Ideal for a first course in digital electronics, yet comprehensive enough for use by students at the senior design project level and EET professionals, Digital Design with CPLD Applications and VHDL uses programmable logic as the primary vehicle for instructing readers in the principles of digital design. More specifically, emphasis is on Complex Programmable Logic Devices (CPLDs) and the software tools used for their programming, with a decided shift away from fixed-function SSI and MSI devices. Immediately following discussion of digital fundamentals (e.g., Boolean algebra, logic minimization, combinational and sequential circuits), Digital Design with CPLD Applications and VHDL introduces its readers to Complex Programmable Logic Devices (CPLDs). ...

This brand new title provides an insight into the rich diversity of techniques, tools and knowledge used in performance engineering, covering the whole life cycle - from design through to operation - of both networks and systems. Performance modelling is discussed as an essential technique, providing the ability to predict performance through a quantitative understanding of how varying demand affects the behavior of a system or network. Performance testing is analyzed, offering the final opportunity to address the concerns of economic pressures pushing the identification and resolution of performances further down the supplier chain.Also available:Mobile and Wireless Communications: Key Technologies and Future Applications - ISBN 0863413684Carrier Sc...

A substantially updated edition of 'Video Coding: An Introduction to Standard Codecs'(IEE/1999) this book discusses the growth of digital television technology and the revolution in image and video compression (such as JPEG2000, broadcast TV, video phone), highlighting the need for standardization in processing static and moving images and their exchange between computer systems. ITU and ISO/IEC standards are now widely accepted in the picture/video coding field. This book gives an authoritative explanation of picture and video coding algorithms, working from basic principles through to the advanced video compression systems now being developed. One of its main objectives is to describe the reasons behind the introduction of a standard codec for a sp...
