This book is about the management of business processes. This is certainly
not a new topic. Since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, it
has been written about from every possible point of view—economic,
sociological, psychological, accountancy, mechanical engineering and
business administration. In this book, we examine the management of
business processes from the perspective of computing, or—to put it more
broadly—of information technology. The reason is that information
technology has made huge leaps forward in recent years, resulting in
the creation of completely new ways of organizing business processes.
The development of generic software packages for managing business
processes—so-called workflow management systems (WFMS)—is particularly
important in this respect.
I believe that technology has the capacity to fundamentally improve people’s lives, and
improve the world in which we live.We are now two years into what my company have
called the ‘Digital Decade’.We think that by 2010 a combination of hardware and software
innovation with broader social trends will change the way computing fits into our society.
Mobile technology is a central part of this vision.
CORDIC (Coordinate Rotation Digital Computer) is a method for computing elementary functions using minimal hardware such as shifts, adds/subs and compares.
CORDIC works by rotating the coordinate system through constant angles until the angle is reduces to zero. The angle offsets are selected such that the operations on X and Y are only shifts and adds.
C++ Network Programming, Volume 2, focuses on ACE frameworks, providing thorough coverage of the concepts, patterns, and usage rules that form their structure. This book is a practical guide to designing object-oriented frameworks and shows developers how to apply frameworks to concurrent networked applications. C++ Networking, Volume 1, introduced ACE and the wrapper facades, which are basic network computing ingredients. Volume 2 explains how frameworks build on wrapper facades to provide higher-level communication services.
this a pack include source code for quartus 2.
It is an implementation of the LC2. The LC-2 computer is described in Introduction to Computing Systems from Bits & Gates to C & Beyond by Yale Patt and Sanjay Patel, McGraw Hill, 2001. The LC2 model can be run as a simulation or downloaded to the UP3 in a larger model, TOP_LC2 that adds video output. Push buttons reset and single step the processor and a video output display of registers is generated. This state machine VHDL-based model of the LC-2 includes all source files. Currently compiled for a Cyclone EP1C6Q240 FPGA.

It can be argued that the current free-software movement is the most important
thing happening in computing today. We are in the midst of a major shift from
all software being proprietary and closely held by individual companies to a large
body of software that can be freely acquired and used by anyone for any purpose.
Free software now includes not only programming language compilers and linkers,
but numerous utilities, graphical user interface environments, and even entire
operating systems.
For a programming language, Fortran has been around a long time. It was one
of the first widely used 鈥渉igh-level鈥?languages, as well as the first
programming language to be standardized. It is still the premier language for
scientific and engineering computing applications.
The purpose of this handbook is to describe the latest version of this language,
Fortran 90. This chapter gives some history of the development and
standardization of Fortran and describes the notation used to specify the
syntax of Fortran 90.
