Reconfigurable computing offers the embedded systems designers the flexibility of application specific optimizations on a generic platform. In this paper, we are concerned with a fine-grain, tightly coupled, dynamically reconfigurable architecture we call Adaptive EPIC. A generic EPIC architecture is augmented with a dynamically reconfigurable structure. In this paper, we describe an experiment...

Aims. We describe in detail the nature of XMM-Newton EPIC background and its various complex components, summarising the new findings of the XMM-Newton EPIC background working group, and provide XMM-Newton background blank sky event files for use in the data analysis of diffuse and extended sources. Methods. Blank sky event file data sets are produced from the stacking of data, taken from 189 o...

The epic decasyllable is a traditional South Slavic folk metrical form.
