After two prominent nations of the world destroy each other with nuclear power, the rest of the world tries to fill in the power void and save civilization from a spreading war. The pope, who has received a mandate from the Holy Virgin to set up the kingdom of God, charges the European Union and other power groups to include God in their endeavors. Increasing his political power over the heads of Europe, he finds himself challenged by Jews preaching about the Lamb of God who steal both Catholic and Protestant church members. Consequently, Ansel Edersohn, a preacher in Belgium, and fellow 'Lambers' come under fierce inquisition-like persecution, instigated by the pope. Meanwhile, the IDF delays David and Rachel's wedding plans by sending David on a secret mission. Follow these beloved characters along with J. Leucus Adoni and Prime Minister Ra'amon as Israel faces yet another war in the second installment of J. E. Becker's The Armageddon Trilogy, The Sign of the End. Will David and Rachel's relationship survive the coming of Messiah? What will happen to Israel's 'faithful' on Yom Kippur? Watch the prophetic events unfold in The Sign of the End."

In Ethnography in Today's World, anthropologist Roger Sanjek addresses the essential practice and purpose of ethnography in ethnically diverse settings. Drawing on decades of globe-spanning fieldwork, he examines how ethnographic fieldwork is and can be conceived, conducted, and communicated in today's interconnected world.
"This book provides innovative behavior models currently used for developing embedded systems, accentuating on graphical and visual notations"--Provided by publisher.
This extensive and increasing use of embedded systems and their integration in everyday products mark a significant evolution in information science and technology. Nowadays embedded systems design is subject to seamless integration with the physical and electronic environment while meeting requirements like reliability, availability, robustness, power consumption, cost, and deadlines. Thus, embedded systems design raises challenging problems for research, such as security, reliable and mobile services, large-scale heterogeneous distributed systems, adaptation, component-based development, and validation and tool-based certification. This book results from the ARTIST FP5 project funded by the European Commision. By integration 28 leading European research institutions with many top researchers in the area, this book assesses and strategically advances the state of the art in embedded systems. The coherently written monograph-like book is a valuable source of reference for researchers active in the field and serves well as an introduction to scientists and professionals interested in learning about embedded systems design.
This title covers all software-related aspects of SoC design, from embedded and application-domain specific operating systems to system architecture for future SoC. It will give embedded software designers invaluable insights into the constraints imposed by the use of embedded software in an SoC context.
"A Rip-Roaring Series Opener!" - Kirkus Reviews The time for hiding is finished. The dead are restless. Fate and destiny collide.
