Want to safely test RTR designs
Traditional simulators lack RTR support
Provide more flexibility than traditional simulators
“Black box” nature of the configuration bitstream
Design to bitstream translation is error prone
Did we get what we wanted?
A Java API to configure Xilinx FPGA bitstream
Provides complete design control
Routing
CLB configuration
Supports run-time reconfiguration
Allows for tools to be built upon it
Example low-level configuration call:
jBits.Set(row, col, S1F1.S1F1, S1F1.SINGLE_EAST0) ....etc

ABSTRACT

Existing SoC debug techniques mainly target bus-based systems. They are not readily applicable to the emerging system that use Network-on-Chip (NoC) as on-chip communication scheme. In this paper, we present the detailed design of a novel debug probe (DP) inserted between the core under debug (CUD) and the NoC. With embedded configurable triggers, delay control and time stamping mechanism, the proposed DP is very effective for inter-core transaction analysis as well as controlling embedded cores' debug processes. Experimental result ....etc

INTRODUCTION: HISTORY OF THE PROJECT
Initial discussion on the collaborative effort to develop Cell began with support from CEOs from the Sony and IBM companies: Sony as a content provider and IBM as a leading-edge technology and server company. Collaboration was initiated among SCEI (Sony Computer Entertainment Incorporated), IBM, for microprocessor development, and Toshiba, as a development and high-volume manufacturing technology partner. This led to high-level architectural discussions among the three companies during t ....etc

INTRODUCTION

Today's microprocessors sport a general-purpose design which has its own advantages and disadvantages.

Adv: One chip can run a range of programs. That's why you don't need separate computers for different jobs, such as crunching spreadsheets or editing digital photos
Disadv: For any one application, much of the chip's circuitry isn't needed, and the presence of those wasted circuits slows things down.

Suppose, instead, that the chip's circuits could be tailored specifically for the problem at hand--say, computer-ai ....etc

ABSTRACT
Chameleon chips are chips whose circuitry can be tailored specifically for the problem at hand. Chameleon chips would be an extension of what can already be done with field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAS). An FPGA is covered with a grid of wires. At each crossover, there's a switch that can be semipermanently opened or closed by sending it a special signal. Usually the chip must first be inserted in a little box that sends the programming signals. But now, labs in Europe, Japan, and the U.S. are developing techniq ....etc

LINE FOLLOWING ROBOT

Introduction

What is a line follower?
Line follower is a machine that can follow a path. The path can be visible like a black line on a white surface (or vice-versa) or it can be invisible like a magnetic field.
Why build a line follower?
Sensing a line and maneuvering the robot to stay on course, while constantly correcting wrong moves using feedback mechanism forms a simple yet effective closed loop system. As a programmer you get an opportunity to Ëœteachâ„¢ the rob ....etc

ABSTRACT
Automotive vehicles are increasingly being equipped with collision avoidance and warning systems for predicting the potential collision with an external object, such as another vehicle or a pedestrian. Upon detecting a potential collision, such systems typically initiate an action to avoid the collision and/or provide a warning to the vehicle operator.
This system consist of a distance-measuring system based on ultrasonic sound utilizing the PIC 16f877A microcontroller and transmits a burst of ultras ....etc

MULTISENSOR STRATEGIES TO SUPPORT BLIND PEOPLE: A CLEAR-PATH INDICATOR
Abstract :
The development of electronic sensing devices for the visually impaired requires knowledge of the needs and abilities of this class of people. In this project we present a rough analysis that can be used to properly define the criteria to be adopted for the design of such devices. In particular, attention will be focused on clear-path indicators, highlighting their role in orientation and mobility tasks. A new device belonging to this class i ....etc
