Robust and reliable clock tree synthesis

The paper discusses various clock tree synthesis problems related to the robustness in sub-micron design nodes. The topic discussed include the clock polarity assignment problem for addressing the noise in power/ground, clock mesh design and synthesis problem for addressing the variation in clock delays and adjustable buffer delay assignment in order to support multi-voltage mode designs and parameters. The paper talks about the clock tree synthesis and the issues and difficulties faced because of the requirement of clock balancing. There are various parameters to improve the quality of the clock tree. It is important to have a reduced pessimism in the work optimization problems and the proposed techniques with regard to the circuit reliability in deep submicron design technology. The following subsections cover 1) the clock polarity assignment problem for reducing peak current noise on the clock tree. 2) the adjustable delay buffer (ADB) allocation and assignment problem that is useful in the multiple voltage modes design environment.

Cache performance improvement using software-based approach

Cache usage is a common mechanism for increasing the speed and performance of memory access and are widely used from simple microprocessors to the complex multi core-based designs. It is seen that the cache is not well designed for the embedded systems as the performance is based on probability and is not deterministic. It is difficult to guarantee the time a data will be present or absent in the cache memory. So, it becomes difficult for the embedded system to use the ability of cache to increase the performance. Normally, many real-time systems simply switch off the cache technique and use the scheduler algorithm based on the worst time memory access. There is various software stack that provides the advantage of cache time without the limitation that a hardware-based cache offers. The paper talks about the different organization and operations of cache techniques found in generally used processors, signal processing units and microcontrollers.

Chinggis Khan: The conqueror

Chinggis Khan loomed large in the nightmares of medieval Europe and his image haunts the conscience of European and American leaders today as they instigate the return of Mongol troops to the ruins of Baghdad in what some see as a re-run of history. The man who became the myth lives on through a legacy which is very much alive and thriving today in a multitude of conceptions throughout the lands where he and his immediate descendants first established their writ. Beyond his military accomplishments, Chinggis Khan also advanced the Mongol empire in many ways. He decreed the adoption of the Uyghur script as the Mongol empires writing system. He also practiced meritocracy and encouraged religious tolerance in the Mongol Empire, and unified the nomadic tribes of Northeast Asia. Present –day Mongolians regard him as the founding father of Mongolia. Although known for the brutality of his campaigns and considered by many to have been a genocidal ruler, Chinggis Khan is also credited with bringing the Silk Road under the cohesive political environment. This brought communication and trade from North East Asia into Muslim Southwest Asia and Christian Europe, thus expanding the horizons of all three cultural areas.

Ice-cream: Fantasy triggering industrialization: A boon or bane to hearing

Ice cream is defined as “a sweet frozen food that is made from cream or milk products or both and is generally aerated (Beeton, Isabella, 1911). Nowadays, Industrialization is at its peak to beat the fantasy of Ice-cream lovers which catalyzes the recruitment of employees for the Ice-cream factory where the workers are more exposed to low temperature. This study provides a review of latest evidence relating to the understanding of the middle ear infections with effusion, current treatment maneuvers, their constraints, new areas of research, and new strategies for prevention and treatment. 110 workers were interviewed and examined by Otoscopic examination, Pure Tone Audiometry (Air Conduction: 250 Hz – 8 KHz & Bone Conduction: 250 Hz – 4 kHz at Octave and Mid-Octave frequencies) and Immittance Audiometry in a sound-treated room by using the modified Hughson Westlake procedure (Carhart and Jerger, 1959). It was observed that the Severity of Hearing Loss (ranging from mild to moderately severe) increases with increasing years of working experience (5-15 years). Maximum Workers were having a Moderate Conductive Hearing loss from Candy Section and Cold room as the Candy section has High atmospheric pressure & Humid condition and the Cold room had very low temperature i.e.-0.55c (31 F). The workers work more than 15 hours revolving between these two units. The continuous fluctuating exposure of the cold room and the candy section creates an imbalance in the middle ear pressure resulting in frequent episodes of Otitis Media. The present study determines the need of administration of Hearing checkups, Pneumococcal vaccines for prevention for the development of Otitis media, Compulsion for using ear protection devices, and decreasing the working hours for lessening the exposure of temperature and pressure variance (within limits). Providing ear health guidelines to the workers before joining and Organizing Hearing conservation programs.

