Comparison of High and Low Temperature Properties of Dual Modified Asphalt Binders with Polyphosphoric Acid and Polymer Modified Bitumen using Rheological Tests
Abstract: The main objective of this study was to investigate the properties of asphalt binder mixtures at both high and low temperatures. To achieve this, two types of admixtures were selected and combined, resulting in a technology known as dual modified asphalt binders. Extreme temperatures during summer and winter can lead to significant issues such as cracking and rutting in asphalt binder pavement. In order to address these problems, a comprehensive …

Implementation of a 4-Bit Synchronous Counter in SkyWater 130 nm CMOS Technology Using Open-Source EDA Tools
Abstract: As semiconductor technology continues to scale down, the physical layout of integrated circuits has become increasingly critical in determining performance, power consumption, and area efficiency. This paper presents the complete physical design implementation of a 4-bit counter, from Register Transfer Level (RTL) to GDSII, using the SkyWater 130 nm open-source Process Design Kit (PDK) and the OpenLane automated physical design flow. Functional verification of the RTL design was initially performed …

Implementation of Weighted Round Robin Algorithm in Shared Bus Architectures
Abstract: AbstractThe application domain of System-On-Chips (SoC) includes mobile devices, end terminals, multimedia terminals, automotive, set-top-boxes, games, processors etc. The SoC design paradigm relies heavily on reuse of intellectual property cores, enabling designers to focus on functionality and performance of the overall system. This is possible if IP cores are equipped with highly optimized interface for plug and play insertion into communication architecture. To this purpose the virtual Socket Interface Alliance …
