In this paper, we propose a combining scheme for partial IR based hybrid ARQ in MIMO systems. The proposed combining scheme is a symbol-level combining scheme for repeatedly transmitted systematic symbols in partial IR based hybrid ARQ. In this paper, it is shown that the proposed combining scheme can also enhance the detection performance of the parity symbols that are newly transmitted in each retransmission. Simulation results show that the proposed combining scheme significantly improves the performance of the partial IR based hybrid ARQ compared to the cases of the conventional bit-level combining scheme, especially with the ZF detection.

The aim of this research is to find an optimal gene set that provides highly accurate multi-class classification with a minimum number of genes. A two-stage procedure is proposed: Based on minimum redundancy and maximum relevance (mRMR) framework, several statistics to rank differential expression genes and K-means clustering to reduce redundancy between genes are used for data filtering procedure. And a particle swarm optimization is modified to select a small subset of informative genes. Two well known multi-class microarray data sets, ALL and SRBCT, are analyzed to indicate the effectiveness of this hybrid method.

When using a higher-order modulation scheme, there are variations in bit-reliability depending on the bit position in a modulation symbol. Variations of bit-reliability in the codeword block lower the decoding performance. Also, the decoding performance increases as the sum of the bit-reliabilities in the codeword block increases. This paper presents a novel hybrid automatic repeat request scheme that increases the sum of the reliabilities of the transmitted bits by lowering the modulation order, and decreases the variations of bit-reliability in the codeword block by preferentially retransmitting bits with low reliability. The proposed scheme outperforms the constellation rearrangement scheme. Furthermore, the proposed scheme also provides a good solution in cases where the size of the retransmission block is smaller than the size of the initial transmission block.

Original binary image can be reconstructed without any distortion by MS(morphological skeleton) image. Though we reduce some points in a MS image, there is no problem to reconstruct original image by it. And then, there are two methods of LMS and GMS which reduce the redundant points of a MS image. The redundancy degree of a GMS image is zero and it is less than that of LMS. And then, GMS image is the best thing of the three kinds of morphological skeleton image to enhance the compression efficienty by the Elias code. But there are continous SKF=1 points in a GMS image whenever using 2 dimensional structureing element. Those points in a GMS image gives rise to a bad compression efficiency. And then, solving this problem, this paper proposes hybrid structuring elements algorithms for binary image compression.

Cooperative hybrid-automatic repeat request (HARQ) protocols, which can exploit the spatial and temporal diversities, have been widely studied. The efficiency of cooperative HARQ protocols is higher than that of cooperative protocols because retransmissions are only performed when necessary. We classify cooperative HARQ protocols as three decode-and-forward-based HARQ (DF-HARQ) protocols and two amplified-and-forward-based HARQ (AF-HARQ) protocols. To compare these protocols and obtain the optimum parameters, two unified frameworks are developed for protocol analysis. Using the frameworks, we can evaluate and compare the maximum throughput and outage probabilities according to the SNR, the relay location, and the delay constraint. From the analysis we can see that the maximum achievable throughput of the DF-HARQ protocols can be much greater than that of the AF-HARQ protocols due to the incremental redundancy transmission at the relay.

Successive Approximation Register (SAR) Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADC) seem to become the hottest ADC architecture during the past decade in implementing energy-efficient high performance ADCs. In this overview, we will review what kind of circuit techniques and architectural advances have contributed to place the SAR ADC architecture at its current position, beginning from a single SAR ADC and moving to various hybrid architectures. At the end of this overview, a recently reported compact and high-speed SAR-Flash ADC is introduced as one design example of SAR-based hybrid ADC architecture.

As many systems depend on electronics, concern for fault tolerance is growing rapidly. For example, a car with its steering controlled by electronics and no mechanical linkage from steering wheel to front tires(steer-by-wire) should be fault tolerant because a failure can come without any warning and its effect is devastating. In order to make system fault tolerant, there has been a body of research mainly from aerospace field. This paper presents the structure of predictive smoothing voter that can filter out most erroneous values and noise. In addition, several numerical simulation results are given where the predictive smoothing voter outperforms well-known average and median voters.

We herein propose a heuristic redundancy selection algorithm that combines resubmission, replication, and checkpointing redundancies to reduce the resiliency overhead in fault-tolerant workflow scheduling. The appropriate combination of these redundancies for workflow tasks is obtained in two consecutive phases. First, to compute the replication vector (number of task replicas), we apportion the set of provisioned resources among concurrently executing tasks according to their needs. Subsequently, we obtain the optimal checkpointing interval for each task as a function of the number of replicas and characteristics of tasks and computational environment. We formulate the problem of obtaining the optimal checkpointing interval for replicated tasks in situations where checkpoint files can be exchanged among computational resources. The results of our simulation experiments, on both randomly generated workflow graphs and real-world applications, demonstrated that both the proposed replication vector computation algorithm and the proposed checkpointing scheme reduced the resiliency overhead.

This paper describes a preliminary study on a modeling technique for control performance evaluation of asynchronous TMR(Triple Modular Redundancy) controller. Hybrid system modeling is applied to TMR controller performance evaluation and mixed logical dynamical system description is used to model the behavior of majority voter in the controller. Windup and bumpless transfer problems in redundancy controls are also mentioned.

This paper proposes an algorithm to reduce the bitrate for transmission of MCP(motion compensated prediction) error signals. Many digital image coders have recently employed hybrid coding schemes which perform motion compensation, DCT transform, quantization, and variable length coding. The variable length coding compresses the quantized DCT coefficient data by removing their statistical redundancy. But some DCT blocks have the interblock statistical redundancy as well as the intrablock one. To utilize both of them, the DCT blocks are classified into the interleaving group and the non-interleaving group. And then each DCT blocks in the interleaving group are is encoded independently, and the DCT blocks in the interleaving group are encoded after interleaving the DCT coefficients. Through the simulations, it is shown that the proposed method outperforms the conventional method in which each DCT block is encoded independently.
