Chapter 1 - What is programming? In this chapter we will: demonstrate some problem-solving techniques needed in programming, design an algorithm to solve a problem, write a program to implement an algorithm, discuss the importance of object-oriented programming, discuss some basics of computer hardw[r]
6.2.3 Synthesis in the Design Process Synthesis starts as the individual designers are developing the subblocks of the macro, and is initially performed with a single technology library. Later, during the producti- zation phase, the. entire macro is synthesized to multiple libraries to e[r]
A major WSN challenge lies in maximizing network coverage area. Given that many of the “off-the-shelf" sensor node platforms operate using low power wireless sensor technologies, transmission range is extremely limited, especially in the indoor environment. A multihop or mesh ne[r]
Stage 1: Having identified some problem areas for the class, the teacher makes a list of instructions containing these. Below is such a list. 1. Draw a sheep on the board. (Spanish speakers often draw a ship). 2. Write the letter "P" above the sheep. (Arabic speakers often[r]
The last type of output data that the designer can examine is the netlist for the design in the target technology. This output is a gate or macro-level output in a format compatible with the place and route tools that are used to implement the design in the target chip. For[r]
Unlike wired line communications, wireless systems must share a common transmission medium. The available spectrum is therefore limited, and so channel capacity (i.e., the amount of information that can be carried per unit bandwidth) is directly associated with profit. The demand for greater[r]
Piled embankment reinforced geosynthetics are used as integrated foundation systems for construction of embankment over soft ground. Several design guidelines are available in the literature for these embankments based on the soil arching and tensioned membrane theories. However, among design engine[r]
Current work targets the area optimization of the architecture generated by GAUT through an approach based on iterative refinement. The integration of Con- trol and Data Flow Graph CDFG model to be used as internal representation is also in progress. The loop transformations will be addressed during[r]

Several studies have been presented on unidirec- tional MAC. Prakash [66] pointed out some of the issues to be taken care of in unidirectional link net- works. In a network of devices having heteroge- neous power levels, when a low power node tries to reserve the channel[r]
The main aim of any design is to develop a target system that implements the prescribed functionality, constrained by the given set of requirements, in time and with minimal costs. One way to achieving the goal and, at some extent, minimiz- ing the allocated resources is to learn the <[r]
Consequently, when researchers do add additional functionality, such as ADC and light sensors (Namjun et al., 2005) (Kocer & Flynn, 2006), the focus is on the device and is not driven by any particular applications. It is important to note that custom IC tag design will undoubtedly off[r]
