This paper presents a new digital watermarking scheme that combines some operators of the Genetic Algorithm (GA) and the Residue Number (RN) System (RNS) to perform encryption on an image, which is embedded into a cover image for the purposes of watermarking. Thus, an image watermarking scheme uses an encrypted image. The secret image is embedded in decomposed frames of the cover image achieved by applying a three-level Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT). This is to ensure that the secret information is not exposed even when there is a successful attack on the cover information. Content creators can prove ownership of the multimedia content by unveiling the secret information in a court of law. The proposed scheme was tested with sample data using MATLAB2022 and the results of the simulation show a great deal of imperceptibility and robustness as compared to similar existing schemes.展开更多

The expressions for the probability of error are presented when the channel noise is additive Gaussian noise and each branch is M-ary orthogonal signaling modulation. The expressions of the probabilities of undetected and uncorrected error are also obtained when the redundant residue number system are single error-checking and single error-correcting model, respectively.展开更多

The effect of amount of the additives, the content of the added substance and the conditions of distillation on the acidity of the residues were studied. The experiment results showed that the all residues became neutral complex fertilizer, and the productivity of furfural increases under the following conditions: sulfuric acid concentration is 20% (by weight), the ratio of liquid to solid is 3∶1—4∶1 (by weight), the ratio of the additives to straw is suitable.展开更多

The other category, Un-Weighted Number Systems, of which the Residue Number System (RNS) belongs, do not carry weights but have not yet found widespread usage in general purpose computing as a result of some challenges;one of the main challenges of RNS is overflow detection and correction. The presence of errors in calculated values due to such factors as overflow means that systems built on this number system will continue to fail until serious steps are taken to resolve the issue. In this paper, a scheme for detecting and correcting overflow during RNS addition is presented. The proposed scheme used mixed radix digits to evaluate the magnitude of the addends in order to detect the occurrence of overflow in their sum. The scheme also demonstrated a simplified technique of correcting the overflow in the event that it occurs. An analysis of the hardware requirements and speed limitations of the scheme showed that it performs considerably better in relation to similar state of art schemes.展开更多

The arithmetic units based on these number systems were employed in designing various modulation schemes like Binary Frequency Shift Keying (BFSK) modulator/demodulator. The analysis of the performance of the proposed modulator on above mentioned number systems indicates the superiority of other number systems over binary number system.展开更多

The first algorithm is the Cyclic Property of Residue-Digit Difference (CPRDD). It is used to speed up the residue multiple error correction due to its parallel processes. The second is called the Target Race Distance (TRD). It is used to speed up residue scaling. Both of these two algorithms are used without the need for Mixed Radix Conversion (MRC) or Chinese Residue Theorem (CRT) techniques, which are time consuming and require hardware complexity. Furthermore, the residue scaling can be performed in parallel for any combination of moduli set members without using lookup tables.展开更多
