Optimized ASIP Synthesis from Architecture Description Language Models
Author: Oliver SchliebuschPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1402056869
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
New software tools and a sophisticated methodology above RTL are required to answer the challenges of designing an optimized application specific processor (ASIP). This book offers an automated and fully integrated implementation flow and compares it to common implementation practice. It provides case-studies that emphasize that neither the architectural advantages nor the design space of ASIPs are sacrificed for an automated implementation.
High Throughput VLSI Architectures for Iterative Decoders
Author: Engling YeoExplanation Within the Bounds of Religion
Author: Wilko van HoltenPublisher: Peter Lang Gmbh, Internationaler Verlag Der Wissenschaften
ISBN: 9783631508121
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 564
Book Description
This book deals with the question of whether religious worldviews fulfil an explanatory function in the lives of believers. After rebutting some common objections to this claim, the author proposes to understand the explanatory nature of religious belief along the lines of inference to the best explanation. This proposal is qualified in view of the peculiar nature of religious belief: It is stressed that the type of explanation concerned occurs within the bounds of religion alone, and loses its sense apart from the religious form of life. In unfolding his argument, the author draws heavily on ideas of explanation developed in the philosophy of science, pointing to differences and comparisons between religious and scientific explanations. The author concludes by considering some specific things that theism explains.

Book Description
High Throughput Iterative Decoders: Towards Shannon Bound in VLSI addresses the algorithms and implementations of iterative decoders for error control in communication applications. The iterative codes are based on various concatenated schemes of convolutional codes, also known as turbo codes, and low density parity check (LDPC) codes. The decoding alogirthms are instances of message passing or belief propagation algorithms, which rely on the iterative cooperation between soft-decoding modules known as soft-input-Iterative decoding is a recent advacement in communication theory that is applicable to wireless, wireline, and optical communicatiosn systems. It promises significant advantage in bit-error rate (BER) performance at signal to noise ratios very close to the theoretical capacity bound. However, a direct mapping of the decoding algorithms leads to a multifold increase in the implementation complexity. As deep submicron technology matures, there is a possibility of implementing these applications that were once thought to be too complex to fit onto a single silicon die. We present the architectural and implementation issues related to the VLSI implementation of high throughput iterative decoders. The computational hardware and memory requirements of different competing architectures are discussed. This monograph also introduces reduced complexity modifications of algorithms that provide efficient mapping into architectures and VLSI implementations.
