elastic mesh is presented for image segmentation. The model is inspired by stress and strain in physical elastic objects, while the repulsive for…
System Reliability, Fault Tolerance and Design Metrics Tradeoffs in the Distributed Minority and Majority Voting Based Redundancy Scheme
P Balasubramanian
The distributed minority and majority voting based redundancy (DMMR) scheme was recently proposed as an efficient alternative to the conventional N-modular redundancy (NMR) scheme…
Design of Synchronous Section-Carry Based Carry Lookahead Adders with Improved Figure of Merit
P Balasubramanian
The section-carry based carry lookahead adder (SCBCLA) architecture was proposed as an efficient alternative to the conventional carry lookahead adder (CCLA) architecture for the p…
A Fault Tolerance Improved Majority Voter for TMR System Architectures
P Balasubramanian, K Prasad
For digital system designs, triple modular redundancy (TMR), which is a 3-tuple version of N-modular redundancy is widely preferred for many mission-control and safety-critical app…
An Asynchronous Early Output Full Adder and a Relative-Timed Ripple Carry Adder
P Balasubramanian
This article presents the design of a new asynchronous early output full adder which when cascaded leads to a relative-timed ripple carry adder (RCA). The relative-timed RCA requir…
Power, Delay and Area Comparisons of Majority Voters relevant to TMR Architectures
P Balasubramanian, N E Mastorakis
N-modular redundancy (NMR) is commonly used to enhance the fault tolerance of a circuit/system, when subject to a fault-inducing environment such as in space or military systems, w…
Global versus Local Weak-Indication Self-Timed Function Blocks - A Comparative Analysis
P Balasubramanian, N E Mastorakis
This paper analyzes the merits and demerits of global weak-indication self-timed function blocks versus local weak-indication self-timed function blocks, implemented using a delay-…
ASIC-based Implementation of Synchronous Section-Carry Based Carry Lookahead Adders
P Balasubramanian, N E Mastorakis
The section-carry based carry lookahead adder (SCBCLA) topology was proposed as an improved high-speed alternative to the conventional carry lookahead adder (CCLA) topology in prev…
