2. |  Reconfigurable Computing: The Theory and Practice of FPGA-Based Computation By: Scott Hauck; Andre DeHon Publisher: Morgan Kaufmann Publication Date: 02-NOV-2007 Insert Date: 02-AUG-2009 Bookshelf Slots: 1.0 | Overview: Reconfigurable Computing: The Theory and Practice of FPGA-Based Computation The main characteristic of Reconfigurable Computing is the presence of hardware that can be reconfigured to implement specific functionality more suitable for specially tailored hardware than on a simple uniprocessor. Reconfigurable computing systems join microprocessors and programmable hardware in order to take advantage of the combined strengths of hardware and software and have been used in applications ranging from embedded systems to high performance computing. Many of the fundamental theories have been identified and used by the Hardware/Software Co-Design research field. Although the...

4. |  On-Chip Communication Architectures: System on Chip Interconnect By: Sudeep Pasricha; Nikil Dutt Publisher: Morgan Kaufmann Publication Date: 29-APR-2008 Insert Date: 28-JUL-2009 Bookshelf Slots: 1.0 | Overview: On-Chip Communication Architectures: System on Chip Interconnect Over the past decade, system-on-chip (SoC) designs have evolved to address the ever increasing complexity of applications, fueled by the era of digital convergence. Improvements in process technology have effectively shrunk board-level components so they can be integrated on a single chip. New on-chip communication architectures have been designed to support all inter-component communication in a SoC design. These communication architecture fabrics have a critical impact on the power consumption, performance, cost and design cycle time of modern SoC designs. As application complexity strains...

5. |  Designing SOCs with Configured Cores: Unleashing the Tensilica Xtensa and Diamond Cores By: Steve Leibson Publisher: Morgan Kaufmann Publication Date: 11-JUL-2006 Insert Date: 28-JUL-2009 Bookshelf Slots: 1.0 | Overview: Designing SOCs with Configured Cores: Unleashing the Tensilica Xtensa and Diamond Cores Microprocessor cores used for SOC design are the direct descendents of Intel's original 4004 microprocessor. Just as packaged microprocessor ICs vary widely in their attributes, so do microprocessors packaged as IP cores. However, SOC designers still compare and select processor cores the way they previously compared and selected packaged microprocessor ICs. The big problem with this selection method is that it assumes that the laws of the microprocessor universe have remained unchanged for decades. This assumption is no longer valid. Processor cores for SOC designs can be far more plastic...

6. |  Customizable Embedded Processors Design Technologies and Applications By: Paolo Ienne; Rainer Leupers Publisher: Morgan Kaufmann Publication Date: 14-JUL-2006 Insert Date: 28-JUL-2009 Bookshelf Slots: 1.0 | Overview: Customizable Embedded Processors Design Technologies and Applications Customizable processors have been described as the next natural step in the evolution of the microprocessor business: a step in the life of a new technology where top performance alone is no longer sufficient to guarantee market success. Other factors become fundamental, such as time to market, convenience, energy efficiency, and ease of customization. This book is the first to explore comprehensively one of the most fundamental trends which emerged in the last decade: to treat processors not as rigid, fixed entities, which designers include "as is" in their products; but rather, to build...

7. |  By: Peter Ashenden; Jim Lewis Publisher: Morgan Kaufmann Publication Date: 26-NOV-2007 Insert Date: 25-JUL-2009 Bookshelf Slots: 1.0 | Overview: VHDL-2008: Just the New Stuff VHDL-2008: Just the New Stuff, as its title says, introduces the new features added to the latest revision of the IEEE standard for the VHDL hardware description language. Written by the Chair and Technical Editor of the IEEE working group, the book is an authoritative guide to how the new features work and how to use them to improve design productivity. It will be invaluable for early adopters of the new language version, for tool implementers, and for those just curious about where VHDL is headed....

9. |  By: David Robinson Publisher: Morgan Kaufmann Publication Date: 17-AUG-2007 Insert Date: 09-JUL-2009 Bookshelf Slots: 1.0 | What's this AOP thing anyway, really-when you get right down to it-and can someone please explain what an aspect actually is? Aspect-Oriented Programming with the e Verification Language takes a pragmatic, example based, and fun approach to unraveling the mysteries of AOP. In this book, you'll learn how to: Use AOP to organize your code in a way that makes it easy to deal with the things you really care about in your verification environments. Forget about organizing by classes, and start organizing by functionality, layers, components, protocols, functional coverage, checking, or anything...
