Patellar tendinopathy is an attritional injury of the patellar tendon that is frequently identified in jumping athletes. Through repetitive or explosive movements, considerable loads and high peak strains are generated across the patellar tendon.» This leads to microinjury of tendon fibers, local mucoid degeneration, and loss of the fibrocartilaginous tissue that attaches tendon to bone.
Logic-in memory has emerged as a promising solution to reduce the significant time gap between processor and memory. Simple logics such as NOR and NAND can be embedded in the memory for the purpose of data processing. Besides, ternary logic has been suggested to reduce the interconnects and the complexity of operations. In this paper, a reconfigurable ternary NOR/NAND logic compatible with ternary memories has been proposed. This scheme exploits magnetic tunnel junction as a nonvolatile memory element and a variable resistance, and carbon nanotube field-effect transistor for designing the peripheral circuits to achieve performance and efficiency. The proposed circuit is simulated using HSPICE and the results have validated the correct operation and high performance of the proposed design. Furthermore, the proposed designs are exploited in image processing applications to evaluate their performance in real applications, which gain averagely 52% improvement in the case of data loss.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
