This module contains the full compilation of testing results for the filter bank project.

Testing parameters

All data was collected on a laptop equipped with an AMD A6-3400M “Llano” quad-core processor which supports a clock rate of up to 2.3 GHz.

Test Parameters
Test Filter 4-pole Butterworth bandpass filter
Input channels 256
Time samples 600,000
Data filter cycles 100
Compiler GCC

The following results tables show the individual parameters of experiments, averaged run times of the program and an indicator of the real-time processing speed of the program (the formula to generate this figure is shown in the equation below).

F s N t = F s t N

where F s = sampling rate of incoming data (samples/sec), N = number of samples processed by filter bank (samples), and t = time to process all samples (sec).

Implementations of posix threads

4 tests under various PThread control conditions demonstrate similar patterns according to thenumber of PThreads used during code execution. Compiler Intrinsics : Implementation with naive data structures relying purely on compiler optimizations of SSE3 intrinsics Our Intrinsics : Implementation with naive data structures using our custom SSE3 intrinsics code Partial Reordering : Implementation assigning an output vector to each thread utilizing compiler intrinsics Full Reordering : Intermediate variables are aligned by channel and separated by thread

Comparison of initial optimizations to posix thread implementation

Both tests show code execution times based on different methods of compiler optimization. Test 1 allowed for unique filter coefficients and test 2 had constant coefficients. Both tests used inefficient data arrangement.

Our optimal filter design incorporated a combination of several of the methods we used to optimize our filter bank implementation. It made use of compiler-level optimization, SSE instructions, and POSIX threads. It processed 60 million samples for each of the 256 channels in 33.589 seconds. Assuming a 25 KHz sampling rate, each second of of data is processed in 14 milliseconds (25 KS/s) and thus acceptable for real-time processing.

How bacteria create energy to survive?
Muhamad Reply
Bacteria doesn't produce energy they are dependent upon their substrate in case of lack of nutrients they are able to make spores which helps them to sustain in harsh environments
_Adnan
But not all bacteria make spores, l mean Eukaryotic cells have Mitochondria which acts as powerhouse for them, since bacteria don't have it, what is the substitution for it?

explain assimilatory nitrate reduction
Esinniobiwa Reply
Assimilatory nitrate reduction is a process that occurs in some microorganisms, such as bacteria and archaea, in which nitrate (NO3-) is reduced to nitrite (NO2-), and then further reduced to ammonia (NH3).
Elkana
This process is called assimilatory nitrate reduction because the nitrogen that is produced is incorporated in the cells of microorganisms where it can be used in the synthesis of amino acids and other nitrogen products
