When does epidemic disease disrupt society to the point where it becomes a political crisis? In the early 1980s, almost unnoticed in the larger drama that was AIDS, over half of hemophiliacs and a large number of blood transfusion recipients were infected with toxic blood contaminated with HIV. The French public's "discovery" of this catastrophe in the early 1990s created a transformative political crisis; this same discovery in the United States went largely unnoticed. In The Social Production of Crisis, Constance A. Nathanson and Henri Bergeron focus on a profoundly troubling story to present a detailed case comparative analysis not only of the catastrophe itself and its multiple retrospec...
This book presents a coherent introduction to and an overview of state-of-the-art techniques in the design of complex embedded systems. The volume brings together revised papers initially presented at a workshop held at Samos, Greece, in July and reviewed invited articles. The papers are organized in topical sections on system-level design and simulation, compiler and mapping technology, embedded processor and architectures, and applications.
