Applications of Specification and Design Languages for Socs: Selected Papers from Fdl 2005
by A Vachoux
This volume contains the proceedings of CONCURRENCY 88, an international conference on formal methods for distributed systems, held October 18-19, 1988 in Hamburg. CONCURRENCY 88 responded to great interest in the field of formal methods as a means of mastering the complexity of distributed systems. In addition, the impulse was determined by the fact that the various methodological approaches, such as constructive or property oriented methods, have not had an extensive comparative analysis nor h...
Create low power, higher performance circuits with shorter design times using this practical guide to asynchronous design. This practical alternative to conventional synchronous design enables performance close to full-custom designs with design times that approach commercially available ASIC standard cell flows. It includes design trade-offs, specific design examples, and end-of-chapter exercises. Emphasis throughout is placed on practical techniques and real-world applications, making this ide...
This book provides coverage of the Business and Technician Education council (BTEC) level NIII unit in Microprocessor Interfacing (syllabus U86/335). However, it can be regarded as a textbook in interfacing for a much wider range of studies. The text concentrates on the widely used 6502, Z80 and 6800/02 microprocessor families, details of which are contained in Heinemann's Checkbook Series, "Microelectronic Systems NII/NIII. Basic details of typical interfacing devices for each of these micropro...

Machine Learning in VLSI Computer-Aided Design
This book provides readers with an up-to-date account of the use of machine learning frameworks, methodologies, algorithms and techniques in the context of computer-aided design (CAD) for very-large-scale integrated circuits (VLSI). Coverage includes the various machine learning methods used in lithography, physical design, yield prediction, post-silicon performance analysis, reliability and failure analysis, power and thermal analysis, analog design, logic synthesis, verification, and neuromorp...
This textbook provides a starter's guide to Verilog, to be used in conjunction with a one-semester course in Digital Systems Design, or on its own for readers who only need an introduction to the language. This book is designed to match the way the material is actually taught in the classroom. Topics are presented in a manner which builds foundational knowledge before moving onto advanced topics. The author has designed the presentation with learning goals and assessment at its core. Each secti...
he very name application-specific integrated circuit, or ASIC, con T notes an ability to provide a dense package for a highly complex design targeted at a focused, often complex solution. The ability to create customized high-performance designs has come of age, facilitated by so phisticated tools that enable designers to cope with ever-increasing de mands for added product functionality, features, and complexity. Most designers are trained in the traditional methods of approaching complex digit...
Concurrent Reactive Plans (Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence, #1772) (Lecture Notes in Computer Science, #1772)
by Michael Beetz
In this book, the author presents a new computational model of forestalling common flaws in autonomous robot behavior. To this end, robots are equipped with structured reactive plans (SRPs) which are concurrent control programs that can not only be interpreted but also be reasoned about and manipulated. The author develops a representation for SRPs in which declarative statements for goals, perceptions, and beliefs make the structure and purpose of SRPs explicit and thereby simplify and speed up...
Advances in Imaging and Electron Physics merges two long-running serials--Advances in Electronics and Electron Physics and Advances in Optical and Electron Microscopy. This series features extended articles on the physics of electron devices (especially semiconductor devices), particle optics at high and low energies, microlithography, image science and digital image processing, electromagnetic wave propagation, electron microscopy, and the computing methods used in all these domains.
The overall aim of this book is to gain an appreciation of the impact of computer architecture on software. The authors do not aim to teach assembler programming as yet another programming language. This is because very few applications need to be programmed in assembler, and therefore, few people program in assembler directly. Instead they focus on the programming concepts behind assembler language in general and the 68000 series in particular. What the reader should gain as a result of followi...
Field-Programmable Logic (Lecture Notes in Computer Science, #849)
by Reiner Hartenstein and Michal Z Servbit
The papers contained in this volume were presented at the third international Workshop on Implementing Automata, held September 17{19,1998, at the U- versity of Rouen, France. Automata theory is the cornerstone of computer science theory. While there is much practical experience with using automata, this work covers diverse - eas,includingparsing,computationallinguistics,speechrecognition,textsear- ing,device controllers,distributed systems, andprotocolanalysis.Consequently, techniques that have...
