Abstract:
A new optical parallel arithmetic processing scheme using a nonholographic optoelectronic content-addressable memory (CAM) is discussed. The design of a four-bit CAM-based optical carry look-ahead adder (CLA) is presented. Compared with existing optoelectronic binary addition approaches, this nonholographic CAM scheme offers a number of practical advantages, such as faster processing speed and ease of optical implementation and alignment. For the addition of numbers longer than four bits, by incorporating the previous stages' carry, a number of four-bit CLA's can be cascaded. Experimental results are also presented.

Phasor Arithmetics
When the derivative of a sinusoid is taken in the time domain, it transforms into its corresponding phasor multiplied by j-omega (jω) in the phasor domain, where j is the imaginary unit, and ω is the angular frequency.

Trihybrid Crosses
Some of Mendel’s crosses examined three pairs of contrasting characteristics. Such a cross is called a trihybrid cross. A trihybrid cross is a combination of three individual monohybrid crosses. For example, plant height (tall vs. short), seed shape (round vs. wrinkled), and seed color (yellow vs. green).
The F1 generation plants of a trihybrid cross are heterozygous for all three traits and produce eight gametes. Upon self-fertilization, these gametes have an equal chance to...
