An advanced model-based diagnosis engine

We have developed a new and powerful diagnosis engine that overcomes the limitations of the existing systematic methods of general diagnosis through a two-fold approach. First, we propose a novel and compact reconstruction of the General Diagnosis Engine, one of the most fundamental approaches to model-based diagnoses. We then present a novel algorithmic approach for calculation of minimal diagnosis set.

A novel model-based diagnosis engine: theory and applications

Systematic methods of general diagnosis exist in literature, but they all suffer from two major drawbacks that severely limit their practical applications. In this paper, we propose a two-fold approach to overcome these limitations.

Quantum dots based rad-hard computing and sensors

Quantum Dots (QDs) are solid state structures made of semiconductors or metals that confine a small number of electrons into a small space. The confinement of electrons is achieved by the placement of some insulating material(s) around a central, well conducting region. Thus, they can ve viewed as artificial atoms.

Quantum Dots Based Rad-Hard Computing and Sensors

Quantum Dots (QDs) are solid-state structures made of semiconductors or metals that confine a small number of electrons into a small space. The confinement of electrons is achieved by the placement of some insulating material(s) around a central, well-conducting region. Thus, they can be viewed as artificial atoms. They therefore represent the ultimate limit of the semiconductor device scaling. Additional information is contained in the original extended abstract.

Massively Parallel Solution of Poisson Equation on Coarse Grain MIMD Architectures

In this paper a new algorithm, designated as Fast Invariant Imbedding algorithm, for solution of Poisson equation on vector and massively parallel MIMD architectures is presented. This algorithm achieves the same optimal computational efficiency as other Fast Poisson solvers while offering a much better structure for vector and parallel implementation. Our implementation on the Intel Delta and Paragon shows that a speedup of over two orders of magnitude can be achieved even for moderate size problems.
