Explores embedded microtechnical systems through case studies in mobile robotics, sensor networks, acceleration monitoring, and vision for automatic detection.
Introduces Parallel Prefix Adders, a systematic approach to designing optimized adder architectures with various types like RCA, Sklansky, Brent Kung, Kogge Stone, and CIA.
Explores memory consistency, coherence, weak consistency, and sequential consistency, emphasizing the importance of language-level consistency and data race-free programming.
