This algorithm can be applied for any length of data, by processing it in a block of 16 bytes at a time. The last block may have less than 16 bytes. To process an input block of 16 bytes, the algorithm first forms an optimized table of pre-calculated CRC. Corresponding to the input data, lookup from this table is done and the results from the table lookup are combined by XOR operations to form the final CRC of the input data. The Ethernet data whose CRC needs to be calculated is processed in blocks of 128 bits at clock frequency of 312.5 MHz to achieve a throughput of 40Gbps. The entire design is functionally verified using ModelSim SE Plus 6.3g. Applications in Internet of Things and Machine-to-Machine require real time big data platforms and Artificial Intelligence platforms, where there is high demand for lower latency and high speed network infrastructure. To create such a reliable network infrastructure at high speeds, a hardware accelerated CRC error detection needs to be used.","PeriodicalId":283953,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE Annual India Conference (INDICON)","volume":"533 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114498378","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}

Massive multi input multi output (MIMO) techniques are the driving force behind green communications, since they provide better energy efficiency with reduced transmit power. The massive data generated from such mobile communication systems, is a rich data source of great value. Procuring useful analytics from this precious resource, a big data aware 5G mobile communication system can be developed. A particular choice of big analytics brings in the concept of large random matrix models and single ring law. In this paper, first, big data analytics is performed in the context of a mobile user communicating to, either a massive MIMO or a massive MIMO orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system. Constructive insights such as transmitted (source) signal correlation analysis (attributed to certain network events), channel correlation analysis (attributed to user mobility) have been extracted. Ring law also has its roots in signal detection, which suggests that few other signal detection algorithms may be suitable candidates for signal/channel correlation analysis. Therefore, second, a proposed extension of an information theoretic criterion (ITC) based signal detection algorithm, for correlation analysis, is compared with ring law. Using massive MIMO and MIMO-OFDM system simulations, the said correlation analyses have confirmed the prevalence of ring law. Third, it is deduced that integrating big data analytics with massive MIMO system improves spectral efficiency.","PeriodicalId":283953,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE Annual India Conference (INDICON)","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116970117","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}

Recently developed Multilayer form of ELM called ML-ELM which is based on the architecture of deep learning, become more popular compared to other traditional classifiers because of its important qualities such as multiple non-linear transformation of input data, higher level abstraction of data, learning different form of input data, capable of managing huge volume of data etc. In addition to the above, another good quality which ML-ELM possesses is its ability to map the input feature vector non-linearly to an extended dimensional feature space for giving better performance. This paper proposes an approach where unsupervised and semi-supervised clustering using kMeans and seeded-kMeans have been done in ML-ELM feature space. The empirical results of the proposed approach on two benchmark datasets outperform the results of clustering done in TF-IDF vector space.

The synergistic SMA based actuator uses an aiding force to create repetitive motion, to be capable of producing increased displacement. The range of stiffness of the actuator relies on two controlling factors i.e., the number of SMA wires and the energy storing capacity of the spring. Increase in the number of SMA wires offers simultaneous improvement of force and stiffness. The above is analyzed theoretically and verified through experiments. The tracking performance of the actuator is obtained through simulation with stiffness feedback for PID control action, using the data acquired from real time experiments.","PeriodicalId":283953,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE Annual India Conference (INDICON)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116838340","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}

In this paper the hold timing of the data bus read operation is investigated. The methodology is presented and applied to setting the On-Die Termination (ODT) start/stop delay settings for optimal operation.

Biomechanics of fracture, especially of a complex part of a human body such as skull, is one of the emerging areas of applications of computational bio-mechanics to understand the behavior of the skull during a traumatic injury, such as head impact during accidents. FEA (Finite Element Analysis) a numerical simulation methodology conventionally used in structural analysis has gained significant attention in biomechanics. Fracture biomechanics plays a key role in not only identifying weak areas of the skull but also designing and developing better techniques in treatment of fractures to restore form, function and aesthetics of the facial skeleton. Virtual simulation in medical field has opened new possibilities to predict the behaviour of the components of human skeleton when subjected to external load (trauma). The future in maxillofacial surgery is evidence based practice and FEA helps obtaining relevant data in different clinical scenarios. In particular, in this study a 3D finite element model of the skull is created starting with a CT scan data. All complexities of the skull geometry, including bones and muscles forming the skeletal structure is considered for creating the numerical model. This numerical model is then subjected to frontal, lateral. vertical, occlusal and angulated impact load. Impact analysis is done and weak areas susceptible for fracture and hence failures are identified. Further implants of various designs and materials used in craniofacial fracture fixations are placed in different fracture situations in the virtual model and subjected to different impact load conditions. This will enable the study of fracture and stability of the fracture of the skull under cranio-facial fracture conditions. The results from the analysis then can be used to come up with optimum locations of implant for different type of impact situations. This is expected to complement the existing treatment methodologies used by surgeons and amount of trauma and pain on the patient can be reduced. Further, appropriate knowledge of fracture biomechanics can be used to create safety measures in automobile designing hence preventing and reducing severity of facial injuries. Designing guards to sport helmets can reduce the intensity of facial injuries in sport accidents.","PeriodicalId":283953,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE Annual India Conference (INDICON)","volume":" 4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120832599","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}
