Design of Embedded Systems Using 68hc12/11 Microcontrollers, 1st edition
Authors: Richard E. Haskell, Haskell Richard E.
Venue:  (1999)

:FEATURES/BENEFITS A bridge between the 68HC12 and the 68HC11Focuses on the 68HC12, but includes material for (and provides software for) the older 68HC11. A new version of ForthWHYP (Words to Help You Program)designed for use in embedded systems&#151WHYP can easily be installed on any 68HC12 system, including the most popular development boards from Motorola and Axiom Manufacturing. It consists of two parts-some 68HC12 subroutines that reside on the target system (typically an evaluation board) and a C++ program that runs on a PC and communicates with the 68HC12 target system through a serial line. It is a sub-routine threaded language, which means that WHYP words are just the names of 68HC12(11) subroutines. New WHYP words can be defined simply by stringing previously defined WHYP words together. The first five chapters of the text explain how to make the programming of the 68HC12 simple and interactive, and in the process develops the entire WHYP language from scratch, step by step. (The software is provided on disk with the text, and the latest versions of the software will be available on the author's web site.) An abundance of worked examples and many chapter-end exercisesRanges from simple reinforcing exercises to complete term projects. Some suggest significant design projects using some of the latest peripheral chips with references to specific web sites where data sheets can be obtained. Users can see examples of complete designs and have quick references to data sheet URLs. A detailed description of the new 68HC12 multiplication and divisioninstructions. Users can use the easier method (WHYP, Forth) for doing arithmetic, rather than using assembly language. A chapter on Fuzzy ControlProvides a detailed description of fuzzy logic as well as a discussion of how to use the built-in 68HC12 fuzzy control instructions. Develops special WHYP words that make it easier to design a fuzzy controller. Complete C++ code for the WHYP host that runs on the PCProvided with the book and described in Chs. 16 and 17. Includes both the C++ program that runs on the PC, and the 68HC12 assembly language program that runs on the target 68HC12 board.

Fundamentals of Uncertainty Calculi with Applications to Fuzzy Inference
Authors: Michel Grabisch, Hung T. Nguyen
Venue:  (1994)

:This decade has witnessed increasing interest in fuzzy technology both from academia and industry. It is often said that fuzzy theory is easy and simple so that engineers can progress quickly to real applications. However, the lack of knowledge of design methodologies and the theoretical results of fuzzy theory have often caused problems for design engineers. The aim of this book is to provide a rigorous background for uncertainty calculi, with an emphasis on fuzziness. Fundamentals of Uncertainty Calculi with Applications to Fuzzy Inference is primarily about the type of knowledge expressed in a natural language, that is, in linguistic terms. The approach to modeling such knowledge is based upon the mathematical theory of uncertainty related to fuzzy measures and integrals and their applications. The book consists of two parts: Chapters 2 - 6 comprise the theory, and applications are offered in Chapters 7 - 10. In the theory section the exposition is mathematical in nature and gives a complete background on uncertainty measures and integrals, especially in a fuzzy setting. Applications concern recent ones of fuzzy measures and integrals to problems such as pattern recognition, decision making and subjective multicriteria evaluations.
Case-based tutoring in virtual education environments
Authors: Patrick M. Regan, Brian M. Slator
Venue: Proceedings of the 4th international conference on Collaborative virtual environments (2002)

Virtual education environments are gaining popularity as tools to enhance student learning. These environments are often used to allow students to experience situations that would be difficult, costly, or impossible in the physical world. North Dakota State University (NDSU) provides students with environments to enhance their understanding of geology (Planet Oit), cellular biology (Virtual Cell), retailing (DollarBay), and history (Blackwood). In order to maximize the learning potential of each individual student, an ideal environment needs to provide customized lessons to that student based on his or her individual performance. One method to address this requirement is the use of case-based reasoning which is used to monitor student performance, track progress throughout an environment, compare the student to other students in the same environment, and create customized tutor dialogs to communicate this information to the student in the form of individual tutor lessons. An example of case-based lesson building software that meets the above requirements can be observed in the current DollarBay retailing environment at NDSU.

Education
Authors: Bobby Schnabel
Venue: SIAM Review (2002)

There is a rich, enduring and fairly well known relationship between mathematics and music---for reasons that probably aren't fully understood, people interested and talented in mathematics often are interested and talented in music as well. Perhaps less well known is the connection between mathematical analysis and musical sound. The paper in this installment of the Education section explores this connection in a beautifully written manner. In "Time-Frequency Analysis of Musical Instruments," Jeremy Alm and James Walker show the connection between musical frequency, or pitch, and several methods of analysis. Fourier analysis is the basic method for expressing the sound from individual notes, but more sophisticated methods are used to capture the sound from a musical passage consisting of several notes. After reviewing the applicability of Fourier transforms, fast Fourier transforms, and discrete Fourier transforms to the expression of musical frequency, the article discusses the uses of two additional techniques, spectrograms and scalograms, for describing the time-frequency behavior of musical passages. Scalograms are based upon the mathematical theory of wavelets. Thus this paper would be an excellent addition to courses or units on Fourier analysis and/or wavelets. It includes many nice examples and figures, and can be supplemented by software available on the Web that contains copies of the sound recordings discussed in the article (from piano, flute, and guitar) and that allows readers to both hear and analyze these recordings. This article should be a valuable applied mathematics module and provide one more link in the time-honored partnership between music and mathematics.

