P-Dits for the Frequency Assignment Problem With Transmitter Deactivation in Dense Environments

P-Dits for the Frequency Assignment Problem With Transmitter Deactivation in Dense Environments 150 150

Abstract:

The frequency assignment problem is a nondeterministic polynomial-time hard (NP-hard) optimization problem concerning the assignment of frequency channels to wireless transmitters. Typically, the aim is to minimize interference between transmitters while maintaining a high level of service. In this work, the use of probabilistic d-dimensional bits, or p-dits, for this …

A 1.87-TELOPS/W 3-D Ising Machine for Accelerated Quantum Monte Carlo With Reconfigurability Using CMOS p-Bits

A 1.87-TELOPS/W 3-D Ising Machine for Accelerated Quantum Monte Carlo With Reconfigurability Using CMOS p-Bits 150 150

Abstract:

Qubit-based quantum annealing processors operate at ultra-low temperatures (15 mK) requiring enormous cooling energy. Consequently, there is a lot of interest in quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) algorithms that can be used to emulate quantum computing on classical machines. However, prior classical emulators implemented on CPUs, GPUs, or field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) …

TexCAC: A Direct-Textile-Attachable Microcontroller Integrating 2-MB MRAM for the Command and Control of Advanced Smart Textiles

TexCAC: A Direct-Textile-Attachable Microcontroller Integrating 2-MB MRAM for the Command and Control of Advanced Smart Textiles 150 150

Abstract:

Advanced smart textiles (ASTs) are textile-integrated electronic systems that enable many applications, including healthcare, robotics, and IoT. ASTs contain a variety of electronic components to enable whole system functionality (batteries, sensors, SoCs, etc.), which all require orchestration from a central command-and-control (CAC) module. The primary functions of the CAC module …

A Benchmark of Cryo-CMOS Dynamic Comparators in a 40 nm Bulk CMOS Technology

A Benchmark of Cryo-CMOS Dynamic Comparators in a 40 nm Bulk CMOS Technology 150 150

Abstract:

All cryo-CMOS quantum-classical control interfaces require an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) bridging the analog qubits and the digital control logic. Dynamic comparators play a crucial role in the precision, speed, and power consumption of these ADCs. Yet, their performance is severely impacted by the cryogenic environment. Therefore, this letter benchmarks, for …
