    Technology driven high-level synthesis
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2007) Joseph, M.; Bhat Narasimha, N.B.; Chandra Sekaran, K.C.
    Technology driven High-Level Synthesis make the present High-Level Synthesis knowledgeable of the target Field Programmable Gate Array. All the functions of High-Level Synthesis become aware of target technology since parsing. It makes right inference of hardware, by attaching target technology specific attributes to the parse tree. This right inference will guide to generate optimized hardware. © 2007 IEEE.

    Stability analysis of stratified soil slopes by optimization technique using Janbu's generalized procedure of slices
    (2008) Arunkumar Bhat, K.; Shivashankar, R.; Yaji, R.K.
    The networks to facilitate communications have created large number of cuttings and embankments all along the west coast of India which is subjected to high intensity of rainfall. The heavy rainfall has converted the stable slope to unstable slopes over the years. Hence there is a need to study the effect of rainfall and other factors on the stability of slopes. Typical stratified slope is considered for the stability analysis and the general computer program is developed in C language which optimizes the factor of safety. The factor of safety is calculated using Janbu's GPS and Davidon-Fletcher-Powel (DFP) technique is used for optimization. The slope with berm or without berm and with or without tension crack are analyzed for stability. The factor of safety decreases with the increase in unit weight, pore pressure ratio, height of slope and slope angle and improves with shear strength parameters and berm width. The program is flexible in varying the input parameters to suit to the field conditions and their effects are presented in this paper.

    Shape optimization and assessment of wind induced stresses in domes
    (2009) Babu Narayan, K.S.; Yaragal, S.C.; Tamura, Y.
    Domes are popularly used for column free areas. They are employed as covers to reservoirs and treatment units and also as containment in nuclear reactors. Inverted domes are popular as foundations. This paper demonstrates the need and scope for optimization of domes by formulating and solving the problem by use of calculus. A simple but elegant method is suggested for determination of wind stresses by statics which compares very well with that obtained by rigorous method.
