Modularity in design of products and systems

IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics - Part A: Systems and Humans, 1998
Modularity refers to the use of common units to create product variants. This paper aims at the development of models and solution approaches to the modularity problem for mechanical, electrical, and mixed process products (e.g., electromechanical products).

Modular Asynchronous Control Design

IEEE Transactions on Computers, 1977
A modular design strategy for the implementation of control logic is discussed. After discussing several basic control modules, the overall design of control sequencing is described and a particular control sequence taken from the Illiac III computer is worked as an example of the technique.

Modular design of reactive systems

Proceedings of the 28th Annual International Computer Software and Applications Conference, 2004. COMPSAC 2004., 2004
We concentrate on two major aspects of reactive system design: behavior control and modularity. These are studied from a formal point of view, within the framework of action systems. The traditional interleaving paradigm is completed with a new barrier synchronization mechanism.

Design methodology for modular tools

Production Engineering, 2011
Serving individual customer needs at reasonable prices can be a profitable target market in high-wage countries. The dilemma between scale and scope-oriented production is one major research topic within the Cluster of Excellence “Integrative Production Technology for High-Wage Countries” at the RWTH Aachen University.

An Efficient and Modular Transmultiplexer Design

IEEE Transactions on Communications, 1982
A new transmultiplexer design is presented in which reliability is achieved by adopting a tree structure. A working principle based upon analytic signals results in a modular structure. The usage of FIR filters designed to have coefficients which are sums of a limited and prescribed number of powers of two together with an efficient, low-sensitivity ...

ON THE DESIGN OF EFFICIENT MODULAR ADDERS

Journal of Circuits, Systems and Computers, 2005
Modular adders are met in various applications of computer systems. In this paper, we investigate a new architecture for their design that utilizes a carry save adder stage and two binary adders that operate in parallel. Realizations in static CMOS reveal that the introduced architecture leads to modular adder implementations that offer significant ...

Modular Design of Irreducible Systems

2006
Strategies of incremental evolution of artificial neural systems have been suggested over the last decade to overcome the scalability problem of evolutionary robotics In this article two methods are introduced that support the evolution of neural couplings and extensions of recurrent neural networks of general type These two methods are applied to ...

Adaptation and the modular design of organisms

1995
In this paper the implications of the theory of evolutionary computation for evolutionary biology are explored. It is claimed that the concept of “representations” is particularly useful to understand the evolution of complex adaptation and the origin of the modular design of higher organisms.

Modular design of minicomputer applications

The IEEE Computer Society's Second International Computer Software and Applications Conference, 1978. COMPSAC '78., 2005
Modular design techniques in minicomputer applications, as in most large software efforts, is critical, particularly in the laboratory research environment where the demands on the computer system for data acquisition and control continually change because of changing demands by the experimental program.
