Associated with these are the difficulties of placing logic elements as well as routing of their interconnections. As traditional metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) design and composition are continuously tweaked and scaled to smaller dimensions, interconnect innovation has struggled to keep pace. This has lead to an increasing performance disparity between transistor switching latency and wire transmission time. The mismatch has implications for integrated circuit (IC) design resulting in slower, more power hungry and space-inefficient circuits.3D silicon integration is a proposed solution that promises to simultaneously increase chip-level performance and decrease overall power consumption while boosting transistor density and computational power per unit volume. The implications of this novel approach to integration are assessed through an initial 3D processor test vehicle implementation.","PeriodicalId":270103,"journal":{"name":"2009 Fourth International Conference on Systems","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130323492","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The main goal of this paper is to compare different methods to combine the results of both classifiers – both paralanguage and facial expressions. A prototype of the dialog system was developed in the Department of Computer Science . The proposed system is fully automatic, user-independent and real-time working. Several experiments show that the speech recognition quality is increased by using nonverbal information.

Leaving Aristotelian logic aside and introducing an aporetic view in this “primary paradigm of reality perception” lead to a whole new set of problem-solving methodologies.This paper is a short version of one part in a series dealing with System Thinking and Acting and the connections with and differences to the application of daoistic thinking models.","PeriodicalId":270103,"journal":{"name":"2009 Fourth International Conference on Systems","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116894683","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
