We study the Multiple Product Single Facility Stockout Avoidance Problem (SAP). That is the problem of determining, given initial inventories, whether there is a multiple product single facility production schedule that avoids stockouts over a given time horizon. The optimization version of the SAP where stockouts are pnelized linearly is also studied. We call this problem the Weighted Stockout Problem (WSP). Both problems are NP-hard in the strong sense. We develop Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MIP) formulations for both the SAP and the WSP. In addition, several heuristic algorithms are presented and performances are tested using computational experiments. We show that there exist polynomial algorithms for some special cases of the SAP and the WSP. We also present a method to phase into a target cyclic schedule for infinite horizon problems. These can be used as a practical scheduling tool for temporarily overloaded facilities or to reschedule production after a disruption.

In this paper, we combine the Hybrid-Automatic Repeat reQuest (HARQ) algorithm with joint Tx and Rx antenna selection based on the reliability of the individual antennas links. The cyclic redundancy check (CRC) is applied on the data before being encoded using the Turbo encoder. In the receiver the CRC is used to detect errors of each antenna stream and to decide whether a retransmission is required or not. The receiver feeds back the transmitter with the Tx antennas ordering and the acknowledgement of each antenna (ACK or NACK). If the number of ACK antennas is higher than the NACK antennas, then the retransmission takes place from the ACK antennas using the Chase Combining (CC). If the number of the NACK antennas is higher than the ACK antennas then the ACK antennas are used to retransmit the data streams using the CC algorithm and additional NACK antennas are used to retransmit the remaining streams using Incremental Redundancy (IR, i.e. the encoder rate is reduced). Furthermore, the HARQ is used with the I-BLAST (Iterative-BLAST) which grantees a high transmission rate.

In this paper, we discuss a code generation technique for custom transport triggered architecture (TTA) from a high-level language structure. This methodology is implemented by using TTA-based Co-design Environment (TCE) tool. The results show how the scheduler exploits instruction level parallelism in the custom target architecture and source program. Thus, the scheduler generates parallel TTA instructions using lower cycle counts than the sequential scheduling algorithm. Moreover, we take Tensilica tool to make a comparison with TCE. Because of the efficiency of TTA, TCE takes less execution cycles compared to Tensilica configurations. Finally, this paper shows that it requires only 7 cycles to generate the parallel TTA instruction set for implementing Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) applications as an input design, and presents the code generation technique to move complexity from the processor software to hardware architecture. This method can be applicable lots of channel Codecs like CRC and source Codecs like High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC).

This paper presents a method for constructing a pipeline-aware quasi-cyclic irregular repeat accumulate low-density parity-check (PA-QC-IRA-LDPC) codes and efficient rate-1/2 (2016, 1008) PA-QC-IRA-LDPC decoder architecture. A novel pipeline scheduling method is proposed. The proposed methods efficiently reduce the critical path using pipeline without any bit error rate (BER) degradation. The proposed pipeline-aware LDPC decoder provides a significant improvement in terms of throughput, hardware efficiency, and energy efficiency. Synthesis and layout of the proposed architecture is performed using 90-nm CMOS standard cell technology. The proposed architecture shows more than 53% improvement of area efficiency and much better energy efficiency compared to the previously reported architectures.

무선 통신 환경에서 실시간 화상 통신을 위해 제안된 3G-324M 프로토콜은 회선 교환 통신을 사용함으로 인해 제한된 대역폭을 이용해야만 하므로 전송 시 여러 가지 제약이 발생하게 된다. 특히 송수신의 스케줄링을 효율적으로 하지 못할 경우 H.223 프로토콜에서 매 타임 슬롯마다 전송 가능한 최대 크기의 데이터를 전송 버퍼에 채워주지 못해 전송 지연 시간이 발생하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제들을 해결하기 위한 통신 스케줄링 기법을 제시한다. 이 통신 스케줄링 기법은 화상 프레임의 종류에 따라 크기가 크게 변한다는 사실에 기초해 H.223 프로토콜의 실행 비율을 임시적으로 증가시켜 지연시간이 늘어나는 것을 최소화하고 이로 인해 내부 버퍼 사용량을 줄일 수 있도록 한다. 또 수신 버퍼에 처리해야 할 데이터가 많은 경우, 임시로 H.223 프로토콜의 실행 비율을 증가시켜 불필요한 수신 지연 시간이 발생하지 않도록 한다. 실험은 내부 버퍼의 사용량은 제안한 통신 스케줄링 기법이 다른 통신 스케줄링 기법들에 비해 효율적으로 관리 되며 패킷의 손실률, 수신 단말기에서의 지연이 줄어드는 것을 보여준다.
