Usually, after properly biasing an analog circuit we need to linearize its transistors in order to linearize the entire circuit for performance analysis and design. This linearization is done through modeling of devices, which is becoming more and more complicated as the electronic technology advances. This is not of course a major issue for circuit…

Data deduplication technology is used to improve the spatial efficiency of cloud storage. This technology is used for storing data on a cloud and omitting data uploading if the data are already present. However, various security threats may occur during the deduplication process. These security threats include poison attacks and user identity exposure through ownership.…

This paper is an extension of work originally presented in the 19th International Conference on Computer Supported Education and Information Technology.

Digitalization changes the way people work to a considerable extent. It alters business models and process organizations of whole industries. The ensuing market dynamics and faster innovation cycles cause an increase in complexity. In this article, the interconnection of digitalization and complexity in work systems is analyzed. For this purpose, a framework for comparing relevant…

Fifth generation of mobile networks (5G) comes to cope with the context of the new mobile telecommunications era. Edge computing is a new collaborative technology under standardization utilizing end-user devices or near-end-user edge devices to operate processing, communication, or control operations. The achievement of efficient error control is a very critical aspect in the successful…

This work presents new pipeline-parallel, generic and configurable parallel hardware architectures for the Direct/Inverse Wavelet Packet Transform (DWPT/IDWPT) independent of any specific family of wavelets, implemented in FPGA technology using a parallel architecture of direct FIR filter. We propose in the following paper, new P-parallel structures for the DWPT and IDWPT transforms based on the…

Currently, synchronous digital circuits (SDC) may require certain design conditions, such as power consumption, robustness, performance, etc. These design conditions are more difficult to satisfy when SDC are implemented in VLSI (Very Large Scale Integration) technology and in the deep-sub-micron MOS (DSM-MOS) technology. The asynchronous design style has properties that serve as an alternative to…

This paper is an extension of work originally presented at the Convention of Central America and Panama XXX VII- The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers -2017. We have extended our previous work by presenting the initial results of how social technologies in particular wikis has the potential for Information Technology support of a cooperative…

In this article, a new method to extract the RLC parameters from the structure of a Rotating Traveling Wave Oscillator (RTWO) is described.
