Bounded Model Checking (BMC) is so far considered as the best engine for bug-finding in hardware model checking. Given a bound K, BMC can detect if there is a counterexample to a given temporal property within K steps from the initial state, thus performing a global-style search. Recently, a SAT-based model-checking technique called Complementary Approximate Reachability (CAR) was shown to be complementary to BMC, in the sense that frequently they can solve instances that the other technique cannot, within the same time limit. CAR detects a counterexample gradually with the guidance of an over-approximating state sequence, and performs a local-style search. In this paper, we consider three different ways to combine BMC and CAR. Our experiments show that they all outperform BMC and CAR on their own, and solve instances that cannot be solved by these two techniques. Our findings are based on a comprehensive experimental evaluation using the benchmarks of two hardware model checking competitions.

Synthetic Biology aims to create biological systems from scratch that do not exist in nature. An important method in this context is the engineering of DNA sequences such that cells realize Boolean functions that serve as control mechanisms in biological systems, e.g. in medical or agricultural applications. Libraries of logic gates exist as predefined gene sequences, based on the genetic mechanism of transcriptional regulation. Each individual gate is composed of different biological parts to allow for the differentiation of their output signals. Even gates of the same logic type therefore exhibit different transfer characteristics, i.e. relation from input to output signals. Thus, simulation of the whole network of genetic gates is needed to determine the performance of a genetic circuit. This makes mapping Boolean functions to these libraries much more complicated compared to EDA. Yet, optimal results are desired in the design phase due to high lab implementation costs. In this work, we identify fundamental features of the transfer characteristic of gates based on transcriptional regulation which is widely used in genetic gate technologies. Based on this, we present novel exact (Branch-and-Bound) and heuristic (Branch-and-Bound, Simulated Annealing) algorithms for the problem of technology mapping of genetic circuits and evaluate them using a prominent gate library. In contrast to state-of-the-art tools, all obtained solutions feature a (near) optimal output performance. Our exact method only explores 6.5 % and the heuristics even 0.2 % of the design space.

Diffractive optical neural networks (DONNs) have attracted lots of attention as they bring significant advantages in terms of power efficiency, parallelism, and computational speed compared with conventional deep neural networks (DNNs), which have intrinsic limitations when implemented on digital platforms. However, inversely mapping algorithm-trained physical model parameters onto real-world optical devices with discrete values is a non-trivial task as existing optical devices have non-unified discrete levels and non-monotonic properties. This work proposes a novel device-to-system hardware-software codesign framework, which enables efficient physics-aware training of DONNs w.r.t arbitrary experimental measured optical devices across layers. Specifically, Gumbel-Softmax is employed to enable differentiable discrete mapping from real-world device parameters into the forward function of DONNs, where the physical parameters in DONNs can be trained by simply minimizing the loss function of the ML task. The results have demonstrated that our proposed framework offers significant advantages over conventional quantization-based methods, especially with low-precision optical devices. Finally, the proposed algorithm is fully verified with physical experimental optical systems in low-precision settings.

The Vienna Rectifier is an AC-DC converter system with features that allow for a high output voltage and minimal ripple compared to a conventional rectifier that does not draw current from the grid. The main differences between conventional and Vienna rectifiers are harmonics, power factor, and efficiency. The Vienna rectifier reduces grid-side harmonics and improves the power factor. In this research, the current in the Q-axis is controlled to zero so that the power factor of the system is as close to one as possible, and a PI controller is used to create a stable output signal for the system. The result is that the system can produce an output voltage level of 800V and a THD of less than 5%, according to ieee 519-2022 standards. The efficiency of the input signal has been improved, which can reduce the THD of the input as well. The research also tested software designed with C2000 microcontrollers to prove that the designed model can operate in real-life situations.

We address the challenges in achieving optimal Quality of Information (QoI) for non-dedicated vehicular Mobile Crowdsensing (MCS) systems, by utilizing vehicles not originally designed for sensing purposes to provide real-time data while moving around the city. These challenges include the coupled sensing coverage and sensing reliability, as well as the uncertainty and time-varying vehicle status. To tackle these issues, we propose QUEST, a QUality-informed multi-agEnt diSpaTching system, that ensures high sensing coverage and sensing reliability in non-dedicated vehicular MCS. QUEST optimizes QoI by introducing a novel metric called ASQ (aggregated sensing quality), which considers both sensing coverage and sensing reliability jointly. Additionally, we design a mutual-aided truth discovery dispatching method to estimate sensing reliability and improve ASQ under uncertain vehicle statuses. Real-world data from our deployed MCS system in a metropolis is used for evaluation, demonstrating that QUEST achieves up to 26% higher ASQ improvement, leading to a reduction of reconstruction map errors by 32-65% for different reconstruction algorithms.
