In this paper, we present a dynamic power management technique for optimizing the use of virtual channels in network on chips. The technique which is called dynamic virtual channels allocation (DVCA) makes use of the traffic conditions and past buffer utilization to dynamically forecast the number of virtual channels that should be active. In this technique, for low(high) traffic loads, a small (large) number of VCs are allocated to the corresponding input channel. This provides us with the ability to reduce the power consumption of the router while maintaining the data communication rate. To assess the efficacy of the proposed method, the network on chip has been simulated using several traffic profiles. The simulation results show that up to 35% reduction in the buffer power consumption and up to 20% savings in the overall router power consumption may be achieved. Finally, the area and power overheads of the technique are negligible.

For several decades, college student retention research has focused on the importance of engaging college students in their higher education environment as a tool for helping them attain their degrees. Student Affairs administrators across the United States have incorporated the idea of engagement in their programs and services to increase student retention. This work in progress paper describes how the College of engineering at the University of Utah has incorporated the concept of engagement into its retention efforts in response to a shortage of engineers in the state. Engagement efforts in this National Science Foundation funded project include participation in outreach teams, facilitating a summer innovation summit, participating in learning community courses, and implementing service learning. The paper focuses on unique elements of the program, incorporating qualitative evaluation data from the first year of the project to describe how lessons learned have shaped second year efforts.

In this paper, we introduce a full use of MPEG-7 audio features for environment recognition from audio for different multimedia applications. Environment recognition from audio files is a growing area of interest, however, compared to other branches of multimedia it is a less researched one. To recognize environment, we utilize total of 17 temporal and spectral MPEG-7 audio low level descriptors as features. The performance is compared with Mel-frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCC) features. Experimental results show a significant improvement of the proposed MPEG-7 based environment recognition over that of the conventional MFCC based features. Zero-crossing rate is appended with the MPEG-7 based feature to yield even better performance. The best performance is achieved with combined MFCC, MPEG-7 and zero crossing features.

Polynomials are one of the most powerful functions that have been used in many fields of mathematics such as curve fitting and regression. Low order polynomials are desired for their smoothness, good local approximation and interpolation. Being smooth, they can be used to locally approximate almost any derivable function. This means that when linear functions fail in approximation (e.g. where the first order Taylor expansion equals zero) polynomial functions can be used in local approximation, such that one can achieve better estimations at extremums. In this paper, application of polynomial kernel functions in locally linear neurofuzzy models is shown. Using polynomial kernels in local models, better local approximations in prediction of chaotic time series such as Mackey-Glass is achieved, and the capability of the neurofuzzy network is enhanced.

Nowadays, in MPSoCs and NoCs, multicast protocol is significantly used for many parallel applications such as cache coherency in distributed shared-memory architectures, clock synchronization, replication, or barrier synchronization. Among several multicast schemes proposed in on chip interconnection networks, path-based multicast scheme has been proven to be more efficient than the tree-based, and unicast-based. In this paper a low distance path-based multicast scheme is proposed. The proposed method takes advantage of the network partitioning, and utilizing of an efficient destination ordering algorithm. The results in performance, and power consumption show that the proposed method outstands the previous on chip path-based multicasting algorithms.
