By using a semiconductor optical amplifier and a cross-phase modulation wavelength converter, fundamental all-optical logic gates including NOT, AND, NOR, XOR, and XNOR have been newly proposed and implemented. Realization of these all-optical logic gates will bring up not only all-optical networks but also all-optical computing and signal processing.

We have designed a high speed and low power 16bit-ELM adder with variable-sized cells uitlizing the fact that the logic depth of lower bit position is less than that of the higher bit position int he conventional ELM architecture. As a result of HSPICE simulation with 0.8.mu.m single-poly double-metal LG CMOS process parameter, out 16bit-ELM adder with variable-sized cells shows the reduction of power-delay-product, which is less than that of the conventional 16bit-ELM adder with reference-sized cells by 19.3%. We optimized the desin with various logic styles including static CMOs, pass-transistor logic and Wang's XOR/XNOR gate. Maximum delay path of an ELM adder depends on the implementation method of S cells and their logic style.

In this paper, we propose, analyze and simulate the performances of some new plasmonic logic gates in two dimensional plasmonic waveguides with nanodisk resonators, using the numerical method of finite difference time domain (FDTD). These gates, including XOR, XNOR, NAND, and NOT, can provide the highly integrated optical logic circuits. Also, by cascading and combining these basic logic gates, any logic operation can be realized. These devices can be utilized significantly in optical processing and telecommunication devices.

A full adders is an important component in applications of digital signal processors and microprocessors. Thus it is imperative to improve the power dissipation and operating speed for designing a full adder. We propose a new adder with modified version of conventional static CMOS and pass transistor logic. The carry-out generation circuit of the proposed full adder is different from the conventional XOR-XNOR structure. The output Cout of module III is generated from input A, B and Cin directly without passing through module I as in conventional structure. Thus output Cout is faster by reducing operation step. The proposed module III uses the static CMOS logic style, which results full-swing operation and good driving capability. The proposed 1bit full adder has the advantages over the conventional static CMOS, CPL, TGA, TFA, HPSC, 14T, and TSAC logic. The delay time is improved by 4.3% comparing to the best value known. PDP(power delay product) is improved by 9.8% comparing to the best value. Simulation has been carried out using a $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS design rule for simulation purposes. The physical design has been verified using HSPICE.

In this paper, a novel low power full adder circuit comprising only 10 transistors is proposed. The circuit is based on the six -transistor CMOS XOR circuit, which generates both XOR and XNOR signals and pass transistors. This adder circuit provides a good low power characteristics due to the smaller number of transistors and the elimination of short circuit current paths. Layouts have been carried out using a 0.65 ${\mu}m$ ASIC design rule for evaluation purposes. The physical design has been evaluated using HSPICE at 25MHz to 50MHz. The proposed circuit has been used to build 2bit and 8bit ripple carry adders, which are used for evaluation of power consumption, time delay and rise and fall time. The proposed circuit shows substantially improved power consumption characteristics, about 70% lower than transmission gate full adder (TFA), and 60% lower than a design using 14 transistors (TR14). Delay and signal rise and fall time are also far shorter than other conventional designs such as TFA and TR14.

In this paper a new architecture of 24-bit two's complement adder is designed by using RB(Redundant Binary) arithmetic which has the advantage of CPF(Carry-Propagation-Free). A MPPL(Modified PPL) XOR/XNOR gate is applied to improve a TC2RB(Two's Complement to RB SUM converter) speed and to reduce the number of transistors, and we proposed two types adder which used a fast RB2TC(RB SUM to Two's Complement converter). The property of two types adder is followings. The improvement of TYPE 1 adder speed is archived through the use of VGS(Variable Group Select) method and TYPE 2 adder is through the use of a 64-bit GCG(Group Change bit Generator) circuit and a 8-bit TYPE 1 adder. For 64-bit, TYPE 1 adder can be expected speed improvement of 23.5%, 25.7% comparing with the CLA and CSA, and TYPE 2 adder can be expected 41.2%, 45.9% respectively. The propagation delay of designed 24-bit TYPE 1 adder is 1.4ns and TYPE 2 adder is 1.2ns. The implementation is highly regular with repeated modules and is very well suited for microprocessor systems and fast DSP units.

Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) cover all the applications involving the use of Evolutionary Computation in electronic system design. It is largely applied to complex optimization problems. EAs introduce a new idea for automatic design of electronic systems; instead of imagine model, ions, and conventional techniques, it uses search algorithm to design a circuit. In this paper, a method for automatic optimization of the digital circuit design method has been introduced. This method is based on randomized search techniques mimicking natural genetic evolution. The proposed method is an iterative procedure that consists of a constant-size population of individuals, each one encoding a possible solution in a given problem space. The structure of the circuit is encoded into a one-dimensional genotype as represented by a finite string of bits. A number of bit strings is used to represent the wires connection between the level and 7 types of possible logic gates; XOR, XNOR, NAND, NOR, AND, OR, NOT 1, and NOT 2. The structure of gates are arranged in an $m{\times}n$ matrix form in which m is the number of input variables.

In this paper, we analyze the performance degradation of previous 1-Bit convolutional neural network method and introduce ways to mitigate it. Previous work applies 32-Bit operation to first and last layers. But our method applies 32-Bit operation to second layer too. We also show that nonlinear activation function can be removed after binarizing inputs and weights. In order to verify the method proposed in this paper, we experiment the object detection neural network for korean license plate detection. Our method results in 96.1% accuracy, but the existing method results in 74% accuracy.
