Nowadays, it’s rare for malicious hackers to rely on just one exploit or tool; instead, they use “chained” exploits that integrate multiple forms of attack to achieve...

The introduction of ultra-fast communication systems based on all-optical signal processing is considered to be one of the most promising ways...

Dr Donald Bailey starts with introductory material considering the problem of embedded image processing, and how some of the issues may be solved using parallel hardware solutions. Field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) are introduced as a technology that provides flexible, fine-grained hardware that can readily exploit parallelism within...

The push to move products to market as quickly and cheaply as possible is fiercer than ever, and accordingly, engineers are always looking for new ways to provide their companies with the edge over the competition. Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs), which are faster, denser, and more cost-effective than traditional programmable logic...

The computer ushers us into the information age. Born a mere fifty years ago, it now exerts a profound influence on almost every facet of our lives. What is the nature of this machine? How does it work inside? How is it programmed internally? What are the nature of its connections to the outside world? These are the questions that this book...

High-Performance Computing using FPGA covers the area of high performance reconfigurable computing (HPRC). This book provides an overview of architectures, tools and applications for High-Performance Reconfigurable Computing (HPRC). FPGAs offer very high I/O bandwidth and fine-grained, custom and flexible parallelism and with the...

Wireless communication has become almost as ubiquitous as electricity, but RF design continues to challenge engineers and...
