Prof. Liang Haojun from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) proposed a new method to escape from metastability for self-assembly in a ...

Modern SoCs are equipped with complex reset architectures to meet the requirements of high-speed interfaces with increased functionality. These complex reset architectures with multiple reset domains, ...

Metastability and random walks constitute central paradigms in the study of stochastic processes, providing deep insights into transient phenomena and long-term dynamics in complex systems.

Perhaps the last time you overdrank, your intention was to just go out and have a couple of drinks with a friend. Instead, you wound up staying out until 2 a.m., having more shots than you can ...

Metastability can cause a spacecraft electronic failure. It may render a very expensive spacecraft/satellite unusable and if the spacecraft is manned, there could be lives in danger. A simple D ...

Fidget poppers are an example of “bistability,” as the popped circles rest in one of two stable states. Purdue University researchers have taken this idea to its extreme, building robots that can be ...

The phenomenon of metastability -- when a system is in a state that is stable but not the one of least energy -- is widely observed in nature and technology. Yet, many aspects underlying the ...

Here are some of the main reasons why metastability may occur in our designs and some of the ways in which we can mitigate its effects In my previous column, we introduced the concept of setup and ...
