Improving The Efficiency Of Dnn Hardware Accelerator By Replacing Digitalfeature Extractor With An Imprecise Neuromorphic Hardware, Majid Mohammadi Rad, Omid Sojodishijani
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Mixed-signal in-memory computation can drastically improve the efficiency of the hardware implementing machine learning (ML) algorithms by (i) removing the need to fetch neural network parameters from internal or external memory and (ii) performing a large number of multiply-accumulate operations in parallel. However, this boost in efficiency comes with some disadvantages. Among them, the inability to precisely program nonvolatile memory devices (NVM) with neural network parameters and sensitivity to noise prevent the mixed-signal hardware to perform a precise and deterministic computation. Unfortunately, these hardware-specific errors can get magnified while propagating along with the layers of the deep neural network. In …

Fault-Tolerant Method And Simulation Of Heterogeneous Multi-Core Processor Based On Speculative Mechanism, Shigan Yu, Zhimin Tang, Xiaochun Ye, Dongrui Fan
Journal of System Simulation
Abstract: Heterogeneous multicore is one of the important branches of processors,but they are still faced with frequent transient failures. TMR(Triple mode redundancy) is the main method to solve transient faults, which has the characteristics of low efficiency and high power consumption, a high-performance Fault-Tolerant Scheduling Algorithm with Speculative mechanism(FTSAS) is proposed. Each heterogeneous core can execute tasks independently, the state values of the first completed core are recorded, and the first completed core continues to perform the next task with forward speculative method. The results are compared by backward core, the majority consensus principle is adopted to ensure the reliability …

High Performance Fault-Tolerant Scheduling Method And Simulation For Heterogeneous Multicore, Shigan Yu, Zhimin Tang, Xiaochun Ye, Zhimin Zhang
Journal of System Simulation
Abstract: To deal with the problem of low performance and high power consumption when solving the transient fault of the processor with three mode redundancy (TMR), a task execution algorithm for heterogeneous multicore considering fault tolerant (TEAHFT) is proposed. The tasks to be executed are divided into sensitive tasks and fault-tolerant tasks. The sensitive tasks are executed in a TMR mode, and the fault-tolerant tasks are executed in a competitive scheduling mode. The task will be rerun in TMR method if the results of the fault-tolerant tasks do not meet the reliability threshold. The simulation experimental results show that TEAHFT …

Tapu: Test And Pick Up-Based $K$-Connectivity Restoration Algorithm For Wireless Sensor Networks, Vahi̇d Khali̇lpour Akram, Orhan Dağdevi̇ren
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
A $k$-connected wireless sensor network remains connected if any $k$-1 arbitrary nodes stop working. The aim of movement-assisted $k$-connectivity restoration is to preserve the $k$-connectivity of a network by moving the nodes to the necessary positions after possible failures in nodes. This paper proposes an algorithm named TAPU for $k$-connectivity restoration that guarantees the optimal movement cost. Our algorithm improves the time and space complexities of the previous approach (MCCR) in both best and worst cases. In the proposed algorithm, the nodes are classified into safe and unsafe groups. Failures of safe nodes do not change the $k$ value of …
A Centralized Self-Adaptive Fault Tolerance Approach Based On Feedback Control For Multiagent Systems, Şebnem Bora, Oğuz Di̇kenelli̇
A Centralized Self-Adaptive Fault Tolerance Approach Based On Feedback Control For Multiagent Systems, Şebnem Bora, Oğuz Di̇kenelli̇
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Our research introduces a self-adaptive fault tolerance approach for multiagent systems that enables the system to avoid crash failures. It is a replication-based approach that exploits a feedback control loop and a proportional (P) controller within a replication infrastructure. Thus, we are able to both observe the agents' behaviors to estimate criticalities and determine the number of replicas in replica groups with respect to the agents' criticalities and the number of available resources. Thus, agents that are to be replicated and the numbers of replicas in replica groups are automatically and adaptively identified in dynamic environments. We implement this approach …

Load Management In A Distributed Multimedia Streaming Environment Using A Fault-Tolerant Hierarchical System, Hadi̇ Işik Aybay, Mohammad Ahmed Shah
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In contrast to text-only forms of communications, multimedia uses a combination of audiovisual means alongside textual modes of communication. Streaming multimedia is such multimedia that is constantly delivered by a provider of the multimedia to a client. In streaming multimedia the streamed content is continually presented to and received by the end user. Distributed multimedia systems (DMSs) deliver multimedia content to end-users by means of distributed multimedia databases and distributed information servers. These DMSs are designed to deliver multimedia content over a network. A fault-tolerant redundant hierarchy (Red-HI)-based load management policy for a distributed multimedia streaming system is proposed in …
Fault Tolerant Broadcasting Analysis In Wireless Monitoring Networks, Akbar Ghaffarpour Rahbar
Fault Tolerant Broadcasting Analysis In Wireless Monitoring Networks, Akbar Ghaffarpour Rahbar
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Wireless monitoring networks can be used for security applications such as the monitoring of narrow passages and operational fields. These networks can be designed based on sensor networks. In sensor networks, each node can hear a message and broadcast the message to its neighbor nodes. Nevertheless, nodes may fail, so that faulty nodes cannot hear or cannot transmit any message, where the locations of the faulty nodes are unknown and their failures are permanent. In this paper, the nodes are situated on a line or a square grid-based topology in a plane for security/monitoring applications. For each topology, 2 nonadaptive …
