Whereas robots are and will be increasingly present in all areas of society, robotics can be limited by its narrow perspective, often neglegecting discussions about its own goals, epistemology, ethics, and socio-political impacts. In order to try to adress this issue, this article proposes a holistic analysis of robots and robotics. Taking into these blind spots, raising new challenges. In response, the second part proposes a set of guidelines : a new epistemology, a metaethical framework, an organization method and a template design in order to answer these challenges.

“…On the scale of single-chip designs, a phase synchronizer is highly desirable to allow resilience against the significant timing uncertainty in crosschip connections [5]. On the scale of larger systems, unless synchronization recovery of data across unknown phases can be achieved, scaling to large multi-chip modules envisioned by system architects [12], [13] may be intractable.…”

An adiabatic quantum flux parametron (AQFP) is a two-terminal superconducting device capable of amplifying or inverting digital input signals at near-kT energy dissipation. This ultra-low power device is desirable for myriad reasons, including high performance accelerator applications as CMOS processors become more and more limited by energy consumption. Promising performance results have been realized on AQFP processors; however, scaling these results to larger computing systems faces engineering challenges due to device density and power distribution. AQFP circuits require a multi-phase activation signal to propagate logic. If data is not properly aligned with the activation phase, it can be dropped or shifted to an incorrect phase and disrupt circuit operation. This work presents design and simulation of an activation phase synchronizer: a simple circuit that will accept data arriving on any phase and re-align it to a known phase of the subsequent cycle. The phase synchronizer can be useful for mitigating clock skew across clock domains or play an important role in asynchronous design where the arrival time of data may be unknown.
