Communication Interface Generation For HW/SW Architecture In The STARSoC Environment
2006
Mapping the application functionality to software and hardware requires automated methods to specify, generate and optimize the hardware, software, and the interface architectures between them. In this paper, we present a methodology flow to hardware-software communication synthesis for system-on-a-chip (SoC) design through STARSoC (Synthesis Tool for Adaptive and Reconfigurable System-on-a-Chip) tool for rapid prototyping. Our concept consists of a set of hardware and software processes, described in C-code, communicates through the streams channels. This methodology consists in analyzing dependences of data between processes and synthesis a custom architecture to interface it. Firstly, we…
AMCAS: Advanced Methods for the Co-Design of Complex Adaptive Systems
2006
Abstract This work proposes a new approximation to design and program Complex Adaptive Systems (CAS), these systems comprise neural network, intelligent agents, genetic algorithms, support vector machines and artificial intelligence systems in general. Due to the complexity of such systems, it is necessary to build a design environment able to ease the design work, allowing reusability and easy migration to hardware and/or software. Ptolemy II is used as the base system to simulate and evaluate the designs with different Models of Computation so that an optimum decision about the hardware or software implementation platform can be taken.
Pathological voice analysis via digital signal processing
2015
The interest in pathological voice analysis for specific neurological diseases is growing up aiming to offer more Health-care tele monitoring services since new high performing electronic devices are available for the end-user. In this article we show some parameters that can be digitally extracted and analyzed from pathological voices, in order to find a distinctive sign of the Parkinson disease. As a result, we will show a parameter that gives some information about the Parkinson disease characterization, particularly for male patients. We will also discuss about the needed computational cost related to parameters extraction and elaboration, aiming to target a possible tough yet portable …

Optimization of capacitor banks in the Skagerak networks transmission grid
2013
Masteroppgave i fornybar energi ENE500 2013 – Universitetet i Agder, Grimstad Capacitor banks have been widely used in electric power networks. This master thesis presents a study of introducing new capacitor banks into a transmission network. The network comprises two areas at Telemark and Vestfold with voltages levels of 55kV, 66kV and 132kV, owned by Skagerak Nett AS. Capacitor banks improve the electric network in five ways: power factor correction, increased capacity, reduction of losses, voltage support and reactive power support. International standards and regulations regarding capacitor banks usage, as well as technological related considerations, have been explained. Network impro…
European Banking Union and bank risk disclosure: the effects of the Single Supervisory Mechanism
2022
AbstractThis paper provides evidence on the impact of European Banking Union (BU) and the associated Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM) on the risk disclosure practices of European banks. The onset of BU and the associated rules are considered as an exogenous shock that provides the setting for a natural experiment to analyze the effects of the new supervisory arrangements on bank risk disclosure practices. A Difference-in-Differences approach is adopted, building evidence from the disclosure practices of systemically important banks supervised by the European Central Bank (ECB) and other banks supervised by national regulators over the period 2012–2017. The main findings are that bank risk…

Solid state drives (SSDs) implement a log-structured write pattern, where obsolete data remains stored on flash pages until the flash translation layer (FTL) erases them. erase() operations, however, cannot erase a single page, but target entire flash blocks. Since these victim blocks typically store a mix of valid and obsolete pages, FTLs have to copy the valid data to a new block before issuing an erase() operation. This process therefore increases the latencies of concurrent I/Os and reduces the lifetime of flash memory. Data classification schemes identify data pages with similar update frequencies and group them together. FTLs can use this grouping to design garbage collection strategi…
Optimization of Application-Specific L1 Cache Translation Functions of the LEON3 Processor
2020
Reconfigurable caches offer an intriguing opportunity to tailor cache behavior to applications for better run-times and energy consumptions. While one may adapt structural cache parameters such as cache and block sizes, we adapt the memory-address-to-cache-index mapping function to the needs of an application. Using a LEON3 embedded multi-core processor with reconfigurable cache mappings, a metaheuristic search procedure, and Mibench applications, we show in this work how to accurately compare non-deterministic performances of applications and how to use this information to implement an optimization procedure that evolves application-specific cache mappings.
