This paper presents SW synthesis using Embedded System Environment (ESE), a tool set for design of multicore embedded systems. We propose a classification of multicore embedded systems based on their platform architecture. We identify key design decisions and models that are required for embedded system synthesis. We present a a model based design methodology that starts with an application mod...

The large amount of information on web has led to impossible accurate search and integration of the information. One of the attractive procedures for facing the redundancy of information is the Semantic Web (SW). So, to structuring the information, improving the searches and presenting the meaning of the information, a technology is needed to create relationship between the existing information...

Adult cane toads, B. marinus, survived in salinities up to 40% sea-water (SW). Pre-exposure to 30, then 40% SW, increased the survival time of toads in 50% SW. Plasma from toads acclimated to salt water is hyperosmotic to the environment--a result of increased plasma sodium, chloride and urea concentrations. When toads were placed in tap-water and 20% SW, all significant changes to plasma sodiu...

The Tsw gene conferring dominant resistance to the Tospovirus Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) in Capsicum spp. has been tagged with a random amplified polymorphic DNA marker and mapped to the distal portion of chromosome 10. No mapped homologues of Sw-5, a phenotypically similar dominant TSWV resistance gene in tomato, map to this region in C. annuum, although a number of Sw-5 homologues are f...

This paper presents a distributed hardware/software cosimulation environment for heterogeneous systems pro-totyping applied to an industrial application. The environment provides following features: distributed Hw/Sw cosimulation, automatic Hw/Sw interface generation, Hw elements can be described at different levels of abstraction and generic/specific Sw debuggers can be used. Starting from a b...

We in this paper propose a software TransactionLevel Modeling (TLM) approach to co-simulate HW/SW efficiently. To keep the concurrency in the simulated system, timing synchronization should be considered carefully in HW/SW co-simulation between hardware and software simulations. Nevertheless, improper timing synchronization leads to either poor simulation performance or inaccurate simulation re...

The current trend in Embedded Systems (ES) design is moving towards the integration of increasingly complex applications on a single chip. An Embedded System has to satisfy both performance constraints and cost limits; it is composed of both dedicated elements, i.e. hardware (HW) components, and programmable units, i.e. software (SW) components, Hardware (HW) and software (SW) components have t...

Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) is a widely used dependability and safety technique aiming at systematically identifying failure modes, their causes, their effects, and the countermeasures that could mitigate their impact. Although FMEA has been thought for hardware, its use is also advocated for software (SW-FMEA). However, this involves several major hurdles such as the complexity of...

The emergence of Semantic Web (SW) and the related technologies promise to make the web a meaningful experience. Yet, high level modeling, design and querying techniques proves to be a challenging task for organizations that are hoping utilize the SW paradigm for their industrial applications, which are still using traditional database techniques. To address such an issue, in this paper, we pro...

The morphological, biological, biochemical, and karyotypic characteristics of four human bladder transitional cell carcinoma lines, SW-780, SW-800, SW-1738, and SW-1710, were investigated. In tissue culture, each cell line presented a distinct phenotypic expression. All but line SW-1710 grew when transplanted in the nude mouse. Light and electron microscopic studies showed morphological charact...
