Loss of plasticity is one of the main challenges in continual learning with deep neural networks, where neural networks trained via backpropagation gradually lose their ability to adapt to new tasks and perform significantly worse than…

This article considers the performance of digital communication systems transmitting messages over finite-state erasure channels with memory. Information bits are protected from channel erasures using error-correcting codes; successful…

In-memory deep learning computes neural network models where they are stored, thus avoiding long distance communication between memory and computation units, resulting in considerable savings in energy and time. In-memory deep learning has…

Batteries play a key role in today's power grid. In this paper, we investigate the impact of battery degradation on the distribution network. We formulate a multi-objective framework for optimizing battery scheduling with the goals of…

In this work, we study a recently proposed direct shaping code for flash memory. This rate-1 code is designed to reduce the wear for SLC (one bit per cell) flash by minimizing the average fraction of programmed cells when storing structured…

Continual learning agents with finite capacity must balance acquiring new knowledge with retaining the old. This requires controlled forgetting of knowledge that is no longer needed, freeing up capacity to learn. Weight decay, viewed as a…

Caching and rate allocation are two promising approaches to support video streaming over wireless network. However, existing rate allocation designs do not fully exploit the advantages of the two approaches. This paper investigates the…

This paper considers the transmission of an infinite sequence of messages (a streaming source) over a packet erasure channel, where every source message must be recovered perfectly at the destination subject to a fixed decoding delay. While…

Predicting faults before they occur helps to avoid potential safety hazards. Furthermore, planning the required maintenance actions in advance reduces operation costs. In this article, the focus is on electrochemical cells. In order to…

In this paper, for a fading decode-and-forward full-duplex relay channel, we analytically derive optimum power allocations. Individual power constraints for the source and the relay are assumed and the related optimization problem is…

This paper explores advances in reconfiguration properties of SRAM-based FPGAs, namely Partial Dynamic Reconfiguration, to improve the resilience of critical systems that take advantage of this technology. Commercial of-the-shelf…

Traditional memory writing operations proceed one bit at a time, where e.g. an individual magnetic domain is force-flipped by a localized external field. One way to increase material storage capacity would be to write several bits at a time…

Magnetic random-access memory (MRAM) is a promising memory technology due to its high density, non-volatility, and high endurance. However, achieving high memory fidelity incurs significant write-energy costs, which should be reduced for…

Dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) is one of the most effective techniques for reducing energy consumption in embedded and real-time systems. However, traditional DVS algorithms have inherent limitations on their capability in energy saving…

3-D cross point phase change memory (PCM) is a promising emerging memory. However, dynamic performances of 3-D cross point PCM are limited and the role of bias scheme is unknown. Previous studies on bias schemes for planar memories use…

In medical imaging, technical progress or changes in diagnostic procedures lead to a continuous change in image appearance. Scanner manufacturer, reconstruction kernel, dose, other protocol specific settings or administering of contrast…

This study investigates strategies for minimizing Joule losses in resistive random access memory (ReRAM) cells, which are also referred to as memristive devices. Typically, the structure of ReRAM cells involves a nanoscale layer of…

SSDs are currently replacing magnetic disks in many application areas. A challenge of the underlying flash technology is that data cannot be updated in-place. A block consisting of many pages must be completely erased before a single page…

Breakdowns may occur in high-voltage applications even in ultrahigh vacuum conditions. Previously, we showed that it is important to pay attention to the post-breakdown voltage recovery in order to limit the appearance of secondary…

To mitigate the ever-worsening Power Wall problem, more and more applications need to expand their power supply to the wide-voltage range including the near-threshold region. However, the read delay distribution of the SRAM cells under the…
