Between the Pattern and the Type: A short parallel story

Vasileios Chanis

Historically speaking, the notion of the type was reintroduced to the larger architectural discourse as a direct consequence of the crisis of the Modern. The task of revisiting the forms of the past also dictated the return of architectural methods that ha ...

Pipelined Architecture for Soft-Decision Iterative Projection Aggregation Decoding for RM Codes

Alexios Konstantinos Balatsoukas Stimming, Yuqing Ren

The recently proposed recursive projection-aggregation (RPA) decoding algorithm for Reed-Muller codes has received significant attention as it provides near-ML decoding performance at reasonable complexity for short codes. However, its complicated structur ...

Studies on Types: Dormitories

Tiago André Pratas Borges, Anja Fröhlich, Estelle Lépine, Vanessa Pointet

Concepts of type and typology are not specific to architecture. Rather they represent an interdisciplinary approach to ordering knowledge and gaining insight. In the field of architecture, the study of types and typology offers a didactic perspective that ...

(from) the repertoire : an architectural theory of operations. Oral and embodied knowledge in architectural and spatial practices

Julien Lafontaine Carboni

How can one construct spatial histories and architectural theories from gestures, words and voices, bodies and minor threads? This research delves into oral and embodied architectural and spatial knowledge as modes of producing buildings, spaces and spati ...

Uncooperative Rendezvous in Space: Design of an Electronic Architecture for High Performance Avionic with Multi Sensor Input and Intensive Data Rate

Michaël Yannick Juillard

Active Debris Removal missions consist of sending a satellite in space and removing one or more debris from their current orbit. A key challenge is to obtain information about the uncooperative target. By gathering the velocity, position, and rotation of t ...

From local resynchronization to global pattern recovery in the zebrafish segmentation clock

Andrew Charles Oates

Integrity of rhythmic spatial gene expression patterns in the vertebrate segmentation clock requires local synchronization between neighboring cells by Delta-Notch signaling and its inhibition causes defective segment boundaries. Whether deformation of the ...

Gain-Cell Embedded DRAMs: Modeling and Design Space

Andreas Peter Burg, Adam Shmuel Teman, Robert Giterman, Andrea Bonetti

Among the different types of DRAMs, gain-cell embedded DRAM (GC-eDRAM) is a compact, low-power and CMOS-compatible alternative to conventional SRAM. GC-eDRAM achieves high memory density as it relies on a storage cell that can be implemented with as few as ...

Characterization of Uncertainty Contributions in a High-Accuracy PMU Validation System

Mario Paolone, Asja Derviskadic, Guglielmo Frigo, Daniele Colangelo, Jean-Pierre Braun

The eective deployment of Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs) in Distribution Networks (DNs) requires an enhancement in terms of estimation accuracy beyond the limits of IEEE Std C37.118.1 (IEEE Std), aiming at a Total Vector Error (TVE) in the order of 0.0x% ...

Design of Load-Bearing Systems for Open-Ended Downstream Reuse

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet

This paper discusses the design of load-bearing systems for buildings with regard to their current lack of open-ended reusability. The reason for dismantling load-bearing systems today tends to be less related to material degradation than to a loss of func ...

A hybrid framework for industrial data storage and exploitation

Dimitrios Kyritsis, Ioannis Tourkogiorgis, Foivos Psarommatis Giannakopoulos

In this paper a hybrid framework is illustrated, with a software and hardware integration strategy, for an industrial platform that exploits features from a Relational Database (RDB) and Triplestore using the blackboard architectural pattern, ensuring effi ...

Architecture in the Data-driven City

Frederick Peter Ortner

In the last ten years, new sources of urban big data have made it possible for algorithms to increasingly control how the city is perceived, understood and managed by its inhabitants; this is the data-driven city. New efforts in the social sciences, like ...

DermoNet: densely linked convolutional neural network for efficient skin lesion segmentation

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Saleh Baghersalimi, Hazim Kemal Ekenel

Recent state-of-the-art methods for skin lesion segmentation are based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs). Even though these CNN-based segmentation approaches are accurate, they are computationally expensive. In this paper, we address this problem and ...

Re-imagining the collective space

Valentin Daniel Maurice Bourdon

A careful reading of the evolution of the central dualism opposing public and private domains reveals the relatively silent presence of a third entity: the collective space. In comparison with the importance of a third way in economic and political fields, ...

Diving into the dynamics of product evolution : analyzing technological discontinuities during the era of incremental change and cognitive convergence on a dominant design

Olivier Waeber

Three distinct stages describe the technological evolution of a product over time: ferment, convergence on a dominant design and an era of incremental change. Until recently, the era of incremental change has been characterized as stable and one that invol ...

A Semantic Framework for Architecture Modelling

Eduard Baranov

Architectures are common means for organising coordination between components in order to build complex systems and to make them manageable. They allow thinking on a higher plane and avoiding low-level mistakes. Architectures provide means for ensuring cor ...
