The use of reed canary-grass (Phalaris arundinacea) as a short fibre raw material for the pulp and paper industry
No full textThis thesis describes the use of delayed harvested reed canary-grass (Phalaris arundinacea) as a short fibre raw material for the pulp and paper industry. This study examines the following aspects of reed canary-grass: quality, transportation, storage, refining of the raw material by dry fractionation, chemical pulping, bleaching and paper production. The delayed harvesting method of reed canary-grass produces an economically and environmentally sustainable short fibre raw material for the pulp and paper industry. The ash content and fibre properties of reed canary-grass depend on soil type and growing location. The yearly variation in fibre yield and fibre properties is also considerable. There is, however, a potential for minimising quality variations by choosing reed canary-grass varieties suitable to a specific growing location. The leaf and leaf sheath content of reed canary-grass also affects the quality of the pulp. These quality variations can be eliminated by dry fractionation, a method that removes the unwanted parts of the grass. These unwanted parts can be used as a valuable bio-fuel raw material. Transport of reed canary grass after fractionation can be improved by briquetting, a method that doubles the transport capacity of reed canary-grass compared to that of birch logs on a fibre basis. High quality short fibre chemical pulp can be produced from reed canary-grass. The whole process from grass production to pulp production has been demonstrated successfully in full scale. Bleached reed canary-grass pulp can be used in products such as fine paper and white-top liner paper

Desenvolvimento em linguagem de descrição de hardware de codificador e decodificador Reed-Solomon
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro Tecnológico, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Engenharia Elétrica, Florianópolis, 2014.Atualmente, diversos sistemas de comunicação demandam grandes volumes de tráfego de dados para consumo quase instantâneo. Estes dados devem ser entregues aos usuários tal qual foram gerados: sem erros. Por isso, técnicas de controle e correção de erros estão intrinsecamente ligadas aos sistemas que realizam trocas de dados, sejam sistemas de armazenamento, os quais estão sujeitos a falhas durante a leitura, ou sistemas de comunicação, que estão sujeitos às adversidades do meio (radiação, interferência eletromagnética, desvanecimento, entre outros). Neste cenário, os códigos Reed-Solomon representam uma solução viável para inúmeras aplicações, bem como pesquisas acadêmicas, mesmo tanto tempo após sua invenção. Este trabalho realiza um estudo da teoria que embasa os códigos Reed-Solomon, assim como implementa as técnicas do estado-da-arte dos módulos que compõem tanto o codificador quanto o decodificador, as quais são prototipadas em hardware reconfigurável.<br

FNT-based reed-solomon erasure codes
No full textThis paper presents a new construction of Maximum-Distance Separable (MDS) Reed-Solomon erasure codes based on Fermat Number Transform (FNT). Thanks to FNT, these codes support practical coding and decoding algorithms with complexity O(n log n), where n is the number of symbols of a codeword. An open-source implementation shows that the encoding speed can reach 150Mbps for codes of length up to several 10,000s of symbols. These codes can be used as the basic component of the Information Dispersal Algorithm (IDA) system used in a several P2P systems
