Core Subject : Economy,
The centre of gravity of the computer industry is now moving from personal computing into embedded computing with the advent of VLSI system level integration and reconfigurable core in system-on-chip (SoC). Reconfigurable and Embedded systems are increasingly becoming a key technological component of all kinds of complex technical systems, ranging from audio-video-equipment, telephones, vehicles, toys, aircraft, medical diagnostics, pacemakers, climate control systems, manufacturing systems, intelligent power systems, security systems, to weapons etc. The aim of IJRES is to provide a vehicle for academics, industrial professionals, educators and policy makers working in the field to contribute and disseminate innovative and important new work on reconfigurable and embedded systems. The scope of the IJRES addresses the state of the art of all aspects of reconfigurable and embedded computing systems with emphasis on algorithms, circuits, systems, models, compilers, architectures, tools, design methodologies, test and applications.

Abstract

This paper proposes a low-cost architecture to improve the management SPM (Scratch Pad Memory) in dynamic and multitasking modes. In this context, our management strategy SPM based on Programmable Automaton implemented in Xilinx Vertex-5 FPGA is entirely different from prior research works. SPM is generally managed by software (by a strong programming logic or by compilation). But our Programmable Automaton facilitates access to SPM in order to move code or data and liberates space in SPM. After this step, software takes over content management of SPM (what part of code or data should be placed in SPM, locates spaces of Heap and Stack). So the performance of the programs is actually improved thanks to minimization of the access latency at the DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory or Main Memory).

Abstract

Independent mobility is a key component in maintaining the physical and psychosocial health of an individual. Further, for people e having disabled/elderly, independent mobility increases vocational and educational opportunities, reduces dependence on caregivers and family members, and promotes feelings of self-reliance. Psychologically, a decrease in mobility can lead to feelings of emotional loss, anxiety, depression, educed self-esteem, social isolation, stress, and fear of abandonment. Even though the benefits of powered mobility are well documented, the safety issues associated with operation of powered vehicles often prevent clinicians and rehabilitation practitioners from prescribing powered mobility. So we are introducing an intelligent vehicle for disables/elderly people which uses an array of sensors to help with the movement of the vehicle with minimal human interaction. Functionalities of the proposed system are further enhanced using android interface connect to the vehicle via Bluetooth.

Abstract

Electrochemical MEMS seismic sensor is limited by its non-ideality of frequency dependent characteristics hence interface circuits for compensation is necessary. The conventional compensation circuits are limited by high power consumption, bulky external hardware circuitry. In these methods digital circuits are also limited by inherent analog to digital conversion and vice versa which consumes significant power, acquires more size and limits speed.  A Field programmable analog array (FPAA) overcomes these limitations and gives fast, simple and user friendly development platform with less development speed comparable to ASIC. Recently FPAA becoming popular for rapid prototyping. The proposed system presents FPAA (Anadigm AN231E04) based hardware implementation of ANN model. Using this FPAA based compensation circuit, the error in frequency drift have been minimized in the range of 3.68% to about 0.64% as compared to ANN simulated results in the range of 23.07% to 0.99 %. This single neuron consumes of power of 206.62 mW. and has minimum block wise resource utilization.  The proposed hardware uses all analog blocks which remove the requirement of ADC and DAC reducing significant power and size of interface circuit. This work gives the SMART MEMS seismic sensor with reliable output and ANN based intelligent interface circuit implemented in FPAA hardware.

Abstract

This work presents new fabrication technique for micro power-inductors by using metal-embedded SU-8 slab techniques. This techniques used X-ray lithography to fabricate high aspect-ratio LIGA-like micro-structures in form of embedded structure in SU-8 slab and applied for inductor’s winding fabrication with aspect-ratio of 10. Thishigh-aspect ratiostructure can provide very low resistance winding but preserve small form factor and low profile. Inductors were designed as pot-core structures with8 μm-thick permalloy core and 250 μm-thick copper winding. 4-types of inductors were fabricated including 3, 5, 10 and 16 turns in the area of 1.8 mm2 to 9.5 mm2. All inductors have overall heights of 370 μm, measured inductance value in a range of 70 nH to 1.3 μH at 1 MHz and DC resistance value of 30 mΩ to 336 mΩ for 3 turns to 16 turns respectively. From this result, high aspect-ratio inductors show good results including low-resistance, high inductance, and a small form factor as expected.

Abstract

A Tunable Active Inductor (TAI) based Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) for Radio Frequency (RF) applications ranging from 670 MHz - 1.53 GHz is presented. A design of low phase noise and compact VCO is proposed. In order to lower the phase noise of VCO, its RF output power has been improved. The use of low voltage active in-ductor circuit reduces the power dissipation of VCO. The single ended CMOS active inductors with minimum number of transistors are used to consume less die area of VCO circuit. The low power dissipation of the circuit have high efficiency to generate output RF power. A supply independent variable current source tunes the VCO. The post layout design is simulated in Cadence spectreRF using TSMC 180 nm process libraries. The VCO circuit shows the phase noise variation from -124 to  - 126 dBc/Hz and an active area of 0.0049 mm2. The VCO core circuit, excluding output buffers, consumes 10 mW at 1.8 V supply voltage.

Abstract

A Network-on-Chips (NoCs) is rapid promising for an on-chip alternative designed in support of many-core System-on-Chips (SoCs). In spite of this, developing an increased overall performance low latency Network on chip using low area overhead has always been a new challenge. Network on Chips (NoCs) by using mesh and torus interconnection topologies have become widely used because of the easy construction. A torus structure is nearly the same as the mesh structure, however, has very slighter diameter. In this regard, we propose effective router design for Decoupled Resource sharing in a torus topology based on clustering algorithms Based Hierarchical Routing (CABHR) to get better the efficiency of NoC. We show that our approach is provides improved latency and energy consumption, overall performance developments compared to the most distinguished existing routing technique

Abstract

This is a novel research paper provides an optimal solution for object tracking using visual servoing control system with programmable gate array technology to realize the visual controller. The controller takes in account the robot dynamics to generate the joint torques directly for performing the tasks related to object tracking using visual servoing. Also, the notion of dynamic perceptibility provides the capability of the designed system to track desired objects employing direct visual servoing technique. This idea is assimilated in the suggested controller and realized in the programmable gate array. Additionally, this paper grants an ideal control framework for direct visual servoing robots that incorporates dynamic perceptibility features. With the aim of evaluating the proposed FPGA based architecture, the control algorithm is applied to Hardware-in-the-loop simulation (HIL) set up of three degrees of freedom rigid robotic manipulator with three links. Furthermore, different investigations are performed to demonstrate the behavior of the proposed system when a trajectory adjacent to a singularity is attained.
