This paper analyses alternatives for the parallelization of the Simulated Annealing algorithm when applied to the placement of modules in a VLSI circuit considering the use of PVM...
Accurate power estimation is essential for low power digital CMOS circuit design. Power dissipation is input pattern dependent. To obtain an accurate power estimate, a large input...

This report details our development of a computer controlled spotlight with four actuated degrees-of-freedom for pan, tilt, linear movement, and beam focusing. We review the mecha...
Abstract In legged systems, springy legs facilitate gaits with subsequent contact and flight phases. Here, we test whether electrical motors can generate leg behaviors suitable for...
Metabolic P systems, shortly MP systems, are a special class of P systems, introduced for expressing biological metabolism. Their dynamics is computed by metabolic algorithms which...