High resolution weather modeling for improved fire management
Authors: Kevin Roe, Duane Stevens, Carol McCord
Venue: Proceedings of the 2001 ACM/IEEE conference on Supercomputing (CDROM) (2001)

A critical element to the accurate prediction of fire/weather behaviour is the knowledge of near-surface weather. Weather variables, such as wind, temperature, humidity and precipitation, make direct impacts on the practice of managing prescribed burns and fighting wild fires. State-of-the-art Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP), coupled with the use of high performance computing, now enable significantly improved short-term forecasting of near-surface weather at a 1-3 km grid resolution.This proof of concept project integrates two complementary model types to aid federal agencies in real-time management of fire. (1) A highly complex, full-physics mesoscale weather prediction model (MM5) which is applied in order to estimate the weather fields up to 72 hours in advance. (2) A diagnostic fire behavior model (FARSITE) takes the near-surface weather fields and computes the expected spread rate of a fire driven by wind, humidity, terrain, and fuels (i.e. vegetation).

Visualising 1,051 visual programs module choice and layout in the Nord Modular patch language
Authors: James Noble, Robert Biddle
Venue: Proceedings of the 2001 Asia-Pacific symposium on Information visualisation - Volume 9 (2001)

The Nord Modular music synthesiser system comprises a standalone array of digital signal processors programmed by a dataflow visual langauage and supported by a visual programming environment that runs on commodity hardware. A crucial difference between the Nord Modular and traditional modular synthesizers is that each Nord module can be positioned individually, whereas physical analogue signal processing units are typically installed in fixed racks. We have used information visualisation techniques to investigate the layouts and programming style of 1,051 Nord Modular programs. We found that although modules could be positioned freely within a program, particular types of modules were generally found in sterotypical locations.

APL Based medical image analysis
Authors: Tilman P. Otto
Venue: Proceedings of the international conference on APL-Berlin-2000 conference (2000)

Ophthalmology (eye care) is an important medical discipline. Since 1961 the representation of the ocular vascular system using fluorescence dyes has been one of the most important methods used in the diagnosis of diseases of the human eye. The recently introduced laser scanning systems allows fast and continuous imaging of the complete inflow of dye into the vascular system. With the aid of APL as a well-suited image analysis tool it is now possible to analyze these image sequences to extract diagnostic relevant blood flow parameters. During the image acquisition there are unavoidable eye movements which render the automatic follow up of a specific area over time more difficult. Therefore a method has been developed to robustly analyze the eye movements. Beside the determination of the filling delay, i.e. the time of dye appearance for every point, the filling time has been measured. Result images will be presented for two different cases. A slightly modified algorithm is able to automatically compose a panoramic wide-angle retinal image out of partially overlapping single images. The APL system itself (called APL2C) and the algorithms for the image processing have been developed by the author and are not commercially available.

The consolidated help desk
Authors: Richard Kirchmeyer
Venue: Proceedings of the 30th annual ACM SIGUCCS conference on User services (2002)

At Western Kentucky University we have nine different help desks for our various campus users to call - depending on where the problem is, what the problem is, and/or the time of day the problem occurs. In September 2001, a committee within the IT division was established to recommend a consolidation of these efforts. The committee finished its work in December 2001, and presented its findings [1]. This paper will outline the 10 recommendations made by the committee, the modifications to those recommendations, and the steps taken to implement a consolidated help desk function on campus. Following a presentation of the key points, a discussion with the session participants will cover the more practical sides of such a consolidation implementation.
Equally Spaced Polynomials, Dual Bases, and Multiplication in F2^n
Authors: Dieter Gollmann
Venue: IEEE Transactions on Computers (2002)

A recently proposed multiplier for finite fields given by equally spaced polynomials is based on the transformation from the polynomial basis to its dual basis, combined with multiplication by a constant. We classify the constants that are optimal regarding the cost of this operation and investigate the cost of the inverse transformation.
Linux Security Howto
Authors: Kevin Fenzi, Dave Wreski
Venue:  (2000)

:In the ever-changing world of global data communications, inexpensive Internet connections, and fast-paced software development, security is becoming more and more of an issue. Security is now a basic requirement because global computing is inherently insecure. As your data goes from point A to point B on the Internet, for example, it may pass through several other points along the way, giving other users the opportunity to intercept, and even alter, the data. Even other users on your system may maliciously transform your data into something you did not intend. Linux Security HOWTO is a general overview of security issues that face the administrator of Linux systems. It covers general security philosophy and a number of specific examples of how to better secure your Linux system from intruders. Also included are pointers to security-related material and programs. Improvements, constructive criticism, additions and corrections are gratefully accepted.
Intelligent agents: some ethical issues and dilemmas
Authors: Carolyn Dowling
Venue: Selected papers from the second Australian Institute conference on Computer ethics (2000)

Not so long ago, intelligent software agents belonged in the realms of speculation and esoteric research. Today, like it or not, they are an important part of our everyday lives online. Characteristics commonly acknowledged as desirable include a degree of anthropomorphism or personification, the ability to learn from experience and consequently to respond flexibly to new situations, the capacity to interact both with users and with other agents, and a significant measure of autonomy in the pursuit of goals.The widespread implementation of agent based systems raises a number of issues that have clear ethical, even moral dimensions. While the image of an 'agent' may suggest that the technology is under the control of the user, the metaphor is less straightforward than it appears, and the confidence and security it engenders may sometimes be misplaced.Implicit in our understanding of the concept of agency is the notion of delegation. Important ethical aspects of this concept include the balance between autonomy and control, and questions related to trust, responsibility and privacy. While the 'usefulness' of agents in achieving certain outcomes is undeniable, this utility perhaps comes at a certain cost that we may or may not consider acceptable.Through consideration of our experiences of agents both in the physical world and online, this paper explores some of the ethical issues arising from the widespread implementation of intelligent agents within computer based environments
