2020 Joint 9th International Conference on Informatics, Electronics & Vision (ICIEV) and 2020 4th International Conference on Imaging, Vision & Pattern Recognition (icIVPR), 2020

To ensure maximum performance, the navigation process should generate optimal path avoiding collisions with dynamic obstacles. Selecting such a path by analyzing the dynamic environment condition while putting minimal overhead on robots is a challenging problem in service robot navigation. In this work, we develop a Fog assisted service robot navigation system that puts most of the computing tasks to a central Fog server. The server employs a vision-based monitoring system to locate the robots and obstacles. The optimal path is generated by analyzing the available information and the robots are instructed accordingly. We implement a test-bed system to evaluate the performance of the proposed system. The results depict that the proposed fog-based system can achieve as low as 23.81% of average distance covered, 22.05% of average service delivery time, and 22.72% of average energy consumption compared to the without fog systems. Contribution-A fog-based system for service robot navigation is proposed that uses computer vision to generate optimal obstacle free path.

This paper explores the current status of female students’ enrollment in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) at the tertiary education system in Bangladesh. It is followed by explorations of challenges women face in technical workplace. Quantitative data for the paper come from more than 1.18 million students at tertiary level from eight public and private universities for three academic years from 2018 to 2020. In addition, a qualitative study was conducted with 48 participants in pre- and during COVID-19 eras to understand barriers hampering women in STEM-related education and jobs. The paper provides a guideline for future policies to ensure inclusive space for growth and retention for women in STEM.

Unlike existing multiplier circuits that have separate circuits for partial product generation and multi-operand addition, the proposed multiplier, designed using a combination of six distinct blocks, incorporates these two circuits together. It also provides an algorithm that depicts the way of using the blocks in designing a $n\times n$ fault tolerant reversible multiplier. The proposed multiplier is simulated to verify the correctness of the design and algorithm. The comparative study shows that the proposed multiplier is more optimized than any existing fault tolerant reversible multiplier in terms of quantum cost, garbage outputs and number of gates used. The proposed multiplier can be used to design a reversible fault tolerant arithmetic logic unit.

Although the cryptographic protocols are secured against mathematical attacks, the attackers can break the encryption by measuring the energy consumption. Approach: To thwart attacks, this study proposed the use of reversible logic for designing the ALU of a crypto-processor. Ideally, reversible circuits do not dissipate any energy. If reversible circuits are used, then the attacker would not be able to analyze the power consumption. In order to design the reversible ALU of a crypto-processor, reversible Carry Save Adder (CSA) using Modified TSG (MTSG) gates and architecture of Montgomery multiplier were proposed. For reversible implementation of Montgomery multiplier, efficient reversible multiplexers and sequential circuits such as reversible registers and shift registers were presented. Results: This study showed that modified designs perform better than the existing ones in terms of number of gates, number of garbage outputs and quantum cost. Lower bounds of the proposed designs were established by providing relevant theorems and lemmas. Conclusion: The application of reversible circuit is suitable to the field of hardware cryptography.

In this regard, reversible or information lossless logic has become an immensely promising technology not only in low power CMOS design and nano-technology based system, but also primal requirement for quantum computing. On the other hand, carry look-ahead adder overcomes the limitations of the ripple wave adder by computing the carry values directly from the adder input. In this paper we present compact and efficient reversible logic implementations of carry look-ahead adder. The proposed design outperforms the existing works in terms of numbers of gates, garbage outputs, quantum costs and delay. In order to show the efficiency of the proposed method lower bounds of the combinational reversible carry skip logic in terms of garbage outputs and quantum cost are proposed as well, which is first ever proposed in the literature to the best of our knowledge. This design of proposed reversible circuit is appropriate for different quantum ALU and embedded processor.

It consumes less power by recovering bit loss from its unique input–output mapping. In this paper, we propose a reversible control unit, which is first ever proposed in literature. Two new 4 × 4 reversible gates, namely HL gate and BJ gate, are proposed to design reversible decoder and J-K flip-flop. An algorithm has been shown to design a reversible control unit. On the way to design the control unit, we propose reversible decoder, sequence counter, instruction register and control logic gates. These circuits are analyzed with the existing ones. The comparative results show that the proposed design outperforms the existing designs in terms of numbers of gates, garbage outputs, delay and quantum cost. In addition, some lower bounds on the numbers of gates and garbage outputs of the proposed control unit have also been presented.

Two approaches for constructing a compact reversible divider have been presented here. The first approach uses conventional division array and the second approach uses high speed division array. Both of the approaches can handle floating point numbers. Several theorems on the numbers of gates, garbage outputs and quantum cost of the reversible n-bit divider have been shown. The comparative study shows that the proposed designs can work with fractional numbers where as existing designs can not. Proposed designs are also much better than the existing approaches considering all the efficiency parameters of reversible logic design which includes numbers of gates used, quantum cost and garbage outputs.

Reversible Computation has high promise oflow power consumption. In this paper, we have proposed a new 4x4 reversible gate (namely BJ gate) which is used to design reversible J-K flip-flop. We have also proposed the design of low power reversible decoders, reversible sequence counter and reversible instruction register. These circuits are analyzed with the existing ones. The comparative results show that the proposed designs of reversible decoders and sequential circuits outperform the existing designs in terms of numbers of gates, garbage outputs and quantum cost. Some lower bounds on the number of gates and garbage outputs of the proposed decoder circuits have also been proposed.
