The butterfly unit is designed using floating-point fused arithmetic units. The fused arithmetic units include two-term dot product unit and add-subtract unit. In these arithmetic units, operations are performed over complex data values. A modified fused floating-point two-term dot product and an enhanced model for the Radix-4 FFT butterfly unit are proposed. The modified fused two-term dot product is designed using Radix-16 booth multiplier. Radix-16 booth multiplier will reduce the switching activities compared to Radix-8 booth multiplier in existing system and also will reduce the area required. The proposed architecture is implemented efficiently for Radix-4 decimation in time(DIT) FFT butterfly with the two floating-point fused arithmetic units. The proposed enhanced architecture is synthesized, implemented, placed and routed on a FPGA device using Xilinx ISE tool. It is observed that the Radix-4 DIT fused floating-point FFT butterfly requires 50.17% less space and 12.16% reduced power compared to the existing methods and the proposed enhanced model requires 49.82% less space on the FPGA device compared to the proposed design. Also, reduced power consumption is addressed by utilizing the reusability technique, which results in 11.42% of power reduction of the enhanced model compared to the proposed design.展开更多

Key Laboratory of Radiological Protection and Nuclear Emergency, China CDC&National Institute for Radiological Protection,Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, Beijing 100088, China)Abstract:This study investigated indoor radon concentrations in modern residential buildings in the Cold Area and Severe Cold Area in China. A total of 19 cities covering 16 provinces were selected with 1, 610 dwellings measured for indoor radon concentration. The arithmetic mean and geometric mean of indoor radon concentration were 68 Bq m-3 and 57 Bq m-3,respectively. It was found that indoor radon concentrations were much higher in the Severe Cold Area than those in the Cold Area.The indoor radon concentrations showed an increasing trend for newly constructed buildings.展开更多

This is due to time evolution of system change, uncertainty of sensor measurements, and real-time requirement of diagnostic inference. To address this problem, two dynamic Bayesian network(DBN) approaches are proposed. One approach prunes the DBN of system, and then uses particle filter(PF) for this pruned DBN(PDBN) to perform online diagnosis. The problem is that estimates from a PF tend to have high variance for small sample sets. Using large sample sets is computationally expensive. The other approach compiles the PDBN into a dynamic arithmetic circuit(DAC) using an offline procedure that is applied only once, and then uses this circuit to provide online diagnosis recursively. This approach leads to the most computational consumption in the offline procedure. The experimental results show that the DAC, compared with the PF for PDBN, not only provides more reliable online diagnosis, but also offers much faster inference.展开更多

The type, structure and maintenance of military intelligence database are discussed. On this condition, a new data-mining arithmetic based on relation intelligence database is presented according to the preference information and the requirement of time limit given by the commander. Furthermore, a simple calculative example is presented to prove the arithmetic with better maneuverability. Lastly, the problem of how to process the intelligence data mined from the intelligence database is discussed.展开更多

The linear predicate functions on a given path was directly used to construct a linear constrain system for input variables. Only when the predicate function is nonlinear, does the linear arithmetic representation need to be computed. If the entire predicate functions on the given path are linear, either the desired test data or the guarantee that the path is infeasible can be gotten from the solution of the constrain system. Otherwise, the iterative refining for the input is required to obtain the desired test data. Theoretical analysis and test results show that the approach is simple and effective, and takes less computation. The scheme can also be used to generate path-based test data for the programs with arrays and loops.展开更多

This scheme is based on the generation of cyclic code polynomials from a characterized polynomials generator G(X). Only full adders / subtractors and shift registers are used in the proposed multiplier and divider hardware. The input data of the multiplier/divider can be processed in parallel or in pipelined without considering carry/borrow delays during the operations. The speed of computation has therefore been greatly improved by approximately a factor of 2. Since most parts of the components can be both used in the multiplier and divider, just one full adder is applied in the multiplier to be replaced by a subtractor in the divider. The structure is therefore tremendously reduced. In addition, this hardware can be incorporated with a cyclic code generator t perform built-in self-test (BIST).展开更多
