    Abstract
    Approximate Computing with Stochastic Transistors’ Voltage Over-scaling Introduction Approximate computing is a promising technique for error resilient applications. The intrinsic variability of the transistor (reflectedonVTH)is a concern for traditional designs. Thisworkaddresses the variation as the source of performance shaping in approximate computing. StochasticTransistorModel The physical variations are summed up into threshold voltage(VTH)variability; The variation is modeled by adding a thermal noise to the gate voltage. The added variability ensures Enoughdata points within a single transient simulation; The full spectrum of the Gaussian distribution is captured. Approximate Computing The worst-case scenario is guaranteed by assigning the obtained value “x” to the counterpart of its correct value. Voltageover-scaling scheme explores the designs pace of approximate full adder (FA) up to 16-bit. Designconsideration includes: Technology node Operating frequency Energy and delay Process corner Temperature Quantification on Approximate Adder Mean Error Distance (MED) describes the actual value of error. Mean Relative Error Distance (MRED) describes the deviation from the expected value. Image Compression Using Approximate Adder saves up to 90% energy while preserving relative quality. Conclusion The IoT (Internet of Things) operations which consist of numerous error resilient applications can benefit from this work. In conclusion, it Embraces and models the variability of the transistor; Adopts the inherent stochasticity in approximate computing; Provides design space and improved energy efficiency References R.

    The export option will allow you to export the current search results of the entered query to a file. Different formats are available for download. To export the items, click on the button corresponding with the preferred download format.

    By default, clicking on the export buttons will result in a download of the allowed maximum amount of items. For anonymous users the allowed maximum amount is 50 search results.

    To select a subset of the search results, click "Selective Export" button and make a selection of the items you want to export. The amount of items that can be exported at once is similarly restricted as the full export.

    After making a selection, click one of the export format buttons. The amount of items that will be exported is indicated in the bubble next to export format.
