The complexity of modern embedded systems has increased rapidly in the recent past. Introducing models of computation into the design flow has significantly raised the abstraction in system level design of embedded systems. Establishing such high abstraction levels in common hardware /software co-design flows is still in its infancy. H. Gregor Molter develops a hardware / software co-design flow based on the Discrete Event System Specification model of computation. He advocates that such a system level design flow should exploit a timed model of computation to allow a broad application field. The presented design flow will transform timed DEVS models to both synthesizable VHDL source code and embeddable C++ source code.
Embedded systems have been almost invisibly pervading our daily lives for several decades. They facilitate smooth operations in avionics, automotive electronics, or telecommunication. New problems arise by the increasing employment, interconnection, and communication of embedded systems in heterogeneous environments: How secure are these embedded systems against attacks or breakdowns? Therefore, how can embedded systems be designed to be more secure? How can embedded systems autonomically react to threats? Facing these questions, Sorin A. Huss is significantly involved in the exploration of design methodologies for secure embedded systems. This Festschrift is dedicated to him and his research on the occasion of his 60th birthday.
Thomas Feller sheds some light on trust anchor architectures for trustworthy reconfigurable systems. He is presenting novel concepts enhancing the security capabilities of reconfigurable hardware. Almost invisible to the user, many computer systems are embedded into everyday artifacts, such as cars, ATMs, and pacemakers. The significant growth of this market segment within the recent years enforced a rethinking with respect to the security properties and the trustworthiness of these systems. The trustworthiness of a system in general equates to the integrity of its system components. Hardware-based trust anchors provide measures to compare the system configuration to reference measurements. Reconfigurable architectures represent a special case in this regard, as in addition to the software implementation, the underlying hardware architecture may be exchanged, even during runtime.
A multifaceted exploration of what makes a home 'Jewish', materially and emotionally, and of what it takes to make Jews feel 'at home' in their environment.
People from outside of Brasília often dismiss Brazil’s capital as socially divided, boring, corrupt, and emotionally cold. Apparently its founders created not a vibrant capital, but a cultural wasteland. However, as Sophia Beal argues, Brasília’s contemporary artists are out to prove the skeptics wrong. These twenty-first-century artists are changing how people think about the city and animating its public spaces. They are recasting Brasília as a vibrant city of the arts in which cultural production affirms a creative right to the city. Various genres—prose, poetry, film, cultural journalism, music, photography, graffiti, street theater, and street dance—play a part. Brasília’s initial 1960s art was state-sanctioned, carried out mainly by privileged, white men. In contrast, the capital’s contemporary art is marked by its diversity, challenging norms about who has a voice within the Brasília art scene. This art demystifies the capital’s inequities and imagines alternative ways of inhabiting the city.
Alexander Biedermann presents a generic hardware-based virtualization approach, which may transform an array of any off-the-shelf embedded processors into a multi-processor system with high execution dynamism. Based on this approach, he highlights concepts for the design of energy aware systems, self-healing systems as well as parallelized systems. For the latter, the novel so-called Agile Processing scheme is introduced by the author, which enables a seamless transition between sequential and parallel execution schemes. The design of such virtualizable systems is further aided by introduction of a dedicated design framework, which integrates into existing, commercial workflows. As a result, this book provides comprehensive design flows for the design of embedded multi-processor systems-on-chip.
Um dos poetas mais expressivos em atividade no país, Ruy Espinheira Filho reúne suas criações líricas neste A invenção da poesia. Membro da Academia de Letras da Bahia, Ruy foi eleito um dos vinte poetas contemporâneos mais importantes do Brasil. Considerado por Carlos Drummond de Andrade um autor de uma "poesia concentrada e de sutil expressão", Ruy Espinheira Filho é consagrado pela crítica e ganhador dos principais prêmios literários do país. Neste A invenção da poesia, o poeta baiano reúne suas criações líricas produzidas entre 2019 e 2022. Divididos em três partes, os poemas revelam dores que o passado ainda remonta, voltando a sentimentos e questões que se prolong...
Neste volume de seu diário literário o autor vai além da literatura e descortina a vida por ele e pelas pessoas ao seu redor. O movimento é de um cotidiano cheio de poesia, questionamentos e reflexões.
O cotidiano de um poeta e sua vida, suas leituras e escritas.
Com amor, Simrat - Poesias para o Despertar, segundo livro de Dra. Carol Presotto - Simrat, é um chamado para despertar em Amor e escrever, de mãos dadas, este manifesto. O Amor manifesta-se como um campo: dentro aprofunda e fora transborda. Ele é consciência que integra, pois é a própria manifestação do que é universal. Por ser universal, acolhe o diverso e une as partes no Todo. Ele é a consciência que remove os véus da separação dos corações e amplia a visão limitada por certezas e narrativas únicas. Nestas poesias, você se conectará com o Amor como passagem, como presente e como revolução. E abrirá as portas do seu Ser para ser infinito no finito da vida – assim como o Amor. O livro-objeto traz a experiência sensorial da literatura. Não são apenas as palavras escritas que nos tocam, mas as cores das ilustrações, o toque, os sons ao folhear e a materialidade. Por isso nos preocupamos tanto com a qualidade do processo editorial e dos materiais que fazem o livro "Com amor, Simrat - Poesias para o Despertar" ganhar forma no mundo físico.
