How Asynchronous Events Encode Video

Martin Vetterli, Adam James Scholefield, Karen Adam

As event-based sensing gains in popularity, theoretical understanding is needed to harness this technology’s potential. Instead of recording video by capturing frames, event-based cameras have sensors that emit events when their inputs change, thus encodin ...

On the Advantage of Coherent LoRa Detection in the Presence of Interference

Andreas Peter Burg, Alexios Konstantinos Balatsoukas Stimming, Orion Afisiadis, Joachim Tobias Tapparel, Sitian Li

It has been shown that the coherent detection of long range (LoRa) signals only provides marginal gains of around 0.7 dB on the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel. However, ALOHA-based massive Internet-of-Things systems, including LoRa, often ope ...

Turning PathFinder Upside -Down: 1-4,xploring FPGA Switch -Blocks by Negotiating Switch Presence

Paolo Ienne, Stefan Nikolic

Automated switch-block exploration gains in importance as technology scaling brings more emphasis on the physical constraints, making it insufficient to rely on abstract measures of routability alone. In this work, we take an approach that significantly di ...

Temporal Super-Resolution Microscopy Using a Hue-Encoded Shutter

Sylvain Calinon, Michael Stefan Daniel Liebling, Emmanuel Pignat, Christian Jaques

Limited time-resolution in microscopy is an obstacle to many biological studies. Despite recent advances in hardware, digital cameras have limited operation modes that constrain frame-rate, integration time, and color sensing patterns. In this paper, we pr ...

Flow control for Latency-Critical RPCs

Edouard Bugnion, Evangelos Marios Kogias

In today’s modern datacenters, the waiting time spent within a server’s queue is a major contributor of the end-to-end tail latency of μs-scale remote procedure calls. In traditional TCP, congestion control handles in-network congestion, while flow control ...
