REDEVELOPING THE GREYFIELDS WITH ENVISION: USING PARTICIPATORY SUPPORT SYSTEMS TO REDUCE URBAN SPRAWL IN AUSTRALIA. by Stephen GLACKIN

“… Given the recent publications from Australian State governments demanding greater community and stakeholder engagement in urban planning, as well as calls from international agencies for a reduction in the footprint, and increase in the sustainable planning, of cities, there is now the potential for the advances made in geo-tools to have considerable effect. Arising out of ‘Greening the Greyfields’, a federally funded, inter-state project examining the feasibility of redevelopment in the middle suburbs, ENVISION was produced as a GISbased, Participatory Support System, for engaging with the diverse array of stakeholders involved in urban redevelopment. …”

Comprehensive Analysis of Alpha-Parametric Set for the Calculation of Intersection Lengths of Radiological Ray Path in Siddon's Algorithm Used in 3D Image Reconstruction by Adem Polat

“…In the algorithm, a set of alpha-parametric values is computed containing the length and index values where the voxel array of the x-ray intersects the x-y-z axes. In the alpha-set creation section of the Siddon algorithm, the set elements are sorted from small to large, but some elements have been noticed to have the same value in simulations. …”

VCD-CIM: A Vertical-Compute-Decode Digital Computing-In-Memory Area-Efficient Macro for Vector-Wise Computation With Variable Accumulation Length by Bo Wang, Xiaoxue Zhong, Jun Yang

“…In post-layout simulations, for signed 8-bit inputs, 8-bit weights, and 23-bit outputs, VCD-CIM achieves a peak energy efficiency of 30.11 TOPS/W and maintains an area energy efficiency of 1.785 TOPS/mm2 across the accumulation length range of 4 to 128. We validate the effectiveness of the VCD-CIM architecture through simulations on the MobileViT network, achieving CIM array activation rates between 75% and 100% during complete network inference tasks.…”
