  • Meet the Eee PC
    Chapter 1 Meet the Eee PC In This Chapter ▶ Not your average laptop ▶ Popular Eee PC misconceptions ▶ Reviewing Eee PC models ▶ Selecting an Eee PC ▶ Purchasing an Eee PC his chapter introduces you to the ASUS Eee PC. (Eee PC is pronounced Twith a single E, not multiple EEEs, as in “Eeek, a mouse!”) If you’re won- dering where all those Es came from, it’s from a marketing campaign that states the computer is “Easy to learn, easy to work, and easy to play.” In this chapter, I tell you what the Eee PC is — and just as important, what it isn’t. I then list available models, describe their specifications, and conclude by giving you tips on selecting and purchasing an Eee PC. Eee PC: Not Your Average Laptop The Eee PC (see Figure 1-1) has been called a mini-laptop, a subnotebook, a Mobile Internet Device (MID), and a netbook (a catchy marketing buzzword for small, Internet-centric laptops). Whatever you call it, the Eee PC is a shrunk- down, lightweightCOPYRIGHTED laptop that has these keyMATERIAL features: ✓ Small — At just a bit over two pounds and roughly the size of this book, the 7-inch and 8.9-inch screen models are designed to be go-anywhere, do-anything personal computers. To fit in such a small package, keys on the Eee PC are smaller than those found on a typical laptop keyboard — right around 83 percent of normal. After you get used to the small size it’s possible to touch type with some practice.

Abstract: - In this paper, Embedded Real-time video monitoring system based on ARM is designed, in which the embedded chip and the programming techniques are adopted. The central monitor which adopts S3C6410 chip as controller is the core of the whole system. First, USB camera video data are collected by the embedded Linux system, processed, compressed and transferred by the processing chip. Then, video data are sent to the monitor client by wireless network. Tests show the presented wireless video surveillance system is reliable and stable. And it has a perfect application prospects with real-time monitor. Keyword: - Video Capture, Video compression, video streaming, server, Embedded Linux I. INTRODUCTION The Video surveillance [1] systems play an increasingly important role to maintain social security. It has been widely used in many fields, such as finance, public security, banking, and home. Traditional video surveillance can generally achieve close distance monitoring, by using the PC as a monitor host, monitor host connected monitor camera with coaxial cable. With the development of IT technology, especially the rapid development in embedded CPU of the open Linux systems, video conferencing, remote monitoring, and mass data processing fields can apply the embedded technology. This embedded monitoring system to overcome the week points of the traditional video surveillance systems, such as complex structure, poor stability, and expensive cost.

Simultaneously, the club manager is alerted, allowing him to send her a video link of the architect’s renderings of the current renovation project which she reviews while waiting for a staff member (who has been alerted by the same per - sonal IP address system) to retrieve her clubs and golf cart. Once her golf cart arrives, the president accesses the club’s golf course map (updated real time to reflect the exact location of the tee mark - ers and hole locations for the day) and places her order for bottled water at holes 3, 8, and 12 (which the cart staff BY FRANK I.

  • Multicore Fact Sheet
    Multicore Fact Sheet Overview: TI multicore devices simplify the process of implementing multicore application-specific solutions by offering the tool set and supporting application expertise that customers need to win in their markets. • Customers can access both optimized homogeneous and heterogeneous architectures across a wide variety of end equipments that are supported by software, development environments, hardware tools and application knowledge. • Customers can improve system efficiency and performance while reducing the development complexity often associated with multicore implementations. • Customers will continue to save time to market and reduce their risk when implementing multicore solutions from TI by leveraging its twelve plus years of experience, leading silicon and partnerships. What is a multicore device? A multicore device has more than one programmable processor on the same silicon die. This can be either homogeneous with two or more of the same core, or heterogeneous with two or more different cores on the same die. Homogeneous solutions may either be synchronous in that all of the cores are running the same code or applications or asynchronous where each core may be running different portions of the code or different applications altogether. TI multicore solutions: TI offers several multicore architectures across a variety of product families, including TMS320™ DSPs, digital media processors based on DaVinci™ technology, MCUs, and OMAP™ technologies. These architectures span a wide variety of applications including automotive, industrial, medical, communications infrastructure, video, and wireless handsets. TMS320 multicore DSPs • TMS320VC5420/21: Two independent TMS320C54x™ DSP cores capable of core-to-core communications targeted for telecom applications. Processors provide one program memory bus, three data memory buses, arithmetic logic unit (ALU) for high degree of parallelism, application- specific hardware logic, on-chip memory, and additional on-chip peripherals.
