Progress in Applications of Boolean Functions (Synthesis Lectures on Digital Circuits and Systems)
by Tsutomu Sasao and Jon Butler
This book brings together five topics on the application of Boolean functions. They are:1. Equivalence classes of Boolean functions: The number of n-variable functions is large, even for values as small as n = 6, and there has been much research on classifying functions. There are many classifications, each with their own distinct merit.2. Boolean functions for cryptography: The process of encrypting/decrypting plaintext messages often depends on Boolean functions with specific properties. For e...
Views on Evolvability of Embedded Systems (Embedded Systems)
Evolvability, the ability to respond effectively to change, represents a major challenge to today's high-end embedded systems, such as those developed in the medical domain by Philips Healthcare. These systems are typically developed by multi-disciplinary teams, located around the world, and are in constant need of upgrading to provide new advanced features, to deal with obsolescence, and to exploit emerging enabling technologies. Despite the importance of evolvability for these types of systems...
Asynchronous Sequential Machine Design and Analysis (Synthesis Lectures on Digital Circuits and Systems)
by Richard Tinder
Asynchronous Sequential Machine Design and Analysis provides a lucid, in-depth treatment of asynchronous state machine design and analysis presented in two parts: Part I on the background fundamentals related to asynchronous sequential logic circuits generally, and Part II on self-timed systems, high-performance asynchronous programmable sequencers, and arbiters. Part I provides a detailed review of the background fundamentals for the design and analysis of asynchronous finite state machines (F...
This book is about interfacing personal computers using C. Readers will also find this a practical introduction to real-time programming with a generous collection of tried and tested programs. The principles precede the applications in most cases in an attempt to provide genuine understanding and encourage further development.
Scalable Shared-Memory Multiprocessing
by Daniel E Lenoski and Wolf-Dietrich Weber
Dr. Lenoski and Dr. Weber have experience with leading-edge research and practical issues involved in implementing large-scale parallel systems. They were key contributors to the architecture and design of the DASH multiprocessor. Currently, they are involved with commercializing scalable shared-memory technology.

Pragmatic Power (Synthesis Lectures on Digital Circuits and Systems)
by William Eccles
Pragmatic Power is focused on just three aspects of the AC electrical power system that supplies and moves the vast majority of electrical energy nearly everywhere in the world: three-phase power systems, transformers, and induction motors. The reader needs to have had an introduction to electrical circuits and AC power, although the text begins with a review of the basics of AC power. Balanced three-phase systems are studied by developing their single-phase equivalents. The study includes a loo...
Fuzzy Logic and Applications (Lecture Notes in Computer Science, #8256) (Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence, #5571)
This volume constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the 6th International Workshop on Fuzzy Logic and Applications held in September 2005. The 50 revised full papers and 32 short papers presented together with three invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 86 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on neuro-fuzzy systems, fuzzy logic and possibility theory, pattern recognition, evolutionary algorithms, control, bioinformatics, image proc...