Strength characteristics of recycled concrete aggregate with addition of steel fibres

We know construction activities demand a significant amount of natural materials in order to produce cement and aggregate. Procurement of these natural materials significantly modifies the natural sources and creates major environmental problems. . Furthermore, sustainable waste management is another major issue faced by countries all over the world. In order to minimize the environmental impact and energy consistency of concrete used for construction facilities, reuse of construction and demolition wastes can be a beneficial way which leads to sustainable engineering approaches to concrete mix design. The recycled concrete aggregate have some properties like the natural aggregates but the strength is less than the natural aggregates. So the strength of concrete made, recycled concrete aggregates is enhanced by addition of some additives. In this study steel fibres are added in concrete with recycled concrete to increase the workability of the concrete at same water cement ratio, in addition to increase in compressive, tensile & flexural strength of the concrete. Keywords:- Recycle Concrete Aggregate, Steel Fibre, Compressive Strength, Split Tensile Strength, Flexural Strength.

AR/VR: Future trends

Augmented Reality (AR) may not be as exciting as a virtual reality roller coaster ride, however the technology is proving itself as a really great tool in our everyday lives. From social media filters, to surgical procedures, AR is apace growing in quality as a result of it brings parts of the virtual world, into our universe, therefore enhancing the items we tend to see, hear, and feel. compared to different reality technologies, increased reality lies within the middle of the mixed reality spectrum; between the real world and also the virtual world. You'll probably ne'er move to Mars, swim with dolphins, run AN Olympic one hundred meters, or sing onstage with the Rolling Stones. however if computer game ever lives up to its promise, you would possibly be able to do of these things—and several more—without even going away your home. Unlike real reality (the actual world in which we live), virtual reality means simulating bits of our world (or completely imaginary worlds) using high-performance computers and sensory equipment, like headsets and gloves. Apart from games and entertainment, it's long been used for training airline pilots and surgeons and for helping scientists to figure out complex problems such as the structure of protein molecules.

Fear of dental pain among students of dental colleges in Lucknow city, Uttar Pradesh

Dental fear is a normal emotional reaction to one or more specific threatening stimuli in the dental situation. Fear of pain is an important issue in the practice of dentistry because it interferes with both, the provision and the receipt of dental care. The present study was conducted to assess fear of dental pain among students of dental colleges in Lucknow city. A cross-sectional study was undertaken to assess the fear of dental pain among undergraduate dental students. A self administered questionnaire was used to obtain the data. The questionnaire consisted of two parts. Part one consisted of basic demographic data of the subjects. Part two was a modified version of fear of dental pain (FDP) questionnaire.6 Fear of dental pain questionnaire is a self-administered questionnaire measuring pain-related fear to a variety of painful stimuli during routine dental treatment. It consisted of a set of 18 questions related to routine dental treatment. Among 1050 subjects majority 680(64.8%) were females and 370(35.2) were males. The highest score was for fear of being drilled in the jaw bone (2.11±1.24) and lowest was for fear to get the filling of molar teeth done (0.94±1.13). The fear score was observed to be higher among male (1.70±0.74) students compared with females (1.44±0.55) and the difference was significant (p=0.0001). The post-doc comparison tests revealed that the fear score was significantly higher among the students of 1st year (1.64±0.68). Dental fear is a major concern that should be dealt with and managed. Dental students, especially in 1st year had more fear than 4th year students. Male dental students had more fear than female dental students. “Exposure therapy” is recommended for the junior students for the exposure of feared objects to reduce the fear gap between the students of different years.
