Book Synopsis Concurrency and Hardware Design by : Jordi Cortadella
Download or read book Concurrency and Hardware Design written by Jordi Cortadella. This book was released on 2003-07-01. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As CMOS semiconductor technology strides towards billions of transistors on a single die new problems arise on the way. They are concerned with the - minishing fabrication process features, which a?ect for example the gate-to-wire delay ratio. They manifest themselves in greater variations of size and operating parameters of devices, which put the overall reliability of systems at risk. And, most of all, they have tremendous impact on design productivity, where the costs of utilizing the growing silicon ‘real estate’ rocket to billions of dollars that have to be spent on design, veri?cation, and testing. All such problems call for new - sign approaches and models for digital systems. Furthermore, new developments in non-CMOS technologies, such as single-electron transistors, rapid single-?- quantum devices, quantum dot cells, molecular devices, etc. , add extra demand for new research in system design methodologies. What kind of models and design methodologies will be required to build systems in all these new technologies? Answering this question, even for each particular type of new technology generation, is not easy, especially because sometimes it is not even clear what kind of elementary devices are feasible there. This problem is of an interdisciplinary nature. It requires an bridges between di?erent scienti?c communities. The bridges must be built very quickly, and be maximally ?exible to accommodate changes taking place in a logarithmic timescale.

Book Synopsis Concurrent Hardware by : Michael Kishinevsky
Download or read book Concurrent Hardware written by Michael Kishinevsky. This book was released on 1993-12-08. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examines the theory and design of self-timed systems. The logical design of self-timed circuits (STCs) provides a focal point for, on the one hand, those interested in formal models of parallel computation and, on the other, hardware designers. The approach taken by the authors is to address general issues concerning the very nature of concurrency, as well as to demonstrate the particular features of asynchronous design. The book presents formal models of the specification and verification of parallel processes and describes methods for self-timed circuit synthesis and analysis. It is augmented by a demonstration-version of a CAD system called FORCAGE which consists of subsystems of behavior verification, self-timed circuit analysis and synthesis. The system can be run on a PC.

Book Synopsis The Theory and Practice of Concurrency by : A. W. Roscoe
Download or read book The Theory and Practice of Concurrency written by A. W. Roscoe. This book was released on 1998. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since Professor Hoare's book Communicating Sequential Processes was first published, his notation has been extensively used for teaching and applying concurrency theory. The most significant development since then has been the emergence of tools to support the teaching and industrial application of CSP. This has turned CSP from a notation used mainly for toy examples into one which can and does support the description of industrial-sized problems. In order to understand the tools you need a good grasp of the fundamental concepts of CSP, therefore the book is, in the first instance, a text on the principles of the language rather than being a manual on how to apply its tools. The Theory and Practice of Concurrency is divided into 3 sections. Part I is a foundation course on CSP, covering essentially the same material as the Hoare book, except that most of the mathematical theory has been omitted. It introduces the ideas behind the operational, denotational and algebraic models of CSP. Parts II and III go into more detail about the theory and practice of CSP. Either of them would make a one semester course or though they are independent of each other. This book assumes no mathematical knowledge except for a basic understanding of sets, sequences and functions. Part I and III use no sophisticated mathematics, and the extra amount needed for Part II is contained within Appendix A (which introduces the theory of partial order and metric/restriction spaces). The book brings substantial new insights into the important subjects of computer security, fault tolerance, real-time modelling, communications protocols and distributed databases. Each of these is supported by a case study and guidance on how to apply automated analysis to verify systems.

Book Synopsis Theory and Practice of Geometric Modeling by : Wolfgang Straßer
Download or read book Theory and Practice of Geometric Modeling written by Wolfgang Straßer. This book was released on 2012-12-06. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a result of the lectures and discussions during the conference "Theory and Practice of Geometric Modeling". The event has been organized by the Wilhelm-Schickard-Institut fiir Informatik, Universitat Tiibingen and took place at the Heinrich-Fabri-Institut in Blaubeuren from October 3 to 7, 1988. The conference brought together leading experts from academic and industrial research institutions, CAD system developers and experien ced users to exchange their ideas and to discuss new concepts and future directions in geometric modeling. The main intention has been to bridge the gap between theoretical results, performance of existing CAD systems and the real problems of users. The contents is structured in five parts: A Algorithmic Aspects B Surface Intersection, Blending, Ray Tracing C Geometric Tools D Different Representation Schemes in Solid Modeling E Product Modeling in High Level Specifications The material presented in this book reflects the current state of the art in geometric modeling and should therefore be of interest not only to university and industry researchers, but also to system developers and practitioners who wish to keep up to date on recent advances and new concepts in this rapidly expanding field. The editors express their sincere appreciation to the contributing authors, and to the members of the program committee, W. Boehm, J. Hoschek, A. Massabo, H. Nowacki, M. Pratt, J. Rossignac, T. Sederberg and W. Tiller, for their close cooperation and their time and effort that made the conference and this book a success.
