  • Msc THESIS Exploiting the Reconfigurability of Ρ-VEX Processor for Real-Time Robotic Applications
    Computer Engineering 2016 Mekelweg 4, 2628 CD Delft The Netherlands http://ce.et.tudelft.nl/ MSc THESIS Exploiting the Reconfigurability of ρ-VEX Processor for Real-Time Robotic Applications Muhammad Muneeb Yousaf Abstract Autonomous mobile robots generally have limited computational power on-board, and they have to perform their tasks in real-time in order to interact with their surroundings effectively. Therefore, there is a need to utilize the available computational capabilities ef- ficiently. The ρ-VEX is a run-time reconfigurable VLIW processor. CE-MS-2016-10 This unique processor allows separation of its issue lanes to form independently operating processing cores. Switching between these configurations during run-time allows optimizing the computing re- sources for the task(s) it is performing. In this project FreeRTOS is ported to the ρ-VEX processor and a control layer is developed. FreeRTOS manages the applications based on given real time parameters. The control layer decides the number of active cores (hardware contexts) and issue width of each core to best match the processing requirements of the applications. In this way, FreeRTOS and the control layer together can reconfigure the number of active cores at run-time. This is a very unique feature of this thesis project and can not be found in any other multicore implementation of FreeRTOS. The control layer along with FreeR- TOS provides the user a facility to run applications under real-time constraints and with the best possible efficiency. In order to evaluate the performance, the overhead of the FreeRTOS is quantified and a performance comparison is made between several configurations of this system.

Mainstream Information Technology professionals have misunderstood the Pick environment for many years. The Pick environment has been conceived, designed and built with business solutions as its key driver. At its heyday there were over 3,000 business applications available across a very wide range of hardware platforms supporting from 1 to thousands of real time users. The tentative economic recovery of the 90’s and the Y2K fears created cautious and conservative corporate decision-making.

INSTITUTION Federal Library and Information Center Committee, Washington, DC. PUB DATE Apr 89 NOTE 41p. PUB TYPE Reference Materials - Directories/Catalogs (132) EDRS PRICE MF01/PCO2 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Computer Software; *Database Management Systems; Integrated Library Systems; Library Automation; *Library Technical Processes; Machine Readable Cataloging; *Microcomputers; *Online Catalogs; Optical Data Disks; Telecomanications; Union Catalogs ABSTRACT TL s catalog is a reference guide to microcomputer-based library software. It is noted that a CMBLS listing does not constitute a recommendation, as recommendations are not the policy of the FEDLINK (Federal Library and Information Network) Library Automation Resource Service, and that the catalog errs on the side of overinclusion to give the individual user many packages to explore on his/her own. Software is listed alphabetically under broad headings that indicate cecific areas of application: (1) Acquisitions; (2) Cataloging; (3) Circulation; (4) Interlibrary Loan; and (5) Serials CoKtrol. Multifunct_on software packages are listed separately under eacil function they are designed to perform. Library systems claiming to be integrated are listed under Integrated Library Systems as well as under each function they are designed to perform. Each entry includes the software publisher, name and version of the software package, date of its publication, address and telephone number of the publisher, and a brief description with a price listing. Instructions are given for submitting additions to the list or corrcztions to items in this catalog, which is produced from a regularly updated database.

  • Jargon File, Version 4.0.0, 24 Jul 1996
    JARGON FILE, VERSION 4.0.0, 24 JUL 1996 This is the Jargon File, a comprehensive compendium of hacker slang illuminating many aspects of hackish tradition, folklore, and humor. This document (the Jargon File) is in the public domain, to be freely used, shared, and modified. There are (by intention) no legal restraints on what you can do with it, but there are traditions about its proper use to which many hackers are quite strongly attached. Please extend the courtesy of proper citation when you quote the File, ideally with a version number, as it will change and grow over time. (Examples of appropriate citation form: "Jargon File 4.0.0" or "The on-line hacker Jargon File, version 4.0.0, 24 JUL 1996".) The Jargon File is a common heritage of the hacker culture. Over the years a number of individuals have volunteered considerable time to maintaining the File and been recognized by the net at large as editors of it. Editorial responsibilities include: to collate contributions and suggestions from others; to seek out corroborating information; to cross-reference related entries; to keep the file in a consistent format; and to announce and distribute updated versions periodically. Current volunteer editors include: Eric Raymond [email protected] Although there is no requirement that you do so, it is considered good form to check with an editor before quoting the File in a published work or commercial product. We may have additional information that would be helpful to you and can assist you in framing your quote to reflect not only the letter of the File but its spirit as well.
