<div>Field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) are remarkably versatile. FPGAs are used in a wide variety of applications and industries where use of application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) is less economically feasible. Despite the area, cost, and power challenges designers face when integrating FPGAs into devices, they provide significant security and performance benefits. Many of these benefits can be realized in client compute hardware such as laptops, tablets, and smartphones.</div>

This paper proposes a novel design of application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) which is capable of connecting sensor network and other electronic systems to the Internet. The transfer of data between different networks and internet of things (IoT) platform is controlled by IoT platform with the help of instruction sent to ASIC. ASIC will act as serial peripheral interface (SPI) master to all connected networks and data will be transferred serially between them. The different ASIC modules are SPI module, control module, memory module and data/instruction decoder with additional modules built-in self-test (BIST) and direct memory access (DMA). The proposed ASIC will consume less power as compared to conventional microcontroller/microprocessor due to the fact that it is designed for IoT applications. It is described in VHDL at RTL level and simulation is done on the Vivado 2016.2.

The terrorism database includes more than 27000 terrorism incidents between 1968 and 2006. Each incident record has spatial information (country names for all records and city names for some records), a time stamp (ie year, month, and day), and several other fields (eg tactics, weapon types, target types, fatalities, and injuries). We introduce a unified visualization environment that is able to present various types of patterns and thus to facilitate explorations of the incident data from different perspectives. With the visualization environment one can visualize either spatiomultivariate, spatiotemporal, temporal - multivariate, or spatiotemporal - multivariate patterns. For example, the analyst can examine the characteristics (in terms of target types, tactics, or other multivariate vectors) of aggregated incidents and at the same time perceive how multivariate characteristics change over time and vary spatially. Special attention is devoted to the application-specific data analysis process, from data compilation, geocoding, preprocessing, and transformation, through customization and configuration of visualization components, to the interpretation and presentation of discovered patterns.

Multimedia applications are characterized by a high number of data transfers and storage operations. Appropriate transformations can be applied at the algorithmic level to improve crucial implementation characteristics. In this paper, the effect of data-reuse transformations on power consumption and performance of multimedia applications, realized on an Application Specific Instruction set Processor (ASIP), is examined. An ASIP for multimedia applications designed based on a complete methodology is used to evaluate this effect. Results prove the efficiency of the ASIP solution and indicate benefits from the use of the data-reuse transformations in terms of energy consumption and performance. Also, preliminary results from the exploitation of instruction buffering technique to reduce the energy consumption of the ASIP are presented.
