Background
Appendicitis is the most common general surgical emergency worldwide, but its diagnosis remains challenging. The aim of this study was to determine whether existing risk prediction models can reliably identify patients presenting to hospital in the UK with acute right iliac fossa (RIF) pain who are at low risk of appendicitis.
Methods
A systematic search was completed to identify all...
This paper presents the architecture and implementation of a configurable router intended for embedded network-on-chip support within field-programmable gate arrays. The router supports five network topologies and utilizes a dual-crossbar arrangement to reduce resource utilization. The router has been implemented in an Altera Stratix chip and in a 0.18-mum standard-cell process. For the routing and...
This paper describes prototype implementations of single-chip multiprocessor systems with a configurable router intended for dedicated, embedded network-on-chip support within field-programmable gate arrays in order to provide performance and flexibility for system-on-chip applications. The router supports ring, octagon, and mesh network topologies. Implementation in an Altera Stratix EP1S80 chip...
The normalized stress induced leakage current (SILC) measured when the oxide is subjected to low level constant-current stresses shows a tendency towards saturation at large charge fluences. To investigate the origin of this saturation, the degradation of the oxide has been analyzed using two independent methods: SILC data analysis and a two-step stress test. The results show that, although under...
