Fully Redundant Clock Generation and Distribution With Dynamic Oscillator Switchover

This paper describes a fully redundant clock generation and distribution approach with a fully dynamic switchover capability and concurrent repair. It highlights the challenges as the design evolved from a single source, to a "Cold" standby backup, and finally to a fully redundant transparent switchover with no interruption of the...

All metals can turn black

Researchers at the University of Rochester have found a way to change the properties of almost any metal by using a femtosecond laser pulse. This ultra-intense laser blast creates true black metal from copper, gold or zinc by forming nanostructures at the surface of the metal. As these nanostructures capture...

Mopis (dll)

Mopis is a high-quality software synthesizer that combines traditional subtractive synthesis with new technology we call reconstructive synthesis. Mopis uses subtractive synthesis to create the same sounds that analog synths have used for years. The oscillators generate basic waveforms-- sawtooth, square, triangle, and sine waves-- which are processed by Mopis's...

Joint Compensation of OFDM Transmitter and Receiver IQ Imbalance in the Presence of Carrier Frequency Offset

Zero-IF based OFDM transmitters and receivers are gaining a lot of interest because of their potential to enable low-cost, low-power and less bulky terminals. However these systems suffer from In-phase/Quadrature-phase IQ imbalances in the front-end analog processing which may have a huge impact on the performance. The paper also considers...

Synchronization of TCP Flows in Networks With Small DropTail Buffers

A recent fluid-model formulation of an Internet congestion-control problem considers routers with small Droptail buffers. This paper is interested in the oscillatory regime of such networks and considers a topology where two TCP-controlled flows (each regulated by separate edge routers) merge to compete for bandwidth at a common core router....
