This paper proposes a micro-code based Programmable Memory BIST (PMBIST) architecture that can support various kinds of test algorithms. The proposed Non-linear PMBIST (NPMBIST) guarantees high flexibility and high fault coverage using not only March algorithms but also non-linear algorithms such as Walking and Galloping. This NPMBIST has an optimized hardware overhead, since algorithms can be implemented with the minimum bits by the optimized instructions. Finally, various and complex algorithms can be run thanks to its support of multi-loop.

Today, localization of nodes in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) is a challenging problem. Especially, it is almost impossible to guarantee that one algorithm giving optimal results for one topology will give optimal results for any other random topology. In this study, we propose a centralized, range- and anchor-based, hybrid algorithm called RH+ that aims to combine the powerful features of two orthogonal techniques: Classical Multi-Dimensional Scaling (CMDS) and Particle Spring Optimization (PSO). As a result, we find that our hybrid approach gives a fast-converging solution which is resilient to range-errors and very robust to topology changes. Across all topologies we studied, the average estimation error is less than 0.5 m. when the average node density is 10 and only 2.5% of the nodes are beacons.

Diseases of the gastro-intestinal tract are becoming more prevalent. New techniques and devices, such as the wireless capsule endoscope and the telemetry capsule, that are able to measure the various signals of the digestive organs (temperature, pH, and pressure), have been developed for the observation of the digestive organs. In these capsule devices, there are no methods of moving and grasping them. In order to make a swift diagnosis and to give proper medication, it is necessary to control the moving speed of the capsule. This paper presents a wireless system for the control of movements of an electrical stimulus capsule. This includes an electrical stimulus capsule which can be swallowed and an external transmitting control system. A receiver, a receiving antenna (small multi-loop), a transmitter, and a transmitting antenna (monopole) were designed and fabricated taking into consideration the MPE, power consumption, system size, signal-to-noise ratio and the modulation method. The wireless system, which was designed and implemented for the control of movements of the electrical stimulus capsule, was verified by in-vitro experiments which were performed on the small intestines of a pig. As a result, we found that when the small intestines are contracted by electrical stimuli, the capsule can move to the opposite direction, which means that the capsule can go up or down in the small intestines.
