The VLSI design of a single chip Reed-Solomon encoder
A design for a single chip implementation of a Reed-Solomon encoder is presented. The architecture that leads to this single VLSI chip design makes use of a bit serial finite field multiplication algorithm
A VLSI single chip (255,223) Reed-Solomon encoder with interleaver
A single-chip implementation of a Reed-Solomon encoder with interleaving capability is described. The code used was adapted by the CCSDS (Consulative Committee on Space Data Systems). It forms the outer code of the NASA standard concatenated coding system which includes a convolutional inner code of rate 1/2 and constraint length 7. The architecture, leading to this single VLSI chip design, makes use of a bit-serial finite field multiplication algorithm due to E.R. Berlekamp
On the VLSI design of a pipeline Reed-Solomon decoder using systolic arrays
A new very large scale integration (VLSI) design of a pipeline Reed-Solomon decoder is presented. The transform decoding technique used in a previous article is replaced by a time domain algorithm through a detailed comparison of their VLSI implementations. A new architecture that implements the time domain algorithm permits efficient pipeline processing with reduced circuitry. Erasure correction capability is also incorporated with little additional complexity. By using a multiplexing technique, a new implementation of Euclid's algorithm maintains the throughput rate with less circuitry. Such improvements result in both enhanced capability and significant reduction in silicon area
Optimized design of universal two-qubit gates
We construct optimized implementations of the CNOT and other universal
two-qubit gates that, unlike many of the previously proposed protocols, are
carried out in a single step. The new protocols require tunable inter-qubit
couplings but, in return, show a significant improvements in the quality of
gate operations. Our optimization procedure can be further extended to the
combinations of elementary two-qubit as well as irreducible many-qubit gates.Comment: 6 pages, 2 figure

Exploring approximations to the GW self-energy ionic gradients
The accuracy of the many-body perturbation theory GW formalism to calculate
electron-phonon coupling matrix elements has been recently demonstrated in the
case of a few important systems. However, the related computational costs are
high and thus represent strong limitations to its widespread application. In
the present study, we explore two less demanding alternatives for the
calculation of electron-phonon coupling matrix elements on the many-body
perturbation theory level. Namely, we test the accuracy of the static
Coulomb-hole plus screened-exchange (COHSEX) approximation and further of the
constant screening approach, where variations of the screened Coulomb potential
W upon small changes of the atomic positions along the vibrational eigenmodes
are neglected. We find this latter approximation to be the most reliable,
whereas the static COHSEX ansatz leads to substantial errors. Our conclusions
are validated in a few paradigmatic cases: diamond, graphene and the C60
fullerene. These findings open the way for combining the present many-body
perturbation approach with efficient linear-response theories
