Learn to use the Arduino boards to do big jobs in a simple way. This book is full of real-world examples for Arduino enthusiasts of all experience levels. All of the examples in this book use Arduino UNO, which is an excellent option for educational purposes. You'll start with an introduction to Arduino and see firsthand how its free multi-platform integrated development environment (IDE) makes coding easier. In many cases, you can edit the given codes to solve your own problems. ¿Arduino boards use a variety of microcontrollers and each board is suitable for a specific application. The Arduino IDE is also preloaded with a broad library of codes that you can modify and practice with. So instead of coding from scratch you can adjust the codes for similar projects. More experienced users will save time by simply copying nuggets of code from the various libraries.You'll also learn about digital input/output (I/O), analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters, LCDs and EEPROM. The book then moves on to serial communication, mathematical functions, and pulse width modulation (PWM), all important features when encoding in telecommunications. Finally, you'll see how to control different types of motors, review interrupts, internal comparators, and timers, and read different sensors with Arduino.What You Will LearnTurn on/off a device using a relayGenerate analog/digital outputRead an analog/digital inputControl motors with a parallel virtual machine (PVM) and serial communicationDisplay text with LCDsRead sensors with Arduino and use the interruptsWrite more efficient codes with interrupts and timersWho This Book Is ForEngineering (electrical/computer/biomedical/robotic/mechatronics/aerospace) and science (math/physic/chemistry) students, makers, and hobbyists.

Dieses Buch beschreibt eine neue, grobkörnige rekonfigurierbare Architektur (CGRA), genannt Blocks, und stellt sie in den Kontext von Computerarchitekturen und insbesondere von anderen CGRAs. Das Buch beginnt mit einer ausführlichen Bewertung historischer und bestehender CGRAs und deren Stärken und Schwächen. Dies führt auch zu einem besseren Verständnis und einer neuen Definition dessen, was CGRAs von anderen Architekturansätzen unterscheidet.Die Autoren stellen Blocks als einzigartig vor, da es über separate programmierbare Steuer- und Datenpfade verfügt, so dass leichtgewichtige Befehlsdekodiereinheiten über eine statisch konfigurierte Verbindung beliebig mit einer oder mehreren Funktionseinheiten (FUs) verbunden werden können. In der Diskussion wird erläutert, wie Architekturen modelliert werden können, was zu einem Flächen- und Energiemodell für Blöcke führt. Die Genauigkeit dieses Modells wird anhand vollständig implementierter Architekturen bewertet, wobei sich zeigt, dass die Fehlerspanne sehr akzeptabel ist, obwohl es um drei Größenordnungen schneller ist als die Synthese. Das Buch schließt mit einer Fallstudie zu einem echten System-on-Chip, einschließlich einer RISC-Architektur, der Blocks CGRA und Peripheriegeräten.

The developments in mesh generation are usually driven by the needs of new applications and/or novel algorithms. The last decade has seen a renewed interest in mesh generation and adaptation by the computational engineering community, due to the challenges introduced by complex industrial problems.Another common challenge is the need to handle complex geometries. Nowadays, it is becoming obvious that geometry should be persistent throughout the whole simulation process. Several methodologies that can carry the geometric information throughout the simulation stage are available, but due to the novelty of these methods, the generation of suitable meshes for these techniques is still the main obstacle for the industrial uptake of this technology.This book will cover different aspects of mesh generation and adaptation, with particular emphasis on cutting-edge mesh generation techniques for advanced discretisation methods and complex geometries.
