And the serial port is used to make the output data of the decoder back to computer for verification. Through the simulation results, the Modelsim time simulation diagram is given, and the watermark image compared with the original image is got. The results show that the resource usage of our system is few, and the decoding rate is fast. It has a certain practical value.

Field-programmable gate array\
only for these students that are intrested in Field-programmable gate array
field-programmable gate array (FPGA) is an integrated circuit designed to be configured by a customer or a designer after manufacturing – hence "field-programmable". The FPGA configuration is generally specified using a hardware description language (HDL), similar to that used for an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC). (Circuit diagrams were previously used to specify the configuration, as they were for ASICs
The FPGA industry sprouted from programmable read-only memory (PROM) and programmable logic devices (PLDs). PROMs and PLDs both had the option of being programmed in batches in a factory or in the field (field-programmable). However, programmable logic was hard-wired between logic gates.[6]
In the late 1980s, the Naval Surface Warfare Center funded an experiment proposed by Steve Casselman to develop a computer that would implement 600,000 reprogrammable gates. Casselman was successful and a patent related to the system was issued in 1992.[6]
Some of the industry's foundational concepts and technologies for programmable logic arrays, gates, and logic blocks are founded in patents awarded to David W. Page and LuVerne R. Peterson in 1985.
Programmable logic devices (PLD) like PALs, PLAs, GALs and CPLDs allow complex digital logic designs to be implemented in a single device. Newer devices like FPGAs can implement thousands of logic gates, supporting more complex designs than simpler PLDs which are limited to hundreds of gates. FPGAs contain an array of configurable logic blocks and interconnects that can be programmed by the user to realize different logic functions. CPLDs have a complexity between basic PLDs and FPGAs, including non-volatile configuration memory and supporting more complicated feedback paths than PLDs.
This document discusses programmable logic devices (PLD) including their purpose, types, and structure. The main types of PLDs are SPLDs (simple PLDs like ROM, PLA, PAL, GAL), CPLDs (complex PLDs), and FPGAs (field-programmable gate arrays). SPLDs have an input connection matrix connecting inputs to AND gates and an output connection matrix connecting AND gates to OR gates. CPLDs and FPGAs can implement more complex designs than SPLDs and support thousands of gates versus hundreds for SPLDs. FPGAs contain many identical logic cells that can be programmed to implement different functions.
FPGAs were introduced in 1984 as a programmable alternative to PLDs. They fill the gap between discrete logic and smaller PLDs on the low end and more expensive ASICs on the high end. The basic elements of an FPGA are configurable logic blocks (CLBs), configurable I/O blocks (IOBs), and a programmable interconnect. FPGAs from vendors like Xilinx and Altera have a regular architecture of CLBs surrounded by IOBs and connected via a hierarchy of programmable interconnects.
This document provides an introduction to FPGA design fundamentals including:
- Programmable logic devices like PLDs, CPLDs, and FPGAs which allow for reconfigurable logic circuits.
- The basic architecture of FPGAs including configurable logic blocks (CLBs), input/output blocks (IOBs), and a programmable interconnect structure.
- Verilog and VHDL as common hardware description languages used for FPGA design entry and simulation.
- A simple example of designing a half-adder circuit in VHDL, including entity, architecture, and behavioral modeling style.
This document discusses field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) and complex programmable logic devices (CPLDs). It begins with an introduction to programmable logic technology and compares application specific integrated circuits, programmable logic devices, FPGAs, and CPLDs. Key differences between FPGAs and CPLDs are that FPGAs contain over 100,000 logic blocks while CPLDs typically contain thousands of logic gates. FPGAs also offer higher complexity and can implement high-grade data processing, while CPLDs offer moderate data processing. The document then discusses FPGA and CPLD families, performance, and technical development differences compared to microcontrollers. It provides block diagrams of C
Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are integrated circuits that can be programmed and reconfigured after manufacturing, allowing for flexible and customizable digital logic. FPGAs contain logic blocks, input/output blocks, and interconnects. The logic blocks contain programmable logic elements like flip-flops and lookup tables. The input/output blocks allow communication with external components. The interconnects connect the internal logic blocks to the input/output blocks. FPGAs have advantages over ASICs like reconfigurability, parallelism, and faster time-to-market. Future trends for FPGAs include using them to accelerate artificial intelligence applications and incorporating high bandwidth memory.

This document discusses techniques to enhance security in FPGA-based systems. It begins by describing the basic architecture of FPGAs, including their programmable logic blocks and interconnects. It then discusses the main security concern with FPGAs, which is the copying or cloning of the configuration bitstream. Several threat and defense models are proposed to address this issue. Finally, a new technique is proposed to enhance the security of FPGA-based systems against bitstream cloning attacks.
This document summarizes a research paper about new techniques to enhance security in FPGA-based systems. It discusses how FPGA bitstreams can be copied, allowing unauthorized use of intellectual property. The paper proposes using control words to configure FPGA lookup tables, making the system functionality dependent on the control word provided. This reduces hardware complexity compared to encryption methods, while still providing security against bitstream copying if the correct control word is unknown. The technique also allows runtime reconfiguration by changing the control word, an advantage over conventional encrypted FPGA systems.

Prediction of Electrical Energy Efficiency Using Information on Consumer's Ac...PriyankaKilaniya
Energy efficiency has been important since the latter part of the last century. The main object of this survey is to determine the energy efficiency knowledge among consumers. Two separate districts in Bangladesh are selected to conduct the survey on households and showrooms about the energy and seller also. The survey uses the data to find some regression equations from which it is easy to predict energy efficiency knowledge. The data is analyzed and calculated based on five important criteria. The initial target was to find some factors that help predict a person's energy efficiency knowledge. From the survey, it is found that the energy efficiency awareness among the people of our country is very low. Relationships between household energy use behaviors are estimated using a unique dataset of about 40 households and 20 showrooms in Bangladesh's Chapainawabganj and Bagerhat districts. Knowledge of energy consumption and energy efficiency technology options is found to be associated with household use of energy conservation practices. Household characteristics also influence household energy use behavior. Younger household cohorts are more likely to adopt energy-efficient technologies and energy conservation practices and place primary importance on energy saving for environmental reasons. Education also influences attitudes toward energy conservation in Bangladesh. Low-education households indicate they primarily save electricity for the environment while high-education households indicate they are motivated by environmental concerns.
Supermarket Management System Project Report.pdfKamal Acharya
Supermarket management is a stand-alone J2EE using Eclipse Juno program.
This project contains all the necessary required information about maintaining
the supermarket billing system.
The core idea of this project to minimize the paper work and centralize the
data. Here all the communication is taken in secure manner. That is, in this
application the information will be stored in client itself. For further security the
data base is stored in the back-end oracle and so no intruders can access it.
