From the reviews: "This book crystallizes what may become a defining moment in the electronics industry - the shift to platform-based design. It provides the first comprehensive guidebook for those who will build, and use, the integration platforms that may soon drive the system-on-chip revolution." Electronic Engineering Times

The advantages of computer-aided systems in spacecraft design, manufacture and operation are now widely recognized. Computers are indispensable in every field of activity relating to spacecraft, from the initial conceptual design and feasibility study to the actual construction and launch into space, with the subsequent operation being controlled from ground stations. This book contains the edited version of some of the papers on topics in spacecraft design and operation presented at the first i...

In der vorliegenden Veroffentlichung wird die Entwicklung eines wissensbasierten Tools aufgezeigt, das den Planer bei der Auswahl von Industrierobotern unterstutzt, die fur eine vorliegende Anwendung geeignet sind. Ausgangspunkt ist eine Formalisierung des Entscheidungsprozesses bei der Auswahl von Industrierobotern. Diese Formalisierung bildet die Grundlage fur die Konzeption des wissensbasierten Systems. Die wesentlichen Wissenszusammenhange und die Methodik zur Auswahl von Industrierobotern w...

"Reuse Methodology Manual for System-on-a-Chip Designs, Third Edition" outlines a set of best practices for creating reusable designs for use in an SoC design methodology. These practices are based on the authors' experience in developing reusable designs, as well as the experience of design teams in many companies around the world. Silicon and tool technologies move so quickly that many of the details of design-for-reuse will undoubtedly continue to evolve over time. But the fundamental aspects...

AutoCAD is the industry-leading CAD software. The latest release will include a new Tools palette, full true-colour support, graphic enhancements such as gradient fills, digital signatures, improved Xref management tools, and the return of Express Tools. This book works as both a tutorial and a stand-alone reference book. It features comprehensive coverage of both AutoCAD and AutoCAD LT.

This book deals with energy delivery challenges of the power processing unit of modern computer microprocessors. It describes in detail the consequences of current trends in miniaturization and clock frequency increase, upon the power delivery unit, referred to as voltage regulator. This is an invaluable reference for anybody needing to understand the key performance limitations and opportunities for improvement, from both a circuit and systems perspective, of state-of-the-art power solutions f...

This book contains extended and revised versions of the best papers presented at the 23rd IFIP WG 10.5/IEEE International Conference on Very Large Scale Integration, VLSI-SoC 2015, held in Daejeon, Korea, in October 2015. The 10 papers included in the book were carefully reviewed and selected from the 44 full papers presented at the conference. The papers cover a wide range of topics in VLSI technology and advanced research. They address the current trend toward increasing chip integration and t...

This textbook describes the commands necessary to draw two-dimensional images on AutoCAD Release II. It is comprised of a visual map to show the student how to select a specific command and then how to follow the necessary command sequences. The text assumes that students have no experience in computers, and guides them through the basic workstation elements as well as the required DOS commands. Dialogue boxes, icons, menu maps and pull down menus give students visual learning tools for quick as...

Modern electronics depend on nanoscaled technologies that present new challenges in terms of testing and diagnostics. Memories are particularly prone to defects since they exploit the technology limits to get the highest density. This book is an invaluable guide to the testing and diagnostics of the latest generation of SRAM, one of the most widely applied types of memory. Classical methods for testing memory are designed to handle the so-called "static faults," but these test solutions are not...

Die vorliegende Dissertation entstand wahrend meiner Tiitigkeit als wissenschaft- Hcher Mitarbeiter am Institut fiir Werkzeugmaschinen und Betriebswissenschaf- ten (iwb) der Technischen Universitat Munchen. Besonders danken m5chte ich Herrn Prof. Dr.-Ing. J. Milberg, dem Leiter des Instituts, der mir die Bearbeitung der Thematik ermoglichte und mich sowohl von den apparativen Rahmenbedingungen her als auch durch kritische Anregun- gen und wertvolle Hinweise meine Arbeit stets wohlwollend unterst...

Dieses Buch dient dem Praktiker und Fabrikplaner als Nach- schlagewerk und Arbeitsunterlage, mit dessen Hilfe er die Probleme angehen kann, die bei derIntegration von verschiedenen Komponenten in der Fabrik auftreten. Dazu werden in diesem Band nicht nur Schnittstellen zwischen Rechnern oder Programmen behandelt. Dar}ber hinaus finden auch Nahtstellen zwischen Menschund Maschine, Maschine und Transporteinrichtungen sowie Werkst}ck und Werkzeug Beachtung. Die theoretischen Grundlagen hierzu werd...

Hardware Design and Petri Nets presents a summary of the state of the art in the applications of Petri nets to designing digital systems and circuits. The area of hardware design has traditionally been a fertile field for research in concurrency and Petri nets. Many new ideas about modelling and analysis of concurrent systems, and Petri nets in particular, originated in theory of asynchronous digital circuits. Similarly, the theory and practice of digital circuit design have always reco...

Recent advances in VLSI technologies have allowed larger and more complex designs. CAD systems using Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques play the most important role in their short-term realization. This book contains 27 research papers reporting on the various technical fields in VLSI CAD. It is a coordinated collection of papers from researchers in the USA, Europe and Japan. The main topics covered are logic design using AI techniques, and expert systems, every paper offering an effective...

This tutorial is the ideal tool for beginners getting started with powerful design and production tools from Parametric Technology Corporation. This book provides an overview of basic PT/Modeler commands. Because PT/Modeler is a derivative of the Pro/ENGINEER package and the interfaces are virtually identical, this text can also be used to learn the basics of Pro/ENGINEER. This manual presents basic concepts in an efficient, accessible way, allowing the user to get up and running quickly. Topics...
