Introduction
to Verilog
Hardware
Description Languages (HDLs) use statements, like programming language
statements, in order to define, simulate, synthesize, and layout
hardware. One of the main HDLs is Verilog, a widely used and standardized
language. Verilog can be used to design anything from the most complex
ASIC to the least complex PAL. As ASICs and FPGAs become more complex,
HDLs become a necessity for their design. This course teaches how
to use Verilog to design and simulate hardware. It begins by explaining
the benefits of HDLs over other design entry methods, including
its ability to model different levels of abstraction, its reusability,
and documentability. Next, the syntax of the Verilog language is
explained in detail. By the end of the course, you will be able
to design and simulate real hardware using Verilog.

Designing
with FPGAs and CPLDs
Choose
the right programmable logic devices with this guide to the technologies
and internal architectures of Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs)
and Complex Programmable Logic Devices (CPLDs). Engineers will learn
about important design, verification, synthesis, and testing issues
as well as the different Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools
available. Engineering managers can use the step-by-step Universal
Design MethodologyTM (UDM) to optimally allocate resources
and manpower and to accurately schedule and budget the development
process. The result is a working, reliable chip.

Verilog Designer's
Library
Why
start coding from scratch when you can work from this library of
pre-tested routines, created by an HDL expert? There are plenty
of introductory texts to describe the basics of Verilog, but Verilog
Designer's Library is the only book that offers real, reusable routines
that you can put to work right away. Verilog Designer's Library
organizes Verilog routines according to functionality, making it
easy to locate the material you need. Each function is described
by a behavioral model to use for simulation, followed by the RTL
code you'll use to synthesize the gate-level implementation. Extensive
test code is included for each function, to assist you with your
own verification efforts.
Coverage
includes:
- Essential
Verilog coding techniques
-
Basic building blocks of successful routines
-
State machines and memories
-
Practical debugging guidelines
Although
Verilog Designer's Library assumes a basic familiarity with Verilog
structure and syntax, it does not require a background in programming.
Beginners can work through the book in sequence to develop their
skills, while experienced Verilog users can go directly to the routines
they need. Hardware designers, systems analysts, VARs, OEMs, software
developers, and system integrators will find it an ideal sourcebook
on all aspects of Verilog development.
The
CD-ROM includes all of the Verilog code from the book.

Horror
Flick
Horror
Flick, the novel, is about a grade-Z movie called, of course, "Horror
Flick." This film's star is Reva Trantini, a peer of Chaney,
Lugosi, and Karloff, who died mysteriously during filming. Now his
spirit resides in the film and feeds on the lives of its eclectic
viewers.
Horror Flick's hero is Brent Wooden, a Clint Eastwood-type, macho
detective who is more at ease with deranged killers than evil, demon-possessed
material objects. His assistants in this case include Buttonwillow
McKittrick, a hippie, brainy, yet peculiarly seductive psychic,
Roger Herman, an ultra-low budget film maker with an ultra-high
budget ego, and Billy Bob Henson, a film critic with his nose pointed
permanently skyward.
Horror
Flick is populated with lots of other bizarre and interesting characters,
all of whom come into contact with the film, few of whom survive.
Brent Wooden follows the string of gruesome and bizarre deaths,
hoping to catch this evil spirit and stop it before the film's nationally
scheduled broadcast. Will he do it? Will the nation fall victim
to the worst catastrophe since disco dancing? Will Brent and Buttonwillow
fall in love and live happily ever after? Read the book and find
out.
Horror
Flick is not to be confused with a serious horror novel, a serious
mystery novel, a serious romance novel, or any serious work of fiction.
It's a fun, satirical romp with lots of elements from lots of genres.

The Amazing
Adventure of Edward and Dr. Sprechtmachen
Edward
is a young boy who likes to collect old, strange things. One day,
Edward sees an alluring contraption to add to his collection. But
it's sitting in the back yard of a strange little man who lives
nearby. Edward sneaks into the yard, where he is caught by the man,
Dr. Sprechtmachen, an inventor of strange gizmos. They become friends
and Edward helps Dr. S build an experimental rocket ship.
One
evening, Edward gets into a fight with his parents and runs away
to Dr. S's house. There, he accidentally starts up the rocket and
the two of them blast off for Pluto where they meet wonderful, purple
jelly-like creatures. These Plutacians treat Edward and Dr. S as
heroes, until they inadvertently start a war between two groups
of people on Pluto -- one group has their antenna on the right side
of their heads, while the other group has their antenna on the left.
Edward
and Dr. S must come up with a plan to stop the war. The story becomes
filled with goofy characters, exciting spaceship chases, suspenseful
anticipations, secret meetings in dimly lit rooms, and a Romeo and
Juliet type love affair, all against a backdrop of preparations
for global war on Pluto. In the end, our heroes stop the war by
demonstrating, in their own unique way, just how silly prejudice
can be.
Edward
and Dr. S finally get enough fuel to blast off back to earth. They
make their teary goodbyes. Back on earth, Edward is a different
person. He stands up to the other kids when they tease him. He treats
people of all kinds with goodwill. And he comes to realize that
strangers are not always so strange.
