High reliability and nonvolatile antifuse technology make Actel RTAX-S the FPGA of choice for space designers. As correct functionality of such designs is crucial, prototyping becomes an important step of the verification flow. As RTAX-S FPGAs are one-time programmable, prototyping can become challenging. This paper provides an overview and comparison of the existing approaches to prototyping of Actel RTAX-S FPGAs.

This paper presents a method to design a kind of power supply (PS) using PID (Proportional, Integral, and Derivative) controller. AVR microcontroller, atmega16 has been used in designing PS. Nowadays most of industrials systems use microcontrollers. PS is the integral part in each of them. A good idea is using these processors in order to generate the needed power for other parts of the systems. Especially the appearance of microcontroller with too many facilities such as; timer, counter, interrupt, and so forth can help to use them more effectively. PID controllers are used widely in industry and they have proved their helpfulness. Designed PS uses digital PID that has been designed with too many facilities in AVR microcontroller. This kind of PS is in small size. Likewise, it can be compacted to be used in portable devices such as mobile or lap top chargers. Their efficiency is higher than usual linear power supplies. It will be more effective for systems with high demanded power rather than with low power, because in high level power there is no need to use transformer and the whole size of the system will be reduced.
本文提出了一种采用比例、积分、导数PID (Proportional, Integral, and Derivative)控制器设计电源的方法。AVR单片机、atmega16单片机已被应用于PS的设计中,目前大多数工业系统都采用单片机。PS是每一个的积分部分。一个好主意是使用这些处理器来为系统的其他部分产生所需的电力。特别是单片机的出现带有太多的设施如;计时器、计数器、中断等等可以帮助更有效地使用它们。PID控制器在工业中得到了广泛的应用,并证明了它的实用性。设计的PS采用了AVR单片机中设计了太多功能的数字PID。这种PS是小号的。同样,它可以被压缩到便携式设备中,如移动或笔记本电脑充电器。其效率高于一般的线性电源。它将更有效的系统与高需求的功率,而不是低功率,因为在高水平的功率,不需要使用变压器,整个系统的大小将会减少。

The problem of synthesis of the self-testing checker for arbitrary l code words of (m, n)-code is considered. In particular, the problem of representation of number l by the sum of cardinal numbers of subsets of the code words corresponding to essential subtrees of the tree representing all code words of (m, n)-code is investigated. The properties such essential subtries are described.

This paper presents a method to design a smart circuit to interface with some protocols such as RS232, USB, CAN, and the most important of all: Ethernet. The main feature in the designed circuit is using Real Time Operating System (RTOS) on ARM series 32-bit processors: LPC2478. Compared with the customary ways to control and data acquisition, the device based on the embedded system offers better features and flexibility, with an overall design for reliability, durability and ease of installation. This paper has illustrated hardware architecture and real time multi-task software process based on μC/OS-II. There are too many usages for such designed system in control and data acquisition systems. Especially, in network interfaces with different protocol layers, it can be used as a smart gateway or router and so forth. As a proof of concept, a simple system was designed to test the designed circuit.

Consider the possibility reducing the iteration value in building complete validation tests for digital devices. Building a test for a given fault is reduced to searching the terminal node in the signals assignment tree. The reducing is achieved by accumulating and using of information about dead-end conditions to avoid similar situations in the earlier stages. Allows any faults that can be described by logical functions.

This paper presents definitions characterizing the concepts regarding cyber-physical systems and dependability. Cyber-physical systems incorporate computing, communication and storage capabilities with monitoring and/or control of entities in the physical world in a dependably, securely, efficiently and real-time way. The challenges of cyber-physical system research are concerning: real-time system abstractions; robustness, safety and security; QoS composition; and nor least dependability. Dependability is first introduced as a global concept that subsumes the usual attributes of reliability, availability, safety, integrity and maintainability. The paper aims to define research challenges to achieve the dependability in cyber-physical hydropower systems. The significant challenge of the dependability in cyber-physical hydropower systems is evaluation of the system behavior in terms of interdependencies between cyber and physical components of the system.
