Decimal multiplication is an integral part of financial, commercial, and internet-based computations. This paper presents a novel double digit decimal multiplication (DDDM) technique that performs 2 digit multiplications simultaneously in one clock cycle. This design offers low latency and high

and discrete Fourier transform with the combination of double watermarking algorithm is proposed. In this scheme, first to do image singular value decomposition, and then out of decomposition of matrix DFT spectrum amplitude image watermark embedding, namely the row of molecules, to each image block DFT

Abstract—Analog-to-digital converters (ADC’s) are ubiquitous, critical components of software radio and other signal processing systems. This paper surveys the state-of-the-art of ADC’s, including experimental converters and commercially available parts. The distribution of resolution versus

The theme of this Insurance and Finance (IF) newsletter is how the global insurance industry has demonstrated its strength both by providing the coverages needed and by helping to maintain economic growth and stability. The success and the need to remain relevant is in light of regulatory, technological and products challenges which is featured in the various contributions. In this issue of the IF newsletter, our readers will discover an interview with David Long, the CEO of Liberty Mutual, giving them an opportunity to learn about yet another global player that delivers to its constituencies and helps them manage their risks, thereby maintaining the world’s continued prosperity. Liberty Mutual is the IF newsletter’s eighth featured insurer and, as all other featured companies, it is an insurer that serves local communities in its global outreach.1

www.bitcoin.org Abstract. A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash would allow online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution. Digital signatures provide part of the solution, but the main benefits are lost if a trusted third

, with the economies of China and India expanding with double digit growth rates, Asia can become a much larger source of ABCs, depending on the energy path taken to sustain this growth rate. In fact new estimates indicate that BC emissions for China in 2006 have doubled since 2000, whereas SO2 emissions have grown

We describe a computer program which is able to estimate the tempo and the times of musical beats in expressively performed music. The input data may be either digital audio or a symbolic representation of music such as MIDI. The data is processed off-line to detect the salient rhythmic events

this report. A Possible Spatial Component: Is There a "Double Digital Divide" The literature that we have reviewed about the digital divide in North America focuses on differences between people, such as socioeconomic and gender differences. To some extent, these are joined

A return to double-digit increases in health benefit costs is fueling interest in new structures for employment-based health benefits. It is also fueling discussions about
