Nowadays variable delay arithmetic units have been used for implementing a datapath of\ulcorner target system in pursuit of performance improvement. However. adoption of variable delay arithmetic units requires modification of a typical synchronous control units design methodology. There is a representative approach, which is called a monolithic approach. Although its results are good, its proposed methodology may cause critical problems in the aspects of area and performance with the size increase of initial system specifications. In order to solve this problems, a distributed approach is suggested. Experimental results show that the Proposed method can guarantee original performance of an initial system specification with minimized additional area increase.

This paper proposes Galois Field Arithmetic Unit(GFAU) whose structure does addition, multiplication and division in GF(2m). GFAU can execute maximum two additions, or two multiplications, or one addition and one multiplication. The base architecture of this GFAU is a divider based on modified Euclid's algorithm. The divider was modified to enable multiplication and addition, and the modified divider with the control logic became GFAU. The GFAU for GF(2193) was implemented with Verilog HDL with top-down methodology, and it was improved and verified by a cycle-based simulator written in C-language. The verified model was synthesized with Samsung 0.35um, 3.3V CMOS standard cell library, and it operates at 104.7MHz in the worst case of 3.0V, 85$^{\circ}C$, and it has about 25,889 gates.

Crypto-systems have difficulties in designing hardware due to the various standards. We propose a programmable and configurable architecture for cryptography coprocessors to accommodate various crypto-systems. The proposed architecture has a 32 bit I/O interface and internal bus width, and consists of a programmable finite field arithmetic unit, an input/output unit, a register file, and a control unit. The crypto-system is determined by the micro-codes in memory of the control unit, and is configured by programming the micro-codes. The coprocessor has a modular structure so that the arithmetic unit can be replaced if a substitute has an appropriate 32 bit I/O interface. It can be used in many crypto-systems by re-programming the micro-codes for corresponding crypto-system or by replacing operation units. We implement an elliptic curve crypto-processor using the proposed architecture and compare it with other crypto-processors

Floating point unit system follows IEEE 754 Standard. In this paper, we used 1's complement system instead of 2's complement to practice the arithmetic. By converting we enable this system to compute simply and fast. To improve the speed of newly design adder, we used a transformation Carry selector adder of 53 bits. In paper, a design of floating point unit high efficiency micro processor system about for high speed.

In this paper, we propose a new frame prediction filtering technique and a hardware(H/W) architecture for scalable video coding. We try to evaluate MCTF(motion compensated temporal filtering) and hierarchical B-picture which are a technique for eliminate correlation between video frames. Since the techniques correspond to non-causal system in time, these have fundamental defects which are long latency time and large size of frame buffer. We propose a new architecture to be efficiently implemented by reconfiguring non-causal system to causal system. We use the property of a repetitive arithmetic and propose a new frame prediction filtering cell(FPFC). By expanding FPFC we reconfigure the whole arithmetic architecture. After the operational sequence of arithmetic is analyzed in detail and the causality is imposed to implement in hardware, the unit cell is optimized. A new FPFC kernel was organized as simple as possible by repeatedly arranging the unit cells and a FPFC processor is realized for scalable video coding.

Arithmetic operations over finite fields are widely used in coding theory and cryptography. In both of these applications, there is a need to design low complexity finite field arithmetic units. The complexity of such a unit largely depends on how the field elements are represented. Among them, representation of elements using a optimal normal basis is quite attractive. Using an algorithm minimizing the number of 1's of multiplication matrix, in this paper, we propose a multiplier which is time and area efficient over finite fields with optimal normal basis.

This paper proposes a high-performance VLSl architecture using distributed arithmetic for higher-order FIR filters with complex coefficients. For the purpose of realizing high sampling rate with small latency in high-order filters, we apply distributed arithmetic[1］. Moreover, in order to decrease drastically the power dissipation, the structure applying not ROM's but optimum function circuits which we have previously proposed, is utilized［2]［3］. However, this structure increases in the number of adders as compared to the conventional structure applying ROM's. In order to realize a more effective method for further higher-order filter, we propose newly an implementation applying two methods which have large effects on the unit using the adders. First , we propose an implementation applying SFAs(Serial Full Adders) and SFSs(Serial Full Subtractors). Second, we propose a structure applying proposed 4-2 adders. Finally, it is shown that the proposed architecture is an effective way to realize low power dissipation and small latency while the sampling rate is kept constant for further higher-order filters with complex coefficients.

We have developed and tested an RSFQ 4-bit Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) based on half adder cells and de switches. ALU is a core element of a computer processor that performs arithmetic and logic operations on the operands in computer instruction words. The designed ALU had limited operation functions of OR, AND, XOR, and ADD. It had a pipeline structure. We have simulated the circuit by using Josephson circuit simulation tools in order to reduce the timing problem, and confirmed the correct operation of the designed ALU. We used simulation tools of $XIC^{TM},\;WRspice^{TM}$, and Julia. The fabricated 4-bit ALU circuit had a size of $\3000{\ cal}um{\times}1500{\cal}$, and the chip size was $5{\cal} mm{\times}5{\cal}mm$. The test speeds were 1000 kHz and 5 GHz. For high-speed test, we used an eye-diagram technique. Our 4-bit ALU operated correctly up to 5 GHz clock frequency. The chip was tested at the liquid-helium temperature.

The unit load of paddy field was estimated by several methods and compared in this study. Four year field study was conducted at the paddy fields located in Yeongsan river and Sumjin river basins. The unit load was estimated by four methods; (1) averaging field monitored load; (2) NIER (National Institute of Environmental Research) method which use EMC(Event Mean Concentration) and runoff ratio of rainfall groups with rainfall weighting factors; (3)method using EMC determined by best fit probability distribution; (4)method using arithmetic mean EMC and runoff ratio. The result of this study showed that the unit loads of water quality constituents by field monitoring was similar to those of NIER method whereas those by probability distribution(log-normal, gamma) method were less than unit loads of NIER method. The unit loads by arithmetic mean EMC and runoff ratio were larger than those by NIER method. The unit load by NIER method showed higher BOD, COD, SS, lesser T-N, and similar T-P values when compared to unit loads determined by MOE in 1995.

We have designed and simulated an 1-bit ALU (Arithmetic Logic Unit) by using a half adder. An ALU is the part of a computer processor that carries out arithmetic and logic operations on the operands in computer instruction words. The designed ALU had limited operation functions of OR, AND, XOR, and ADD. It had a pipeline structure. We constructed an 1-bit ALU by using only one half adder and three control switches. We designed the control switches in two ways, dc switch and NDRO (Non Destructive Read Out) switch. We used dc switches because they were simple to use. NDRO pulse switches were used because they can be easily controlled by control signals of SET and RESET and show fast response time. The simulation results showed that designed circuits operate correctly and the circuit minimum margins were ＋/-27%. In this work, we used simulation tools of XIC and WRSPICE. The circuit layouts were also performed. The circuits are being fabricated.
