Design and Analysis of a Novel Low Complexity and Low Power Ping Lock Arbiter by using EGDI based CMOS Technique

Network-on-chip (NoC) provides solution to overcome the complications of the on-chip interconnect architecture in multi-core systems. It mainly consists of router, links and network interface. An essential component of on-chip router is an arbiter that significantly impacts the performance of the router. The arbiter should provide fast and fair arbitration when it is placed in Critical Path Delay (CPD) systems. The main aim of this research work is to design a novel arbiter for an effective network scheduler in complex real time applications. At the same time resource allocation and power consumption should be very low. Previously, a novel gate level Ping Lock Arbiter (PLA) is designed to overcome the limited fair arbitration in Improved Ping Pong Arbiter (IPPA) with less delay. But the chip size and power consumption are very high. To overcome this problem, an Effective Gate Diffusion Input (EGDI) logic based CMOS scheme is used to design a novel Compact Ping Lock Arbiter (CPLA).  The proposed CPLA is compared with the existing PLA based on static CMOS scheme. The comparison between the conventional and proposed arbiter is carried out to analyze the area, delay and power by using Tanner Tool 14.1 with 250nm and 45nm. The results show that the proposed NPLA achieves low power and consumes less than the existing ping lock arbiter

The future of North American trade policy: lessons from NAFTA

This repository item contains a single issue of the Pardee Center Task Force Reports, a publication series that began publishing in 2009 by the Boston University Frederick S. Pardee Center for the Study of the Longer-Range Future.This Task Force Report written by an international group of trade policy experts calls for significant reforms to address adverse economic, environmental, labor and societal impacts created by the 1994 North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). The report is intended to contribute to the discussion and decisions stemming from ongoing reviews of proposed reforms to NAFTA as well as to help shape future trade agreements. It offers detailed proposals on topics including services, manufacturing, agriculture, investment, intellectual property, labor, environment, and migration. Fifteen years after NAFTA was enacted, there is widespread agreement that the trade treaty among the United States, Canada and Mexico has fallen short of its stated goals. While proponents credit the agreement with stimulating the flow of goods, services, and investment among the North American countries, critics in all three countries argue that this has not brought improvements in the standards of living of most people. Rather than triggering a convergence across the three nations, NAFTA has accentuated the economic and regulatory asymmetries that had existed among the three countries. [TRUNCATED

Weightless Environment Training Facility (WETF) materials coating evaluation, volume 3

This volume consists of Appendices C, D, E, and F to the report on the Weightless Environment Training Facility Materials Coating Evaluation project. The project selected 10 coating systems to be evaluated in six separate exposure environments, and subject to three tests for physical properties. Appendix C is the photographic appendix of the test panels. Appendix D details methods and procedures. Appendix E lists application equipment costs. Appendix F is a compilation of the solicitation of the candidate coating systems

Business and Human Rights in Cambodia 2021 : A compendium of instruments and materials, volumes I-III

The compendium is an aid for lecturers to prepare classes and seminars on business and human rights in Cambodia. Teachers from several academic disciplines – law, management, political science, social science, and media – will find carefully selected materials and numerous aspects on which to build a rewarding classroom experience. The compendium has three parts. Part I covers the policy frameworks for ‘human rights and business’. Part II is a deep dive into the systems companies set up to ensure responsible business conduct. Part III further contextualizes what the corporate responsibility entails regarding specific human rights

Advanced flight control system study

The architecture, requirements, and system elements of an ultrareliable, advanced flight control system are described. The basic criteria are functional reliability of 10 to the minus 10 power/hour of flight and only 6 month scheduled maintenance. A distributed system architecture is described, including a multiplexed communication system, reliable bus controller, the use of skewed sensor arrays, and actuator interfaces. Test bed and flight evaluation program are proposed

Contracts, Practice and Law in Trade with China: Some Observations

Erh Ii gou ( two mile gully ) is the street in Peking on which stands the large import building , the headquarters of the Chinese state trade corporations which purchase machinery, equipment, chemicals and technology from abroad. The punning reference to the protracted length of negotiations there is relevant to this piece, because the writer spent seven weeks between mid-January and mid-April, 1978 participating in negotiations in Peking; the long stay provided an opportunity to test generalizations and to write with some immediacy. This essay describes the process of negotiating sales of capital goods to the Chinese corporations and the contracts which embody such transactions, as seen by this writer in mid-1978

The Political Economy of Commercial Arbitration: The Corporatization of U.S. Arbitration Law

Arbitration is not just about economic and business efficiency, as its advocates argue, reducing the costs and delays associated with litigation. As I shall illustrate in this thesis, corporations have used arbitration reform as a means of restructuring the regulatory state in ways that suit their interests. Drawing on the legislative history of the Federal Arbitration Act, as well as on documents detailing the rise of the corporate arbitration lobby, I show how corporations have used arbitration reform as a means of enacting conservative political change by non-political means. This corporate legal mobilization is animated by a libertarian conception of private law in which government plays a minimal role in the oversight of business disputes. The dissertation traces the development of this corporate arbitration movement and shows how it is actively reshaping arbitration law to protect the freedom of enterprise from outward challenge or encroachment, with important implications for the states ability to monitor and govern corporate behavior
